    It was alright. The hygiene was decent, the weather was quite chilly, there wasn't much snow when I came, and there weren't many tourists. It was quite comfortable to sunbathe on the mountaintop.

    Xinghan Scenic Area was truly breathtaking! The Han-style palace complex was magnificent and exquisitely detailed, making me feel as if I had traveled back to the powerful Han Dynasty. The indoor exhibits were splendid, and the large-scale performance "Legend of the Heavenly Han" was incredibly captivating; I couldn't take my eyes off it for a second!

    Thousand Buddha Cliff is a relatively important scenic spot in Guangyuan City, Sichuan Province. How can you not visit it? Thousand Buddha Cliff is located on the banks of the Jialing River. The scenery is very beautiful, but many of the grottoes have been destroyed, which is a pity. It is still worth recommending.

    Huangze Temple is located in Lizhou District, Guangyuan City, Sichuan Province. It is the only temple dedicated to Wu Zetian, the only female emperor in Chinese history. Those who are interested can visit it. There is information about the history of the Wu family and a portrait of Wu Zetian. The visit takes about 2 hours.

    Although most of the buildings were reconstructed in 2008, they still allow visitors to understand the history of this ancient city. Several thousand-year-old cypress trees within the ancient city are truly magnificent. The ancient city is not large; with a combined ticket covering several attractions, you can quickly explore it all.

    3 Days 2 Nights Leisurely Tour of Langzhong | A Thousand-Year-Old City Embraced by the Jialing River, Worth Savoring at a Slow Pace! ✨ Recommendation Index: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 📍 Core Experiences: Three Kingdoms Culture + Feng Shui Charm + Local Delicacies, Avoiding the Routine for a More Enjoyable Experience! 【Transportation & Accommodation】 Driving is Super Convenient! A direct 3-hour drive from Chengdu. Park at the South Gate Visitor Center or Spring Festival Cultural Square, and walk 10 minutes into the city. Don't believe those roadside "parking guides." For accommodation, I chose a guesthouse just 100 meters outside the ancient city – excellent value! Parking was available downstairs, and the price was half that of inside the ancient city, plus no soundproofing issues like wooden houses. For nighttime photos, choose a river-view room; remember to bring a dehumidifier to combat humidity! 【Must-Visit Spots】 ▪️ Climb Huaguang Tower! The "First Building of Langyuan" truly lives up to its name. Watching the sunset at dusk, the Jialing River shimmers, and the endless expanse of green-tiled rooftops creates a breathtaking scene – perfect for photos without needing editing. ▪️ The Sichuan Provincial Examination Hall is incredibly immersive. Standing in the examination cells feels like stepping back in time, and experiencing a "mock exam" in period costume is incredibly fun. ▪️ Don't miss the "City Parade Performance" at Zhang Fei Temple at 10 am and 3 pm. The actors are incredibly powerful, creating a truly immersive Three Kingdoms atmosphere. The inscriptions and statues are also worth appreciating. ▪️ No need to rush to the attractions! Stroll through the alleys of Shuangzhaizi Street and North Street. The cobblestone streets gleam from countless footsteps, and you might even encounter an elderly woman sewing shoe soles under the red lanterns – this is the true essence of the ancient city. 【Food Must-Try List】 ✅ Zhang Fei Beef: Don't buy the vacuum-packed kind! Find a street stall that cuts it fresh, and pair it with a dish of Baoning vinegar. It's spicy, refreshing, and incredibly flavorful, dry yet tender. ✅ Cultural Road Pig Trotters: Stewed until tender and falling off the bone, full of collagen. Be prepared to queue if you go late, but the price is very affordable. ✅ Sichuan Cold Noodles + Guokui (Flatbread): A long-established shop on Shuangzhaizi Street. Slippery cold noodles mixed with chili oil, paired with freshly baked guokui – a carb-filled treat! ✅ Steamed Buns with White Sugar: Sweet and soft, delicious both hot and cold, keeps well, and makes a great souvenir. 【Tips to Avoid Pitfalls】 1. Beware of "free souvenir photos" near the Imperial Examination Hall and Zhang Fei Temple. Printing starts at 35 yuan. Bring your own tripod for better photos. 2. Prices in the ancient city shops are inflated. Buy local specialties at supermarkets in the city center; you can save half the price on Zhang Fei beef and Baoning vinegar. 3. Wear flat, non-slip shoes! The cobblestone streets are slippery after rain; your feet won't suffer after a day of walking. 4. The ancient city is free to enter. History buffs can choose to buy individual tickets for the key attractions, avoiding the hassle of buying a combined ticket. Langzhong isn't a city for rushing through; it's perfect for slowing down. Spend the morning photographing the deserted ancient streets, enjoying a cup of covered-bowl tea at an old teahouse at noon, and strolling along the riverside in the evening, savoring the river breeze and local snacks. The blend of ancient charm and vibrant local life makes it truly hard to leave!

    Jianmen Pass is definitely worth a visit. Li Bai wrote of it as a place where "one man can hold the pass against ten thousand," and only by being there in person can you truly appreciate its grandeur. Moreover, it was late autumn, and the mountains and forests were ablaze with color, a truly beautiful sight.

  • Qingmuchuan Ancient Town

    What impressed me most about Qingmuchuan was its cultural history, its hospitality and thoughtfulness. When I stayed at the Qu Family Courtyard, I found that the ancient charm was interspersed with modern accommodations. The people in the town were enthusiastic but not snobbish, and they worked hard to live instead of just making money from tourists. My wife and children missed breakfast, and the little sister from the Qu Family Courtyard thoughtfully brought them food from the kitchen, which was very comforting. I will come again next time.

    The 70 yuan ticket I bought this time was very cost-effective. The transportation bus, cable car, and aerial elevator were all free. The canyon scenery was beautiful, the staff were enthusiastic, and the scenic area was well managed. It was worth visiting.
