6-Day In-Depth Tour of Xinzhou, Datong, and Shuozhou: So Beautiful You Won't Want to Leave

Hey guys! Here's a 6-day itinerary for exploring the wonders of Xinzhou, Datong, and Shuozhou! This is all you need to know to explore these three places! -- 🏃Itinerary: Day 1: Chengdu—Linfen—Pingyao Depart from Chengdu, arrive in Linfen, and then head to Pingyao. On the first day, you'll travel across three provinces and experience the customs of different regions. Enjoy free time in the evening in Pingyao Ancient City and experience the nightlife of the ancient city. Day 2: Mount Wutai Spend the whole day visiting Mount Wutai, visiting temples, experiencing Buddhist culture, enjoying the tranquility of the mountains, and feeling the cleansing of your soul. Day 3: Yungang Grottoes Head to the Yungang Grottoes to explore the thousand-year-old Buddhist art treasures, appreciate the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient craftsmen, and feel the weight of history and the inheritance of culture. Day 4: Guangwu Great Wall Climb the Guangwu Great Wall, enjoy the scenery of the frontier, feel the grandeur of the Great Wall and the vicissitudes of history, and experience a different kind of Great Wall tour. Day 5: Wang Family Courtyard Visit the Wang Family Courtyard, learn about Shanxi merchant culture, appreciate the exquisite architecture and ingenious layout of the courtyard, and feel the charm of traditional family culture. Day 6: Linfen—Chengdu Depart from Linfen, return to Chengdu, and end your pleasant trip to Shanxi. Return home with a wealth of memories. -- Tips: - Food: Shuozhou lamb offal and Datong knife-cut noodles are authentic Shanxi flavors you won't want to miss! 🍜 - Local customs: Experience Buddhist art at the Yungang Grottoes in Datong, and enjoy paper cutting and temple fairs in Xinzhou. 🎉 - Souvenir prices: Datong coal carvings are unique souvenirs, and Xinzhou Shenchi mooncakes are sweet and delicious. Both are reasonably priced, so take some home! 🎁 - Airport transportation: Datong Airport is convenient, so plan your route in advance for a more worry-free trip. 🚗 -- We left our footprints under the ancient city walls of Datong; our laughter echoed in the beautiful mountains and rivers of Xinzhou; and the customs of Shuozhou warmed our journey. 🎉 Although the journey is over, the beautiful memories will last forever! 🎉
