Guangwu Great Wall

avatar
渭南松赞干布
Xinguangwu is located on the south side of the Guangwu tomb group 40 kilometers south of Shanyin County, Shuozhou City, Shanxi Province. It was built in Minghongwu and Wanli years and is located 3 kilometers north of Qimenguan. It is an important facility in the Great Wall Defense System. The Great Wall was originally a dirt bag brick, now the brick is no longer, the ancient castle connecting the Great Wall is only left with some city gates and walls.

Yingxian Wooden Pagoda

Yingxian wooden tower, it has a history of more than 900 years. It can't climb the tower anymore, it has been tilted, and it is currently protected. Hurry up and see, maybe you can't visit one day. Ha ha.

Shanxi Xinguangwu Section | Sunrise and sunset to see Beiqi and Ming Great Wall Site 📜 Recommended Destinations: Beiqi and Ming Great Wall Site 💫 Recommended Index: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️📍 Coordinate Location: Under the Anmenguan, Shanyin County, Shuozhou City, Shanxi Province 🎫 Attraction Tickets: Free 🆓, ▪️ Whether to make an appointment: No appointment required, 🗓️ Open Time: All day ⏰ Best time to visit: sunrise or sunset, autumn can be sunny all day. ▪️ It is recommended to dress: casual shoes, the top of the mountain is windy, remember to keep warm. 📝🔺 Recommended reason: ✔️ niche attractions, few people! ✔️ The Great Wall is more complete. 📎 Play tips: 🔸 When we passed, the only toilet at the entrance was closed, so it is recommended to arrange it yourself. 🔹 The Moon Gate once collapsed in October 2016, with only half of the door frame pillar left. This year, that is, August 6, 2020, the old repair process was used to repair the old repair. After 4 years, the long-distant moon door was erected again. However, based on the current principle of cultural relics restoration, the current moon door can see obvious repair marks. 🔸 If you want to walk the ancient Great Wall, it is recommended to choose a morning or noon with sufficient sunshine. You can keep warm in the high wind, and the clothes are mainly to prevent sun and wind. 🔹 In the evening, you can take a silhouette on the side of the moon door.

Guangwu International Ski Resort

皮皮鲁c
Went on weekdays, relatively few people, convenient parking, convenient eating, can stay, KFC in the lobby, the price is about 2 yuan more expensive than outside. Snowshoes, snowboards, snowballs, relatively new, shoes have no particularly big smell. 16 snow roads, hanging baskets, and fishing boxes. Think of Shanxi as the best snow field. Worth a visit. Finally, I took a video at the door.

Yanmenguan

If Yanmen and Taihang love clouds, water birds will never visit Baichuan. Climbing up Yanmen Pass, the wind is howling, the scenery is magnificent and pleasant. It was winter when I went there, and the warm winter sun was a different flavor. It is very convenient to buy tickets on Ctrip and the admission process. Good review (o^^o)

Pure Land Temple

Jingtu Temple is not far from the exit of Yingxian Muta Sakya Tower. The entrance is the parking place of Datong Tourism Line. If the time is arranged, it can save a lot of things. The algae well of the Jingtu Temple Grand Hall and the stone lions distributed by the beheads in the courtyard are the treasures that Mr. Liang Sicheng will never forget.

You won’t give up until you visit the Great Wall, but when you get there you will feel weak, hahaha. The scenery is really nice, the ancient people were really amazing. Praise. Praise. Praise. Praise. Praise. Praise. Praise. Praise.

Han Tombs at Guangwu

Guangwuhan tomb group is the cemetery of the soldiers on the edge of the Han Dynasty. It is located in the mountainy yin, the heavy ground of ancient war. The Han Dynasty army and the Hunnu fought here repeatedly. In 1988, the Guangwu tomb group was announced as the third batch of "national security".

The Summer Palace

黑色弥漫
It is so convenient to buy tickets on Ctrip. You can enter the park by swiping your ID card or QR code. I bought tickets around the winter solstice to go to see the Golden Light Cave. There were a lot of people, especially the Tower of Buddhist Incense. I will continue to go to the Summer Palace if I have the chance.
