Shanxi Province is rich in tourism resources, has many cultural and historical sites, and naturally has many interesting places.
For example, the seven AAAAA-level tourist attractions in Shanxi - Yungang Grottoes, Mount Wutai, Yanmen Pass, Pingyao Ancient City, Qiao Family Courtyard, Imperial City Prime Minister's Mansion, and Mianshan - are all attractions not to be missed when traveling to Shanxi.
In addition to these scenic spots, there are many unique scenic spots and attractions worth visiting in various prefectures and cities in Shanxi. Below, I will introduce them to you by city.
1. Taiyuan Taiyuan is not only the provincial capital of Shanxi, but also a famous historical and cultural city. Attractions such as Jinci Temple, Shanxi Museum, Chongshan Temple, Mengshan Giant Buddha, and Tianlongshan Grottoes are particularly attractive.
In addition, friends who are interested in vinegar culture may wish to visit the East Lake Vinegar Garden.
2. Datong In addition to the famous Yungang Grottoes, Hengshan Mountain, one of the Five Mountains, and the stunning Hanging Temple are also located in Datong.
A visit to this city will definitely make your trip worthwhile.
3. Jinzhong If you want to visit the ancient city and see the Shanxi merchant compound, Jinzhong is a stop you must not miss.
Pingyao Ancient City, Qiao Family Courtyard, Wang Family Courtyard, Chang Family Manor... After you are tired of visiting the ancient city courtyard, don’t forget to go to Mianshan to see the beautiful landscape!
4. Wutai Mountain, a famous Buddhist mountain in Xinzhou, naturally needs no further introduction.
However, in addition to Wutai Mountain, Xinzhou also has many well-known and interesting places, such as Yanmen Pass, Laoniu Bay, Luya Mountain, etc.
5. Shuozhou Shuozhou is an ancient and famous city outside the Great Wall. Unique sights such as Shahukou, the Ancient Great Wall, and Yingxian Wooden Pagoda quietly tell the long history of this place.
6. Changzhi When it comes to Changzhi, my most recommended place is the Taihang Mountain Grand Canyon. It has beautiful mountains and clear waters, is cool and comfortable, and is very suitable for summer vacation.
7. Jincheng Wangmangling in Jincheng is also a summer resort on the Taihang Mountains.
In addition, scenic spots such as Mang River and Imperial City Prime Minister's Mansion are also very interesting and are recommended.
8. Luliang There are many red tourist attractions built in the old revolutionary area of ??Luliang, such as Liu Hulan Memorial Hall, Shanxi-Sui Border Area Revolutionary Memorial Hall, etc.
In addition, in Luliang, tourists will also have the opportunity to appreciate the wonders of the Yellow River, climb the majestic mountains, and visit the Fenjiu Culture Park... 9. Linfen Speaking of scenic spots in Linfen, I recommend the Hukou Waterfall of the Yellow River in Ji County.
The rolling water of the Yellow River rushes down, which is shocking.
10. Yuncheng Yuncheng is one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization and the hometown of "Martial Saint" Guan Yu.
When you come to Yuncheng, you must not miss the Jiezhou Guandi Temple, Stork Tower, Pujiu Temple and other scenic spots.
11. Yangquan Although Yangquan is not a big city, there are many interesting attractions around it. I personally recommend Zangshan Mountain where Cheng Ying hid the Zhao orphans, and the famous Niangzi Pass on the Great Wall.
People say that Shanxi has beautiful scenery, fertile land, beautiful water, and fragrant grains. The left hand points to the Taihang Mountains, and the right hand points to Luliang... Shanxi, a city with good fortune and beauty, hides too many beautiful scenery that we yearn for but don't know.
Xiyagou hanging wall highway Xiyagou hanging wall highway is located in the hinterland of Taihang Mountains, at the junction of Shanxi and Henan provinces.
It is the pioneer of the wall-hanging road in the Taihang Mountains. Xiyagou people used hammers, drills, and their own hands to carve out a wall-hanging road on the cliff!
Here there are criss-crossing streets, high terraces, gurgling streams, and ancient bridges... The beautiful scenery of Wangmangling where Xiyagou is located is even more unique. The sea of ??clouds and mountains are side by side. It is suspected of being a fairyland, but it is better than a fairyland.
Address: Pingshun County, Changzhi City, Shanxi Province Tickets: Free Taihang Mountain Grand Canyon. There are steep cliffs, various rocks, and vivid cave wonders. It looks like Zhangjiajie when you look up, and Jiuzhaigou when you look down.
Here, everything you can see is beautiful scenery, and every step you take is a paradise on earth.
Not every place can be like the Taihang Mountain Grand Canyon. The unique natural resources have created the natural style of the Taihang Mountain Grand Canyon.
