This canyon is so beautiful! A must-see! An Underrated Gem in Shanxi✨The Ultimate Guide to Huangya Cave Hey everyone, today I'm sharing an awe-inspiring yet low-key treasure spot in Shanxi — Huangya Cave! Where the breathtaking scenery of the Taihang Mountains perfectly blends with profound red history, offering an unforgettable experience💯 📍Location: Huangya Cave Town, Licheng County, Changzhi City, Shanxi Province 🎫Ticket: 120 RMB (includes sightseeing bus). Free for students, seniors over 65, military personnel, and local residents (with ID on non-holidays). 🕙Opening Hours: 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM. Arrive before 9 AM to avoid crowds. 🚗Transportation Guide: Self-drive: From Taiyuan, take the Erguang Expressway to Tianli Expressway, exit at Xijing, then follow G207 National Highway. The trip takes about 3.5 hours with tolls around 120 RMB. Public Transport: Take a bus from Taiyuan Bus Station to Licheng (departs at 6:30 AM, 60 RMB), then transfer to a rural bus to the scenic area (every 30 minutes, 6 RMB). 🌟Must-Visit Spots: Wenggelang Grand Canyon (One-Line Sky): This 1.5 km S-shaped canyon features 200-meter-high cliffs, offering only a sliver of sky when you look up. It was the main battlefield of the Huangya Cave Defense, where 17-year-old bugler Cui Zhenfang held off hundreds of enemies for 27 days and 7 nights. Hiking here and touching the bullet-scarred cliffs will immerse you in the fearless spirit of the past. Huangya Cave Arsenal Ruins: The largest arsenal in North China during the Anti-Japanese War, with preserved relics like lathes and shell molds, vividly showcasing the Eighth Route Army's "no guns, no cannons, we make them ourselves" era. Note: The cave is temporarily closed for safety, but the external square and memorial hall are open. Lianhua Temple & Wufu Viewing Platform: Take a 120-meter cliffside elevator to 1,600 meters above sea level for a panoramic view of the "Taihang Red Cliffs." In spring, wildflowers bloom and sea of clouds roll, making it a 100% photogenic spot! Cui Zhenfang Park: Built to honor the hero of the Huangya Cave Defense, the monument records the glorious 6:1 enemy-to-our casualty ratio, inspiring deep respect.
