Ming Tombs N-Brush Strategy - Dingling

Placed at the front, the full strategy (pure experience, not an official press release, safe to consume) —— First, choose one that can transfer to '872' based on your address, just get on it 📍First stop: Get off at 'Dagongmen', walk through the red gate to visit 'Sacred Way', basically 40 minutes is enough, you can take a close look at each statue 📍Second stop: Turn right at the exit of 'Sacred Way', take the bus to 'Changling', basically 1 hour is enough, focus on the main hall inside 📍Third stop: Turn right at the exit of 'Changling', take the bus to 'Dingling', about 2 hours, focus on the underground palace and the regular exhibitions on both sides 📍Fourth stop: Walk straight from the exit of 'Dingling', at the entrance of the scenic area, take the bus to 'Zhaoling', get off and walk straight into the village following the direction you came from, and you will see it 📍Finally: Return to the place where you got off, 'Chang 78' back to 'Dagongmen', '872' back to the city . 🔔Several key reminders: 🉑There are few strategies that suggest the order of visiting, especially the order of Zhaoling and Changling, because Zhaoling is different from the other three spots, not connected by a single bus line, so many strategies ignore this part, this time I seriously studied the route, this order is the most convenient, no extra detour 🉑When you arrive at the scenic spot, you don't need to memorize the bus lines hard, just find the stops mentioned in my strategy, follow the above process, and take whichever bus comes, it's really unnecessary to stick to those few buses and wait for a long time (that's why many illegal cabs will say, waiting for the bus takes a long time) 🉑Recommend visiting in spring or autumn, there's nothing to block the view, summer and winter can be really cold and hot . 🏕️Next is the scenic area part 👣Dingling: It's the internet-famous scenic spot of the Ming Tombs, and there will be relatively more people —————————————————————————— 🚩Visiting highlights: see the underground palace + climb Ming Tower + stroll through exhibitions + feed cats ➡️The underground palace is an open real underground mausoleum, with the emperor and empress's seats and coffins placed inside, currently, the main part you can visit is the rear chamber, the ear chamber part is not yet open, the focus is to experience the 'underground' feeling, sinking about 5 or 6 floors deep, with a noticeable coolness, after entering the space is very large, very high ceiling, both sides are cold stone rocks, very shocking (not recommended to take photos) ➡️Ming Tower is the best place to feel the entire mausoleum landscape, it is recommended to experience the scenery well on it ➡️There are two regular exhibitions at the entrance of the underground palace, introducing some historical situations, it will be more touching to see before entering the underground palace ➡️Cats may have to be left to fate, choose a time with plenty of sunshine to stroll, the probability of encountering them is higher . The route of Dingling is relatively fixed, from the entrance - exhibition area - underground palace - Ming Tower - exit, you can end very smoothly It is recommended not to have too high expectations for the underground palace, the focus is on the feeling of the scene Because the things inside the underground palace are actually very few, the whole journey may just take about ten minutes, to 'bad review' a bit, it's just three stools, three coffins, but! The feeling of being there is very rare, it is recommended to focus on the experience~
