The ancient city of South Tower and North Platform, with its six-story Qi Street, is world-famous.
☀️ Hongshi Gorge Ecological Park Scenic Area
🎫 30/adult
📍 The ticket-checking entrance actually leads to the Yima City Ruins Park; the adjacent ecological park, reservoir, and ski resort are probably not connected, as no one seems to go there
⌚️ It takes about an hour to wander through each hall
🛕 Zhenbeitai Great Wall Scenic Area
🎫 30/adult
📍 Located 2 kilometers northeast of Hongshi Gorge, this attraction emphasizes the 'platform' with its tall and flat structures. The stretch of the Great Wall here is not long, and it's not necessary to enter; you can just view it from the outside
⌚️ About half an hour
⛩️ Yulin Ancient City/Yulin Old Street/Six-Story Qi Street
🌃 A great place to stroll at night
🔛 Starting from the Drum Tower in the north, heading south are the Kaige Tower, Bell Tower, Xingming Tower, Wanfo Tower, and Wenchang Pavilion. Not far from the South Gate, Zhenyuan Gate, is the Lingxiao Tower. The reason I never counted six towers is that I was only considering 'towers' and overlooked the Wenchang Pavilion
