If you drive there, the parking fee is 10 yuan. You can purchase a sightseeing bus to and from the ice cave for 5 yuan each way. You can also walk up. The lower part of the ice cave is a staircase, with a single route in and out. The ice cave has a variety of lighting. It's best to wear warm clothing; if you don't have any, there are rentals available in the parking lot.
The scenic area is currently undergoing a short road renovation. After checking your ticket, you'll board a tour bus to the foot of the Hanging Village. Looking up at the village, it seems quite high, but it's actually quite easy to climb. There's a stall selling roasted corn and sweet potatoes up there, which are delicious and fragrant. A cool breeze, gurgling water, and flowers strewn across the grounds are a delightful experience!

This is a famous historical and cultural town in China, the birthplace of both the Yang and Wu families of Tai Chi. Surrounded by a 100-meter-wide moat, it boasts a pleasant ecological environment and beautiful scenery, making it a must-see. Don't miss the cheap combined ticket. Hongji Bridge is a bit far from the Guangfu Ancient City, so you can take a shuttle bus to get there.
The historical sites are well-preserved, but you must ask for a guide, otherwise you'll just be wandering around. Taking a private electric car is more convenient, but the distance is a bit far. The entrance fees to several attractions are quite affordable, and you must visit the ancient city wall.

Very satisfied. It's not far from the end of the main street. After getting off the shuttle bus, it's only a few minutes' walk away. It's very clean, the bedding is not damp, and the bathroom doesn't smell at all. The cleaning lady cleans very carefully. There's a convenience store downstairs, and you can eat pollution-free apples. The proprietresses are two very beautiful older sisters. They are very nice. I was really satisfied and stayed there for two days. The scenery of Yuntaishan is very beautiful. The proprietress recommended that if you bring a baby, you must visit Red Stone Man and Quanpu Gorge. The recommendation was very accurate. We also played on the jungle slide in Macaque Valley, and the children were very happy.
Is it worth spending 20 yuan to save 20 minutes of walking up the mountain? Everyone has their own opinion. You missed a little scenery, but you can see another little scenery.

Mount Wutai is so big that you don't have to worry about the route when you join a tour group. Those who travel independently can take the free shuttle bus in the scenic area and play from stop to stop. When you are tired, you can get on the bus, and when you are not tired, you can walk around. It is quite suitable, but there are too many people. September is the off-season and there are not many people, but there are still crowds of people. The reception level in the scenic area is limited, and there are queues in the toilets. The queuing phenomenon in the scenic area is serious, so some people will go there again and again. Below Dailuoding, there is a slow slope when you come down. If people want to rest, there is a very small step on the side with an iron frame next to it to sit on. However, there is no sign on the step and the bricks on the ground are gray, which is particularly difficult to distinguish. I sat there for less than 20 minutes and three or four people sprained their ankles, but I forgot to take pictures. I hope the scenic area will consider being more humane when designing the rest platform.
I bought my Mount Wutai ticket and the Wuye Bodhisattva Body-Expanding Talisman on Ctrip. On the bus to Mount Wutai, the driver told me my Ctrip ticket might not work. I was apprehensive. Could Ctrip be so unreliable? Then I figured I could just buy new tickets at the customer service center. I was immediately able to enter after swiping my ID at the entrance gate. What a relief! Ctrip is trustworthy!

The Jin Temple Museum and Tianlongshan Scenic Area are located together, so you can buy separate tickets. If you're only going to the museum, I recommend parking in P3, which is less crowded and closer, but you won't be able to see all of Jin Temple Park. The entire park is beautiful, and the architecture of the museum is exquisite. I didn't expect it to be so crowded on a non-weekend holiday.
Outside the Jin Temple is a huge park that was built later and is completely free. Inside are historical buildings that require admission, which is well worth a visit. There are various historical and cultural buildings and ancient trees.

Baoquan Secret Land has beautiful scenery and pleasant views. It is worth the trip to the beautiful Henan. We also welcome friends from all over the country to visit here and experience the beautiful mountains and rivers of Zhuguo.
A 5A-rated scenic spot designated in December 2015, this two-day combined ticket for Grand Canyon and Cliff World offers the most densely populated waterfall complex in the Central Plains. Its unique topography, with pools every five steps and waterfalls every ten steps, creates a picturesque natural water system. Relax with river tracing and bamboo rafting, where you can remove your shoes while enjoying the refreshing waters. Cliff World offers easy access via the Luojia Cableway. Experience the thrill of high-altitude adventures: a glass rooftop and cliff suspension bridge offer panoramic views of the Red Cliffs, a spot featured on the cover of National Geographic.

The location is very easy to find, the transportation is convenient, the service attitude is very good, it has its own parking lot, the parking location is convenient, the scenery is pleasant, it is definitely worth a visit!
It is worth visiting the Eight Springs Gorge, Black Dragon Pond, and Red Bean Gorge of the Taihang Grand Canyon! There are sacred places on land, sea, and air. You can climb mountains to see the scenery, take a boat to see the scenery, and take a car to see the scenery from the air. It is a 5A scenic spot, worthy of its name. Agree to publish rules

The scenic area has a good environment and is in the style of the Southern Taihang Mountains. However, there are big problems with the management order. During holidays, there are many people queuing up, and the operation is not timely. It should be that they were not well prepared after the sudden popularity. Everything else is good and the scenery is worth seeing.
Fortunately, we took the A line of the scenic area, which saved effort (going down the stairs). We bought a package ticket and the scenery was great - we could see the mountains, water, and clouds! The road signs in the scenic area were also clear.

It holds profound significance, so as a Chinese, you should definitely visit.
Yanmen Pass, formerly known as Gouzhu Mountain, boasts towering peaks and rugged terrain. It's a crucial pass on the Great Wall, known as "China's First Pass." There's a saying that "of the nine fortresses under heaven, Yanmen is the foremost."
Standing atop the Yanmen Pass tower, gazing out into the distance, you can admire the rolling hills, the winding Great Wall, the narrow pass, and the breathtaking scenery of the frontier.
Walking along the ancient Great Wall, viewing the military defense relics and sites, countless histories and legends resonate in your mind, leaving you filled with emotion.
For thousands of years, Yanmen Pass has witnessed countless battles and wars. From the early Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Turks to the later Khitan, Jurchen, and Mongols, northern ethnic groups all battled against the Han dynasties at Yanmen Pass.
Yanmen Pass forged the valiant and loyal spirits of many frontier defenders, including King Mu of Zhou, Li Mu, Meng Tian, Liu Bang, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, Li Guang, Emperor Yang of Sui, Xue Rengui, and the Yang Family Generals.
During the reign of Emperor Yuan of Han, when Wang Zhaojun crossed the border through Yanmen Pass's natural barrier and married the Xiongnu, Yanmen Pass became a thoroughfare for friendly exchanges within and beyond the borders.
Arriving at Yanmen Pass's natural barrier and standing at the very gate where Wang Zhaojun left the border, one is struck by the depth of history and the magnificent beauty of nature, creating a unique sense of wonder.
The majestic Yanmen Pass, nestled amidst the vast mountain range, is truly breathtaking. A full hike would take about five hours. Like many scenic spots, the parking lot is far away, forcing you to take a frustrating shuttle bus.
