What are the free tourist attractions worth visiting in Shanxi?

For friends who usually like poor travel, some free scenic spots are definitely more attractive than those that charge. Free swimming, punching in the excellent scenery, kill two birds with one stone. So what are the free tourist attractions worth visiting in Shanxi?

I. Pingyao Ancient City

Pingyao Ancient City is located in Pingyao County, Jinzhong City, Shanxi Province, with a history of more than 2,000 years. Its architectural features are mainly county buildings in Ming and Qing Dynasties, and it is one of the must-see spots for tourists to visit Shanxi.

Like most ancient towns, there are naturally all kinds of eating, drinking and having fun inside the ancient city. You can see the ancient city wall, ancient fairy cliff, Rishengchang, Tongxing Escort Agency, Confucian Temple and other ancient buildings, and you can feel the reappearance of history in front of you.

At the same time, there are various national cultural activities in Yingxun Square. Many young ladies will rent one or two Qing Dynasty costumes to punch in and take photos in the square, and they can also participate in blind box activities in scientific research. The most attractive thing is to see Pingyao Theater again. This is really worth seeing! Completely immersive performance, the scene will change with the performance of the characters, super atmosphere!

In addition, there are two famous temples outside the ancient city, namely Shuanglin Temple and Zhenguo Temple. Together with the ancient city, these two temples are listed in the World Cultural Heritage List. The overall style is very distinctive in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, and it is still worth seeing.

Second, Yunzhong River Scenic Area

Yunzhong River Scenic Area is located in the middle reaches of Yunzhong River in the north of Xinzhou City, Shanxi Province. It is a 4A-level tourist attraction in China. Many people call it "Shili Gallery" with beautiful scenery.

The whole scenic spot gives people a feeling of pastoral scenery, which is composed of green trees, lakes, grasslands, safflower and strange stones. It's pure natural oxygen. In addition, it has also artificially built many unique scenic spots, such as the ten-mile scroll, the scenery on the dam, the night in the clouds, the winding steps of the lotus pond, the double pavilion and the sunset. It's very attractive and comfortable to walk or take pictures. In addition, there are various entertainment facilities, which are also a good choice for taking children to play.

Personally, what attracts me more about these scenic spots is the double pavilion for watching the sunset. To put it simply, two pavilions have been built in Xiayan Lake, and the Jade Belt Bridge winds around the pavilions. This position can be said to be an excellent throne for viewing. In the morning, you can enjoy the sunrise, and in the evening, you can enjoy the glow in the lake and see the water and the sky in a unique style.

3. Qikou Scenic Area

Qikou Scenic Area is also a national 4a-level scenic spot. Its name mainly comes from Datong Qiong, the second largest in the Yellow River, and it is also a famous commercial town in northern China, hence the name Qiongkou.

The whole scenic spot is actually an ancient town with many well-preserved escort agencies, pawn shops and houses in Ming and Qing Dynasties. I think friends who like to punch in ancient buildings must not miss it. Here, you can shoot a cultural blockbuster.

In addition, the Black Dragon Temple can see a panoramic view of the whole ancient town. If you have enough time, I suggest you punch in. Different from the beautiful scenery and flowing bridges in the past, the whole Qikou reveals the simple historical atmosphere of the ancient town.

Fourth, Xiaohe Wetland Park.

Xiaohe Wetland Park is located in Times Avenue, xiaoyi city, Lvliang. The wetland in the whole park accounts for two-thirds of the total area. More than 60% of the park is dominated by lakes, ponds and swamps, mixed with many fish scale ponds, forming a very unique landscape.

Because the whole park is really big, you can't go shopping all day by yourself. I suggest you scan the code and enjoy the scenery along the way by bike. There is also a cruise pier in the scenic area, where you can enjoy the scenery in the lake by boat and watch the vast lake experience the breeze blowing across your face, as if the fatigue of a day can be eliminated.

Many antique buildings have been artificially built in the park. It is also a good choice to have a rest in it when you are tired of playing, or to bring your own picnic cloth and some fruits to find a lawn to have a picnic with friends.
