Xiao Bing's explanation was very detailed and vivid. The whole experience was very good. He grasped the timing just right, just in time for the lights to be turned on at night. The explanation was very detailed and fully stimulated the emotions.
This itinerary was fantastic. After meeting in the morning, we headed straight to the Bruvis, which was a truly captivating shipwreck experience. We then visited the seaweed houses, Naxianghai, the lighthouse at Yuehai Park, and the large photo frame at Weihai Park. Hitting eight popular attractions in one day was truly worthwhile. Our guide, Dai, was professional and thorough, explaining everything in detail. The bus was clean, and the driver was reliable. The experience far exceeded our expectations.

Hukou Waterfall has long transcended being a natural spectacle; it is now considered a symbol of the Chinese nation's indomitable spirit and perseverance. Standing before it, one feels a surge of national pride.
Before you go, you know it's going to be spectacular; but only when you're there can you truly understand the awe it truly brings. When the thundering roar of water fills your ears, when the mist stirred up by the Yellow River soaks your clothes, and when the ground beneath your feet trembles slightly, you'll forget to take photos and just stare blankly, filled with endless awe at the power of nature. That feeling isn't just about beauty, but about grandeur. All the long journey, in that moment, feels incredibly worthwhile. This is a wonder unique in China, perhaps even the world, a place every Chinese person should experience once. A reminder: be sure to visit the "Dragon Cave" on the west side of the mountain to experience the upward-looking perspective; it's absolutely worth the price of admission!

Our family trip to Qingming Shanghe Park was a complete success! It's a perfect choice for a family outing. The kids were so engrossed in their play that they didn't want to leave, and we adults had a blast too.
The most impressive part was the live-action performances! The horsefight scene in "Yue Fei Challenges the Young Prince of Liang" was thrilling, with splashing water and booming cannons. The kids watched without blinking, and it was much more enjoyable than watching a movie. Performances run throughout the day, so there's no need to worry about missing out.
The NPCs in period costumes were incredibly professional. The peddlers pushing wheelbarrows and the patrolling soldiers actively interacted with the children. My kids followed a vendor selling candied haws for a long time, an immersive experience you rarely find at other scenic spots.
The children's play area is rich with activities, including swings, slides, and seesaws, all designed in ancient styles. It's both safe and fun. The kids spent the better part of the day there, completely freeing our hands.
Highly recommended for families with children. It's like a giant ancient theme park, and a day spent there is absolutely worth the price of admission! We're already planning a return visit.
The night is absolutely stunning! Qingming Shanghe Park at night is a must-see. It's truly breathtaking. The scenery is truly breathtaking and exquisite. It's like the heyday of the Song Dynasty. Everywhere is filled with singing and dancing. It's truly beautiful!
The NPCs are interactive, which is fantastic. It's definitely worth the wait. It feels really good!

This morning, we visited the Jin Temple, a famous scenic spot in Shanxi.
The Jin Temple and Jin Temple Park are integrated and encompassed by the park, though the park does not charge an entrance fee. The entrance fee is 80 yuan, which is neither expensive nor cheap, but acceptable.
The Jin Temple is filled with countless historical sites, pavilions, towers, bridges, and flowing water. My favorites were the Tang Dynasty locust trees and cypresses. These ancient trees, towering and vibrant, have witnessed the rise and fall of clouds and sunsets over the past thousand years. Things have changed dramatically.
Time was a bit tight, as we had to leave for Xi'an in the afternoon. I was still enjoying myself and looked forward to visiting again.
The scenery is nice, and I had a lot of fun with my children. It is a must-visit attraction in Taiyuan. I like it.

Pingyao Ancient City, known as a "living museum of the Ming and Qing dynasties," is renowned for its rich historical heritage and unique Shanxi merchant culture. The well-preserved county government offices, banks, residential courtyards, and market layout within the ancient city allow visitors to journey through time and touch the veins of 2,800 years of history. 1 The bluestone pavements, buildings with carved beams and painted rafters, and the ingenious layout of "turtle-back" streets and alleys not only demonstrate the agricultural civilization's desire for longevity, but also solidify the ritual order of "Zhou Li Kao Gong Ji" (Record of Craftsmen in the Book of Zhou). 12 The brick-carved plaques of the Rishengchang Bank and the Lingxing Gate of the Confucian Temple silently speak of the Shanxi merchants' ambition to "connect the world" and their adherence to Confucian culture.
The Pingyao Ancient City guide was excellent this time. He explained things in a straightforward manner, making them understandable to ordinary people. He explained everything from the origins of the old city wall to how the banks operated, to the unique charm of the old houses along the street. He patiently answered all my questions and didn't rush me. I felt much more enlightened after the tour, and it was worth the trip!

Wansui Mountain is well worth a visit. The ticket price is not expensive. The owner is smart. The ticket is 80 yuan on weekdays, and 97 yuan on National Day, including the Hanyuan Stele Forest and the City Wall Scenic Area. One ticket is good for three days on weekdays, but only one day on holidays. The design and theme of the scenic area are very good, and the experience is very good. The food inside is clean and hygienic, and not expensive. Ten soup dumplings are only 20 yuan. The program is very rich and the scenery is very good. It is worth recommending.
It was amazing! This was my first time experiencing what a tourist attraction truly is. There's no cookie-cutter scenery; every spot is unique. I went a couple of days before National Day, and it wasn't particularly crowded. The ironwork flowers were stunning. There were plenty of NPCs, and the Xianxia parade was really cool.

The pinnacle of Chinese suspended sculpture art: Xiaoxitian Temple's fame stems almost entirely from the Ming Dynasty colored suspended sculptures within its Main Hall. The walls, beams, and roofs of the hall are densely packed with thousands of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, apsaras, birds, animals, and pavilions, leaving barely a single space between, creating a complete, flourishing, and magnificent "Western Paradise."
"Such a scene should only exist in heaven": When you open the doors of the Main Hall, the sight before you is breathtaking. The entire hall is resplendent with golden splendor, and the colorful sculptures hang suspended in the air, seemingly defying gravity. Celestial music lingers, and auspicious clouds drift by. The complexity, exquisiteness, and grandeur of this place exceed many people's imagination.
Secluded and precious: Due to its relatively remote location (in Xi County, Linfen City, Shanxi Province), it is sparsely visited. This, in turn, preserves the tranquility and solemnity of this sacred place. Uninterrupted, you can gaze up and admire this magnificent art, an experience rarely found in more popular tourist destinations.

The scenic area sightseeing bus is very convenient for picking up and dropping off. Although there are many people on National Day, there are many sightseeing buses arranged, and there is basically no queue. It is very fast. Parking is also convenient for those who drive by themselves. The service staff directs in an orderly manner and very quickly. The waterfall is spectacular and worth a visit.
The Yellow River, the mother river, is a place where, standing at the riverbed of the observation deck, you can feel the force of the current and the wash of mist up close, almost as if you can touch the river's pulse. Hukou Waterfall is not only a natural gem but also a symbol of the Chinese national spirit. Its majestic presence, profound cultural heritage, and unique experience attract countless pilgrims, allowing visitors to marvel at the power of nature while feeling the grandeur and resilience of life. Every Chinese deserves a visit.

My second visit was only to Henan, and it was even more poignant than my first. "Red Temple School" instantly brought back my youth, and "Li Family Village" still brought tears to my eyes. The newly rewatched "Xue Huaiyi" offered a unique perspective, "Red Cheeks" evoked the sweetness of childhood, and "Wheat, Wheat" was a silent ritual of the land. Every visit is like a reunion with my homeland and my old self, a lingering experience that is worth savoring over and over again.
Excellent value for money. I experienced the rich cultural heritage of the Central Plains. The service facilities in the scenic area and the enthusiasm of the staff made me feel like I was back home. No matter what time I bought the ticket, it is recommended to enter the venue early in the morning. There are so many and rich activities in the small theater that I can't finish them all in one day.

The tour is very nice and I visited many temple which is very peaceful. The guide is also polite and helpful.
The tour guide was patient and attentive, with a good service attitude. The itinerary was not tiring and was generally at my pace. I like to take it slow and don't like to rush.
