A 5A-level scenic spot that 99% of people don't know about - Mian Mountain

Mian Mountain in Jiexiu, Shanxi, a severely underestimated 5A scenic spot❗ If you come to Shanxi for a tour, please be sure to leave some time for Mian Mountain, because it is really worth your visit🥰. 1️⃣ Scenic spot ticket: 110 yuan, shuttle bus 50 yuan. If you stay in the scenic spot, you can drive up the mountain without buying a shuttle bus🚗. There are also cable cars and elevators at some scenic spots in the scenic area, which need to be purchased separately. The elevator is 15 yuan and the cable car is 35 yuan. 2️⃣ Scenic spot transportation: The shuttle bus in the scenic spot is very convenient, and it will stop at the main scenic spots, and you can get on and off at any time🚌. The tourist center is about ten kilometers away from the farthest scenic spot, Shuitao Gully, on the top of the mountain. 3️⃣ Scenic spot accommodation: I stayed at the Cliff Hotel under Yunfeng Temple, with a standard room of 330 yuan, where you can eat and park🅿. The altitude of Mian Mountain Scenic Area is about 1500 meters, which is very cool and suitable for summer vacation🏞. 4️⃣ Play suggestions The Mian Mountain Scenic Area is very large, and it is recommended to play for two days. If you only have one day and want to save money, it is recommended to stay near the tourist center at the foot of the mountain, and take the bus up the mountain early the next morning, and you can take the last bus down in the afternoon🚍. There are many inns and farmhouses next to the tourist center, most of which are priced within 100 yuan, which is very affordable✅. 5️⃣ Recommended scenic spot route: Longtou Temple-Daluo Palace-Tianqiao Scenic Area-Yunfeng Temple-Zhengguo Temple-Qixian Valley-Jiegong Ridge-Shuitao Gully. Shuitao Gully is the last stop of the scenic spot shuttle bus🌊. Mian Mountain has 14 major scenic spots and more than 360 minor scenic spots. What I recommend is just the main scenic spots, and other minor scenic spots can go if you have more time🎈. Note: Qixian Valley, generally not recommended for tourists, parents with children, and the elderly should not go. This place is only suitable for friends who like outdoor adventure challenges. The road inside is very difficult to walk, and there are many suspended steps and wooden suspension bridges built on the steep cliffs on both sides of the stream in the canyon, which are frightening😱. Longtou Temple: The place where Li Shimin came in the past, this is also the first scenic spot to enter the Mian Mountain Scenic Area. This place is very suitable for taking pictures, and the view is very good! 📸 Daluo Palace: The crown of Chinese Taoist architecture, built on the cliff of Lion Mountain, is very shocking! The entire building is stacked layer by layer, a total of 13 layers, the shape is quite like the Potala Palace, so it is also called the "Little Potala Palace"🙏. Tianqiao Scenic Area: There is a suspended plank road above, built on the straight cliff, you must go up and experience it, it is very thrilling! 🧗‍♂️ Yunfeng Temple: Mainly look at the Buddhist temples under the cliff and cliff grottoes, as well as Tiesuoling, and a section of zigzag suspended plank road, built on the vertical cliff and cliff, especially thrilling. This is also a landmark landscape of Mian Mountain, which is very suitable for aerial photography and very shocking! 🚁 Zhengguo Temple: There are more than a dozen flesh Buddhas, which cannot be seen elsewhere, and are called "world miracles" by experts. Lingying Tower can go up, aerial photography is very shocking! 🛫 Jiegong Ridge: Jie Zitui's seclusion, self-immolation and worship place, the Jie Shen Temple on the mountain is located in a huge grotto, which is the largest grotto temple in our country🙇‍. Shuitao Gully: "The Jiuzhaigou in the north". The mountains and waters are very beautiful, and it is very cool inside, suitable for summer vacation and water play. The Shuitao Gully Scenic Area is very large, and it is about 8 kilometers to the end. The end point is the Water Curtain Cave🧊. In general, Mian Mountain Scenic Area is a combination of strangeness, danger, and beauty. It has both cultural and natural landscapes. It is also an excellent summer resort in summer. I personally think it is worth a visit! 👍
