Arrive at Jincheng East Bus Station in about 2.5 hours. Lunch at Hehe Liu. Visit the museum in the afternoon. The museum is not big, 2-3 hours is enough. No entry after 4 pm. Remember to make a reservation on the official account in advance. Unlike other museums with underground cultural relics, the entire 4th floor is a collection of ancient architectural art treasures. It is recommended to start from the 4th floor and work your way down. Dinner at Shi Xiaowan opposite the museum. Dinner starts at 5:30 pm. You can wait inside after visiting the museum. We ordered black goji berry tofu, wild vegetable rolls, Mao Tou meatballs, and yellow pear sea cucumber with fried pork (recommended). Small portions are available, so you can try more dishes. Very good. Day 2: We didn't book a bus in the morning, so we took a taxi to Qinglian Temple. The fare is 20 yuan. You can pay the driver an extra 10 yuan for parking. The driver will take you directly to the lower temple. We didn't take the shuttle bus. We arrived at the lower temple before 9 am. There were few people and it was very quiet.
