Taiyuan is really great, I will definitely travel here again next time

Taiyuan is really great, I will definitely travel here again Travel by train🚄 Taiyuan to Shijiazhuang train 35.5 There are no trams in Taiyuan, only shared bicycles! Try to hail a taxi through a platform. There are direct buses to many places, including from the train station to Jinci and the Botanical Garden. Bus 308 can take you to many places, refer to Amap for details. Delicious food🍜 I've eaten a lot of snacks, but didn't get to try the old Taiyuan restaurant because it was too crowded and I couldn't get a number. If you really want to try it, make sure to go early. It's near the entrance of Zhonglou Street, very close. Snack recommendations 1⃣️ Leaky Fish: Sour, spicy, and smooth, very delicious, it doesn't feel like super sour vinegar, it's sweet and slippery. Only six yuan!!! 2⃣️ Bowl Tuo: You can split it yourself, it has a very unique texture, and the sauce is more or less the same, also quite tasty. Five yuan 3⃣️ Sea Buckthorn Juice: Sour and sweet, I really like it, feels very appetizing, and you can find it in many places on the street. Five yuan 4⃣️ Cold Cake, Egg Fermented Rice Wine: Bought at the Mouse Hole, only three yuan, tastes similar to zongzi, but also topped with a layer of osmanthus sauce. The egg fermented rice wine is not sweet, very nice to drink, I didn't order the sweet rice balls because I read in the travel guide that they are too sweet, but this fermented rice wine is really good and only six yuan. 5⃣️ God's Fried Chicken: Two people can just buy one, I thought it was small and bought two, but it's bigger than a face!!! 56 for two. My first impression was that it's expensive, but it took a long time to finish eating, the skin is crispy, just a bit salty. Avoid these🙅🙅🙅 1⃣️ Dipped Skewers Not very tasty, two people ate twenty-one, I didn't see what was written on it, the first line was one yuan for three skewers, the following was three yuan per skewer, and then it turned out to be three yuan, and the sauce, besides the vinegar being very sour, everything else tasted the same. The one I ate at wasn't good. 2⃣️ Knife-Cut Noodles Maybe I didn't choose the right one, it tasted like homemade noodles, the noodles were chewy, just the sauce on top wasn't tasty. Attractions top1 Jinci It's really super big, Jinci Park is already very large, free of charge, and super beautiful, with lakes, flowers and grass, and pavilions, very photogenic.📷 top2 Taiyuan Botanical Garden🎆 The starry sky elevator is absolutely beautiful, but be sure to note that once the lights are on, it's basically impossible to go up because many people are queuing. You can also take beautiful photos from below. The indoor pavilions are also very good, but it's very crowded during holidays, so the experience isn't that great. It's pretty good in itself, you can take a car in the scenic area, ten yuan for a round trip. Be sure to note⚠️ if you're not driving there, it's best to leave early, because everyone comes out around eight or nine o'clock, and it's impossible to get a taxi. We tried for a long time, and then walked back, a strenuous five kilometers, luckily the exit wasn't too far.
