It takes 2 hours to drive from Xi'an to Tongguan, Shaanxi, where Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Henan meet. The famous pass by the Yellow River is really amazing to me😮
-Tongguan is the east gate of Guanzhong and has always been a battleground for the military. It is the second of the top ten famous passes in China and is known as the "first pass". After Du Fu visited here, he also had the verse "The father-in-law looks at the important place, narrow and narrow to accommodate a single car. Hard work and long halberd, ten thousand ancient use of a man".
🌟Here you can visit the ancient city of Tongguan, feel the historical heaviness of the old city's bricks and tiles, stand at the highest point of the ancient city, look up and look far away, and look at the shock of the Yellow River coming from the sky. You can also cross the Fenglingdu Yellow River Bridge and feel the shock of the Yellow River at close range at the Fengling Ancient Crossing. I have to mention that the sunset of the Yellow River here is really beautiful‼️ If time permits, you must wait for the sunset, it is definitely worth it!

If you are visiting the ancient city of Tongguan, if you are driving by yourself, you can drive the car all the way to the scenic spot. If you choose to walk, it is still quite tired to climb up🤣. The water slope alley in the ancient city is recommended to stroll around. The original residential buildings are well preserved and have a strong historical atmosphere. Help everyone avoid a Tongguan Roujiamo in the ancient city scenic spot, which is the one that came down from the statue of Nuwa. It is really disappointing. It is said to be fat and thin, but it is all fat and the taste is very ordinary. The overall construction of the ancient city scenic spot should not be completed yet, everyone does not need to have high expectations for the scenic spot, I personally think that the natural scenery by the Yellow River is still very good, if time permits, you can go to the Yellow River to watch the sunset, and it is also very beautiful to take pictures and check in!
