    Because the "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" program included a special itinerary at Yanmen Pass, even during the winter holidays, it wasn't too crowded. It's a magnificent pass, definitely worth a visit. Climb the mountain and experience the feeling of iron horses and golden spears.

    The scenery is nice and the bus is very convenient, good reviews! But the consumption level in the scenic area is a bit high, especially in some farmhouse restaurants, where two people can eat more than 100 yuan, while other places in the mountains only cost dozens of yuan.

    Xinzhou Ancient City is truly wonderful, with various ancient buildings arranged in a harmonious and picturesque manner. Be sure to climb the city wall at the entrance, and take photos at the Xiurong Academy at the highest point for a panoramic view. The various snacks are all quite good; following the reviews is a safe bet. However, avoid the Golden Beef Soup at the entrance; personally, I felt the portion of meat was small, and at 30 yuan a serving, there wasn't much to eat. They advertise a free scallion pancake with the soup (but it's only four small pieces, not even enough for a child).

    The summit reaches an elevation of 2,721 meters, and this vast subalpine meadow covers approximately 6,000 mu (approximately 1,000 acres). In spring and summer, the grasslands are covered in verdant grass and dotted with wildflowers, while in autumn and winter, rime and ice can be seen hanging from the ground, or blanketed in snow. The ruins of the Northern Qi Great Wall also traverse this area, creating a fascinating juxtaposition of history and nature.

    Due to the current Yellow River sediment discharge period, there is no water at the big bend in the Laoniuwan Scenic Area, and the riverbed is exposed, which greatly reduces the scenery. Fortunately, Ctrip launched discounted tickets in time, which made people feel more psychologically balanced. This must be praised!
