The ancient city of Pingyao, alas, is just a wandering living person, and every stone road can creak and take you back to ancient times!
On that day, I was like an explorer, stepping on stones that have been baptized by years and running wildly in the ancient city.
Just at the corner of an alley, I found a treasure hidden in the corner-turret!
God, that turret stands there like a guardian, seemingly inconspicuous, but there are infinite stories inside.
I gently touched its wall, as if I could feel the precipitation of years. Climb the stairs and climb the roof, and you can have a panoramic view of the whole ancient city.
At this height, I seem to be the master of this city, watching the crowds coming and going and thinking about how many vicissitudes have happened here in ancient times.
I can't help but think of the story my grandfather told when I was a child. Life in the ancient city is so colorful, and this turret is like a fragment bearing that memory.

Hey, when it comes to hanging temples, I really have endless topics! That place made me feel not only the beauty of religion, but also the harmony between man and nature.
I still remember that time I went to the Hanging Temple. At first, the journey was like entering a fairyland. The magnificent scenery of the canyon really amazed me.
Finally saw the hanging temple on the cliff. It seems to float on the cliff out of thin air, which makes me feel awe.
Walking into the temple, I seem to have entered a mysterious world.
Exquisitely carved Buddha statues and magnificent halls with golden walls reveal the solemnity and calmness of a religion everywhere.
I sit here quietly, close my eyes and feel inner peace, as if I were integrated with the universe.
Climbing to the height of the temple, I looked around. The mountains are undulating and misty, as if they were in a fairyland on earth.
I remember standing by the railing, looking up at the sky, filled with feelings about the beauty of the universe.

3. The blending of nature and humanity in Hukou Waterfall;
Hukou Waterfall, well, is a place that makes me lament the wonders of nature. Last time I went, I was really shocked by the blend of nature and humanity.
The scenery along the way was beautiful enough, but when I stood next to Hukou Waterfall, I was really shocked by what I saw.
The surging water poured down from a height and hit the canyon, as if nature were showing her strength.
The diaojiao building next to the waterfall makes this beautiful scenery not fierce, but more harmonious.
I used to sit under the eaves of a diaojiao building, watching the fast-flowing water, and my mood was very quiet.
The wooden structure of this diaojiao building blends with the surrounding scenery, as if it were the perfect combination of human wisdom and natural beauty. I can't help sighing how good human beings are at living in harmony with nature.
Standing by the waterfall, I imagined how the ancients built these diaojiao buildings and how they lived in the embrace of nature.
The voices that used to laugh under the eaves of these buildings are now blown away by the wind, but their existence makes this land warmer.
Recommended reason:
Of course, it is because Hukou Waterfall is not only a natural landscape, but also the crystallization of human history. The diaojiao building and the waterfall complement each other, as if it were an embrace between man and nature.
When you come here, you can feel the shock of nature and the harmony between man and nature.
So, don't forget to come to Hukou Waterfall, let the blend of nature and humanity touch your heart and bring you unparalleled experience.

4. Daguanlou in Yushe County:
On that day, my friends and I heard that there was an ancient grand view building in Yushe County, so we decided to take a hiking expedition.
When I saw this building, I was just attracted by its magnificence. Daguanlou stands towering on the hillside, as if it were the throne of ancient wise men.
I climbed onto the roof. Wow, the fields and villages below are shining in the sun. It's so beautiful that I almost shed tears.
I sat quietly on the roof, feeling the breeze, and my mood seemed to float.
The tranquility and grandeur here really keep me away from the noise of the city. I took out my mobile phone and captured these beautiful moments. I'm really afraid to wake up and find that it's just a dream.
A friendly local came over and chatted with us about the history of Daguanlou.
It turns out that this building has a history of 100 years, and it has been baptized by years, but it still stands. Listening to his narrative, I seem to go back in time and feel the context of history.
Recommended reason:
If you come to Shanxi, don't miss the Daguanlou. This is not only an ancient building, but also a witness of history.
Here, you can get close to nature and feel its beauty. Communicating with local people and understanding their stories will make you more deeply understand the humanistic heritage of this land.
In a word, the Daguanlou in Yushe County is the highlight of my trip to Shanxi. It not only shows the massiness of history before my eyes, but also arouses my inner reverence for ancient wisdom.
