Visit Yanmen Pass.

☘️☘️☘️Yanmen Pass is known as the "First Pass of China". It connects Datong in the north and Taiyuan in the south. It can control the vast grasslands and defend the Guanzhong region. It has been a famous strategic pass in northern China since ancient times. Since the Zhao Wuling King of the Warring States Period, Yanmen Pass has been regarded as a strategic location by all dynasties. The current Yanmen Pass Scenic Area is a reconstruction of the Ming Dynasty Yanmen Pass ruins. The scenic area is very large. To enter the scenic area, you need to take a shuttle bus to the Yang Family General Sculpture. Then, from Mingyue Tower - Bianmao Street - North Gate. The main scenic area is inside the North Gate, which is the original Wengcheng Gate. On the ancient pass road under the gate, there are traces of ancient cart ruts. The main scenic area includes Wengcheng Gate, Dili Gate and Yang Liulang Temple, Guan Office, Tianxian Gate and Guan Tower, Zhenbian Temple, Ancient Pass Road, Stele Forest, Enemy Tower, etc. Due to the large size of the scenic area and the long ancient pass road, it takes at least 2-3 hours to visit all the attractions. There are many historical sites to visit near Yanmen Pass, such as the Ming Guangwu Great Wall Ruins, the tombs of Han Dynasty border generals, and the ancient city of Dai County. The Guangwu Ming Great Wall Ruins are also worth visiting. Most of the Yanmen Pass Scenic Area is rebuilt, only the Guangwu Ming Great Wall has not been artificially restored. It is one of the most complete brick-faced Ming Great Walls in existence. The local government has only restored the iconic "Moon Gate" of the Guangwu Ming Great Wall, while the other remaining Great Walls have been preserved in their original state. The remaining sections of the original Great Wall, built on the mountain, look quite old from afar. If you have enough time, after visiting the main scenic area of Yanmen Pass and the Ming Guangwu Great Wall Ruins, you can also visit the tombs of Han Dynasty border generals and the ancient city of Dai County. 👀Note: 1. Visiting Yanmen Pass is quite physically demanding, especially the main scenic area of Yanmen Pass and the Ming Guangwu Ming Great Wall, where there are many places to climb. Please arrange your time to visit the scenic area according to your physical strength. 2. Although the shuttle bus in the main scenic area is a short distance, it can save some energy. It is still recommended for people with poor physical strength to take it. 3. If the weather is sunny, be sure to prepare for sun protection. Wear a wide-brimmed hat and sun protection clothing. During the tour, you will be exposed to the sun a lot, so you need to cover yourself from top to bottom.
