    "The "three treasures" in Jinci have the Northern Song Dynasty Notre Dame Palace, the fish marsh Feiliang in front of the temple and the Jin Dynasty Temple, which are all domestic orphans. The "three musts" are the ancient cypress of the Zhou Dynasty for 3,000 years, the colorful plastic lady of the Song Dynasty and the source of Jin water."

    "The only drawback of the historical and cultural place is that the location is relatively biased. The cultural relics on the ground are really not a lie to see Shanxi, but there are many wild tour guides outside the scenic spot, and I personally feel that the protection inside is not in place. There are no warning signs in many places. It feels easy to be spoiled by unqualified tourists"

    "The purchase of tickets for entry and tickets for the temples was very unreasonable. The self-driving tour came to the hanging temple. As a result, the team was queued for a long time but did not buy tickets because they did not buy them. Because the number of tickets was limited, they could not buy them. They did not do enough homework. One of the reasons, unfortunately. 😔"

    "The scenery of Wutai Mountain is still beautiful. I chose the booking of the Trip.com platform again. I can rest assured and feel at ease when I go out. The hotel accommodation part has also been upgraded a lot more than the farmhouse conditions that went to the last time. The number of people in our tour team is not very large. There are only 14 of our group friends in the more than 30-seat car. This trip to Wutai Mountain, I was fortunate to meet Song guide, the explanation and service are very careful, And the monastery visit schedule is flexible, vivid explanation is looking forward to my next trip."

    "The history of the Wang Family Courtyard was understood before I went. I looked at the buildings inside. I felt very stylish. There were a lot of people in the compound. Because there were many people inside, I visited the compound for more than two hours. I didn’t understand the history of the Wang Family Courtyard. It can only be a walk."

    "Self-driving pit avoidance key: Navigate to the north gate, because the core scenic spot is near the north gate of the scenic spot. Don't navigate to the south gate, otherwise you have to take an extra one-way nearly 4 kilometers of mountain climbing trail, and you need to go back and forth, because you need to return to pick up the car. The north gate needs to do small traffic (10 yuan round trip), and then walk hundreds to the north gate of Guancheng. Scenic walking tour route: Guancheng of Qimenguan, in the two mountains and a ditch, built with the mountain, the city wall of Guancheng, into an irregular rectangular shape (or flattened ring), the circumference of more than 5 kilometers. Need to climb for about 2 hours. The north gate of Guancheng is the Austrian Gate, and the south gate is the Tianxian Gate. The two gates are about 100 meters apart. For friends traveling by car, there are three ways to play: the first one, if there are elderly and children, it is recommended to only see two city gates. For tour groups, the tour guide only explained this small paragraph. The second type is better physical strength: from the geopolis gate to the end of the Tianxian gate, climb the east halfway, go to the direction of the Wild Goose Pagoda and the stele forest, go to the geopolis gate downstairs, about an hour, and the west halfway is more challenging and the slope is large. The third type: the whole journey of the Guancheng city wall takes about two hours. From Tianxianmen to the south gate ticket office of the scenic spot, the trail is about 4 kilometers long, and there is nothing to circle the scenic spot. The tour guide map of the scenic spot has a lot of mistakes or misleading, and I hope to improve it."
