Red Flag Canal, the "Eighth Wonder of the World"

📍Attraction address: Red Flag Canal Scenic Area, Lin County, Linzhou, Henan Province. AAAAA-rated scenic area, also known as the "Eighth Wonder of the World." A "man-made river in the sky" suspended in the middle of the Taihang Mountains, it was built in the 1960s by the people of Lin County under extremely difficult conditions, who spent ten years carving out this life-giving canal with their bare hands. It is not only a great water conservancy project, but also an immortal spiritual monument. A visit to the Red Flag Canal not only allows you to appreciate the magnificent scenery of the Taihang Mountains, but also to experience the spirit of the Red Flag Canal: "self-reliance, hard work, unity and cooperation, and selfless dedication." 🚗Getting there: The attraction is located in a non-urban area, so driving is more convenient. 🚗 👍️Must-see attractions: ✅ Youth Cave: One of the most famous attractions, this is the throat of the Red Flag Canal and the most dangerous section. You can walk or take a sightseeing bus to experience the hardships and wisdom of the builders of the past. ✅ Yixiantian: A staircase carved out of a mountain crevice, only wide enough for one person to pass through. ✅ Luosi Pool Scenic Area: With its clear mountains and waters and pleasant scenery, this is a great place for leisure and sightseeing. 🎟️Tickets: 💰Admission tickets are CNY 80 for adults, free for children under 1.2 meters, and free for seniors over 60 years old. In-park activities: Cloud Ladder, CNY 35/person; Reversible Cable Car: CNY 70/person, which can take you to the top of the mountain to take a photo of the three provinces (Hebei, Henan, and Shanxi) in one shot. The cable car includes a free shuttle bus to the Youth Cave Scenic Area. 💗Other tips: If you are traveling from a long distance, you will need to make additional accommodation plans. You can choose to stay in Linzhou. Have a great trip and enjoy your time! ❤
