What is the tourism image of Yangquan City? Please explain

Yangquan is rich in tourism resources, with beautiful and pleasant natural scenery and famous historical sites and scenic spots. There are still extant ruins of the ancient city built by Zhao Jianzi in the late Spring and Autumn Period, ruins of the garrison of Huaiyin Marquis Han Xin of the Han Dynasty, and ruins of Princess Pingyang of the Tang Dynasty who led the army to garrison at Niangziguan. In Dongfu Mountain in the southern part of Pingding, it is said that Nuwa built a stove here to make stones to mend the sky, making the entire Dongfu Mountain stone brown-red. After being thrown into the water, it floated without sinking. The stove still exists today, and there is also a poem by Lu Shen in the Ming Dynasty. The inscription "Fushan Yizao Ji". Cangshan Mountain, 60 kilometers north of the city, is said to have hid the orphans of the Zhao family of the Jin Dynasty here during the Spring and Autumn Period. There is also the legend of the Canggu Cave, from which the name of Cangshan Mountain is derived. In addition, Yangquan also preserves many ancient cultural sites such as the grottoes of the Northern Wei Dynasty, cliff carvings of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the main hall of Linli Guandi Temple rebuilt in the Song Dynasty with the legacy of the Tang Dynasty, and ancient architectural groups since the Jin and Yuan Dynasties. There are also sites where the armed uprising led by the Communist Party of China was put down in 1931, and the Shinao Mountain site, the main battlefield of the world-famous "One Hundred Regiments War" in 1940. In addition, there are many ancient temples, stone monuments, ancient pagodas and other cultural relics. The Liangjiazhai Hot Spring, Yaolin Temple and Niangziguan Waterfall with medical value, as well as the rare large-scale stalactite cave wonders in the north - Lotus Cave, Wuhua Cave, etc., make people forget to leave. Yangquan is also the connecting point between tourist areas in Shanxi and Hebei provinces.

Yangquan has a long history of culture. In ancient times, there was a saying that "the three Jin cultures are numbered in two Dings" (Pingding and Dingxiang). In history, it was known as "a country famous for its literature". Yangquan has always valued education and culture. According to documentary records, Guanshan Jingshe was built as early as the late Northern Song Dynasty. In the Yuan Dynasty, only Lu Gongguanshan Academy became famous in Shanxi and North China. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, Mingxian Academy, Gaocen Academy, Huaiyin Academy and Chongshang Academy were established successively. Qiao Yu in the Ming Dynasty, Dou Yao and Zhang Mu in the Qing Dynasty, and Shi Pingmei in modern history are all outstanding representatives of Yangquan culture.
