Where is the fun of traveling to Shanxi on National Day?

Datong Yungang Grottoes

Yungang Grottoes in Datong City, Shanxi Province, located in the northern cliff of Wuzhou Mountain in the western suburbs of Datong City, Shanxi Province. Grottoes are dug along the mountain, stretching from east to west 1000 meters. There are 45 large caves, 252 large and small shrines and more than 565,438+0,000 stone statues. It is one of the largest ancient grottoes in China. According to documents, in the peaceful period of the Northern Wei Dynasty (460-465 AD), the famous monk Yao Tan presided over the excavation of five grottoes in Wuzhousai (Pingcheng, now Datong) in the western suburbs of Beijing. The existing cave 16-20 in Yungang is the earliest so-called "Tanyao Cave 5". Most of the other caves were completed before Emperor Xiaowen moved to Luoyang in the 18th year of Taihe in the Northern Wei Dynasty (AD 494). Judging from the historical inscriptions and artistic styles preserved in the grottoes, this magnificent art project is basically a relic of the Northern Wei Dynasty, with a history of 1500 years.

Shanxi Pingyao ancient city

Pingyao Ancient City, Jinzhong City, Shanxi Province is a famous cultural city with a history of more than 2,700 years. Together with Langzhong, Lijiang and Shexian in Yunnan, it is also called "the four best-preserved ancient cities" and the second batch of national historical and cultural cities. It is also the only ancient county in China that successfully declared the world cultural heritage with the whole ancient city. Pingyao was once called "ancient pottery". In the early Ming Dynasty, the city wall was built to resist foreign invasion. In the third year of Hongwu (A.D. 1370), the old wall was rebuilt and expanded, and the brick was completely covered. Since then, Jingdezhen, Zhengde, Jiajing, Qin Long, Wanli and other dynasties have carried out ten repairs, updated the towers and added watchtowers. In the 43rd year of Kangxi (A.D. 1703), the emperor visited Pingyao in the Western Ocean and built four towers to make the city more spectacular. The total circumference of Pingyao city wall is 6 163 meters, and the height of the wall is about 12 meters, which divides Pingyao county with an area of about 2.25 square kilometers into two different worlds. The streets, sidewalks and urban buildings within the city walls retain the shapes of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Outside the city wall, it is called the new city. This is a wonderful place, where ancient and modern buildings blend together and reflect each other, which is amazing.

Although it has spanned two centuries, it has maintained its natural architectural style. The Qiao Family Courtyard covers an area of 8,724.8 square meters and consists of 6 courtyards, 19 courtyards and 3 13 houses. Seen from a height, the overall layout is castle-style architecture, with double happiness.

Hanging temple/monastery

This is one of the 18 scenic spots of Mount Hengshan in Beiyue, one of the five famous mountains in China, and it is known as the first scenic spot of Mount Hengshan. Among the many temples in China, this hanging temple is a wonderful building. Generally, temples are built on flat ground, but this hanging temple is worthy of the name. It was built on a cliff and hung in the air. Its design idea is really unique, and the architectural art is really high. The mountains here are steep, and the cliffs on both sides 100 meters stand upright, like axes and knives. Hanging Temple was built on this cliff, or attached to it like a cliff. It really has the potential to take off. Amazing, unique, unique. Far away, I saw the fairy palace built by God, hanging dangerously in the air. "Dan Langzhu Lake Flying on the Cliff" seems to be an exquisite sculpture embedded in the cliff of Wan Ren. Tourists board ships, drill skylights, cross grottoes, cross plank roads and walk long corridors, such as entering fairyland. These buildings are concentrated in a huge sunken cliff niche. Every time it rains cats and dogs, the rain will fly down from the protruding rock head at the top of the temple and pour to the bottom of the valley, making the rows of crystal clear water curtains hanging on the fairy pavilion in Qionglou a spectacle. Give people an unexpected feeling.

Shanxi Provincial Museum

Located in Shangguan Lane, southeast of Taiyuan City, it was originally a Confucian Temple, then a Shanxi Provincial Book Museum, and 1953 was changed to a Shanxi Provincial Museum. Built in the Dading period, it was rebuilt and expanded in the Ming and Qing dynasties. In the seventh year of Guangxu (188 1), Xiyuan Temple moved here.
