2026 Heyang Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in August)

July ran to Weinan, really by Huashan and Korean City when the loess mixed with pepper flavor attracted to 🌞 compiled a just finished stepping points of the essay, four boards think where to write to where, the order is random, use yourself feel convenient to take away ~ 📸 Take pictures beautiful places to talk about, after all, taking pictures is the serious thing Huashan Mountain West Peak cliff wearing a bright dress, the sea of ​​clouds that day directly sealed the god ⛰️ East Peak sunrise and other that "Phnom Penh" do not press the shutter so hastily, the sun is a finger wide from the sea of ​​clouds when the color is most transparent, mobile phones must hang a rope, the wind can really blow you away. The late blue hour of the ancient city of Hancheng stands at the bottom of the archway. The reeds of the Virgin Spring in Chachuan, walking against the light in the morning S-shaped wooden canyon, white dress and straw hat, the "蒹葭苍苍" in the poetry scripture is directly embodied 🌾 The observation deck at the turn of the Yellow River at Tongguan, the evening light sweeps over, the silhouette of the Guanlou with the water of the Yellow River, the atmosphere does not need to be adjusted. ⚠️ Guide to avoiding pits, blood and tears in exchange Those "low-price tour guides" "internal passage free tickets" wild guides at the foot of Mount Hua, all shake their heads, their lives are not worth those few steps 🙅‍♀️ Cableway tickets and summit accommodation are full in July and August, locked on the trip three or five days in advance, temporary to the window will really cry. Long sky canyon to pay separately for safety ropes, gloves must be brought, iron chain long-term rust plus climber sweat, do not wear home palms are all printed. Don't take "private boats" by the Yellow River, regular docks are safe; Do not step down deep on wetland beach paint, as the low tide edge is easy to sink. July climb Huashan sunscreen three treasures (ice sleeves + sun hat + spray) welded on the face, scenic mineral water is twice as expensive as the mountain down, carry two yourself, and add a cucumber-flavored infusion to supplement salt. Cave shoes can't be used for night climbing. Non-slip shoes with headlamps and a thin jacket can make you feel cold in the morning at the top of the mountain. 🗺️ I arranged the route like this, three days and two nights not rushed Day1 High-speed rail down to Huashan North Station (don't buy the wrong Huashan Station is ordinary speed), the scenic spot connects to the visitor center, West Peak Cableway → South Peak (the highest one) → East Peak → Middle Peak → North Peak Cableway down, the whole journey of five or six hours, legs still use the version. Go down the hill and stay in Huayin, and walk around Yuquan Courtyard at night. Day2 Early bus to Korea City, Sima Qian Temple climb 99 steps overlooking the Yellow River, follow the Party Village to see the Ming and Qing courtyard brick carvings, in the evening back to Korea City Ancient City to stay one night, the red lantern street night shadow beautiful. Day3 Korean City ride an hour and a half to Heyang Chachuan, Virgin Spring bamboo raft through reeds, soak a spring, noon wetland farmhouse eat Yellow River big carp, afternoon by the way to Tongguan ancient city to see the Yellow River turn, then back to Xi'an retreat. If you think three days is too rushed, you can delete Chachuan. Two days of specializing in Huashan and Korea City are enough. Booking tickets and booking rooms I locked together on Ctrip, which is more worry-free than on-site. 🍜 In terms of food, Weinan is a true carbohydrate paradise Tongguan meat sandwich dumplings recognize triangular flat dumplings, the kind of thousand-layer pastry bite down to fall off the residue, the sandwich is the five flowers are not pure lean, fragrant but not greasy🥙 Hua Yin Da Dao Noodles are as wide as a trouser belt, splashed with oil and spicy, and can eat two bowls with garlic cloves. The lamb dumplings in Koreatown are sour and spicy, with a plate of cold wild vegetables to relieve the thirst, and pepper yogurt (sounds dark but unexpectedly goes well with barbecue), the red and sweet noodles are sweet noodles that local old ladies will ask you to try. Pu Cheng Shui Basin Lamb Soup with Crescent Mooncake with Sugar Garlic. The bowl in the morning will be powerful all day long. Heyang's buckwheat whole grain, sour and spicy appetizer, is known as "the earliest instant noodles". Souvenir Fuping persimmon cake choose frosted white (those is sugar not sulfur, smell sweet is right), Korean city big red pao pepper to bring home two bags of hot pot. Snack shops first look at the price tag before ordering. You can recognize the sesame burrito in "Golden City Lane" in the ancient city. Oh yes, inside Sima Qian's temple to remove hats, do not cross outside the yellow line, do not touch the brick carvings in the old courtyard of Party Family Village, basic etiquette walking in a circle no one will tell you👌 The biggest feeling after this trip to Weinan is that it is not as crowded as Xi'an, nor as desolate as northern Shaanxi. Just do a good sunscreen in July, leave the rest to the mountains and wind.

Located in the eastern part of Heyang County, Weinan City, Shaanxi Province, the Qiachuan Scenic Area is the largest riverside wetland in the Yellow River basin and is known as the "Little Jiangnan." It boasts an endless expanse of 100,000 mu of reed marshes, acclaimed as the "Number One Marsh in the World." In early summer, the vast lotus ponds and lush green reeds complement each other beautifully, presenting a northern water town scene reminiscent of the poem "Endless green lotus leaves reaching the sky." For travelers from Zhengzhou, Henan, this destination offers convenient transportation and is an excellent weekend getaway to escape the city's hustle and seek poetic charm. 🚗 Transportation Guide: Easy Access from Zhengzhou Driving is the most convenient and flexible way to reach Qiachuan Wetland from Zhengzhou. The journey is about 350 kilometers. Set your navigation to "Qiachuan Scenic Area," take the Lianhuo Expressway (G30) westward, then switch to the Jingkun Expressway (G5) to reach the Heyang exit. From there, follow the tourist route directly to the scenic area. The total driving time is approximately 4.5 hours. If you prefer public transportation, take a high-speed train from Zhengzhou to Xi’an North Station. Then, from Xi’an Textile City Bus Station, board a shuttle bus to Heyang (about one every 40 minutes). Upon arrival at Heyang Bus Center, take a local taxi for about 30 minutes to reach Qiachuan Scenic Area. 🗺️ Touring Route: Immersive Journey Through the Vast Reed Marsh The core sightseeing area of Qiachuan is concentrated in the **Spring Scenic Area, which perfectly blends wetland ecology with poetic charm. The classic tour route is designed as a loop with "waterway entry and land exit," allowing visitors to enjoy boating through the reeds and strolling along the boardwalk to feel the gentle breeze. Classic slow travel route (recommended duration: 4-5 hours): After entering the **Spring Scenic Area, first take a painted boat or speedboat deep into the reed marsh. As the boat glides over the water, reeds on both sides ripple in the wind, and water birds occasionally skim the surface, as if stepping into the timeless scene from the "Guanju" poem in the Book of Songs: "Guan guan cry the ospreys, on the islet in the river." Upon reaching the heart of the wetland, disembark and walk along the wooden boardwalk. The boardwalk weaves between ten miles of lotus ponds and vast reed marshes, with sunshades along the way. Strolling here, you can closely admire blooming lotus flowers and gaze at the majestic Yellow River in the distance. Featured Experience: In the reed marsh, visitors can switch to bamboo rafts for a drifting experience, enjoying the tranquil time of "boating and fishing among the reeds." The area is home to over a hundred rare bird species, including red-crowned cranes, black storks, and swans, making it a paradise for birdwatching and photography enthusiasts. After the tour, you can visit the natural hot spring (Fenquan) within the scenic area for a "sand wave bath." The spring water maintains a constant temperature of about 30°C year-round, rich in various trace elements. The water is buoyant, and the spring’s flow stirs the sand, effectively washing away travel fatigue. 🏡 Food and Accommodation Recommendations: Savor the Ancient Xin Kingdom’s Cultural Flavor The dining options around the scenic area mainly feature authentic Yellow River fish delicacies and farmhouse dishes. Must-try specialties include braised black carp, fish head stew, and the local specialty Jiuyan lotus root, all sourced from the wetland, offering a crisp and fresh taste. For accommodation, travelers seeking a high-quality experience can choose the "Xin Kingdom · Bieyuan" guesthouse located on the north side of the scenic area. Nestled within the ancient Xin Kingdom cultural garden, it offers views of the reed marsh and clear streams right from the window, with an elegant courtyard perfectly recreating the charm of Jiangnan’s ancient style. Budget-conscious visitors can opt for nearby farmhouses to experience simple rural life. ⚠️ Travel Tips · Best Season: Suitable year-round. Summer is the golden period to enjoy the vast lotus blooms and cool off; autumn’s reed flowers create a unique vast and romantic atmosphere. · Gear Suggestions: The wetland has extensive water areas and strong UV rays, so bring sun-protective clothing, hats, and sunglasses. Comfortable sports shoes are recommended for walking the boardwalk. · Safety Tips: When boating or bamboo rafting, always follow staff instructions and wear life jackets. Please protect the wetland ecology during your visit—do not disturb birds or pick flowers and plants.

#SeptemberGoodPlaces2025 In Qiachuan Scenic Area, where the Yellow River and the Yanze Lake meet, vast reed marshes undulate in the wind, resembling a green ocean. A misty morning shrouded the waterway, and I sailed in a small boat. Egrets fluttered their wings, and the water shimmered. The distant mountains were azure, and water birds chirped, creating a scene of flowing ink painting. After landing, I walked along the wooden plank road, feeling the soft waterweed beneath my feet and the breath of nature filling my ears. At dusk, the setting sun painted the lake crimson, golden light shimmered on the tips of the reeds, and the wind rustled like a song.

The village is surrounded by Fushan, Shoushan, and Lushan, making it a feng shui treasure.

|A Buddhist and Taoist holy land. Wudi Mountain Forest Park is a famous mountain in Heyang County and a Buddhist and Taoist holy land. It covers a total area of more than 600 square kilometers, with the highest point at an altitude of 1,548.3 meters. It is also called Liangshan by locals. The mountain is mainly composed of water rocks, with many peaks, stones, trees, grass, and cultural relics. The folk song "Thousand Buddha Cave, Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda, Zhaoying Stele, Sleeping to Watch the Yellow River Wind Grinding, Seventy-two Golden Water Buckets" describes the main attractions on the mountain. Descend from the south side of Shengxiantai and head northeast, stepping on the stone-paved "Shendao", where there is a strange stone, shaped like a giant dragon about to fly, called "Shenlong Tan Hai"; another strange stone, like a crouching frog, gathering strength, waiting for an opportunity to leap, is said to predict cloudy and rainy weather, called "Jinchan Mingyu". Continue along the Shendao to see "Mata Leishi Cliff", where Emperor Wu rode his horse. Behind the mountain is Fangma Valley, where there is a spring, where Emperor Wu released his horse, and also the source of Jinshui. Strange stones and peaks, full of spiritual energy, allow you to appreciate the wonders of nature in the midst of magnificence and release your mind in a compact life.

|Visit a brick pagoda from the Song dynasty. Daxiang Temple Pagoda was built in the Song dynasty and was originally part of Daxiang Temple. The temple was destroyed during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, but the pagoda still stands. The pagoda is 13 stories tall and about 30 meters high, and is a square brick pagoda with dense eaves. The first story has a dougong (bracket) under the eaves, which is a rare design in similar buildings. There is an arched door on the west side of the first story. Inside, you can see a square courtyard made of blue bricks and a blurred Buddha niche on the wall. The top of the pagoda's central room is a dome made of bricks, with six layers forming a pyramid-shaped "treasure cover." The first, third, and fifth layers are decorated with five diamond-shaped teeth, while the other layers are flat bricks. The pagoda you see now has been restored. Before restoration, the pagoda was tilted to the northeast, with a vertical tilt angle of 3.51°. Address: Loess Plateau, northeast of Anyang Village, Chengguan Subdistrict, Heyang County, Weinan City, Shaanxi Province Transportation: After navigating to Daxiang Temple Pagoda, you need to walk or drive about 200 meters uphill to reach the pagoda.

|Legendary Feng Shui Building. Qianjin Tower, also known as Baiyi Temple Tower, is a national key cultural relic protection unit located in Tianhe Garden, southeast of Heyang County. It was built in the 37th year of the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty (1609 AD) and was built with a donation of 1,000 taels of silver by Kang Shouji, a native of Huaili, the county seat, hence the name "Qianjin Tower." It is an octagonal, 13-story, dense-eave, hollow brick Feng Shui tower. The bottom floor of the tower is 3.3 meters long on each side, with an arched door in the middle of the north side, with the words "Qianjin Tower" on the lintel. Under the eaves of the bottom floor, there are brick carvings of dougong, eaves, and hanging flower columns. The tower is made of blue bricks with eaves, and the bottom has diamond teeth. There are north-south arched windows on the second, sixth, and tenth floors, and east-west arched windows on the fourth and eighth floors. The top is pointed, the tower is gone, and the tower is about 27 meters high. This tower belongs to the Feng Shui tower type building. According to the Qinglong Ben "Heyang County Complete Records": "(County seat) There is a mountain in the southeast, there is a Kuixing Temple on the mountain, there is a Qianjin Tower in the west of the temple, and Wanli Yixi Yimin Kang Shouji donated 1,000 gold to build it." It can be seen that the tower is an auxiliary building of Kuixing Temple, and it is named after Kang Shouji alone donated "Qianjin." The people of the time built this tower with the intention of supplementing the literary context of Heyang. Address: Tianhe Garden, Heyang County, Weinan City, Shaanxi Province Transportation: Take Heyang 102 Road to Yujing Haoting Station, and walk to this historic brick tower

The sky breeze suddenly carries the fragrance of lotus, and a leaf floats in memory of my hometown. This is the landmark building in my hometown: Heyang Weinan Confucian Temple, located opposite the Heyang County People's Government. It was founded in the eighth year of the Yuan Dynasty (1093) in the Northern Song Dynasty. It is a group of ancient buildings from the Song and Ming Dynasties with historical and artistic value. The main buildings include Yucheng Hall, Minglun Hall, Zunjing Pavilion, two rooms, two verandas and two wings. Walking into this ancient building complex that has stood majestically in the small county town for more than 900 years, looking at its exquisite red walls and black tiles, cornices and brackets, carved beams and painted columns, can you feel its simplicity, vicissitudes, and Its grace and splendor cannot be concealed by the years. Friends who have not been to this treasure place should go quickly. Tip: Because it is located in the center of the former county, there are many snacks in the side streets, so you don’t need to bring water or food.
