    "If you are not driving by yourself, it is recommended to report a group. There are meeting points at multiple points in Luoyang City. If you count the ticket cable car traffic, in fact, the group is more cost-effective. Some scenic spots are worth a visit. The first cable car is a must. This money can't save the second journey. You can't sit on the second journey. Good physical strength. I have walked around and saw more scenery. The trekking poles are bought on the mountain. When the tour guide goes to the entrance of the scenic spot to change tickets, there will be people selling various items on the car. The trekking pole is 30 yuan. The first cable car is 5 yuan. After the first cable car is down, there may be a difference in 5 yuan. But there is really no need to do wrong. The money for buying a set of hiking items in the big head car is not as good as taking the cable car escalator throughout the whole journey. The price of things in the scenic area is definitely more expensive than the outside, but it is acceptable (5 yuan of mineral water, 12 instant noodles, 20 pieces of noodles at this level) I took the first cable car up and down. Everything else was about 5 hours after walking to the top of the mountain. The scenic spot is worth a visit without excessive force."

    "We drove from Yangquan to play, the distance is relatively far, and the local navigation is off the high speed, and we need to continue to drive 60 or 70 kilometers of mountain roads. The road is relatively steep. There is a section of the Panshan Highway, and there is also a possibility of traffic jams. We are blocked on the way back. On the mountainside. Because there is a large car pulling stones in the middle, there are many, and it is also special. The dust is all over. It really doesn't look like a tourist attraction. It feels bad. After this few kilometers of industrial area, gradually enter the mountainous area, don't think you are almost to the destination, in fact, there is still a long way, the road conditions are more dangerous, driving must be cautious. Of course, the scenery in the mountain is still good, and there is a large reservoir on the way that is particularly spectacular. There are many small rafting on the way, we did not play, our goal is the first rafting in North China, continue to hurry, pass a large water world, but not too tight, not too many people, do not know whether it is fun, we only stop a little, continue to hurry. Continued to drive a few kilometers, we came to the pier (that is, the end of the rafting) everyone can save the car here, 10 yuan per car, and then need to take the local car source, 10 yuan per person. We drove to the source, parking is also 10 yuan, but after drifting, we still need to take the wet car up the mountain, find our own car to change clothes (take the shuttle bus back without spending money). Note that driving must see the archway of ~ North China's first drifting ~, which is the destination (pictured below). Next, let's talk about the strategy of playing. First of all, it is best to buy tickets online (guaranteed to be in place), cheap. It is best to bring sun protection when you come; small plastic basin (water attack weapon), water is not practical, children can bring; waterproof bag, mobile phone, car keys, etc.; Water clothes and swimming cap (the head must be all wet, anti-cold), you don't think about playing, the whole body can have a dry place. The rafting gate is 12:30 to 3:4 pm. It is best to go early, because there are many people who are interesting and attack each other. There are few people playing after 3 or 4 o'clock. It is boring. The weather in the canyon is also cold! The rafting is very happy, the road is quite long, about two hours, if you stop a little in the middle, about three hours, there are a lot of steep slopes, more exciting, if you are not in a hurry, it is best to meet with the rafting force, and you can fight water wars in the middle. The only drawback is that there is no photo in the middle of the scenic spot, the river is not too clean, not the kind of crystal clear. The overall feeling is OK, the only shortcoming is far away! ! ! Finally, I wish everyone safety and fun! ! !"

    "During the National Day, in order to avoid the peak of the flow of people, I specially chose Ningxia in northern Shaanxi to travel. It turns out that I am right, there are few people, and the scenery is beautiful. This attraction was not going to go. Looking at the evaluation, many people said that it was boring. After I went there, I found out that it was really a miracle on earth. Also called Yucha Grand Canyon, the scenery is particularly beautiful, walking is not tired, the 70-year-old people have a good time"

    "It’s not worse than Wuyue. Such a beautiful scenery. If there is a light at night, the whole Laojun Mountain is the same light belt. It’s not a beauty to climb at night. The whole journey should be very suitable for autumn. It’s a bit of a crime in summer. Thanks to the scenery, the car can avoid the process of walking."
