Yuntai Mountain wants to go all the way and needs at least a whole day, and the physical exertion will be very large.

    "Where to get off by car? Where to stop by car? If you want to pass customs Wenxuan or famous card, take the car downstairs at Guangsheng Temple, self-driving navigation Guangsheng Temple Visitor Center, only from here, you can go to the shuttle bus to pick up what you want.

Xia Temple only to see the water temple? The water temple mural of Xia Temple is one of the three best in Guangsheng Temple, but the Huoquan in front of the water temple is crystal clear, and the water in front of the split pavilion is also a friend who likes water conservancy. Although the murals of the Daxiong Temple after the water temple were sold, several Buddha statues in the mural exhibition hall after the story of the water temple on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, we clearly showed all the murals of Guangsheng Temple in high-definition, it is worth a look. 5. Shang Temple only sees the Feihong Tower? The Feihong Pagoda is in front of the central axis of the Shang Temple. It was built in the East Han Dynasty. It is now built in Mingzhong. It is the highest in the world and the most well-preserved colorful glazed octagonal tower. Look carefully at the next three floors, but the temples behind the tower are wonderful [Mituo Temple] for the Western Sansheng as the original thing in the Yuan Dynasty. Here is the original Zhaocheng Jinzang. The current National Library [Daxiong Palace] Buddha statue is a pure wood carving, focusing on the expression of the Jiaye on the right of the main Buddha, the human movement on the right of Puxian, and the hollow iron Buddha statue around the temple [Pilu Temple] also called Tianzhongtian, focusing on the short roof, fine doors and windows, the Sumi under the three Buddhas, the expression of the four Bodhisattvas, There are also surrounding murals [Di Tibetan Palace] Hell Road suspension, the expression and action of the sharp ghost [Weituo Palace] sitting in the Weituo country is rare, the left-test mural is the essence of the temple, the right side carrying a school bag is also very interesting 6. How to explain? Don't want to explain things on holidays. Before you come, you must take a look at the same as Hui. It is a great explanation.

    "Between the two courtyards of Wang's family and Qiao's family, the former was decisively chosen for the following reasons: First, the ticket price, Wang's 50, Qiao's 115, is more than double. Second, in the landscape, Wang's family is bigger than Qiao's family, the content is richer, and there are more things to see. Third, compared to Qiao's family, the commercialization is not too serious."

Pingyao Ancient City is the most complete ancient city in China, with a long history of 2,800 years, 1997 and the surrounding Shuanglin Temple, Zhenguo Temple was determined as a world cultural heritage.

After the reconstruction of Pingyao Ancient City in Minghongwu three years (1370 AD), it basically maintained the original pattern. It is said that the current ancient city has a strong commercial atmosphere, and Pingyao is no exception. The beef stew vinegar and the small grandmother of Jinshang on the street are more willing to call him fireworks. The ancient city still lives in more than 40,000 Aboriginal people. At the corner of the bustling commercial street, there are many remote alleys, many old houses that have been in disrepair for a long time, and electric cars are endless. The living environment and the main street are the difference between the sky and the world. Maybe this is the real Pingyao Ancient City."
