Linzhou Taihang Grand Canyon
I have to write a good post this time.
First of all, Taihang Grand Canyon and Taihang Mountain Grand Canyon are two places. Taihang Grand Canyon is actually composed of two scenic spots, Taohua Island and Wangxiangyan. Generally, if it is not mentioned, the one-day tour refers to Taohua Island.
This scenic area is not tiring as a whole. Currently the tickets are free, but because the flowers are not in full bloom, you must purchase a small bus for 60 yuan within the scenic area. The scenic area is composed of winding mountain roads, and you must take the small bus to each stop.
The total transportation time was about an hour. When I went down the mountain, I sat in the last row going in the opposite direction, which made me carsick.
It is recommended that people who are prone to motion sickness do not sit in the opposite direction.
South Taihang has always been beautiful, there is no need to avoid lightning, it is different from East Taihang which only has mountains, because South Taihang has always had clear water, very spiritual, the Peach Blossom Valley is divided into several stations.
To put it simply, each paid item is a stop. You will first go to Taohua Island. This is the first time you take transportation and it is also the core of the scenic area, with mountains, water and canyons.
The whole climbing process is relatively gentle and friendly, and even though the peach blossoms have just bloomed, they are still beautiful.
There is a reason why the 5A scenic spot is a 5A scenic spot. It takes about an hour to walk through Taohua Valley after getting off the bus, and about an hour and a half to take photos. We gather together at the meal time, and the food here is generally not expensive.
A tourist bought some Sichuan peppercorns for 13 yuan a pound, which looked pretty good.
After that, you have to walk along Taihang Sky Road. The glass skywalk is 280 meters long and costs 50 yuan for a round trip, while the zipline costs 85 yuan.
The U-shaped viewing road costs 30 yuan, and these are all stops for small transportation.
There is no road to walk in the middle, so you can only take a car, which makes it less tiring overall.
As long as your legs and feet are fine, it's fine to bring the elderly and children. Some people may complain about the fees charged by these places, but the prices are clearly marked, so you don't have to go.
For example, if you don’t want to walk on the glass skywalk, there is a free, smaller one just a little bit along the road to the viewing path. You can choose not to go, but it’s nice to take some photos there.
Personally, I think the small transportation is very worthwhile, but other items are a little more expensive.
During the peak season, there will be a lot of people if you go there.
You can take a look at the posts from previous years. It’s almost like people are stuck together, and many roads can only accommodate one or two people. If one person delays, others may not be able to pass. It is recommended to go in the off-season.
Although there may not be as many flowers blooming, you can see a complete flower instead of just human heads.
When traveling with a tour group, I started from the urban area of Liaocheng. To pick up people in the county, I first went to Yanggu and then to Shen County. Including the journey to pick up people, it took more than five hours.
Some people are late, and the process is quite painful. The scenic spot itself is not far at 250 kilometers. I usually go out by myself, and it is not very safe to drive after climbing the mountain.
If the whole family goes to this scenic spot together, the experience will be very good and you can also experience the joy of driving. You can consider driving there, and you can get there in three hours.
Tour introduction: No need to get up early and go to bed late. I was stunned when the tour guide called and said we would gather at 5:20. We didn't leave the county to pick people up until nearly 8 o'clock.
If you join a tour group, you must ask clearly how many counties you will be visiting. When you come back, you will be dropped off in another county and then returned to the city. The whole tour process only takes five or six hours, so there is no point in taking a car for more than ten hours.
If you are really considering joining a group tour, you can bring a cervical pillow so that you can have a good sleep.
Worth a visit.
