★Xianmen Mountain, Sanmenxia
Xianmen Mountain is located at the junction of the Qinling and Taihang Mountains, and is a water conservation area for the Yellow River. The main peak is 1,347 meters above sea level. It is connected to the Qinling Mountains in the west, overlooks the Yellow River in the north, is adjacent to the ancient capital Luoyang in the east, and connects the plains of central and eastern China with the loess hills of the west. Here, you can enjoy a distant view of the winding Yellow River, and a close view of the Qinling and Taihang Mountains.
The mountain is famous for its unique quartz sand landform, and is a combination of seclusion, steepness, danger, and wonder. The scenery is of high quality, and the views change with the seasons. The Cuiping Valley and Taoming Valley scenic areas in the park are both national-level scenic areas.
This is also the cave storage base for Yangshao wine. The caves in the mountain stretch for more than ten miles, and the storage capacity of raw wine reaches 30,000 tons.
This is a relatively niche destination, and not very well-known, but the scenic area is well-developed, and there is Wi-Fi coverage throughout the mountain, so you don't have to worry about losing signal.
The mountain is lush with trees, and there are pools and waterfalls every few steps. It is quiet, with a temperature of just over 20°C, making it a great place for a family outing, leisure, and summer vacation. Tickets are CNY 75 (free with the Henan Tourism Card).

Henan--Yangshao Scenic Area
Sister Na loves traveling + follow
The air is so fresh that it feels like a natural oxygen bar. The mountain is filled with layers of tree shade and the sound of birds chirping.
I haven't climbed a mountain in many years, and surprisingly, it's not sunny here at all.
Then there's the crazy photo-taking for her (click click).
Little tips: When climbing, remember to wear comfortable shoes and a small backpack is enough to carry a power bank.
The latter part of the mountain is a bit steep, and I, lacking exercise, have started to use both hands and feet! Halfway through, I really felt like giving up, but my mom is truly amazing. She was very passionate and kept encouraging me to climb higher, which shows that having an excellent companion is really important when climbing!
Only at the final moment of reaching the top did I understand what they mean by 'a worthwhile human experience'!
They say it's easy to go up the mountain but hard to come down, and it's not an exaggeration at all. Right now, my legs are already starting to feel weak.
But the fun of Xianmen Mountain has just begun... The Forest Sea Airship,
just 300 meters from the Drunken Cloud Pavilion and you'll see it!
I thought it was just an ordinary little train, but I didn't expect that this 80 yuan was spent so worthily!
Discover niche treasures by visiting the Yangshao Culture Museum!
The Yangshao culture is part of the Neolithic era, which we've encountered in our history textbooks. The small-mouthed, pointed-bottomed pots🏺 and the human-faced fish-patterned basins are all from the Yangshao culture.
The museum boasts a rich collection of artifacts, and there's also a heritage park nearby. The venue's exterior is designed as a red clay pottery meditation space, which I believe will be particularly photogenic for the ladies who love taking pictures in museums.
If you ask me what is the best calling card for a city, I would definitely say it's the museums here.
Long'er Temple in Mianchi County, Henan
Long'er Temple is located on a slope more than 200 meters south of Anbei Village, Zhangcun Town, Mianchi County. Originally named Shengshouyuan, its founding date is unknown. It was renamed Long'er Temple in the sixteenth year of the Dading era of the Jin Dynasty. It was rebuilt multiple times during the Zhengde and Jiajing periods of the Ming Dynasty, as well as during the Kangxi and Xianfeng periods of the Qing Dynasty. Due to years of neglect and historical reasons, some important cultural relics of the temple were severely damaged, and later it was converted into a school, resulting in serious destruction of the temple. The existing structures include the mountain gate and the main hall, with symmetrical side halls on both the east and west sides between the main hall and the mountain gate, another side hall on the east side behind the main hall, and two parallel side halls 15 meters to the west of the main hall, standing alone. Each hall has three bays. There is a brick relief screen wall on the east and west sides of the front wall of the mountain gate. The existing buildings are relatively well-preserved, with unique brick relief patterns on the screen walls on both sides of the mountain gate, and the dougong brackets under the eaves of the main hall have the style of the Jin and Yuan periods, which are of certain reference value for the study of temple architecture and brick carving art in the western Henan region. On June 16, 2008, it was announced by the People's Government of Henan Province as the fifth batch of provincial key cultural relics protection units.

⭐️Four treasures of the museum
1⃣Crescent-patterned colored pottery jar, the jar is overall reddish-brown, with a round belly and flat bottom. The surface of the utensil is polished smooth, and a white and black pattern similar to a crescent is drawn on the abdomen, which is a national first-class cultural relic. It is the treasure of the Miaodigou Museum in Sanmenxia, and it is also the only complete colored pottery jar unearthed in the third excavation of the Yangshao Village site.
2⃣Arc-line triangle-patterned colored pottery basin, clay red pottery, both inside and outside the wall are coated with red clothes, a narrow black pattern is drawn around the lip and the outside of the edge, and a black arc-line triangle and dot pattern is drawn on the upper abdomen. It is the only complete utensil unearthed in the second excavation of the Miaodigou site. The combination of arc-line triangles and dot patterns forms an endless pattern, adding a mysterious color to the Miaodigou culture colored pottery.
3⃣Red pottery bowl
4⃣Goose head curved neck bronze pot, when the pot was unearthed, the liquid in the pot was as much as 3000ml, which was later analyzed by experts to be ancient wine from the early Western Han Dynasty, and ash and plant ash were added, which was quite consistent with the medical book 'Fifty-two Disease Prescriptions' unearthed in Changsha Mawangdui. It is a medicinal liquor that can stop bleeding and reduce inflammation. Cultural relic value: From the currently unearthed goose head curved neck bronze pots, we can boldly estimate that there may have been swans in Sanmenxia during the late Qin and early Han periods, which is rare.
