Langzhong Ancient Town

⛰【Attraction Guide】 📍Detailed address: The ancient city of Langzhong is really nice, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, surrounded by the Jialing River on three sides. Inside the ancient city, there are attractions such as Zhang Fei's Tomb and the Gongyuan. 🚗Transportation strategy: Take the high-speed train to Langzhong, and it's a half-hour taxi ride to the ancient city. During holidays, the traffic is very congested, buses are inconvenient, taxis are not very convenient, and most taxis you try to hail won't stop, and it's hard to get a ride on ride-hailing apps. 🕙Opening hours: Open all day 💰Ticket price: Not detailed, I have a concession certificate, so I don't have to pay for tickets. 🌟Highlights: Zhang Fei beef and white sugar steamed buns are delicious, but I wouldn't recommend the mushy beef noodles. 📌Small Tips: It's very suitable for a vacation, there are many tourists. If you can avoid the holidays, a five-star hotel only costs three to four hundred yuan, which is a great deal.

Ascending the Huaguang Tower and the Zhongtian Tower, and looking far into the distance, the green tiles and grey walls convey a strong sense of history, while the blue sky, white clouds, green trees, and red lanterns complement each other, bringing immense joy! The mountains, water, and city blend together harmoniously, and heaven, earth, and people coexist in harmony, perfectly presenting the supreme realm of 'unity of man and nature'.
