If you want to know the modernity of China, you can go to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other cities, but if you want to know the history of China or the Chinese nation, then you must come to Shaanxi, because Shaanxi is the root of our Chinese nation! About history, we don't talk about the Terracotta Warriors, let alone the Great Wall. A Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor will allow Chinese from all over the world to punch in. Huangdi Mausoleum is the ancestor of the Chinese nation. Although there are many Huangdi Mausoleums in China, only the Huangdi Mausoleum in Shaanxi is recognized as the first mausoleum in the world.

Speaking of landscape, let's talk about Hukou Waterfall first. The Yellow River is the birthplace of Chinese culture and our mother river, and the most spectacular part of this river is Hukou Waterfall, which runs all the way from Yulin Shenmu in northern Shaanxi to Tongguan in southern Shaanxi. It can be said that it runs through the whole Shaanxi province! Today, the "1 highway" in China is built along the west bank of the Yellow River, with a total length of 828.5 kilometers. It is also called the highway along the Yellow River.

This road was built to develop economy and tourism. The whole highway directly connects the mineral resources and agricultural products in northern Shaanxi with developed cities such as xi 'an. For tourists, we can better drive along the Yellow River and enjoy the scenery of the Yellow River in The Journey to the West, and it also connects more than 50 scenic spots in the province in series, so that you can really understand Shaanxi and the origin and development history of the Chinese nation.

Along the Yellow Highway, it starts from Qiangtou Township, Fugu County, Yulin City in the north and reaches huayin city Huashan Lotus Pagoda in the south, with a total length of 828.5 kilometers. It is mainly divided into four sections: Yulin section, Yan 'an section, Hancheng section and Weinan section, with a total length of 4 15 kilometers, Yan 'an section of 24 1 km, Hancheng section of 74.4 kilometers and Weinan section of 65,440 kilometers.

Yulin section

Yulin along the Yellow Highway starts from Qiangtou Township, Fugu County in the north and passes through Fugu, Shenmu, Jiaxian, Wubao, Suide and Qingjian, with a total length of 4 15 km. This section of highway is basically built along the west bank of the Yellow River, and it is also the longest section of highway along the whole Yellow River. Because it is on the Loess Plateau, it is also the most difficult to build and the highest cost, about 2.5 billion yuan. This section of highway connects Shenfu, Yu Jia and Yin Qing expressways, and is connected with six national highways: G336, G338, G337, G339, G307 and G340.

Yan 'an section

Yan 'an section of the Yellow River Highway extends from Fanjiawa in Yanchuan County to Yichuan, and finally ends at Tongzuling in Yichuan County, with a total length of 24 1km, connecting two expressways, two national and provincial trunk highways and 13 county and township highways in the middle, and passing through Fusi Bay of the Yellow River. The scenery is particularly spectacular.

Hancheng section

Hancheng has a total length of 74.4 kilometers along the Yellow River Highway. 20 15 started in September, starting from Yichuan in Yan 'an in the north and reaching S20 1 Han Xiang Bridge to Han Yijie Expressway in the south, with a total length of 14. 154 km, 2 tunnels with a total length of 770 meters and 22 bridges with a total length of 2,727. Longmen Highway Phase I, 108 Zhubei to Zhichuan section, S20 1 Zhichuan to Hanhe Street section. S20 1 section from Heyangjie to Zhichuan, with a total length of 6.26km and a road width of10m.

Weinan section started construction on May 7, 2009, with a total length of10/km, passing through Hancheng, Heyang, Dali and Huayin. The main sections are Yichuan section to hancheng city Zhichuan section, hancheng city Zhichuan section to Dali Xinjian Village (hancheng city Zhichuan section to Heyang Dong Lei 16.2km, Heyang Donglei to Dali Xinjian Village 49km), Dali Xinjian Village to Dali Lehe Village 13.3km, Han Xiang Bridge to Zhubei section 12km, and Weihe Bridge to Huashan 9.

Day 5: Shequ Geopark-Yanchuan-Qingjian-Suide

On this day, I usually live in Suide. Although Suide is not a big place, there are still many scenic spots, such as Fu Shu's Tomb and Mengtian Tomb. If you know the history of the Qin Dynasty, you will be familiar with these two men. If you don't know, you can look at the myth shot by Hugh. Before that, I made a special trip to Suide to find their graves, but I couldn't find them. They are really relatively small scenic spots.

Next to Uncle Fu's tomb, there is the Suidehan Stone Relief Exhibition Hall. Entering the exhibition hall is like entering an ancient just visiting, which attracts a large number of cultural relics and archaeologists to visit it every year.

Food recommendation: Suide black powder, knife bowl tray, Suide oil swirl, black wait for a while.

Day 6: Suide-Guojiagou-Wubao-jia county

Guojiagou

Guojiagou is the place where Ordinary World was filmed, so many people go to northern Shaanxi for it. If you have read the book Ordinary World, then you will definitely yearn for this place. The whole village is the cultural style of northern Shaanxi, which is very characteristic of northern Shaanxi.

Address: Yao Culture Industrial Park, Guojiagou Road, Yanchuan County, Yan 'an

Day 7: jia county-Fugu

Baiyun Mountain

Baiyun Mountain is located on the bank of the Yellow River, 5 kilometers south of Jiaxian County in northern Shaanxi. Because there is Baiyun Temple on the mountain, it is called Baiyun Mountain, and there is the wonders of the Yellow River Canyon at the foot of the mountain. Baiyun Mountain is a famous Taoist shrine in China, which was founded in the Song Dynasty. At present, a variety of cultural products such as architecture, murals, calligraphy, sculpture, music and so on have been preserved.

Fugu ancient city

Fugu ancient city is located on the stone mountain ridge in the northeast of Fugu county, close to the mountains and waters. As early as more than 7000 years ago, people lived here, which is a veritable cultural city.

Day 8: Fugu-Great Wall-Shenmu-Yulin

Erlangshan

Erlang Mountain is a scenic spot of Shenmu, which belongs to mountaineering, but the mountain is really not very high and the scenic spot is very long. You can always walk along the river and stand on the mountain overlooking the whole Shenmu city. Tourism in scenic spots consumes a lot of energy. I suggest you bring your own dry food and go to play. Last time I went there, I found that the scenic spot was expanded. It takes about 2-4 hours to walk back and forth, which is very suitable for taking pictures. Some sections inside are still dangerous.

Admission: free.

Address: No.204 Provincial Road, Shenmu, Yulin

red rock canyon

Hongshixia is a good place to take pictures. There is a lot of stone carving art in it, which is actually a Buddhist holy land. Most of the Buddha statues and caves are located on a cliff, and a plank road has been artificially dug on the cliff. Visitors can visit the caves on the rock wall through the plank road.

Admission: 30 yuan.

Address: Beiyuemiao Village, Yuyang Town, Yuyang District, Yulin City

Tip: There is another town in Yulin City, Beitai and an ancient street, but I personally think it is not worth going. Zhenbeitai is relatively small, and scenic spots are charged. There is basically no one inside, 30-60 minutes is enough. The old street is next to the second street. There are no tourists, they are all locals, and sometimes there are students, so business is average.

Day 9: Yulin-Shenmu-Hengshan

Hongjiannao

This is a provincial-level tourist scenic spot in Shaanxi, located in the hinterland of Dongsheng coalfield in the northwest of Shenmu City. The scenic spot is triangular, with a width of 10km from east to west and a length of 12km from north to south, with a water area of 67 square kilometers.

Later, Emperor Tuoba Tao of the Northern Wei Dynasty unified the north and conquered Tongwan City, which was designated as Tongwan Town.

Day 12: Yan 'an-Nanniwan-Huangling (Huangdi Mausoleum)-Yijun

Nanniwan once had a prosperous economy, but later it became relatively barren due to historical reasons. Later, the 359th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army launched a large-scale production movement here. Nanniwan spirit is an important part of Yan 'an spirit, with the spirit of self-reliance and hard struggle.

Admission: free.

Address: Tantao Village, yijun county, Tongchuan, Shaanxi

In the process of self-driving, most of the roads in Weinan are plain areas with good road conditions. When passing through Dali, they will pass through many villages and towns, and there is a winter jujube market. When driving, everyone must slow down and pay attention to pedestrians crossing the road. In the Qiachuan section of Heyang, the road will be narrow, and both sides are near the water. The price should be extra careful and try not to stop on the road.

When passing through Hancheng section, many roads here are shared by national roads and urban roads, and there are many pedestrians and vehicles. It is difficult to find the entrance along the Yellow Road at Yumenkou. The section from Hancheng to Yichuan is the Shanxi-Shaanxi Gorge in Zhujing. The scenery is good, and the roads are mostly near the water and cliffs. Be careful.

After the Hukou Waterfall of the Yellow River, the road to Qingjian basically left the Yellow River. This road is basically a plateau gully region, with many mountains and deep valleys, many bends and steep slopes. You must control the speed when driving. If you are traveling together, it is recommended to take this road.

From Qingjian North to Fugu Qiangtou Township, we basically go back to the Yellow River and follow it. The road is tortuous and there are many cliff sections. Pay attention to the falling rocks on both sides of the road, try not to stay and pass quickly. If it is rainy, be sure to pay attention to whether the road is dangerous and then pass. If you go to the north section, it is recommended not to drive at night, which will be particularly dangerous.

Due to limited conditions, there are sometimes few accommodation options along the northern section of the Yellow Highway. If you drive in summer, you can consider setting up a tent. In some sections, because of the number of mountains and tunnels, mobile phones will temporarily lose signal. And most of them are 3G signals, and all major cities can connect to 4G.
