Yuncheng is great! I'll come again next time!

Yuncheng city really amazed me. I had only heard about the warm hospitality of the people in Shanxi, and it's true!! Due to limited time, I just wandered around to get a feel for the local customs. I only visited some places close to where I was staying, and there are many attractions I didn't get to photograph. But the impression it left was really great. The locals are particularly warm, and everyone makes you feel like they're your own aunt or uncle. The food portions are huge and delicious! You must visit the morning market~ a paradise of carbs haha, Yongji is also great~ the beef dumplings are so fragrant~ and the dumpling soup is also amazing! We ordered a two-person serving of big plate chicken and couldn't finish it, and there are many other delicious foods that are very affordable. The spicy hot pot I tried was also good! Xinghe Night Market~ you can't go wrong with any stall you choose! Overall, the experience was very good. Next time, I'll definitely go on a road trip. The attractions are quite scattered, so it's more convenient to drive. Highlight! The UV rays are strong~ my friends who went had done their sun protection, and I've already tanned two shades. The homestay I stayed at was also nice~ the environment was very cozy, and the room was very clean... About the sightseeing route: Catholic Church, Guanwang Temple Street, Drum Tower 1. A super number of people are taking pictures at the Catholic Church. 2. You can enter Guanwang Temple directly by swiping your ID card. 3. There are comedy shows in the ancient street every night, which are free to listen to and acceptable. About accommodation I stayed at the Yellow River Building, but you can also choose the nearby Yado. Personally, I think the beds here are so hard! Chi Shen Temple, China's Dead Sea, 1. The exterior of Chi Shen Temple is quite nice to look at, and you can buy tickets directly from a group, but I didn't go in because I feel temples are all similar. Those interested can go in and have a look. 2. It's really worth it to visit the Dead Sea salt pools! I picked the right time, from 5:30 to 6:00 you can see the sunset. There were people taking wedding photos, and others purely enjoying the sunset. It was so beautiful, the last time I saw such a beautiful sunset was in Tangqi Ancient Town in Hangzhou.
