    First of all, the car can be driven up, and there is parking in each temple, which is great. Then the environment is also good, refreshing. How high you can climb depends on your physical fitness. Overall, it feels good.

    A wonderful experience! Seeing the iron flower fireworks for the first time, a traditional intangible cultural heritage, was a truly amazing sight in Huludao. The performances were excellent, both the singing and acting were superb, and the beautiful fireworks made for a perfect ending to the trip. I hope to bring my parents back to Huludao and the ancient town again sometime in the future.

    Yinsha Bay is located in Kulun Banner, Inner Mongolia, about 2 hours' drive from Tongliao City. It is known as the No. 1 Desert in Northeast China. There are many recreational projects in the desert, such as camel riding for 100 yuan, Bigfoot for 150 yuan, desert off-road vehicles, archery, sand sliding, etc. The desert is very large and crowded.

    Qianshan combines 3.8 billion years of strange rocks and mountains with a thousand years of Buddhist and Taoist culture. Nearly a thousand lotus-shaped peaks stand tall, ancient temples are hidden among the green cypresses, and landscapes such as the flat stone and the one-character sky are both challenging and fun. The sunrise and starry sky are also very beautiful.

    The price was reasonable, and the middle row was great for viewing. The show was engaging and hilarious, and the finale, featuring interactive performances and acrobatics, was truly breathtaking. The Nanfeng restrooms were shabby and poorly maintained, and for such a large audience, improvements are needed.

    I was the only visitor this time, and the guide was incredibly attentive! She explained everything very thoroughly, highlighting key artifacts and emphasizing their importance. The two-hour tour lasted a full two hours, and she even answered all my questions. The Shenyang Museum has many worthwhile artifacts to see, and this tour was truly well worth listening to!

    This is a fairly large park. It has a lake where you can go boating, willow banks, trees, and lawns. If you have time, you can stroll around and explore. Beiling Park also houses the Zhaoling Mausoleum of the Qing Dynasty, but this requires an additional fee.

    午后时光~午后时光~

    5 out of 10! The Liaoning Provincial Museum is Shenyang's hidden cultural treasure; a whole day isn't enough! As the first museum in New China, the Liaoning Provincial Museum truly embodies the spirit of "understated yet rich in content"! Free admission and directly accessible by Metro Line 2 (Exit D, just a 150-meter walk), it's incredibly convenient, requiring no navigation. The architecture is magnificent and grand, with a clear exhibition layout. The 22 exhibition halls cover 17 categories of collections, including prehistoric culture, Liao Dynasty artifacts, and calligraphy and painting masterpieces, with over 115,000 artifacts to explore—a paradise for history buffs! The must-see exhibits are truly breathtaking! The white jade pig-dragon from the Hongshan Culture is exquisite; its rounded shape is both ancient and mysterious, a marvel of 5,000-year-old carving techniques. Zhang Xu's "Four Poems in Ancient Style" features unrestrained cursive script; even the ink smudges are clearly visible under magnification, exuding the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty. There's also the Murong Xianbei's gold hairpin shaped like a flowering tree and the Yongzheng kiln-fired red-glazed pomegranate-shaped vase—both aesthetically pleasing and historically significant. For a deeper understanding, I recommend renting a VR audio guide for 50 yuan. It not only provides detailed explanations but also comes with a postcard, making it far more rewarding than wandering around aimlessly. Don't miss the volunteer guides either, as they are packed with information! The exhibition hall is vast, so comfortable shoes are recommended. Allow at least 3-4 hours for a leisurely visit. There's a restaurant on the first floor for a light meal, and the "Hairpin Flower" series of souvenirs in the cultural and creative area are very attractive—perfect for gifts or personal enjoyment. The only minor drawback is that some of the museum's most prized artifacts (such as the "Auspicious Cranes" painting) may be temporarily closed for conservation purposes; check the official website for announcements before you go. Whether you're introducing history to your children or experiencing cultural heritage with friends, the Liaoning Provincial Museum is worth visiting multiple times! Every artifact here tells a story spanning thousands of years. After a visit, you'll be deeply moved by the profoundness of Chinese culture. Don't miss it when you're in Shenyang!
