然然小幺儿
I took my son to Yanmenguan to play. The children rode camels and climbed the Great Wall. They were very happy. There is no strong sun cover on the Great Wall. Everyone must do a good job of sun protection. The slope of the Great Wall stairs is relatively large. It is recommended to install lightly.

It's spectacular, it's really shocked! Yingxian wooden tower is located in Yingxian, Shuozhou, Shanxi Province, built in Liaoqingning two years (1056 AD), is the oldest and tallest pure wooden structure pavilion building in existence, but also the treasure in ancient buildings in China, the model of the world's wooden structure building. Yingxian wooden tower is built on a four-meter-high platform base, the tower is67.31 meters high, and the bottom diameter is30.27 meters, which is in a flat octagonal shape. The height of the tower is about2.2 times the bottom diameter, and the proportion is quite thick, so that the wooden tower is high and steep without losing its weight, and the wooden tower in Yingxian will be stable in the ground.

派派跑得快
Originally known as Dachunyang Wanshou Palace, it was built to commemorate the famous Taoist Lu Dongbin in the Tang Dynasty. It is a famous Taoist palace view. It is famous for its exquisite Yuan Dynasty murals and is one of the gems of ancient Chinese mural art. The main building complex of Yongle Palace sits north and south, and along the central axis are arranged in turn with the Dragon and Tiger Palace (Wujimen), Sanqing Palace (Wuji Palace), Chunyang Palace and Chongyang Palace. These buildings reflect the typical Yuan Dynasty Taoist Palace architectural style. Among them, the Sanqing Palace is the most magnificent, is the largest palace in the palace, and is also the essence of the mural art. Especially the "Dynasty Yuan Map" in the Sanqing Temple depicts the magnificent scenes of the Taoist gods worshiping the heavenly throne of the Yuan Dynasty. The picture characters are many, vivid, colorful and smooth. It is the peak of ancient Chinese mural art. It is the study of social life, religious belief, The costume system and so on have extremely high value. What is more shocking is that Yongle Palace has been relocated in order to cooperate with the construction of the Sanmenxia Reservoir of the Yellow River! This is simply an engineering miracle, let people pay homage to the wisdom and courage of ancient craftsmen. Moreover, it is worth mentioning that the security uncles in each temple are not only very conscientious, but also enthusiastically share historical events about Yongle Palace with tourists, which gives me a deeper understanding of this place.

There are not many people outdoors, it is very good to visit, but after entering the gate, you have to take a bus to get to the scenic spot. It takes less than five minutes to get to the scenic spot. The charge is ten yuan per person, but you can't climb three or four kilometers by yourself.

Very good, in general, the sculpture needs some background to see the way out, but the Buddha statue of Shuanglin Temple is meticulous and vivid, and you can feel the charm of cultural treasures without being an insider. It is the most unmissable of all the attractions in Pingyao. It is also our favorite in this trip.

The ancient city is worth a visit, crossing the millennium time and space to meet with history. The night view is dazzling! There are not many tourists on the Datong City Wall that came on May Day. The wind blows on the empty city wall, overlooking the lights of thousands of houses in Datong City. A bright moon hangs in the sky, this night I look up with the ancestors of Liaojin thousands of years ago to see a little starlight.
