The stunning secret realm of Mount Hua awaits your exploration

Weinan is truly underrated! As a hidden gem destination near Xi'an, it boasts numerous breathtaking natural landscapes and cultural sites. The best part is fewer crowds and beautiful scenery, making for a super comfortable trip🏞 Must-visit attractions: 📍Mount Hua One of the Five Great Mountains, known as the Western Mountain, famous for its steepness! It’s recommended to take the cable car up from the West Peak and down from the North Peak, so you can experience the thrilling "Sky Plank Road" and enjoy the stunning mountain views⛰ (Address: Jiling Road, Huayin City) Tips: Remember to wear non-slip sports shoes and bring sun protection~ 📍Tongguan Ancient City A thousand-year-old military fortress with well-preserved city walls and towers. You can climb the walls to overlook the Yellow River scenery and feel the grandeur of the "Most Dangerous Place Under Heaven"🏯 (Address: Tongguan Town, Tongguan County) Photo tip: The light is best at dusk, and wearing Hanfu for photos adds a special vibe! 📍Qiachuan Wetland A rare Yellow River wetland in northern China, with swaying reeds and lotus ponds under the moonlight. In spring and summer, you can see flocks of migratory birds🦢 (Address: Qiachuan Town, Heyang County) Recommended activity: Experience a special wooden boat tour of the wetland and taste fresh Yellow River carp 📍Shaohua Mountain Forest Park A lesser-known spot not far from Mount Hua, with a very high forest coverage! It’s a great summer retreat and you can ski in winter🎿 (Address: Lianhuasi Town, Huazhou District) Highly recommended: The thrilling glass skywalk offers a panoramic view of the entire forest 📍Hancheng Ancient City A well-preserved Ming and Qing dynasty ancient city, full of exquisite ancient buildings. Be sure to visit the Sima Qian Shrine and Dangjia Village🏘 (Address: Hancheng City) 🍜 Food guide: ✔ Tongguan Roujiamo (meat sandwich): crispy outside, tender inside, must add green chili ✔ Heyang Xuemian (coarse grain noodles): topped with special chili oil, absolutely delicious ✔ Hancheng Lamb and Carrot Soup: warming and tasty, perfect for winter ✔ Dali Braised Pork Knuckle: rich but not greasy, melts in your mouth 🚗 Transportation tips: • About 1.5 hours driving from Xi'an to Weinan city center • High-speed train from Xi'an North Station to Weinan North Station takes only 30 minutes • It’s recommended to rent a car or hire a driver between attractions, as public transport is not very convenient
