Tibetan Mountain

According to legend, Zhao Shuo, a minister of the State of Jin, was killed by the Duke of Jin during the Spring and Autumn Period. Before his death, Zhao Shuo entrusted his posthumous orphan to his retainer Cheng Ying. Cheng Ying abandoned his own son and took Zhao Shuo's orphan, Zhao Wu, to hide in Mount Yu for 15 years. Later generations renamed Mount Yu as Mount Cang and built a shrine to worship it. The above is the story of the Orphan of Zhao. Of course, whether this story is true is controversial in itself, not to mention the hiding place. In short, Tibetan mountains are beautiful! The cliffs representing nature, the ancient buildings representing history, and the "ladder to heaven" representing modern technology are integrated together. I like it here very much. Just navigate to "Zangshan", which is located in Yu County, Yangquan, Shanxi (note it is Yu, not Meng!). The ticket I bought + the elevator to the top of the mountain (Figure 8) cost 120 yuan per person. The ticket price seems to be 72 yuan per person. There are also packages that include some entertainment activities, which can be considered if you are traveling with children. It is recommended to buy a car with an elevator, which will make the whole tour smoother in one way. The overall situation of the scenic area is that you first visit the ancient buildings in the canyon. The various small attractions marked on the Gaode map are very complete, and I may not have visited all of them. If you have a lift ticket, take the lift to the top of the mountain and then walk down the steps on the other side. If you don’t have an elevator ticket, you will have to climb up the stairs and then return the same way. The view from the top of the mountain and halfway up the mountain is great, and you can overlook the entire scenery below. Most of the pictures I posted were taken with a camera. If you like photography, remember to bring a medium-to-telephoto lens.
