[2025 Yangquan Attraction] Travel Guide for Shinaoshan Park (Updated Aug)

Yangquan is a city with a long history, rich culture, and beautiful natural scenery. Here, you can visit the Nanziguan Scenic Area, where you can experience the majesty of the "Ninth Pass Under Heaven" and enjoy the natural beauty of the Nanziguan Waterfall. The Guguan Great Wall, with its well-preserved stone-built inner wall and magnificent architectural relics, attracts countless history enthusiasts. In terms of natural scenery, the Cangshan Scenic Area is a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city, with its towering peaks, ancient temples, lush trees, and babbling streams. Meanwhile, the Shinaoshan Forest Park, open 24 hours a day, is a popular spot for locals to relax and enjoy the beautiful natural scenery. In addition, Yangquan has a wealth of red tourism resources, such as the Hundred Regiments Battle Memorial Hall and the Tunnel Warfare Site, which vividly showcase the heroic struggles of the past. In short, Yangquan is a tourist destination that combines history, culture, natural scenery, and red tourism, and is well worth a visit.

🚄: Get off at Yangquan North Station. If you have enough time, you can go to Baoguo Temple nearby, which is about one kilometer away from the North Station. Yangquan North Station is far from the city center. You can take a taxi or transfer to Yangquan East Station (10 yuan) 1⃣ Lion Head Mountain——Beishan Park——1947 Cultural Park It is recommended to drive to Lion's Head Mountain by yourself, because you really can't get a taxi 😭. It took more than an hour to walk down after climbing. The whole journey is not long and you can reach the top in half an hour. The European-style buildings in Beishan Park are great for taking photos! The park is not big and you need to walk up a flight of stairs. I personally recommend going there before dark, as the night view is not as beautiful as during the day. 2⃣Niangziguan It is far from the city to Niangziguan, and a taxi costs more than 100 yuan. You can search for bus No. 2 on Baidu Maps to get there, or you can drive or take a train from Yangquan Station to Niangziguan Station (9 yuan), get off the bus and walk for a while to get there. ‼ ️When taking bus No. 2, you must pay attention to the time. There are only four buses a day, and they accept cash, not WeChat payment. We bought tickets for Guancheng - Waterfall - Pingyang Lake, three attractions, for 67 yuan, half price is 33 yuan. You can go to the live broadcast to buy it. The driver told us when we took a taxi out, it is much cheaper. The steps of the Great Wall at Guancheng are very steep, so you must pay attention to safety when going up. Personally, I feel that the waterfall is the most worth seeing of the three attractions, and its film-making factor is five stars. Each scenic spot is interspersed with some small projects, such as glass plank roads and boat rides, which require separate charges. The whole journey takes a long time and requires a certain amount of physical strength. Walking 15,000 steps a day is a basic requirement. But the scenery on the road is very good, and it is also very healing to walk and watch~

With the popularity of the TV series 'Blooming Flowers', the issues related to Shanghai have also become one of the topics of concern and heated discussion after meals. However, in our country, there is such a city, it is the poorest city in Shanxi. This place was once known as Little Shanghai, and now its GDP is the last in the province! Curious friends might ask, where is this city? What different scenery is there? With these questions and curiosity, today we will talk about the things related to Yangquan, Shanxi. Yangquan City, a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Shanxi Province. It was known as 'Yangquan' in ancient times, and is also known as Mountain City, the first city of the Chinese Communist Party, and the third largest city in Shanxi Province.
