The top ten places to visit in Shanxi!In the vast land of Sanjin, Shanxi, there are ten places you must visit. They are like bright pearls on the loess plateau, each with its own characteristics, exuding unique charm. First, we are going to visit the Hanging Temple of Hengshan. This building, which was built during the Northern Wei Dynasty, has a history of more than 1500 years and is the most dangerous high-altitude wooden cliff building in the world. It hangs in the air like a painting, hanging on the cliff, which is breathtaking. Next, we are going to Wutai Mountain in Xinzhou. As the first of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China, Wutai Mountain not only has monks of dry boats, but also can see the horns of Tibetan boats. It is the intersection of faith and culture, which makes people awe. Then, let's come to Ying County and admire the highest tomb tower building in the world - Ying County Wooden Tower. This building, more than 60 meters high, does not use a nail or rivet, and is built entirely by traditional mortise and tenon technology. It is tilting every year, and it is a precious building that you see less once. Then, we come to the Eight Springs Gorge of Taihang Mountain. This is the essence of the Taihang Mountain Grand Canyon, known as the peak of mountain and water scenery in Shanxi. The canyon is deep, and the mountain spring waterfall flows, which is intoxicating. In addition, we are going to visit Yanmenguan in Xinzhou. The history here can be traced back to the Warring States Period. The stories of Zhaojun going out of the fortress and the Yang family are well-known, and it is known as the first pass in China. Next, let's walk into the Yungang Grottoes in Datong. As one of the four major grottoes in China, the Yungang Grottoes were built during the Northern Wei Dynasty. The statues here blend the essence of traditional Chinese art style, ancient Indian culture and Western Region culture, which is breathtaking. Then, we are going to Linchuan Wangmangling. The forest coverage rate here is over 95%, and the summer temperature remains between 18~20 degrees, which is an ideal place for summer in Shanxi. In addition, we are going to admire the Hukou Waterfall of the Yellow River. Although the Hukou Waterfall spans Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, the water of the Yellow River here is surging and surging, like a rush from the sky, giving people a strong visual impact. Finally, we are going to Pingyao Ancient City in Jinzhong. This is the only ancient county town in the country that has successfully applied for World Cultural Heritage as a whole ancient city. It is full of the atmosphere of ancient Jin merchants' culture, which makes people feel as if they have traveled through time and space and returned to that prosperous era.Aiden.Roberts@633

Yingxian Wooden Pagoda, Xuankong Temple in Hunyuan.Shanxi Trip: Yingxian Wooden Pagoda, Xuankong Temple || The weather was nice and cool. The Yingxian Wooden Pagoda is a true wonder, but it has been leaning for decades. This is because a leader in the 1980s decided to replace the wooden walls on each floor with wooden lattice windows, which caused the pagoda to lean due to different wind pressures. I also thought of some recent renovations that have turned beauty into ugliness and destroyed the real to create the fake. I hope the leaders who don't know what they're doing will leave our few remaining historical treasures alone. When I arrived at Xuankong Temple, the sky was full of auspicious clouds. I climbed the steps along the cliff and couldn't help but admire the wisdom and perseverance of the ancients.darius_6577

Suspension Temple is located in Hunyuan County, Datong City, Shanxi Province, and is one of the core attractions of Hengshan Scenic Area. Suspension Temple is known for "suspended, strange and clever". Tourists can feel the shocking landscape embedded in the cliffs through the plank road up close. The suspension temple is a temple where the three religions of Confucianism and Taoism are combined. The suspension temple also serves statues of Confucius, Sakyamuni and Laozi, reflecting the inclusiveness of ancient Chinese religious culture.
I have been thinking about the attractions that I must come to. The description of Jin Yong's martial arts novel is not very accurate! We didn't board because our friends were afraid of heights, but it took a lot of time to take pictures on the other side. It is recommended to take a shuttle bus to Hengshan to play after going to the suspension temple.
The suspension temple is famous for its steep buried location and exquisite construction skills. Tickets can be bought online, boarding tickets are 100 yuan and bus tickets are 20 yuan to buy at the tourist service center. There is also a certain distance from the entrance of the suspension temple scenic spot to choose to take the bus. There is a number of people to control the ticket. It depends on whether the scenic spot is issuing tickets. We went there at 15 o'clock in the afternoon and there are tickets for the ticket. Someone in the parking lot will take you to the entrance of the suspension temple to charge according to the head. Don't believe it. Even if you don't buy a ticket, you can take the scenic bus to the entrance of the Hanging Temple Scenic Area. You can only take pictures on the opposite side. The main hall of the Hanging Temple: Experience the thrill of walking on the cliff, visit the Buddha statues and murals in the main hall. Sanjiao Temple: Here is a statue of Confucius, Sakyamuni and Laozi, reflecting the characteristics of the unity of the three religions.
It is worth a visit. The suspension temple integrates mechanics, aesthetics and religious studies. It is a great spectacle in the history of world architecture. It is a great thing to have the opportunity to climb the suspension temple. Even if you can't climb, sitting under the temple and forgetting it is a great thing. The ancients are too great.
The Hanging Temple has become a rare tourist attraction with its unique geographical location, architectural style, historical and cultural value and tourism experience. It is not only one of the outstanding representatives of ancient Chinese architectural art, but also an important force to promote the inheritance and development of Chinese culture.
The hanging temple is very worth visiting, that is, the ticket for the landing is not easy to buy. We arrived late, about 10 o'clock, and we didn't buy the landing ticket. But looking at the temple built on the cliff below, I still feel very spectacular, and I am impressed by the wisdom of the ancients!
Check in the hanging temple, still need to climb down, different feelings, more unique, people who are afraid of heights are not recommended, Shanxi must punch in the attractions, if you don't share a car, Datong will take a bus to Hunyuan, and then take a taxi. The traffic is still convenient.
I don't know when to release tickets online. I didn't get adult tickets online a few days before I went. I went to the idea of trying it on the spot. Fortunately, I bought tickets and boarding tickets on the spot. I don't know if there will be such good luck on weekends and holidays. You must go to the queue early when you board. There is also a queue area you can't see in front of the railing of the circle. I thought there were not many people in the queue at the time, and I was not in a hurry. As a result, I found that there was a long queue in front of me and I was always on the mountain. Here should add a reminder of the length of the queue, so that everyone can know. I queued for almost an hour to go up. From Datong Ancient City and Yangmen Square, take the through train at 7:30 in the morning, drive for an hour and a half, and arrive at the scenic spot at 9 o'clock. The tour group has come a lot.
