As we explored, we found that the Hall of the Holy Mother, with its beautifully preserved wooden 🪵 structures and intricate carvings, was the perfect spot for photos 📸 The ancient cypress trees and stone bridges also create a peaceful and timeless atmosphere. We recommend visiting in the morning ☀️ for soft lighting and fewer crowds ✨ 📍Jinci Scenic Area, Jinci Town, Taiyuan, Shanxi, China We also explored the Twin Pagoda Temple, known for its two towering pagodas that dominate the skyline. The best photo 📸 angle is from the courtyard, where you can capture both pagodas standing symmetrically against the sky ⛅️ If you visit during sunset, the golden light creates a breathtaking contrast with the dark brickwork of the pagodas. 📍50 Shuangta East Street, Yingze District, Taiyuan, Shanxi, China For a more modern side of Taiyuan, we visited the Fenhe River Scenic Area.

Do you think Taiyuan only has coal? Actually, Taiyuan also has a romantic pink flower sea. At this time of year, the pink muhly grass in Taiyuan Fenhe Park has already formed a pink flower sea. This dreamy pink muhly grass is like stars in the sky, soft as mist, and is also known as hairawn muhly. Standing in the flower sea, you can take beautiful photos with just a snap. From a distance, it looks like you have entered a purple mist, as if you are in a fairy tale world from a Hayao Miyazaki animation. As the sun sets and the evening breeze blows gently, strolling in the pink flower sea is really pleasant! There are also large fields of sunflowers here, with vibrant yellow flowers that are also great for photos! If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city, come to Fenhe Park and take a look! Location: From Songzhuang Bridge in the north to Longcheng Street in Xiaodian District in the south, Yingze District, Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province.
