The First Gate Under Heaven

Linfen Huamen To the right of Yao Temple is a large road, and at the end of the road stands an ancient building. As you get closer, you will see that it is a gate. In front of the gate are five golden characters that read "The First Gate Under Heaven." This is the largest gate in the world, and inside is the Huamen Museum. Huamen is composed of a base, a main gate, and a gatehouse. The main structure includes a large staircase, a skirt house, a main gate, and a pavilion. It has two underground floors and seven above-ground floors. The main gate is 18 meters high. Inside Huamen, there are five floors and 18 scenic spots. The elevator can take you directly to the fifth floor, where there is an observation deck that offers a panoramic view. You can see the Fen River in the distance and the real scene of Yaodu District in Linfen up close. There are many famous attractions in the scenic area, such as "Long History," "The Gate Opens to a Prosperous Country," "The Days of Yao and Shun," "The Oriental Dragon," "The Nine Tripods," "The Great Couplets Under Heaven," "A Distant View," "Huamen Flying Wish," "Famous Gate Expo," and "Huamen Night." We went for a walk in the square after dinner, and the Huamen at night was full of lights and had a different view.
