Anonymous userZhangbi Ancient Castle, a national key cultural relics protection unit in Jiexiu City, Shanxi Province, is famous for its military defense system and astronomical culture. Below is a travel guide. Must-See Highlights: Underground Tunnels: A three-layered structure (upper level for sentry duty, middle level for troop deployment, lower level for food storage). 1500 meters of the tunnels are currently open to the public, containing ancient military facilities such as horse kilns, command kilns, and communication tubes. Wearing non-slip shoes is recommended. Glazed Glass Art: The peacock blue glazed glass stele (Ming Dynasty tricolor glazed glass decoration) at the Kongwang Buddha Temple is one of only two remaining in the country. The Erlang Temple Glazed Glass Exhibition Hall displays glazed glass statues of the twelve zodiac animals and the twenty-eight constellations. Locust Tree Embracing Willow: A thousand-year-old locust tree with a hollowed-out willow branch symbolizes vitality and is a landmark of the castle. Astrological Layout: The castle is designed according to the twenty-eight constellations. The north gate corresponds to "Bi" (壁) constellation, and the south gate corresponds to "Zhang" (张) constellation. Climbing the city wall offers a panoramic view of the "Star Village".

UmafengyaThe museum is located in a park. The parking lot is near the park, but there are many cars and few spaces. We parked quite far away. The museum's entrance, plaza, and staircase are all rather extravagant, requiring a long walk. After going up to the second floor and entering the main gate, exhibition halls 1 and 2 are on the first floor, so you have to go back downstairs. The exhibits are worth seeing, but the layout is inconvenient and should be improved.

小贩何I absolutely loved the winter snowscape at Jinci Temple. We had a guided tour (100 RMB) for an hour and a half, which was very professional and great value (don't hire any so-called guides on the street!). The tour was very educational! 👍👍 At the end, they even summarized the three treasures, three wonders, and three plaques.

_We***98Because it had just snowed, there were very few people, making the viewing experience absolutely fantastic! 👍🏻 The looping light and shadow effects created an incredibly immersive and realistic experience! The opening animation of the game right at the entrance was truly breathtaking! The digital Pigsy guides you through the ancient architecture, and the Chaoyuan Map is interactive, instantly bringing famous murals to life and introducing you to many Taoist deities – a real educational experience! I also got to try out the Black Myth game on-site, which was a lot of fun – highly recommended!
4.7/5Anonymous userTaiyuan Botanical Garden is a landmark building in Taiyuan. I went there and it was really beautiful! We went during the Dragon Boat Festival, and it was especially beautiful. All kinds of animals and plants were incredibly gorgeous. There's also the famous giant elevator, which is very attractive and great for taking photos. It was absolutely fantastic!

。小冉冉The Huangcheng Xiangfu (Imperial City Prime Minister's Residence) is a 5A-level scenic spot worth visiting. Its grand scale integrates defensive and residential functions, with a clever layout and exquisite brick and wood carvings throughout, showcasing a rich cultural heritage. The scenic area also offers a variety of live performances, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in history. However, it also has drawbacks such as a long parking area and excessive commercialization in some areas.
