There are also many photo-taking spots. From an aerial perspective, the troglodyte courtyard looks like a neatly arranged chessboard, which is particularly shocking. The silhouette of the doorway is also very photogenic. At dawn and dusk, the sun shines, and the light and shadow interweave, and any shot is a blockbuster. It is also very interesting to capture the folk performances on the spot, and you can freeze many wonderful moments.
Super good, the boss lady is enthusiastic and straightforward. Simple and warm, it feels like home. It is very close to Shanzhou Dikengyuan, the boss is enthusiastic to pick us up, everything is the best arrangement. I will definitely come again to check in with my relatives in the future.

Hanguguan Historical and Cultural Tourism Area is located in Lingbao City, Sanmenxia City, Henan Province. It is a cultural tourist area that integrates military culture and Laozi culture. It has been rated as a national AAAA-level tourist attraction and one of the "50 Scenic Spots of the Yellow River in China".
Entering Hangu Pass, I encountered a performance held by a middle school, and the students were full of vigor. Back then, Laozi passed through Hangu Pass and was entangled by the pass commander Yin Xi. He had no choice but to write a 5,000-word article to get it over with. As a result, it was regarded as the "Tao Te Ching" by you, and regarded as a classic by Taoism. Hangu Pass was also regarded as the source of Taoism.

Follow the navigation directly and you can reach it. Tickets 30, half price 15, parking fee 5 yuan. The dam has a good view and a long embankment deep into the Yellow River. You can walk on the embankment or under the embankment to "Crystal Palace". The only thing that is not so good is that I hope there can be a security check instrument, which is better than everyone opening their own package to check.
Recently, I came to the Sanmenxia Dam Scenic Area. As soon as I entered the scenic area, the majestic dam came into view. It was like a giant dragon lying on the Yellow River. Standing on the top of the dam, the breeze blew on my face, and the Yellow River was rushing in the distance, making people feel the majestic power of nature. On the walls on both sides of the dam top, the process of dam construction and the poems of historical celebrities are recorded. Going down the steps, I came to Zhanggong Island, which is shaded by green trees. And the mainstay symbolizing the spirit of the Chinese nation stands in the middle of the river. No matter how the river washes, it is always firm and upright, which makes people respect it. This visit is really rewarding.
