I finally made it to Laojun Mountain, a place I'd been longing to visit! It was so beautiful! I never expected to find affordable Luckin Coffee, BaWangChaJi, Mixue Ice Cream, and even KFC on the mountain! It was so satisfying!!
The natural scenery of Laojun Mountain is truly exceptional, especially the breathtaking Ten-Mile Painting Screen. You can reach the entrance to the Ten-Mile Painting Screen by taking the first and second cable cars. Exiting the cable car station marks the official start of the Ten-Mile Painting Screen scenic area, the essence of Laojun Mountain's natural landscape. From the Ten-Mile Painting Screen, passing Mazong Ridge and Nantianmen, you can reach the Golden Summit Taoist Temple Complex. Reaching the Golden Summit Taoist Temple Complex under the blue sky and white clouds is even more magnificent; every snapshot is a masterpiece.

No spontaneous trip, just repeated plans. You watched the Shaolin martial arts performance, and I admired the thousand-year-old ginkgo trees. It felt so good to receive support. Arrived early at 10 am, no mountain climbing, no cable car, just a slow, leisurely stroll, stopping and going, eating and taking photos along the way. The 1500-year-old ginkgo trees could be photographed for over an hour. The red leaves at the summit are for those with stronger stamina to show off their skills!
Cute Jing was also very helpful, today you're the leaf-scattering prop master! [relaxed][relaxed] Unexpectedly high-energy sand play next to the Pagoda Forest, exceeding KPI! [666][666] The only downside: Commercialization and rip-offs abound →→ 100 yuan for a photo with the little monk? Or is it just a phone photo? [weak][weak] A bowl of noodles at a snack shop costs 25 yuan, a blatant rip-off? No hot water if you don't buy food? [weak][weak]
Amazing place! Reserve a full day and enjoy everything without rush!

The scenic area is very clean, the toilets have toilet paper, the service staff are very enthusiastic, there are not too many tourists, the scenery is very good, people with poor legs and feet can also go, there are buses, cable cars, slides, and not many steps to climb
The weather wasn't kind. After traveling over a thousand kilometers, I encountered a rainy day. The dense fog limited the view, which was quite a disappointment, but it also had a unique charm. The thick fog made the mountain scenery even more ethereal and mysterious. With so few tourists, it felt like exploring a fairyland. Besides the autumnal mountain scenery, the ancient architecture was also a highlight. The caisson murals on the eaves of the Yangtai Palace are unique in Henan Province. Even the Nantianmen and Ying'en Palace are worth seeing as ancient architectural masterpieces. Although it was the National Day holiday, there were no waiting times for the sightseeing buses and cable cars, and the other painless mountain climbing facilities were also sparsely populated. The experience was excellent.

This ancient city is worth a visit. It is the hometown of Tai Chi and has a history of more than 2,000 years. These attractions are all worth seeing. The combined ticket is very cost-effective and highly recommended!
The planning is so good now. I haven't been there in years, and I was completely blown away!
The facilities are much better, the activities are more interesting, and the environment is very clean. There are also many unique restaurants and places that young people like. It's quite good.

The Taihang Grand Canyon truly lives up to its reputation as a model of northern landscapes, seamlessly blending grandeur and elegance. Upon entering the scenic area, one is immediately awestruck by the imposing presence of its thousand-meter-high cliffs. The Zhangshiyan landform unfolds like a natural screen, its sheer rock walls bearing witness to millions of years of geological changes.
The most stunning aspect is the diversity of scenery that changes with every step: Peach Blossom Valley features a babbling brook that meanders through the red cliffs, creating a verdant gallery; Wangxiangyan's steep steps climb the cliff face, offering both thrilling adventure and breathtaking panoramic views; the Taihang Sky Road winds like a dragon, with each turn revealing a new viewing platform. When shrouded in mist, the mountains appear and disappear, resembling a long ink painting.
Autumn is the recommended season to visit, when the canyon is ablaze with color. The scenic area boasts excellent facilities and a well-designed loop route, but some sections are quite steep, so be sure to bring appropriate hiking gear. Here, the power of nature and human ingenuity blend perfectly, and a day trip can allow you to appreciate the essence of Taihang Mountain, making it an excellent choice for a short mountain and water tour.
The Taihang Grand Canyon Scenic Area comprises three sections: Peach Blossom Valley, Wangxiangyan, and Taihang Sky Road. Peach Blossom Valley is particularly outstanding, with its stunning canyon scenery comprised of streams, waterfalls, and boardwalks. Taihang Sky Road offers a scenic drive via shuttle bus, but the views from the several viewing platforms are only average. Wangxiangyan has no shuttle bus service; the entire route is on foot, clockwise. The first and second halves are unremarkable, with only the middle section, Wangxiang Waterfall, truly worth seeing! The Sky Ladder is definitely worth climbing!

Yuntai Mountain Scenic Area in Jiaozuo, Henan Province, boasts beautiful scenery and three main attractions. We spent a day and a half visiting Hongshixia, Xiaozhaigou, and Zhuyu Peak. To save time and energy when visiting Zhuyu Peak, we chose to take the Zhuyu Peak cable car up the mountain, then walked 2.8 kilometers to the Phoenix Peak Glass Skywalk, took the Phoenix Ridge cable car down the mountain, and stayed at the service area on the shore.
The three-day validity of the Yuntai Mountain ticket is definitely worthwhile. The mountains and waters here are beautiful, and staying at the service area makes it convenient to take the scenic shuttle bus, perfect for a leisurely visit. There are also many restaurants in the service area along the shore for convenience.

Baoquan Tourist Area was arguably the best scenic spot I experienced during my trip to Henan. It boasts beautiful scenery as well as thrilling and fun activities. The facilities within the scenic area are also quite complete, and the restrooms were surprisingly clean.
The scenic area is fantastic, with shuttle bus service and various activities to participate in, such as via ferrata and bungee jumping, which are charged separately but reasonably. You could easily spend a whole day there, but you should allow plenty of time. We arrived around 1 PM and didn't have enough time to enjoy the activities; it was just too cold at night.

The attraction itself is actually quite nice, but the management of the scenic area needs to be improved. I went during the summer vacation, and the queues were so long that you questioned your existence. There were queues for every small attraction, and each queue lasted for two hours. We hadn't even finished experiencing everything by the time the park was about to close. The management really needs to be improved!
It's worth a visit. The scenery is beautiful, the air is pleasant, and the sightseeing route is well-planned. If you are in good physical condition, I recommend taking Route B, which involves taking the elevator to the more challenging section, climbing to the Jade Emperor Palace, then taking the cable car down across the entire canyon, walking through the valley floor, and taking a boat to finish the tour. If you are not in good physical condition, take Route A, which is the opposite of Route B!
