Come to Datong! Enjoy a two-day trip with kids like this

It's only a 2h distance by high-speed train from Taiyuan to Datong. Besides historical sites, don't miss out on the delicious food! A city walk with kids can be very relaxing! About the attractions: Yingxian Wooden Pagoda: It is the tallest and oldest pure wooden structure in the world, known as one of the 'Three Wonders of the World' along with Italy's Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Eiffel Tower in Paris. It holds high value in the history of Chinese architecture. Hanging Temple: Originally named 'Xuankong Pavilion', it was later renamed to 'Hanging Temple' because the entire temple appears to be hanging on the cliff. It is a fusion of mechanics, aesthetics, and religion, and is definitely worth a visit. Yungang Grottoes: The carving of the Yungang Grottoes began during the Northern Wei Dynasty, led by Tan Yao. He chose Wuzhou Mountain, 'carved the mountain walls, opened five caves, and engraved Buddha statues in each, with the tallest being seventy feet and the next sixty feet. The sculptures are magnificent and crowned in the world.' If you're taking kids, you might want to watch a documentary or prepare the picture book 'The Little Stonemason' to learn about the history beforehand. Datong Ancient City: Huayan Temple and the Nine Dragon Screen are must-visits!! Especially Huayan Temple, it's so photogenic when it's sunny~ The red walls, green tiles, and murals are perfect for dressing up in Hanfu or horse-face skirts for a stronger experience! About the food: Sea buckthorn juice is a must-drink! It's sour and sweet, very refreshing. Baihua Shaomai has a very thin skin~ There are many flavors, personally, I think it tastes similar to soup dumplings, not a big fan. Knife-cut noodles, any place in Datong is delicious!! I must say, Shanxi's noodles are yyds (eternally godlike)~ About transportation: You can choose to hire a car or rent one. Taking a taxi via platforms is also cost-effective, and they won't overcharge you.
