▫️ Palace on the mountaintop (overlooking the entire Xiangquan Valley)

▫️ Winter Palace secret passage (experience the thrill of cliff climbing)

▫️ Mummy cave (not for the faint-hearted!)

💡 Travel tips:

⚠️ Altitude 3800 meters, climb the steps slowly!

☀️ Sunscreen! Sunscreen! The earth forest is completely exposed

🎫 Ticket 65 RMB + sightseeing bus 20 RMB

📳 Signal is very weak at the top, bring some small change

🎵 BGM recommendation: "Exploring Mars" (sci-fi vibe) / "Myth" instrumental

On this magical land, the earth forest and historical ruins blend perfectly. Standing here, you can almost feel the glory and vicissitudes of a thousand years ago. It’s recommended to plan your time well and save the most stunning light moments for the main ruins area~
