It was a lot of fun, but it was too hot the day I went, so I only got to the waterfall and only experienced half of it! There were too few staff members, and I couldn't find anyone to ask for directions; I had to ask the business owners inside. Parking is allowed in front of the entrance, and the traffic police don't stop you, which is great.

I have seen many sections of the Great Wall in Beijing, and Guguan is very unique. It is majestic and full of vicissitudes. The deep ruts on the ground quietly tell us its history. My son had a lot of fun. He climbed up the wooden ladder and climbed up the Fengshang Beacon Tower to overlook the surroundings, with temples nearby and mountains in the distance.

Dongzhai Longtan Canyon is a treasure hidden among the mountains and rivers. Walking along the trail, you will see scenery at every step, with birds singing. The canyon, the pool and the waterfall complement each other. You can take beautiful photos in every place. It is a good place for a weekend trip!

Xiaohe Ancient Village Pingmei Scenic Area 2506 is under construction. It is also a village with shops and schools. It is not completely demolished and is a separate scenic spot. There is no ticket inspection fee for the time being. There is a parking lot with poles, but you can drive directly into the Children's Space Park next to the parking lot. The lake is empty and the South Gate Visitor Center is blocked. There is Guandi Temple, Guanyin Temple, Taoran Lake, Red Courtyard, Shi Pingmei Memorial Hall. There are parking lots, pavilions, stone statues, and several courtyards. Most of them are empty and probably being renovated.

Good reviews, rich performances, enthusiastic staff, and a VIP ticket was given due to equipment failure on that day! I would like to make a small immature suggestion. Since it is the theme of Shanxi folk culture, the snack street should have more Shanxi snacks, otherwise the whole country is full of Changsha stinky tofu, hot dry noodles, grilled gluten, grilled sausage, etc. There is no novelty. It is the same wherever you go. It has lost the local characteristics. You can add some Shanxi specialties such as bowl holders, oat noodles, etc., so that guests can have a different experience and enhance the theme.

Pingyang Lake is actually a muddy pool. It may not be like this normally, but now it is the rainy season, the water flow is strong, and there is a lot of mud and sand. The main contents of Pingyang Lake are: one is to enjoy the scenery along the wooden plank road, the second is to take a boat, and the third is to see the Niangziguan Waterfall. It may be because of the high water, there are various small waterfalls along the way. Because of the high water, you can't take a boat, and the waterfall is too far away. Pingyang Lake Scenic Area can go directly to Niangziguan, and there are many small attractions along the way, such as the glass plank road and Niangziguan Waterfall. After watching it, I just hope that the people of Yangquan will be more generous. After all, there are so many coal bosses, and this is not bad.

Highly recommended, it's worth a visit. I thought it would just be a simple visit to the grottoes, but from the moment I entered, it was a completely different world. I also had a very good guide who told us many Buddhist stories and the reasons why they were preserved. The characteristics of each building were very vivid. In my opinion, it is comparable to the Dunhuang Grottoes and is very beautiful.
