    "How can you not go to Yungang Grottoes when you come to Datong? Yungang Grottoes, one of the three major grottoes in China. Just for this name, you must go. When you go to Yungang Grottoes, you must listen to the explanation, don't go around, let alone take pictures and leave. Going to Yungang Grottoes is to see its culture, not to see a Buddha statue. Try not to go on weekends or holidays because there are too many people. If you have to go when there are too many people, don't take a taxi because there will be traffic jams. You can take the 3 bus, the bus will not be so blocked. Although the tickets are a bit expensive, it is worth seeing. In summer, you must bring good sun protection, and the sun in Datong is too good. What I especially like is that the rest chairs in the whole scenic area can be seen everywhere, and there are many swing chairs, sitting on them, shaking, blowing the wind, it feels too comfortable."

    "This ticket is just a ticket to enter, you can see the panoramic view of the suspension temple, you need to buy another ticket for the landing ticket, if you just want to take a panoramic view of the suspension temple, it is enough to not board this ticket. The suspension temple is built on the cliffs, and the wooden structure is really amazing from the bottom up. It is not easy to preserve the Northern Wei so far. Li Bai wrote spectacular, and adding a lot of strong words is the feeling that ordinary spectacularness can no longer be expressed."

    "The scenery of Wutai Mountain is still beautiful. I chose the booking of the Trip.com platform again. I can rest assured and feel at ease when I go out. The hotel accommodation part has also been upgraded a lot more than the farmhouse conditions that went to the last time. The number of people in our tour team is not very large. There are only 14 of our group friends in the more than 30-seat car. This trip to Wutai Mountain, I was fortunate to meet Song guide, the explanation and service are very careful, And the monastery visit schedule is flexible, vivid explanation is looking forward to my next trip."

    "The price of the ticket in summer feels high, and it is incomprehensible that the child is also a full-price ticket. There are still a lot of people. I have been queuing up for a long time to take the ropeway. I can't do it without doing it. There is a line, the ropeway, and there are various cars behind. All of them are in the fare. If you don't queue up, you have to walk for a long time. It is very big. So you can only queue up when the summer is hot. The slides inside, all the rides are at your own expense, and you can pay in addition. The performance behind feels like you don't see it. It's boring to sell words and paintings."

    "The only volcano known to have erupted in Inner Mongolia tens of thousands of years ago, about 400 kilometers away from Beijing, and the convenience of transportation has also led to the travel boom in recent years, especially the spacesuit photography of Nandan Lianlu (Volcano No. 6) is a social platform "net red" project. Due to the long-term state of "wild attractions", self-driving tours have been the main. However, with the increase of tourists, there has been serious traffic jams on holidays. At present, the scenic spot has begun to be repaired. It is said that private cars will be banned from driving in soon, and the shuttle bus will be transported uniformly. Personally feel that the volcanic scenery is still quite magnificent, if you want to charge standard management is not necessarily a bad thing, but it is really not worth paying too much money."
