Weinan, as a county name, started in the second year of Ganlu of Fu Jian of the Former Qin Dynasty (360 AD), named after the county seat is located south of the Wei River. The Chinese nation, also known as "Huaxia", originated from Weinan: "Hua" refers to Mount Hua, and "Xia" refers to "Xiayang", specifically referring to the narrow region stretching across this area. The civilization that emerged from here is the "Huaxia Civilization", so Weinan is also known as the "Root of Huaxia". "Zhonghua" and "Huaxia"'s "Hua" both come from Mount Hua. The master of Chinese studies, Zhang Taiyan, said in his article "The Explanation of the Republic of China in the First Compilation of Taiyan's Writings": "The land of Yongzhou ends at Huayin in the southeast. The land of Liangzhou ends at Huayang in the northeast. It is based on Mount Hua to determine the limit, and the name of its territory is Hua, which is the origin. The places where people later went to are all over the nine provinces... The name of Hua began to be wide at this time. Hua is the name of the country, not the name of the race, but now it has become a common language". Archaeology has confirmed that the Miaodigou culture of the Yangshao period is the "earliest China in the cultural sense". The Miaodigou culture, with Mount Hua as the center, expanded to the surrounding areas, constructing the integration and unification of China five thousand years ago. Famous figures Three Saints and Three Sages: The three saints refer to the word saint Cangjie, the wine saint Du Kang, and the history saint Sima Qian; the three sages refer to the famous Song Dynasty prime minister Kou Zhun, the Tang Dynasty general Zhang Renyuan, and the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi.

I was attracted by all kinds of highly saturated beautiful pictures on the Internet, and thought that there was such a beautiful place near Xi'an. If I didn’t go to see it now, when would I go? So I came this weekend. After I went there, I felt a little disappointed overall. I came here for the ice and snow, but the entire ice and snow area basically showed signs of human intervention. The spectacular icefall was created by spraying water on ropes, the Tiffany blue bubble ice surface was created by dyeing, and the large area of ​​ice on the iceboat was made by using nets to solidify the ice. There is basically nothing natural here, it all depends on technology and hard work. In addition, the weather has been hot recently, and a lot of ice has melted, so we can't climb onto the ice on the lake. The spectacular and interesting scene is much less. Although the photos taken on site are not bad, they are still far behind the photos on the Internet (Figures 11 and 12 are the original photos, you can compare them with 1 and 2). The higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment. If you come here to see the natural scenery, it is not recommended. At least the temperature is relatively high at this stage, and you will be disappointed if you come here.

🏔️ Shaohuashan is located in Liujihe Village, Shaohua Township, Shaanxi Province, about 5 km southeast of the county seat. It is connected to Xiaofuyu in the east and Baishiyu in the west. The main peak is 1,664.4 m above sea level. It is called "Hua" because it is connected to the peaks of Mount Hua and is opposite to it, but it is lower than Mount Hua, so it is called Shaohuashan, also known as Xiaohuashan. Shaohuashan is not only a famous Taoist mountain in China, but also the sister mountain of Mount Hua, and is known as "Erhua" together with Mount Hua. Many poets and writers have written poems and articles about Shaohuashan. Wang Botang, a hero of the Sui Dynasty, gathered here, and many stories of Shi Jin, the nine-patterned dragon in the famous novel "Water Margin", took place in Shaohuashan. The site of the mountain gate and stone village can still be seen today.🏯 📍Address: Shaohuashan National Forest Park 💰Tickets CNY 60 per adult, CNY 30 for a round-trip sightseeing bus, CNY 100 for a round-trip cable car 🕒Opening hours: 8:30–18:00 · 🌟Highlights Hiking, ice waterfall viewing, wild snow skiing, blue ice lake and river, ice pillars, rime · ✅ Panlong Road The dragon-shaped plank road is like a dragon 🏔️ winding along the mountain ridge, like a dragon wrapping around the mountain and lurking in the mountains · ✅ Glass Plank Road The most beautiful and artistic glass plank road 🫙 is located above the Panlong · ✅ Shimen Gorge Waterfalls hang high 💦 and torrents rush at the confluence of peaks.

Shaohua Mountain in autumn is like a palette of colors. The maple leaves are as red as fire, the ginkgo leaves are dazzling yellow, and the pines and cypresses are still green. The colors are intertwined and look beautiful. Walking in the mountains, the golden fallen leaves under your feet make a "creaking" sound, which is very pleasant. 🍁 Take a sightseeing bus from the visitor center to the lower station of the cableway, and take the cableway up the mountain to save a lot of energy. There are several viewing platforms on the mountain, where you can enjoy the autumn scenery of the whole mountain and see the sea of clouds ☁️. The glass plank road is very photogenic. Now is the best time to enjoy the red leaves. It's so beautiful! 🍁 PS: It is windy on the mountain, so remember to bring an extra piece of clothing. There are snacks in the scenic area, which are a little expensive. It is also necessary to bring some snacks and water. The queue time for the cableway is too long, at least 2 hours for a one-way trip. You must patiently reserve enough time for the cableway to go back and forth for 5 hours. I'm not exaggerating.
