I went to Shanxi to go is a matter of two years ago, but that was my college career, the best trip, it is worth remembering.
I have the local students, so a lot of things arranged in advance, and more relaxing. We also went to Taiyuan boarded the train, after more than 20 hours to Taiyuan, and then transfer to the Wutai Mountain is located in Xinzhou Region, the next morning departure to Mount Wutai, to the Wutai Mountain road pretty good, sitting in the van's deputy seat is very stimulating, it seems turn the corner will be open to the bottom of the cliff. Wutai Mountain into the mountains fees are really high, then each person is necessary to more than 100, but fortunately my classmates father and the people there and cooked, so do not get a cent. Mount Wutai on the stay expensive, small shop with hot water did not break, there's boys say, use the cold bath, but just wash your hands just a bit to recover their own declaration, and where the water is very cold in the summer!
There are several places on the Wutai Mountain is not not go, one obvious pass Temple, which is the Tang Dynasty Temple, which many monuments are worth seeing, if go early, the road can also be mushroom (but you have to recognize what kind of mushrooms are poisonous), similar to other temples, there is nothing fun; there is a place that Dailuo Ding, preferably rushed there to watch the sunrise, and we get up at four points, but have yet to see ... ... where there are 1008 steps , many Buddhist devotees Koushou woman step in a very pious; And then there are the far guanyin cave, where there is a natural spring, buy a bucket (2) or bring their own bottles, is free, springs cool, barrels on the outside will have a layer of mist.
Those on the Wutai Mountain shops selling jade and other craft stores is best not to go, things too expensive to buy but also to the 12 cut off the so-called light of the Buddha has opened heaven knows is not true. There are guanyin cave in front of the stalls selling a lot of crystal, all is a fake! Do not fooled! Mount Wutai is a staple on the Taiwan mushroom yield very few, very expensive, and I do not recognize that is true, if there is no reliable "experts" pointing, or not to go to the people sent to slaughter!
Because it is the old revolutionary base Xinzhou, so along the way there are many relics of Anti-Japanese War, there is a tunnel warfare site, there are some places where generals once lived, tickets are not expensive, if you do not trouble can still go and see the.
Xinzhou Another feature is the local rich geothermal resources, we should take some of the hot spring hotel near the city of Xinzhou away from here, swim in natural spring water, very nice oh! Mount Wutai Scenic Area other than to eat a little less expensive, but the amount is enough. Where the black stew meat (equivalent to Pork), with pots filled with the point up a pound a pound point, very northern bold momentum! As for dinner, because pockets are too flat, no air to try.
Shanxi this place a bit chaotic, late time to avoid conflict with others, security for the last!
