Physical strength delayed my visit to Jinci Temple

⚡️I planned to visit Tianlong Mountain and Jinci Temple for half a day each, to enjoy the beauty of nature. These two famous attractions in Taiyuan are collectively known as the Tianlong Mountain and Jinci Temple Scenic Area. Unfortunately, my physical strength was limited. I was still full of energy in the morning, but I was exhausted in the afternoon. I decided to visit Jinci Temple the next day after coming down from Tianlong Mountain. Jinci Temple, officially known as the Jinci Museum, was built in the Song Dynasty. It consists of Jinci Park and Jinci Museum. There are exhibitions such as the Dong Shouping Art Museum and the Fu Shan Memorial Hall, and collections of various categories such as painted sculptures, murals, and bronzes. The Hall of the Holy Mother, the Flying Bridge across the Fish Pond, and the Offering Hall are known as the Three Treasures of Jinci Temple. The Maidservant Statues, the Zhou Cypress, and the Never Aging Spring are known as the Three Wonders of Jinci Temple. There are also the famous plaques of Duiyue, Shuijing Platform, and Never Aging Jinci Temple. In 2001, it was rated as one of the first national 4A tourist attractions by the National Tourism Administration. At present, the Tianlong Mountain and Jinci Temple Scenic Area has been upgraded to a 5A scenic area. 🎫Tickets: Free for the park, CNY 80 for Jinci Museum, half price for students. ⏰Opening hours: Peak season: 8:30–17:30; off-season: 9:00–17:00. Some tips💡: ①The whole park is very large, so plan your route in advance🗺. ②There are sightseeing buses🚍 in the park, CNY 10, limited to two rides. ③It is recommended to visit the museum first and then the park. There are many precious cultural relics in the museum, so please do not touch them⚠️. ④There is a cultural and creative store and a coffee shop in the museum, where you can not only drink beverages but also eat noodles🍜. ⑤There is interconnection transportation🚍 between Tianlong Mountain and Jinci Temple, passing through the popular bridge. ⑥The Hall of the Holy Mother, the Flying Bridge across the Fish Pond, and the Golden Man Platform in the museum were the filming locations of the 1986 version of Journey to the West, so you can take photos📷. ⑦There are many tour guides in the park, so please choose carefully according to your needs. ⑧There are many cats in the park.
