We entered the park in the afternoon, so it wasn't crowded. Parking was convenient in the northwest area, and we parked directly in the surface parking lot. 🅿️ We walked down a main road and felt we were at the entrance to the scenic area. 😂 Who knew we'd have to walk through a long commercial district? It took about 30 minutes, and I had to walk on my own, which was a bit tiring with a child, and there wasn't much shade. Finally, we arrived at the entrance to the scenic area—Dragon Gate. The entire area is quite large, so we went to the West Hill section and hired a guide for 30 yuan per person. The guide was pretty good. At 6:40 pm, the lights suddenly came on, which was awe-inspiring. The Vairocana Buddha is still worth seeing, but carrying a child up 👶🏻 the 99 steps, not counting the other statues, was a bit tiring. Going up and down the steps with a stroller wasn't easy.
After viewing the Buddha, we rested by the river and had a bite to eat. It was a pleasant breeze, and I admired the many beautiful women taking photos. It was quite nice. I highly recommend it, as it's one of the four largest grottoes in China.
What a fantastic experience! Teacher Xiao Bing's unforgettable recounting of the millennia-old history of the grottoes was like a conversation across time and space! Teacher Xiao Bing's extensive knowledge and well-organized itineraries made the entire tour incredibly rewarding. The Longmen Grottoes are a monumental achievement in Chinese history and a treasure of Chinese culture. It's truly breathtaking! I hope more people will visit the grottoes, learn about them, and experience the unique beauty of Chinese culture!

I braved the scorching heat with my children for two days at Qingyuan. We had originally planned to spend three days there, but the weather wasn't kind. On our second visit, we were soaked halfway through and had to return home. The park was full of fun for the children. Despite the heat, the park provided plenty of cooling measures, including numerous trees and artificial sunshades. Fans were also installed in many areas, spraying water mist.
The scenic area covers over 600 mu (approximately 180 mu) of water, boasting over 100 ancient ships of various sizes, over 400 houses, and over 30,000 square meters of landscaped buildings. It forms a large-scale architectural complex imitating the Song Dynasty in the Central Plains. The Shangshan Gate and Rainbow Bridge, vividly depicted in the painting "Along the River During the Qingming Festival," showcase the splendor and grandeur of the Song Dynasty, earning praise for their "extraordinary grandeur and magnificent architecture."

The imperial gardens showcase architecture and culture from various dynasties. We're primarily interested in the beauty of the park's landscapes and winding paths. [The following appears unrelated and likely a translation error.]
The relationship between Tang Shuyu of the Jin Dynasty and King Wen, King Wu, and Duke Zhou...
We recommend learning more about the life of the Holy Virgin Liu E, perhaps exploring the fascinating story of the "Civet Cat Substituted for the Prince." Her life was truly remarkable. Let's examine the appearance of a Song Dynasty woman!
The flowers and trees are beautiful to look at, and the religious and cultural experience is also worthwhile.
The park and the Jin Temple are beautiful overall!
Arriving at Taiyuan Station 1, I took a direct bus to Jinci Park. Inside, I strolled through the park and then visited the Jinci Museum. For official admission, it's best to purchase tickets online in advance. As the park is crowded, the hostel is often packed with tour groups, so try to avoid them for easy photo opportunities. These are all precious treasures left by our ancestors. Although I'm not a professional archaeologist, I'm still fascinated by them and can't leave. Since I'm here, I decided to visit them several times to appreciate the ancient monuments from different perspectives.

Laojun Mountain, located in Luanchuan County, Luoyang City, Henan Province, is a renowned Taoist holy site and scenic spot. It is not only the main peak of the 800-li-long Funiu Mountain Range, but is also renowned for its profound Taoist cultural heritage and magnificent natural scenery. Formerly known as Jingshi Mountain, Laojun Mountain stands at an altitude of 2,217 meters. Due to its unique geographical location and rich history and culture, it is known as a sacred place of worship for Taoist believers in northern China.
The Ten-Li Painting Screen at Laojun Mountain is breathtakingly beautiful and absolutely worth a visit. The sea of clouds after the rain is even more breathtaking. Unfortunately, none of the supply points along the way offered hot water, even if you paid. Luckily, there was a large platform at the exit from the Ten-Li Painting Screen to the Golden Summit. There was a KFC, Luckin Coffee, Mixue Ice City, and fried chicken. It was clean and reasonably priced, so I was glad I didn't have to pay a lot for hot water and food.

I walked around several streets in Pingyao Ancient City and found it very lively. The main attractions are restaurants, local specialties, and travel photography. The combined ticket allows you to visit many attractions, but I couldn't do them all due to time constraints. I visited the County Government Office, the Banknote Museum, the Escort Bureau Museum, the Weapons Museum, the Confucian Temple, the City God Temple, and the city wall, which gave me a more systematic understanding of Pingyao Ancient City. I stayed in Pingyao for 2 nights and it would have been better to measure it on foot rather than just visit it in a hurry.
Pingyao Ancient City, with a history of over 2,800 years, is a place where you can experience the prosperity of Shanxi merchants, and every brick and tile tells a story. You can book a tour guide in the city, and take an electric car to save a lot of distance. Unfortunately, it rained that day, which was a bit disappointing.

What time can I redeem my silver bills for refrigerator magnets? I arrived at Hanyuan Pier at 3:20, and the security guard said the staff weren't at work yet. I went out for lunch and arrived just after 5:00, and they said they were off duty. I'm going to file a real-name complaint for being late and leaving early... It was still a lot of fun. The forging fire was indeed beautiful, and the complimentary Hanyuan and Eiffel Tower are also worth seeing.
Wansuishan Great Song Dynasty Martial Arts City is definitely worth a visit! After dinner in the afternoon, you can watch Wang Po's Matchmaking show, and then schedule an appointment to see the iron flower show. The next morning, you can return to the park for breakfast, watch and participate in various small performances, and then at 11 a.m., watch the large-scale live performance "Three Strikes on Zhujiazhuang." The 80 yuan ticket gives you unlimited entry to the park for three days, which is quite attractive!

It is so exquisite that I am speechless. I admire and respect the wisdom of the ancients, whether it is dustproof or structure, construction, or grasp of details, I am in awe.
Xiaoxitian Temple in Xi County, Shanxi Province. Black Myth: Wukong, China's first truly global AAA single-player action role-playing game, released on August 20, 2024, features 36 major filming locations across China, with this location being the most famous. Following the game's release, Xi County, Shanxi Province, a small, mostly unknown county, has been flooded with tourists... They spend two hours taking photos (no flash), glittering with the sight of the gods and Buddhas. This is a nationally protected cultural relic, illuminated only by natural light, from 7:30 AM to 10:00 AM daily. The earlier you go, the better; after 10 AM, the main hall becomes difficult to see.

I have been to so many places in China, but this is the only place I would give a full five-star rating. As a descendant of Henan people, I was deeply moved by the visit. When I was a child, my grandmother loved to make mixed flour buns for me. No matter how I ate them, they tasted bad. I couldn't understand why the older generation liked to eat this stuff. Now I know.
It is worth coming. One day is not enough. Every play is worth looking forward to. The actors here are very dedicated and dedicated. I can even see tears in their eyes. This is also the best managed scenic spot I have ever seen. It is clean and tidy. Every staff member is very serious and fully integrated into this environment. It is very good. I will watch it twice or even three times.

The tour guide spoke very well and was very patient. I learned a lot about the history of Qiao Family Courtyard. She asked questions and took photos as we walked. There were also elderly people present. The explanation, which was supposed to last from one to one and a half hours, stretched to two hours without any impatience. I was very happy.
The Qiao Family Compound is a famous residential complex in Shanxi Province, located in Qiaojiabao, Qi County. The family's fortune began with the first owner, Qiao Guifa, who, due to poverty, ventured out to explore the countryside. He made friends with fellow villagers and gradually built his fortune by selling tofu. The Qiao Family Compound boasts numerous exquisite brick and wood carvings, including a carp leaping over a dragon's gate and abundant grapes. The Qiao family's back garden is also quite impressive.

Qufu boasts the Confucius Temple, Confucius Mansion, and Confucius Cemetery. I drove all the way from Beijing with my nearly 80-year-old parents to visit. Admission is free for those over 60, so I give Shandong a big thumbs up for its cultural tourism. It fulfilled my parents' wish to see the sage's office and residence. Perfect!
There weren't many tourists when we went, so the experience was great. We booked a gold medal tour guide to take me with us, who explained the history of the Confucius Mansion and Temple in detail, and let us experience Confucian culture. I highly recommend this family trip!
