As the saying goes, look at Beijing with a culture of 500 years, Xi'an with a culture of 1,000 years, and Shanxi with a culture of 5,000 years. Shanxi is not only rich in mineral resources, but also has good tourism resources. The heritage is basically completely preserved from past dynasties. Let me share with you the summary of Yungang Grottoes, Xuankong Temple, Mount Wutai, Jinci Temple, Qiao Family Courtyard, Pingyao Ancient City, Wang Family Courtyard, Mianshan Mountain, Hongdong Big Sophora Tree, and Hukou Waterfall.

Visit the Shanxi Provincial Museum to experience the 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization, learn about the traces of the Xia and Shang Dynasties, the hegemony of the Jin Dynasty, the legacy of Buddhism, and the culture of the Jin and Shang Dynasties in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

After that, we went to Pingyao Ancient City to enjoy the night view of the ancient city, and watched the Pingyao performance again. During the 90-minute performance time, we experienced one thrilling story after another. Such a shock is indescribable and nothing to add. If you come to Pingyao for tourism, please don't miss it.
A small town full of history, exquisite courtyard houses, mottled ancient city walls, and glorious banks. There are many hotels, inns, and homestays in Pingyao. In the end, I chose Pingyao Jintaisheng Guild Hall, which is recommended by everyone, for accommodation in Pingyao. It is an antique four-entry compound with ancient charm of Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is very beautiful. The courtyard is very clean and the service attitude is good. , the red lanterns hang high, as if taking you back to the past. After sleeping until I woke up naturally, I took a bus from Pingyao to visit the Wang Family Courtyard, which is known as "the first house of Chinese folk houses" and "Chinese Folk Forbidden City", and then went to Mianshan by car. Surrounded by belts, scenic spots and historical sites are dotted, the natural landscape is "strange, dangerous, and beautiful", and the cultural landscape is "ancient, ingenious, and unique". Temples and Taoist temples are mostly built between cliffs and cliffs, and Jiexiu is the place to stay at night.
On the last day, we visited the Big Locust Tree in Hongdong. The Big Locust Tree in Hongdong, Shanxi is a well-known site in the Ming Dynasty at home and abroad. Hukou Waterfall, feel the magnanimity of the Yellow River, unrestrained and unrestrained, you can enjoy the four wonders of Hukou: ancient streams rise from thunder and smoke from the bottom of the water, dragons play with waves, rainbows reach the sky, and then return to Taiyuan by car.
In fact, traveling to Shanxi is a decision made by a small group of people without disappointment. Compared with checking in with Internet celebrities, Shanxi is the most suitable place to appreciate history. The ancient buildings and history of Shanxi are really rarely touched by people, but you Once touched, you will find that he is a treasure.
