Things to do in Hunyuan

Thật sự là mình đã nhầm lối đi lên chùa treo khi quay lại xếp hàng rất dài và chờ rất lâu. Ở Trung Quốc mọi thứ đều xếp hàng dài, nhưng chùa treo giới hạn lượt leo nên các bạn nên dành thời gian ở đây ít nhất 6 tiếng. Tránh xếp lịch dày

The Hengshan shuttle bus from the east city wall of Datong Ancient City is very convenient. It departs on time, the seats are clean, and it goes directly to the Hengshan Visitor Center, saving you the hassle of transferring. It's good value for money, and choosing it for your trip to Hengshan is worry-free 👍 and they are very responsible.

Overall, it's quite good. The Yuan Dynasty architecture has been restored to Ming and Qing Dynasty styles, and the sculptures are located in the center of Hunyuan County. Entering through the archway, there's an ancient pagoda nearby, and several halls to explore. The space is fairly large, ending at a cultural and creative shop. After exiting, you can circle back to the exit and walk back to the Drum Tower archway. The Ming Dynasty murals are fantastic. There's a well-done small museum near the exit. The cultural and creative products are just average, lacking the distinctive features of Yong'an Temple. I think it needs improvement.

The highlight is that it hides many national treasure-level ancient buildings such as the Yuan Dynasty murals of Yong'an Zen Temple and the Jin Dynasty brick pagoda of Yuanjue Temple. The ancient streets and alleys retain the original ecological atmosphere, and the cheap food experience is excellent when paired with authentic Hunyuan jelly and other cheap delicacies.

Just a few hundred meters from Yong'an Temple is Yuanjue Temple, where only this octagonal, nine-story, multi-eaved brick pagoda from the Jin Dynasty remains. The Sumeru pedestal features figures of musicians, reflecting ethnic minority characteristics. Only one level of the pagoda has open space, containing Buddha statues and murals. It is said to be poorly preserved and not open to the public. Only one small door on the first floor can be opened; the remaining four are decorative stone doors. The back of the four doors, which can be opened, features a carving of a woman opening a door. I last saw this at the Ancient Tomb Museum. Furthermore, the windows with railings on the sides are also non-openwork decorations. The small metal bird atop the pagoda is said to be the only surviving "wind-following bird" in China, still able to change direction according to the wind. I'm very curious about the type of base that supports its turning. In the 1970s, this brick tower was used as a water tower (I heard this from the guide, and there are photos in the exhibition hall, but I don't quite understand), while the current Bell Tower and Drum Tower were originally men's and women's bathhouses... There are guided tours available at the entrance for 100 yuan, lasting about half an hour.

The Hunyuan Prefecture Office recreates the scene of ancient government offices handling cases. It is located in the center of Hunyuan City, with convenient transportation and only a wall away from the Confucian Temple. Hengshan Mountain can be seen from the courtyard of the Hunyuan Prefecture Office.

It provides tourists with a convenient way to climb to the top of Hengshan Mountain. It is 1,697 meters long and has a drop of 470.7 meters. It can be reached in 7 minutes and 50 seconds at the fastest, and visitors can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Hengshan Mountain.

The main building is the Sanguan Hall, and the Leiyin Hall is a place for worshipping Taoism. The statues of Taoism are enshrined in the halls. The main building is the Sansheng Hall, which enshrines Buddhist statues.

Hengshan Mountain (formerly known as Changshan Mountain, Hengzong Mountain, etc.), located in Hunyuan County, is located in the Shanxi fault uplift zone and is a 4A scenic spot in China. The main peak of Hengshan Mountain, Tianfengling, is a typical print-style fault mountain with a layer of cliffs and a layer of green belts, and the scenery is magnificent. Hengshan Mountain has a profound Taoist cultural heritage. There are more than 60 palaces and temples around the main peak alone. Hengshan Mountain is a famous Taoist mountain. According to records, there were alchemists who made elixirs in the Western Han Dynasty in the Hengshan area. In the Tang Dynasty, a large number of temples were built for Taoists to practice. Hengshan Mountain is also the "fifth cave heaven" of the Taoist thirty-six small cave heavens.
