Things to do in Pingliang

This is the premier Taoist site and definitely worth a visit. The mountain is very high, and the steep steps are difficult to climb up and even more difficult to descend. We took the scenic area bus to Zhongtai, climbed the Imperial City, and then walked to Xiangshan. We took the scenic area bus down the mountain in 40 minutes.

Dayun Temple in Jingzhou was built on the original site of Daxingguo Temple in the Sui Dynasty. The stone casket, relic bottle and relics under the original pagoda base were taken out, and the most skilled craftsmen in China at that time who were good at making miniature gold and silver wares were invited to select the most precious pearls, jade and gems of the time. The highest wisdom of an era was condensed, and gold and silver were carved to make gilded bronze boxes and gold and silver coffins. 14 Buddha bone relics were placed in glazed bottles and matched with stone caskets. They were reburied in the underground palace in 694 AD, and a pagoda was built to enshrine them. This was 180 years earlier than the underground palace of Famen Temple in Fufeng, Shaanxi.

As the most famous scenic spot in Zhuanglang County, the overall impression is good, with typical Danxia landforms, and the playability is equivalent to the Xianren Cliff Scenic Area in Tianshui, and the area is larger, with grottoes, temples, reservoirs, and pleasant scenery. It may take more than 6 hours to visit all of them. There are many guide maps in the scenic area, and basically every small scenic spot has one, which is better than many scenic spots. The only small drawback is that there is only a simple toilet from the entrance of the scenic area to the reservoir dam, which is far away and very inconvenient.

They are all rushing for the UFO🛸 suspension bridge...

China has many grottoes worth visiting, and today I'd like to recommend the South Grotto Temple in Pingliang. It's not as famous as the North Grotto Temple, but I prefer its tranquility. There aren't many tourists; I could enjoy it all to myself. Although it has suffered some significant weathering, it doesn't detract from its grandeur.

This is a relatively large comprehensive museum located in the center of Pingliang City. The building is simple and beautiful, and the collection is rich. Its special feature is that there are many historical artifacts unearthed locally. They are ancient, well-preserved, and of great historical and cultural value.

Longquan Temple is a large-scale temple, covering an area of ​​more than 16,000 square meters and a building area of ​​more than 4,000 square meters. The overall layout of the building is three courtyards. The first courtyard is from the mountain gate under the Kuixing Tower. After entering the temple, there is a welcoming pine tree to welcome and see off the people coming and going. The buildings in the first courtyard include the City God Temple, the God of Vehicles Temple, the God of Roads Temple, the Tai Sui Temple, the God of Fire Temple, the Dharma Protector Hall, the Grand Theater, the Dragon Sculpture, and the Release Pond.

This ancient town is a commercial ancient town at the foot of Kongtong Mountain. There is a small town here, but now it is much larger due to commercial reasons. You can still buy some water here before going up.

Zhuanglang Rice Terraces are large-scale rice terraces. They are free and spectacular to watch from the mountain. There is a viewing pavilion on the roadside at the top of the mountain. The pavilion is a bit short, so it would be better to build a high viewing platform for viewing. It is even more beautiful when the flowers bloom.

This one is very unique, very unique, it’s better, much better.
