    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). Afternoon: Visit Jinping Mountain, which is known as the "Yuanyuan Wonderland" and "Jialing's First River and Mountain". You can stand on the top of the mountain and overlook the entire ancient city.

In the evening: Taste local specialty snacks (such as oil tea dumplings, square pot helmets, etc.) Ticket suggestions: buy one ticket to the ancient city (about 100 yuan, online purchase may be more favorable), including many core attractions in the ancient city, cost-effective, usually three days effective (each attraction can only enter once).

    This was an amazing Park to visit! I highly recommend the Monkey Wall Rope climb! Way easier than all the stairs I climbed down! Be early and get the wall to yourself! I shared with only 2 other people!! The park is in my top 5 favourite of my Sichuan parks now

    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.

    [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!

    Highly recommended. The scenery on both sides of the river is stunning, and the service is excellent. A complimentary snack is provided after the upgrade. The only thing to consider is that there are quite a few stairs and steps to climb when boarding, which might be inconvenient for elderly people with mobility issues.
