Kongtong Mountain
AAnonymous UserVery good, very good along the way, the scenery is very good. It is really comfortable to play in spring and summer, and it is worth a visit. It is recommended to take the cable car up and the car down, so that you will not be too tired and you can probably experience all the scenery.
Kongtong Ancient Town
郭郭润龙浪迹天涯20230403 afternoon:
1. "Kongtong Ancient Town" is an ancient town imitating the style of Ming and Qing Dynasties at the foot of Kongtong Mountain (5A). It is a new scenic spot integrating accommodation, culture, flower viewing, shopping, entertainment, food and drink. It is located on the only way from the city to Kongtong Mountain. It is regarded as a foothold for most foreign free-travel tourists to climb Kongtong Mountain. There will be a direct bus to Kongtong Mountain every day. The layout of the ancient town is Taoist Bagua. The comprehensive and detailed introduction of Kongtong culture is a good supplement and polish to Kongtong Mountain tourism. It is also a place for locals to relax and take their children out on weekends.
① Address: Yaowu Street, Kongtong District, Pingliang City, Gansu Province.
② Transportation: Direct bus, easy to park by car.
③ Peak season: None.
④ Time: 4 hours.
2. The north gate is the main gate "Dingbei Gate" (the names of the four gates restore the names of the gates of the ancient Pingliang City). A tall city tower was built in modern times. Recently, it has rained and snowed in Shaanxi and Gansu. The marble floor outside the city gate is very slippery. Be careful when entering the city. The city is quiet and deserted. I thought the scenic area was deserted. Later, when I met a living person, I realized that it was because there were few people on Monday, and it suddenly dropped in temperature and rained. Snow fell at high altitudes, and the peaks to the west were covered with ice and snow. The through bus to Kongtong Mountain Scenic Area has stopped running due to road conditions. The next day, you can only take the bus to Kongtong Mountain.
3. Go around the city counterclockwise. In the northwest area of the ancient town, there are "Happy World" (amusement park), cultural and creative stores (martial arts, folk customs, handicrafts, special ornaments, photo walls, etc.), "Farming Exhibition Hall" (farming props in the northwest region are displayed in the corner), and the west gate "Laiyuan Gate" (the most beautiful gate on the periphery. The square outside the gate has Huabiao columns, stone bridges, water wheels and other landscapes. The background is the snow-white Kongtong Mountain on the top of the mountain. It is a photo spot).
4. In the southwest area of the ancient town, there is a "Non-material Cultural Heritage Street", where the non-material cultural heritage projects on display include "Pingliang Go Culture Exhibition Hall", " Kongtong District Opera Museum ("The only museum open today. They unlocked and turned on the lights for me after seeing me enter the museum. There are free opera performances on the stage inside from Friday to Sunday, one show a day. The country vigorously supports local cultural industries, with a subsidy of 5,000 yuan per show. The lead singer of the weekend program is the owner, Pu Huqin, a national first-class actor. He has a private collection of more than 6,000 exhibits stored in the two-story exhibition hall. Only more than 1,000 pieces are on display, divided into 8 exhibition rooms and 13 categories to display opera culture. Among them, many sets of costumes and shadow puppets from the Ming and Qing dynasties are colorful and beautiful. I strongly recommend checking in), "Ancient Blue Dyeing Intangible Cultural Heritage Cultural and Creative Studio", "Wu Jianguo Clay Sculpture Museum", "Pingliang Original Local Music Creation Base", "Guopin Honglian Embroidery Museum", "Fuyou Wood Art Root Carving Art Museum", "Zhao Juan Paper-Cutting Art Museum", "Yang Kai Dough Sculpture", "Wang Zhen Flower Bun", "Ankou Kiln Rural Work Research Center", you can imagine that this place is likely to be crowded and extremely lively on weekends. In the southwestern corner is a group of villas surrounded by cherry blossoms.
5. The Kongtong martial arts introduction signs on both sides of this area opened my eyes. It turns out that the real Kongtong martial arts is not the Seven Wound Fist in Jin Yong's novel "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber", but there are dozens of them (Eight Tiger Sticks...

Liuhu Park
有有文化的女士The sky and water merge into one, making it a great weekend getaway for kids in all seasons. There are many activities for kids to enjoy, including boating, painting, fishing, and playing in the playground. There are also bumper cars, but younger children need to be accompanied by their parents.
Dayun Temple • Wangmu Palace
MM29***62Dayun Temple in Jingzhou was built on the original site of Daxingguo Temple in the Sui Dynasty. The stone casket, relic bottle and relics under the original pagoda base were taken out, and the most skilled craftsmen in China at that time who were good at making miniature gold and silver wares were invited to select the most precious pearls, jade and gems of the time. The highest wisdom of an era was condensed, and gold and silver were carved to make gilded bronze boxes and gold and silver coffins. 14 Buddha bone relics were placed in glazed bottles and matched with stone caskets. They were reburied in the underground palace in 694 AD, and a pagoda was built to enshrine them. This was 180 years earlier than the underground palace of Famen Temple in Fufeng, Shaanxi.
Pingliang Museum
DDelia_ZhangThe national first-class museum has few tourists, and the viewing experience is very comfortable. There are regular explanations. In addition to the permanent exhibition, I also watched the temporary exhibition "Harmony and Unity - Pingliang Gold and Bronze Sculpture Art Exhibition"
Longquan Temple
MM49***66Longquan Temple is a large-scale construction, covering an area of more than 10,000 square meters, and a construction area of more than 4,000 square meters. The overall architectural layout is three courtyards. The first entry is from the mountain gate downstairs of Kuixing. After entering the temple, there are welcome pine and welcome all beings. The first buildings to enter the courtyard include Chenghuang Temple, Cheshen Temple, Lujin Temple, Taisui Temple, Fire Temple, Law Guard Hall, Grand Theatre, Dragon Carving, Freeing Pool, etc.
Haizhaigou Sceneic Area
MM49***77In August, a group of twenty-nine of us crossed the country road and came to Haizhaigou. Ah! It’s such a long glass bridge. It’s probably the worst in the world. We are all elderly people over 60 years old, and there are a few elderly people over 70 years old. Our legs are weak when we get on the bridge, and we feel dizzy when we look down. Looking at the mountains from a distance makes me feel brave. I raise my head to look at the clouds and spread my eyebrows.
Zhuanglang Terraces
__We***48It’s a great project. I remember that we didn’t have large machinery at that time, and we had to rely on our own hands to complete this great project. Human power is the greatest. Look at the development speed of Zhuanglang now, with high-rise buildings rising up like wildfire.
