There is a tour bus in the visitor center that only goes to the gate about 1km away. I think it is good to walk in with good physical strength. When you arrive at the gate to check the ticket and enter the park, remember to enter the hospital. After you enter the hospital, the machine is explained to rent on the left, and the right is 200m. It is manual explanation. We chose manual explanation. The total price is divided into 3 kinds, according to personal ability. We only visited the Xishan side. A stone statue can be carved for 30 years, and we admire the skills and perseverance of ancient craftsmen. Seeing the sharing of netizens, it is also very beautiful at night, and I have the opportunity to come at night next time."Luoyang.Longmen Station/Municipal government>100km from Xi CountyHighlights: One of the four major grottoes of China and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Longmen Grottoes are a trove of 1000 years of Buddhist art treasures.
