  • The Mausoleum of Yellow Emperor

    The Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum is quite large. The mausoleum itself is located on a mountain, and at the foot of the mountain is a large square for worship and a temple that enshrines various items related to the Yellow Emperor. It is well worth a visit. However, climbing up the mountain without taking an electric cart is quite strenuous.

    On a crisp autumn morning, I once again stepped into the Ganquan Grand Canyon. The morning light slanted into the Birch Gully, making the ochre and dark green veins on the rock walls resemble ancient verses ablaze. As a seasoned visitor, I've witnessed its transformation from a pristine, hidden paradise into a place that blends wildness and warmth. Compared to my last visit, I noticed the scenic area has made significant efforts to enhance the experience: 1. Cultural revitalization, breaking the monotony. The lively and enthusiastic Shaanxi folk dance in front of the visitor center, and the skillful finger movements of the inheritors at the intangible cultural heritage paper-cutting stalls—these added a cultural touch, allowing the geological wonders to be heard before they were seen; 2. Concrete services, ensuring peace of mind. Clear signage and staff on key routes reduced the anxiety of exploring the diverse canyons like Longba Gully and Mudan Gully, allowing for a more relaxed experience; 3. Inclusive policies, demonstrating sincerity. The free admission policy, covering children, the elderly, journalists, and other groups, along with the rise of guesthouses and farmhouses run by villagers, such as "Fengmeizi Courtyard," allows tourists to experience the Loess Plateau's charm more deeply and has genuinely boosted the income of local villagers. Travel Tips: If time is limited, Birch Valley is a must-see, especially the 300-meter stretch of scenery that is particularly classic, with its streams, green moss, and ever-changing light and shadow. It's recommended to avoid the morning rush on holidays to better appreciate the valley's tranquility. Based on my observation, weekdays are a better time to visit. You can also try the guesthouses run by local villagers or sample local delicacies such as potato pancakes and mixed noodles to experience authentic Shaanxi flavors. A small suggestion for operators: Currently, tourism products are still somewhat monotonous, with "valley sightseeing" dominating the market. Consider combining resources such as Laoshan National Forest Park to develop in-depth products like ecological health and wellness and geological research to extend tourists' stay. There is still room for improvement in tourism infrastructure; for example, road congestion and parking difficulties still occur during holidays. The cultural significance of the valley has not yet been fully explored. Beyond the natural scenery, consider adding brief explanatory signs about the formation of Danxia landforms and the ecological protection of the canyon at suitable locations to enhance the depth of the visit. The beauty of Ganquan Grand Canyon lies not only in its breathtaking natural landscape, but also in its efforts to make this beauty more inclusive and approachable. If the attractions and experiences can be further enriched and deepened, this "Chinese Antelope Canyon" will undoubtedly offer travelers an even more profound experience.

    There were some icicles along the Hukou Waterfall in mid-December, which looked beautiful and the scenery was breathtaking. I highly recommend it. The apple and pear pastries I bought in the shopping street were very sweet and delicious. It was also the off-season, so there were very few tourists, and I could take my time to enjoy the scenery!

    Hukou Waterfall, the second largest waterfall in China and the world's largest yellow waterfall, is renowned for its magnificent spectacle, described as "the Yellow River flowing for a thousand miles, all contained in a single pot." A visit here is definitely worthwhile!

    Mount Hua is known for its precipitousness and beautiful scenery. On a sunny day, the feeling of riding the cable car through the cliffs is exhilarating. You can encounter all sorts of people and scenery along the way. I chose a relatively energy-saving method and spent most of the day hiking, stopping and looking around. It was a great experience. I would like to try hiking at night sometime.

    Awe-Inspiring Experience at the Terracotta ArmyVisiting the Terracotta Army was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience and absolutely worth every minute. Standing in front of thousands of life-sized clay soldiers, all arranged in precise battle formations, is both overwhelming and fascinating. The scale of the site is far beyond what photos can capture.What impressed me the most is the level of detail — every warrior has a unique facial expression, hairstyle, and posture. You can really feel the power and ambition of China’s first emperor through this incredible masterpiece. Seeing the excavation pits alongside the restoration area also gives great insight into how carefully these artifacts are preserved and studied.The museum is well-organized, spacious, and informative, with clear explanations in English. It can get crowded, but the viewing platforms are well designed, making it easy to explore and take photos.

    The whole experience was great. We didn't hire a tour guide and were traveling independently. The show was already in the afternoon. The customer service was very considerate and called to let us know the remaining showtimes. They also arranged a free car to take us from the Terracotta Warriors to the theater entrance. After arriving at the theater, we were treated like VIPs and sat in the first row the whole time! The experience was really great hahaha

    Five-star review A huge thumbs-up to Xiaoying, the guide at the Qin and Han Museum! Her explanations were clear and logical, moving from the foundation of the Qin system with its "standardized script and standardized wheel gauge" to the formation of the Han dynasty with its "predominantly Confucian" ideology. She placed the artifacts in a historical context, interspersed with trivia. She was both professional and approachable, proactively guiding us through details and answering questions, bringing the artifacts to life. This tour truly allowed me to understand the grandeur of the Qin and Han dynasties. It was a truly satisfying experience!
