Taihang Grand Canyon

Taihang Grand Canyon Scenic Area has typical northern landscape features. The entire scenic area is divided into three major areas: Peach Blossom Valley, Wangxiang Rock and Taiji Iceberg.
The waterscape of Taohua Valley is the most beautiful. The valley is lush with vegetation, streams and waterfalls are everywhere, and the air is fresh. It is a good place to relax.
If you like mountain climbing, you can go to Wangxiangyan. In the scenic area, there are not only plank roads carved into the cliff, but also 80-meter-high tube ladders built on the cliff, which are thrilling and interesting.
The natural wonders are equally eye-catching. There is ice in the cave that never melts all year round, which makes people marvel after seeing it.

The weather was bad, and in terms of the actual scenery, Taihang Grand Canyon was indeed much worse than Enshi and Yarlung Zangbo. But perhaps because of the tragic wars here in recent history, or perhaps because the cliffs dived without any buffer or room, it makes people feel that if mountains also have anthropomorphic images, Taihang must be a man with a stubble on his face, a firm gaze, and an incomparable determination.

By Jiao Youyou |

Purchase tickets at the east gate of Linzhou Peach Blossom Valley (80 yuan for tickets + 60 yuan for scenic area shuttle, valid for two days, free for those over 60 years old). Linzhou Grand Canyon is also called Taihang Grand Canyon, also known as Linzhou Peach Blossom Valley. Three of its attractions are 5A (Peach Blossom Valley with Cascading Waterfalls and Springs, Taihang Sky Road in a Hundred Miles Gallery, Wang Xiangyan, the Soul of Taihang, the Primitive Ecological Canyon Rafting, and Xianxia Valley, a paradise on earth). The prices of tickets and scenic shuttle buses here are more reasonable than those of other attractions in Taihang Mountains I have visited before.

The Grand Canyon scenic area is divided into three parts, namely Taohua Valley, Taihang Sky Road and Wangxiang Rock.

By Summer Sunshine |

A canyon with a Taihang Mountain flavor, with nice views, best to go in summer

By Zhou Shengjun |

To be honest, the scenery is nice, but it is not beautiful during holidays.

By National Herbal Medicine |

It's worth a visit, especially in summer, when there is less water.

By Convention |

The mountains in late autumn have a special flavor! Photos can't capture their beauty! You can go and see

By Zior Schen |

China has a vast territory and numerous mountains and rivers. As long as you are willing to look for it, you can escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and come to a paradise on earth to vacation, cultivate your body and mind, and indulge in nature!

By Cat baby |

We went to Taohua Valley and Tianlu in Taihang Grand Canyon. Taohua Valley has beautiful scenery and is worth a visit, but Tianlu is not recommended.

By Always in my heart. |

The Taihang Grand Canyon Scenic Area is currently divided into three parts: Taohua Valley, Wangxiang Rock, and Taihang Sky Road. You can use the pass to visit. Taohua Valley will never disappoint you. Take the scenic area's small transportation to visit Taihang Sky Road. The driver stops at three viewing platforms and does not stop on the way down. Wangxiang Rock is an old scenic spot that requires physical support. Only by climbing high can you see far. The Sky Ladder is worth experiencing. The Linzhou people's courage to think and do is fully demonstrated.

By Uncle Pantang |

Taihang Grand Canyon is located at the junction of Henan and Shanxi provinces. It is one of the ten most beautiful canyons in China. It is located in Shibanyan Township, Linzhou City, Henan Province. Tickets: 160 yuan, including sightseeing bus, valid for two days.

It was like encountering Taihang for the first time. Standing at the gate, the first thing I saw was the majestic Yingfeng Peak in Hongshi Gorge. I was so excited that I opened my mouth wide and couldn’t even utter “ah”.

By Wandering around the world |

The Taihang Grand Canyon is a combined ticket for three attractions, including Taohua Valley, Wangxiang Rock, and Taihang Sky Road, with shuttle bus service.

By soul |

Peach Blossom Valley, Taihang Sky Road, Wangyanxiang; Peach Blossom Valley is the most beautiful, see picture

By Ying Ying |

Take bus No. 1 from Linzhou Bus Station to the Tourist Service Center. It is quiet and beautiful here, with very few tourists. I didn't expect so few people on the first day of the holiday. Go up the stairs to the place where you can take the scenic bus. Twenty minutes later, you will arrive at the Taohua Valley Scenic Area parking lot. The number of tourists has increased significantly, but it is definitely much quieter than other scenic spots. The scenery along the way from the gate of Taohua Valley Scenic Area to the entrance of the core scenic area is spectacular. You must choose good weather to come to Taihang Grand Canyon to really see the beautiful scenery. Or it is beautiful when it is sunny after rain. Don't go in weather with poor visibility, otherwise the scenery will be greatly reduced. Entering the entrance of Taohua Valley Walking Scenic Area, there is no one at all, it doesn't look like the May Day holiday at all~ Just what I want. A few minutes after entering the scenic area, the famous Huanglongtan is here~ This is a good place for concave shape, but it's a pity that there are too many people. It's really inconvenient to use a tripod here alone. I can only take a few photos casually. In fact, the plank road in the mountains is my favorite. It's not tiring, and you can see beautiful scenery. It's like walking in mid-air~ After walking through Huanglongtan, you will start to walk on the plank road. After leaving Taohua Valley Scenic Area, walk forward along the road for a few minutes to the bus stop of Taihang Tianlu Scenic Area and line up to get on the bus. The road along the way is a two-way single lane, but some turns still can't miss the car. Move and change the scenery. The scenery along the way can be said to be the essence of the entire Taihang Grand Canyon. Tucao: The transportation from Anyang to Taihang Grand Canyon is inconvenient, inconvenient! ! ! ! It took 4 hours from Anyang to the gate of Taohua Valley Scenic Area on the first day, and it took 5 hours from the gate of Wangxiangyan Scenic Area to Anyang on the second day. Therefore, it is recommended that friends drive themselves, or charter a car if there are many people.

By Not just this summer |

There are three major scenic spots here: Taohua Valley, Taihang Sky Road, and Wangxiang Rock. 1. Taohua Valley is a valley within a valley, about 4km long, with an altitude of about 800m-1736m, and a height difference of nearly 1,000 meters. There are many waterfalls and waterways. 2. Taihang Sky Road, you can take a sightseeing bus the whole way, get off at a scenic spot, and then continue to take the bus after the visit. This design is good, saving time and not wasting time, and you can see everything you should see. 3. Wangxiangyan Scenic Area is adjacent to the stream in the east and the cliff in the west. It is surrounded by cliffs on both sides, forming a very closed valley, which meets the newly-opened Zhuque Peak. It is in line with the ancient Chinese Feng Shui "Zuo Qinglongtao". There is a short glass plank road to walk on. Don't be afraid, this section of glass is not very transparent, so you can take pictures as a souvenir. After playing on this glass plank road, you need to walk on a wooden plank road to feel the downhill road and nature. Finally, you arrive at the Dream Valley, and the Taihang Tianlu Scenic Area is also the end of the tour. Take the bus down the mountain here. There is a sign here, and it says There is a bicycle track in Taihang Grand Canyon, which feels awesome. I don't know if it has not been fully developed yet, or it was only launched during the bicycle race. At present, you can't go in to see it. Summary: 1. The scenery is beautiful and fun. It is recommended to visit it for two days if you have time. 2. The prices of supermarkets in the scenic area are OK, but the taste of the food is very average. 3. There are relatively few toilets on the way. It is recommended to go to the toilet immediately when you arrive at a scenic spot. Otherwise, follow the signs, hundreds of meters and hundreds of meters, which is just a consolation. You have to wait until the next scenic spot to find a toilet. In short, this is a happy trip. Take out your camera to take more pictures.

The Red Flag Canal can be completed in one day, while the Taihang Grand Canyon is a trip of at least two days. So we decided to go to the Taihang Grand Canyon and ensure two days of fun. In order to avoid peak hours, we set off in the afternoon of May Day. We booked a hotel for the next day on the mountain. What should we do if we are not allowed to go up the mountain? My companions have made up their minds to take the scenic area car down the mountain at night and then drive up the mountain. Unexpectedly, the scenic area was poorly organized. We waited at the foot of the mountain for half an hour, but did not see an environmentally friendly car coming down to pick people up. There were already thousands of stranded passengers in the scenic area service center. The management of the scenic area had no way to do it, but just let us wait. Experience the Taihang Tianlu Taohua Valley Scenic Spot by Car Introduction Taohua Valley Scenic Area is a valley in the Taihang Grand Canyon and the core attraction of the Taihang Grand Canyon Scenic Area. It is a natural scenic area dominated by mountains, valleys, pools and caves. Take a small bus to visit Taihang Tianlu. The "Taihang Tianlu" scenic area is located on the top of Taihang Mountain, starting from Taohua Valley Scenic Area in the north and ending at Xianxia Valley Scenic Area in the south. It is about 30km long. It is not only an important part of the scenic area's circular tour road, but also an excellent location to overlook the magnificent scenery of Taihang Mountain. Take a sightseeing bus to travel on Taihang Tianlu. The deep canyon and upright rock walls bring tourists a strong visual shock. Taihang Tianlu has not been developed yet, and many attractions are not open. Currently, 5 viewing platforms are open, but there are no trails for the time being. The biggest advantage of Taihang Grand Canyon is that although the ticket is expensive, it includes all expenses. Unlike other scenic spots, the glass plank road is charged separately.

By There is no past, |

If the Red Flag Canal Scenic Area is a red educational base, passing on the connotation of the Red Flag Canal spirit to future generations and leading generations of Linzhou people to move forward, then the Taihang Grand Canyon is a hundred-mile painting, a natural oxygen bar, where you can forget the hustle and bustle of the world and linger. The beauty of the Taihang Grand Canyon cannot be described in words, and it is a bit stiff to only post photos. If you have the opportunity, I sincerely invite all hikers to experience it. The Dream Valley is the last attraction in the Taohua Valley Scenic Area of the Taihang Grand Canyon. The rest is still under development. In the future, it is expected to be connected with another scenic spot in the Taihang Grand Canyon-Wangxiangyan Scenic Area, so that tourists don’t have to take a car to the gate of Wangxiangyan.

By Liu Xiaomeng is so cute |

Taohua Valley, one of the scenic spots in Taihang Grand Canyon, is the most beautiful spot in the Grand Canyon. It integrates the beauty of Chinese mountains and rivers very well. There are waterfalls all the way, clear streams, mysterious abyss water curtain caves, and in spring, the mountains are covered with peach blossoms. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a fairyland.

By Han Feihome |

The Taihang Grand Canyon Scenic Area is divided into three major areas: Taohua Valley, Wangxiang Rock and Taiji Iceberg. Taohua Valley is a deep stream scenery; Wangxiang Rock is a mountain climbing scenery with a panoramic view of the mountains. It is said that there is a tube ladder towering into the clouds, which is very unique; Taiji Iceberg seems to be not open yet, and the specific situation is unclear. For details, please see the travel notes: http://www.mafengwo.cn/i/7609757.html

The most beautiful scenery of the majestic Taihang Mountains is in South Taihang Mountains. This is a must-visit place in life... As long as you come, you will be satisfied with the scenery!

By The wind is blowing |

Unexpectedly, although it is late autumn, the scenery is still impressive. You can imagine how beautiful it should be in the rainy summer season. Before going to the Red Flag Canal, I had never heard of this scenic spot, so I didn't expect much. I didn't expect the real scene to be so beautiful. Although it is not as magnificent as the Grand Canyon in the United States, it is also unique and worth a visit. The main attractions are Taohua Valley and Taihang Tianlu. Taohua Valley requires you to go up along the mountain stream by yourself, and the scenery is beautiful. In the summer when there is a lot of rain, it should be more quiet and beautiful. Taihang Tianlu is to take the scenic bus. There are viewing platforms along the way. You can watch the canyons and rock walls of Taihang Mountain, which form a strong contrast of one hard and one soft with Taohua Valley, which is very shocking.

By Yijiang |

The route of the Taihang Grand Canyon Scenic Area is very long. It takes nearly two hours to walk and play in Taohua Valley. You must take the scenic sightseeing bus to the Taihang Sky Road. Because the Taihang Sky Road has beautiful scenery and a long route, if you like taking pictures, you need to play for more than three hours. The Wangxiangyan Scenic Area is several kilometers away. If you want to have a good time, you need to go back to Linzhou or live in Shibanyan Township, and go to Wangxiangyan the next day. If you choose to hike to enter the scenic area, you must enter from Taohua Valley. The first attraction of Taohua Valley Scenic Area is Taohuatan, and the canyon behind it is called Feilong Gorge. The natural scenery of Shibanyan is very beautiful. The unique residents here are also a scene. It is very naturally and harmoniously integrated into the mountains and waters of the Taihang Grand Canyon, which amazes tourists.

During the National Day holiday, it is mandatory to sell a pass, Wang Xiangyan and Taohuagu are bundled for 160 yuan. The rip-off is that I went to Pingshun, Shanxi and did not stop at Wang Xiangyan. The two scenic spots are far apart. Taohuagu is good, but selling it for 160 is a rip-off.

The area is characterized by high cliffs, majestic peaks, crisscrossing terraces and walls, turbulent Cangxi River, and waterfalls hanging in all directions. The peaks, ridges, terraces, walls, gorges, waterfalls, ridges, and springs are in various shapes and forms, making it a typical representative of the northern landscape.

Taihang Mountain has left its most beautiful section to Linzhou. In late autumn, you can walk into the Taihang Grand Canyon to enjoy the red leaves, listen to the wind, and watch the sea of clouds. The whole mountain is red, the forests are dyed red, the fruits are fragrant, and the bright red persimmons are hanging on the branches. I wish all the travelers from the south and the north will have everything they wish for.

It was cloudy that day. When we entered the mountain area, there was heavy fog and visibility was only a few dozen meters. All vehicles drove slowly and cautiously with fog lights on. The Taihang Mountain Tunnel is a weather dividing line. There was heavy fog all the way before entering the tunnel. Once out of the tunnel, the sky was clear and the sun was shining. We marveled at the magic and impermanence of nature. After arriving at the parking lot, due to time constraints, my friend arranged to take a car to visit the Tianlu only. The charter car cost 70 yuan per person. The ticket for Taihang Grand Canyon is 160 yuan (including Taohua Valley, Wangxiang Rock and Taihang Tianlu). The whole journey was along the Taihang Mountain cliff road. On one side was the mountain and on the other side was the cliff. Looking at the dangerous mountain road, it was really frightening all the way. In order to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Taihang, we could only hide this worry in our hearts and could not speak. We walked and stopped all the way, climbed high and looked far, overlooking the beautiful scenery, with mountains and gullies, and sighed at the uncanny workmanship of nature. The quaint mountain village, the unique slate houses, the crops, fruit trees, peppers, and the unknown flowers and trees make you blend in unconsciously and be pleasantly surprised. I took photos all the way and forgot all my worries. The Bingbingbei Cave Entrance is a typical attraction that you will regret for a lifetime if you don't see it, and you will regret it even more if you see it. 1. It takes nearly an hour to go back and forth, basically climbing stairs, and it is really not possible without leg strength. 2. This cave is a man-made cave, and it has no ornamental value except for being cool. 3. At the entrance, the management staff semi-forced you to rent a cotton coat under the pretext of your health, 10 yuan per time, and the price was 5 yuan. 4. The wind at the entrance of this cave is strong and cold, but it is not cold at all inside, and you don't need to wear a coat at all. If you really don't rent a coat, they will let you in. 5. The ice cubes placed inside are all man-made, and they are constantly melting, and the road is full of muddy water.

The dry moss on the rock wall of the Taihang Grand Canyon Hanging Plank Road looks like a painting. The end of the hanging plank road is the Taihang Grand Canyon Observation Deck! In the haze weather, the Grand Canyon is not clearly visible. There is garbage everywhere in the Yangtian Pond below!

The Grand Canyon is worth a visit. We drove there by ourselves. We arrived in Linzhou that night and planned to go to the Red Flag Canal first, so we stayed at the Linzhou Hotel. The Linzhou Hotel is very close to the Red Flag Canal and Taihang Mountain. We stayed there for three days, saving the trouble of changing hotels. The Red Flag Canal Scenic Area is also very good and recommended to everyone. There are not many people in the scenic area and it is very quiet. The best route is to go to the museum first and then to the scenic area. The Red Flag Canal took one day and went to Taihang Mountain the next day. It took half an hour to drive to the Taihang Mountain Visitor Center, but the visitor center is far from the scenic spot. It took more than an hour to drive. The winding mountain road is not easy to walk. We first visited the mountain scenery and then arrived at the scenic spot. We met many students who were sketching on the road. There are many farmhouse accommodations. Among them, there is an inn called a family. It is very unique, the appearance is very beautiful, and the cost is not very expensive, but it is still more expensive than that in Linzhou City. I don’t know how the accommodation is. I talked to the boss and made a reservation in advance. I left the boss’s phone number. For the convenience of friends around me to come here, the inn phone number is 0372-6887588. The ticket for Taihang Mountain Scenic Area is a package of 160 yuan, three scenic spots, valid for 48 hours. If time is not tight, you can play for two days. We spent one day to visit and felt a little tired. The three scenic spots are Wang Xiangyan, Taohua Valley, and Tianlu. Taohua Valley and Tianlu are together. I personally think Taohua Valley is the most beautiful of the three scenic spots. Wang Xiangyan is mainly mountain-based, Taohua Valley is mainly water-based, especially Jiulian Waterfall, which is magnificent. Tianlu takes a scenic sightseeing bus and visits for about two hours. If you are not afraid of heights, it is recommended to climb the skyscraper barrel at Wang Xiangyan Scenic Area. It feels very exciting. I am a 49-year-old old woman, and I have gone up. Young friends should not retreat. After climbing the skyscraper barrel, there are taxis going down the mountain at the highest scenic spot. It costs 20 to 30 yuan per person, and you can bargain. I personally recommend taking a taxi down the mountain, because going down the mountain is more tiring than going up the mountain, and you have to save your energy to visit other attractions. I forgot some details after coming back, so I can only provide these to everyone.

By Why the Dragon Boat Festival? |

It is worth a visit. I went there in June 2005, driving 600 kilometers from Beijing, staying in Linzhou, and drove through the Grand Canyon the next day. This Grand Canyon has amazing scenery and is extremely steep, with thousands of feet of cliffs and both danger and seclusion. Although it cannot be compared with the Colorado Grand Canyon in the United States in terms of momentum, it is comparable in terms of steepness.

Tickets can only be picked up at the entrance of Taohua Valley Scenic Area after online booking. Neither Wangxiangyan nor Linzhou Visitor Center supports ticket collection. Tickets can only be picked up two hours after successful booking. Pay attention.

Departing from Beijing, I took the night train and arrived at Anyang Station at 4 am. There will be buses soliciting passengers at the entrance of Anyang Station, 24 yuan per person. There are also vans, 20 yuan per person. Both of the above are very crowded. I chose to share a taxi with others, 30 yuan per person for four people. It takes about an hour to reach Linzhou South Bus Station. From Linzhou South Bus Station, I took the newly opened Linzhou City Tourism Road. It departs from the South Bus Station at 7 am and ends at the Linzhou Visitor Center. The ticket price for the whole journey is one yuan. It drives very slowly, about an hour. After arriving, you have to transfer to the scenic area's shuttle bus to the entrance of Taohua Valley Scenic Spot. The shuttle bus ticket is 10 yuan round trip. It takes 20 minutes one way. This shuttle ticket is independent of the ticket. I heard that there is another way to take the red minibus directly from Linzhou to Shibanyan Township. I also saw it at the bus station. It should be more convenient, but I haven't tried it. For both of the above buses, you can just walk directly to the bus station to take the bus.

The ticket includes three attractions: Taohua Valley, Wangxiang Rock, and Taihang Sky Road. Taohua Valley is a canyon, and you can see water along the way, which feels average. Wangxiang Rock is mainly for mountaineering, and the cliff plank road and the skyscraper ladder are really exciting. A girl came down crying before she climbed halfway. It can be seen that her boyfriend next to her wanted to climb, but they had to come down together. This is when the advantages of being a single dog are reflected (you deserve to be single). Taihang Sky Road can overlook the undulating mountains nearby, and the scenery is awesome.

Peach Blossom Valley + Taihang Sky Road are combined in one day. When I went to Peach Blossom Valley, there were few people. It took about two hours to complete the whole journey. At the end of Peach Blossom Valley is the boarding point for the Taihang Sky Road tour bus. The tour bus will make a short stop at the sightseeing spots on the way. When I went there, there were three stops, each for about 10 minutes. The driver was quite interesting and I had a lot of fun chatting with him all the way. The driver was also very exciting, and it felt like a roller coaster 😝. I didn't stop for sightseeing on the return trip, but drove directly to the entrance of the Peach Blossom Valley scenic spot. It took about two hours to go there and back. It was afternoon after these two, so I decided to find a place to rest.

We chose Shibanyan Town for accommodation. There are many farmhouses. I learned from chatting with the sightseeing bus driver that the standard room is about fifty yuan, and the price is negotiable. It was really good after trying it. Thanks to the driver. For meals, there are home-cooked dishes, meat is twenty or thirty yuan, and vegetarian is generally more than ten yuan. I ordered Mushu pork, and on the recommendation of the boss lady, I ordered mixed vermicelli. Mixed vermicelli with mustard? EXM? Farmhouses are so up-to-date? I also ordered a bottle of beer, a total of fifty yuan.

The streets in Shibanyan Township are quite clean, I like it. Many art students come here to sketch, and it is quite interesting at night. There are bars, barbecues, and karaoke. The karaoke sound in the small shop by Cangxi is really loud. Once you open your voice, everyone in the village can hear it. You can sing for everyone in the village. I envy you~

It takes about 20 minutes to walk from Shibanyan Township to Taohua Valley and Wangxiangyan. It takes four hours to visit Wangxiangyan. It is recommended to visit for two days in total.

Taihang Grand Canyon Scenic Area is located in Linzhou City, at the junction of Henan Province and Shanxi Province. It is the most accessible national canyon landscape. The canyon is 50km long from north to south, with the highest peak at 1,739m above sea level, and a relative height difference of more than 1,000m. The canyon stretching for hundreds of miles is majestic and upright. The scenic area has high cliffs, majestic peaks, masculine and strong exposure, interlaced terraces and walls, turbulent Cangxi River, waterfalls hanging in four directions, and peaks, mountains, terraces, walls, gorges, waterfalls, ridges, and springs in various shapes. In October 2016, it was approved as a national 5A tourist attraction.

Including Taohua Valley, Wangxiang Rock and Tianlu. Tianlu is great, and the battery car driver is worthy of being an experienced driver. When I went there, it was cloudy and a little rainy. The top of the mountain was shrouded in mist, like a fairyland. Taohua Valley goes up the mountain along the stream. Because Henan flooded a few days ago, the water level rose slightly. The plank road was built along the cliff. It was great to climb the mountain and play in the water.

The atmosphere of Taihang Grand Canyon is divided into Taohua Valley Scenic Area and Taihang Tianlu Scenic Area. The full ticket of the scenic area is 180. Taohua Valley Scenic Area is basically to see mountains, water and waterfalls, and there is nothing else. As for Taihang Tianlu, it is mainly to experience the steepness of Taihang Tianlu. Take a sightseeing bus all the way. There is a glass plank road. The tour time of Taihang Tianlu is about two hours. Take a sightseeing bus in the scenic area. There are four viewing platforms. The stay time at each viewing platform is about 20 minutes, which is still sufficient time. The vegetation is dense and the air is fresh. It is still worth a look. It is worth mentioning that there are said to be a lot of Korean tourists here, so the signs in the scenic area are marked in both Chinese and Korean. There is also a Korean cafe at the exit of the scenic area. From a distance, you can see the huge posters of Song Hye Kyo and Song Zhongji hanging there. There is a Korean-run cafe at the exit of the scenic area. It is called a cafe, but it is actually a cold drink bar. The price list of the cafe is also marked in Chinese and Korean. However, in order to show that it is opened by Koreans, there is no need to hang such a big photo of Oppa and Joe Mei on it~~ It feels like going to a movie theater... The price is still very reasonable, most drinks are 10 yuan a cup, and there is a leisure area where you can drink coffee while enjoying the scenery. This feels good too.

If you search for Taihang Grand Canyon on the Internet, you will find several results. The one in Anyang should be called Taihang Grand Canyon in Linzhou, Henan (including the three scenic spots of Taohua Valley, Wangxiangyan and Taihang Tianlu).

Tickets: 160 yuan/person, 139 yuan/person on Taobao

Reference time: 1 day

Let's talk about the Grand Canyon first. I didn't understand it clearly when I bought the ticket online. Taohua Valley and Taihang Tianlu are together, and the ticket includes transportation to the scenic spots. Wang Xiangyan is in another place, and you need to check your ticket again, and there is no shuttle bus. I didn't go to Wang Xiangyan due to time constraints, so I won't comment on it.

When you enter the scenic area, take the sightseeing bus first and get off at Taohuagou Scenic Area. You can also take it directly to the starting point of Taihang Tianlu. If you need to go to Taohuagou, it is recommended to get off here and tour along the way.

Taohuagou is small and exquisite, similar to the Hongshi Gorge in Yuntaishan, with only one road in and out. People! Looking at this team moving step by step, I remembered the scene in Hongshi Gorge a few years ago. The past is reappearing, and the helplessness of the holidays!

There are two pictures above. One is Pinghu. Because Pinghu here is not very famous, there is no option in the related places, so I put it in Taihang Grand Canyon. Friends who go there for self-driving tours can go and see it. It is very beautiful. The second one is a photo of Wangxiangyan. In fact, Wangxiangyan, Taohuagu/Bingbingbei, etc. are all part of the Taihang Grand Canyon Scenic Area, but they only charge admission tickets.

It is worth going. The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the roads are amazing. The only problem is transportation. The scenic spots are far apart. It is suitable for self-driving tours and group tours. The transportation fee is more expensive than the scenic spot tickets. Students should plan ahead.

Taihang Grand Canyon includes two scenic spots: Lotus Valley and Wangxiang Rock.

Super beautiful and exciting, highly recommended.

It is cheaper to buy a ticket from Taobao. Remember to ask for the mobile phone number you used to book the ticket, as it may be verified when you pick up the ticket.

You can visit it for two days. It is divided into two scenic spots. One is the Peach Blossom Valley Scenic Area, which can be easily visited in half a day. The canyon, waterfall, and clear pond are so beautiful. After visiting the canyon, you will take a tour bus to visit the Taihang Sky Road, which is very exciting.

Another scenic spot is Wangxiangyan, which has worse scenery than Taohua Valley. The highlight is a ladder to heaven and a tube ladder hanging on the cliff. It is very exciting. It may be scary for people who are afraid of heights, but it is definitely worth it.

The scenic area is mature, the service is in place, and most vendors don't cheat.

The Taihang Mountain Scenic Area at the junction of Henan and Shanxi is well developed and well managed. To visit the Grand Canyon, you need to take the scenic area's unified shuttle bus. Good scenic spots in the north, keep it up!

The main scenic spot of Taihang Grand Canyon is Taohua Valley Scenic Area, which is divided into two parts, one is Taohua Valley Waterfall Scenic Area, and the other is Taihang Tianlu Scenic Area. The scenic area is very large, and you need to take a transportation bus. The scenic area ticket and transportation ticket are purchased together. There are many peach trees in Taohua Valley Scenic Area, which are full of peach blossoms in spring, hence the name Taohua Valley. Taihang Tianlu is a one-day highway on Taihang Mountain, built against the mountain, winding up, shuttling above the mountain top, and below is the Wanzhang Canyon, magnificent and majestic!

Taihang Grand Canyon is located in Linzhou City, Anyang City, Henan Province. It is a 4A-level scenic spot and one of the ten most beautiful canyons in China. The Grand Canyon is 50 kilometers long from north to south. We only visited the Peach Blossom Valley Scenic Area.

The Taihang Grand Canyon is shaped like a giant basin, like a blue dragon, with red walls and awe-inspiring natural beauty. The mountains are stacked one after another, magnificent and the peaks are competing for beauty. A few kilometers west of Qingfeng Pass is Xiyagou in Shanxi. There is a road leading there, but there is no car, so you can only charter a car, which costs 20 yuan, and only then are people willing to "run" for a trip.

Against the backdrop of the blue sky, the steep cliffs of Taihang Mountain look particularly majestic and tall, but unfortunately they are covered with a thin layer of haze. A "glass plank road" has also been built here for people who are afraid of heights to challenge themselves. Although I have always been a little afraid of heights, I still walked through this section with my head held high. I don't know if this can be considered a successful challenge.

There weren't many people. Maybe it was because we went with a tour group. It was very rushed, but it was really shocking. Many teachers said it was like a canyon in the United States.

In September 2010, I went to Taihang Mountain with my school. The destination was Shibanyan Township. September is the rainy season in the north, so as soon as I entered the mountain, I could hear the sound of rushing water. The air in the mountain was very good, the waterfalls and rivers had a large amount of water, the plants in the mountain were very dense, and the coverage rate was good. The houses in the mountain were all built with special slate, which was very unique. For those who like photography and sketching, this is a good place!

Taihang Grand Canyon, the Soul-Dangling Bridge, the Cliff-hanging Ladder, the thrilling mountain road, the beautiful scenery deep in Taihang...

How can I describe Taihang Grand Canyon? It is a very beautiful place, and the scenery is not inferior to any 5A-level scenic spot.
