    Langzhong Ancient City: The millennium fengshui famous city on the banks of the Jialing River is located in the northeast margin of the Sichuan Basin and the middle reaches of the Jialing River. It is a national 5A-level tourist scenic spot, and is called the "Four Ancient Citys of China" with Lijiang, Shanxi Pingyao and Anhui. The core area of the ancient city covers an area of 2 square kilometers, and the total area of the scenic spot is 4.59 square kilometers. The ancient city of Langzhong has a history of building the city for more than 2,300 years, and it was once a military town of ancient Baguo and the state of the state. In the later stages of the Warring States, the state destroyed the country and moved from Jiangzhou to the capital of Langzhong. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhang Fei, a famous general of the Han Dynasty, was once the Brazilian Taishou, and the town was guarded for seven years. He was finally buried here. The Zhang Fei Temple (Hou Temple of the Han Dynasty) in the ancient city was built to commemorate him. Yuzhong was the temporary provincial capital of Sichuan for 17 years in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty, and the Sichuan provincial township test was held here in the early Qing Dynasty. It is also the cultural hometown of the Chinese Spring Festival. The famous astronomers in the West Han Dynasty dropped the "Taichu Calendar" created by Yuan (Yuzhong) is the first complete calendar with written records in China. The layout of the ancient city reflects the ancient Chinese residential feng shui view, the chessboard-style pattern, the building complex integrating the north and south styles, forming a different architectural group such as "half-bead" and "product" fonts, which is a typical example of the "heaven and man in one" site selection in ancient China. ---First day of the 2-day tour of the ancient city of Langzhong: roaming the core area of the ancient city morning: start your day's itinerary from Huaguang Building (mount Huaguang Building, overlooking the panoramic view of the ancient city and the scenery of Jialing River). Then visit the North Sichuan Daoshu (the dispatched agency of the provincial governments of Ming and Qing dynasties, which is large in scale and rich in content) and the Confucian Temple. Afternoon: visit the Hou Temple of Han Dynasty (Zhang Fei Temple) and feel the culture of the three countries. Then go to the Gongyuan (the examination room of the Qing township test to learn about the ancient imperial examination system). In the evening: taste the ancient city food (Zhang Fei Beef, Yuzhong Beef Noodles, Yuzhong jelly), and stay in the ancient city at night (such as Huajiantang·Yuyuan, Dujia Inn, etc.). Day 2: Explore the surrounding attractions morning: Go to Baita Mountain, climb the Baita overlooking the whole view of the ancient city and the Jialing River (this is a great location to watch the feng shui pattern of the ancient city). Then go to the Big Buddha Temple (there are Buddha statues in the Tang Dynasty).

    A UNESCO World Heritage site, the Dazu complex of Buddhist cave carvings provides a fascinating but exhausting (so many steps) excursion from Chongqing, approximately 90 minutes drive. We were very lucky as we booked to share a mini bus but ended up with a private car just for us with an extremely friendly, helpful and careful driver. As we're both over 65, we got free entry although we had to pay Y20 each for the site shuttle bus. A trip that takes some effort but is certainly worth it.

    抓住假期的尾巴,带孩子们方特一-日游。 还好今天人相对不是太多,想玩的项目基本上都感受过了,除了错过了《神话》外,其他都很完美。友情提示:《神话》 平时下午五点就闭馆了,下次要早点去。推荐《哪吒闹海》、《女娲补天》、《伴你飞翔》、《九州神韵》 .... 《伴你飞翔》是4D大屏感受凌空飞翔鸟瞰神州大地风光,伴随着《我和我的祖国》的歌声感觉无比骄傲自豪。《九州神韵》 巨幕立体展示了中国华夏5000年的历史轨迹,身临其境地.上了一场精彩的历史课,适合带小朋友一起观看。《哪吒闹海》 、《女娲补天》 、《水漫 金山》都是4D结合水上漂流,类似于迪士尼的《加勒比海盗》,紧张刺激,好开心国产动漫也完全不输给歪果仁。《孟姜女》 的舞美超级棒,就是剧情有点烂~儿子- -边看- -边问我,孟姜女为了万喜良哭垮了长城,不是需要更多无辜的男人来修补吗?不得不说,现在孩子思考问题的方式真的不一样~《梁祝》是真人结合4D特效演绎的经典爱情故事,值得一看。好像仿佛,方特里面关于爱情主题的都是杯具~可能,有遗憾的爱情才会流传千古吧....忙里偷闲,还带女儿去玩了水,感觉今天效率有点高~走了一万多步~特别要表扬一下方特的排队区,居然很多地方都有座位,这一点真的太人性化了,让等待时也不会太辛苦了。最后提示大家,尽可能平时工作日去,周末一定会排队排哭的.

    [View] Ciqikou is really super charming! Entering the ancient town, the bluestone road is winding, and the Ming and Qing style buildings on both sides are scattered and full of Bayan style. The special snacks such as Chen Mahua and Mao Xuewang on the street are full of aroma and authentic taste. [Fun] Baolun Temple is solemn and solemn, with ancient ginkgo branches and leaves. You can also order a cup of tea in the teahouse, watch a Sichuan drama change face, and feel the leisure of old Chongqing. It is lively during the day, and the lights at night are another beautiful scenery. It is worth punching in!

    It is crowded so make sure to take your time, but it's worth it, the pandas are really cute and fun to see. Also make sure to not go if it's hot outside, they won't be out in the heat. I found the place very well organised, directions and marks everywhere so it's very easy to navigate inside
