The city that shocked me the most so far has appeared.

I usually don't use "shocking" to describe a place, but Shanxi is an exception! Those ancient building cornices that can be seen everywhere, those historical relics from the Northern Wei, Liao and Jin Dynasties... Colored sculptures, wood carvings, murals, colored glaze... Of the 36 real-life shooting locations in "Black Myth Wukong", 27 are located in Shanxi. Only when we set foot on this land in person can we truly experience the ultimate beauty of this thousand-year heritage ~ Shanxi currently has many tourists! 🗺️In order to avoid crowds, I chose a different travel route. Remember to save this article when you see it! Day 1-2: Luliang Lijiashan Village-Qikou Ancient Town-Xiwan Village ✅The ancient buildings, cave dwellings, and traces of generations of life on the Loess Plateau... It is recommended to live in Lijiashan Village, which has fewer people and low accommodation costs. It is only a 13-minute drive from Qikou. Day 3-4: Datong Yungang Grottoes-Huayan Temple-Shanhua Ancient Temple-Yongan Temple ✅These buildings perfectly retain the styles of Liao, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and many attractions are open for free! The splendor of the grotto is breathtaking. Yungang Grottoes opens at 9 o'clock, so the first batch to enter can avoid the crowds! Shanhua and Yongan temples have the best light in the afternoon. Day 5-6: Pingyao Ancient City in Jinzhong-Shuanglin Temple-Zhenguo Temple ✅It is said that the ancient city has been preserved to this day because it was "too poor to demolish". It is one of the most complete ancient county towns currently preserved. "The Majia Courtyard in Pingyao is the best place to take pictures! In the morning, go to Shuanglin Temple and Zhenguo Temple first."
