Wanrong Feiyun Tower, located within the Dongyue Temple in Wanrong County, Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province, was built during the Zhengde reign of the Ming Dynasty. Together with the Yingxian Wooden Pagoda, it is known as the "South Tower and North Tower," a pinnacle of Chinese pure wooden architecture. Standing 23.19 meters tall, with three visible stories and five concealed floors, the tower is constructed without a single nail or rivet, relying solely on 345 sets of brackets and mortise and tenon joints. It appears to soar like a cloud, seemingly swirling through the air. Four towering cypress columns pierce the roof, while 32 eaves and corners are adorned with glazed tiles and warrior statues, embodying the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty and the sophistication of the Ming and Qing dynasties. A National Key Cultural Relic Protection Site, Feiyun Tower is not only a living example of ancient architectural craftsmanship but also a landmark of the Yellow River Cultural Belt, thanks to its remarkable appearance of being "half embedded in the clouds."

Yongji Wulao Peak is one of the 72 blessed places of Taoism. It is named after the Five Elders of the Five Directions who passed on the River Map and Luoshu to Emperor Shun. It is also the place where the founder Lu Dongbin practiced Taoism and ascended to heaven, so it is a Taoist holy place. The five peaks of Wulao Peak face the sky, and the mountain is majestic. The main peak, Yuzhu Jinding, is more than 1,800 meters above sea level. It is a pillar that supports the sky and overlooks all the mountains, which is spectacular.

[Yongle Palace Experience: Journey Through a Yuan-Century Taoist Art Hall] Visiting Yongle Palace in Ruicheng, Shanxi, is a truly breathtaking pilgrimage! Though tucked away in a small town, this Taoist temple, built during the Yuan Dynasty, is breathtaking with its unparalleled mural art and architectural style. 🌟 Highlights: 1. Treasure Murals: The "Chao Yuan Tu" in the Sanqing Hall is a pinnacle of Eastern art—286 deities, 4 meters high, dance in graceful robes, their cinnabar and azurite colors remaining dazzling even after 700 years. Standing within the hall, you can almost hear celestial music and experience the harmony between man and nature as captured by Yuan-Cheng painters. 2. Architectural Marvels: The monumental relocation of the palace in the 1950s for the Three Gorges Project adds to its legendary charm. Walking through the hip-and-gable roofed, Yuan-Cheng wooden structure, you can gaze upon the intricate mortise and tenon joints of the caisson ceiling, and every carved chiwen pattern speaks to the wisdom of the ancients. 3. Immersive Experience: The scenic area utilizes a dark-lighting system, making the details of the murals even more sacred under soft lighting. We recommend renting a guide (a great value at 20 yuan) to understand the subtle metaphors within the legendary story of Lü Dongbin. ⚠️ Notes: • Flash photography is strictly prohibited inside the temple. You can purchase the official album (198 yuan) to collect your own. • It is recommended to enter at 9:00 a.m. to avoid the midday tour group rush. • Combine this with a day trip to the Jiezhou Guandi Temple in southern Shanxi. The most profound feeling of this trip: While modern people are accustomed to fragmented visual stimulation, standing before these murals, the product of a lifetime of labor, I suddenly understood the meaning of "timeless aesthetic shock." Perhaps this is the meaning of cultural heritage: allowing us to connect with the Chinese nation's most magnificent artistic soul through the intersection of time and space.

On the weekend, I came to Yuncheng Salt Lake with anticipation. When I stepped into the scenic area, the view suddenly opened up, and a sparkling lake came into view. The lake water sparkled dazzlingly under the sunshine, as if it was a bright gem inlaid by nature on the earth. Walking along the lake, the lake water presents a unique color. Some places show a deep blue, like a miniature of the sea; some places are light green, as if they were gently painted by nature's brush. The salt crystals by the lake sparkled in the sun, like countless diamonds scattered on the shore, and they made a crisp sound when stepped on, which is quite interesting. I couldn't help but take off my shoes and step into the lake. The lake water was cool and clear, gently caressing my feet, bringing a touch of comfort. In the distance, some tourists were taking pictures, and some were playing by the salt lake, and laughter echoed over the lake. Yuncheng Salt Lake not only has charming natural scenery, but also contains rich historical and cultural heritage. Here, I seemed to travel through time and space, and felt the love and cherishment that people from ancient times to the present have had for this magical land. This trip to the salt lake brought me a lot of happiness and unforgettable memories, and also made me more in awe of the magic and greatness of nature.

The Li Family Courtyard is about kindness, the Qiao Family Courtyard is about fame, and the Wang Family Courtyard is about the courtyard. After visiting the Li Family Courtyard, I was deeply moved by the generations of philanthropy. The gate of Tongde Hall is well worth taking the time to examine in detail. If time permits, it's worth hiring a guide to learn more about the courtyard's history and architectural culture.

Even the bricks are inscribed with the words "loyalty and righteousness"—a stage dedicated to the performance of "A Thousand Miles Alone," and the stele pavilion is filled with messages from emperors of all dynasties: from Song Huizong to Kangxi, every one was a fan! No tricks here, only sincerity. Pilgrims kneel not before a statue, but before the unwavering Chinese spirit, unshaken by poverty and opulence, uncorrupted by wealth! Visit Yuncheng Guandi Temple and understand the unwavering spirit of a nation for five thousand years—because there are always those who would rather be true men than seek personal gain!

The ticket is 10 yuan, and you can actually climb the pagoda inside, and the eight floors inside are ancient pagodas from the Tang Dynasty, which are rare in China. Xinjiang Cultural Tourism is very good, and the parking lot is all free, which feels great.

The opening of the West Grotto of the Three Buddha Caves brought me back to Fusheng Temple. The quality of Shanxi's ancient architecture is undeniable, and I hope to protect this precious heritage left by our ancestors.
