3-Day Shanxi Tour, Unforgettable Scenery.

1️⃣st Stop: Taiyuan Must-visit 1: Taiyuan Ancient County Free admission, perfect for night tours, takes about 3 hours to walk through, you can also take photos in ancient costumes, and there are many delicious foods! There are "Full River Red" performances on weekends, where you can see intangible cultural heritage performances such as iron flower and fire pot, perfect for family trips! Must-visit 2: Jiu Jin Mian Pi 🍜 A super authentic noodle shop, a local restaurant, always a queue, the roujiamo is amazing! Must-visit 3: Food Street + Bell Tower Street 🍲 A must-visit in Taiyuan! Food, cultural and creative products, souvenirs, especially cultural and creative products, super cute fridge magnets, you can't buy them all! The two streets are connected, reserve 2-3 hours. Must-visit 4: Lao Junying Snack Street 🤤 This street is amazing at night, no bad shops, highly recommend the noodles and spicy hot pot at the entrance, and the old-fashioned fried skewers! 2️⃣nd Stop: Ying County Must-visit: Yingxian Wooden Pagoda 🏯 Drove 6 hours for the pure mortise and tenon structure of Yingxian Wooden Pagoda (complained about the surrounding facilities in the previous note) The pagoda itself is very impressive, even if you can't climb it, you will admire the wisdom of the ancients at the base, truly a masterpiece! The sense of history is very touching. Make sure you have enough time, reserve a day to come here (the scenic area closes at 6:30 pm) It's not safe to return at night❗ 3️⃣rd Stop: Datong Must-visit 1: Huayan Temple The murals are exquisite, perfect for photos! (But there are too many people in line) Many friends say the essence is deeper inside, but I didn't have time to go this time! Must-visit 2: Yungang Grottoes The "Grottoes Area" inside is really impressive, you can also high-five the "Internet-famous Buddha"~ (Many local friends highly recommend the music cave inside, but I didn't have time to go), reserve a day for Yungang Grottoes! This Shanxi trip was a bit unsatisfying due to time constraints and holiday peak season, I must come back in the off-season to truly experience the culture and history~ (Still afraid of transportation, see previous note for details🤣)
