Shanxi Datong ‖ A niche scenic spot with super high cost performance!

I rarely use "amazing" to describe a city until I went to Datong. It is said that "Shanxi has the best ground cultural relics", and Datong, as a historical and cultural city and the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, has left countless historical and cultural treasures for future generations. Not only is there the Yungang Grottoes, one of the three major grottoes, but also ancient temples such as Huayan Temple and Shanhuasi Temple. The Hanging Temple in Hunyuan County is even more unique, and the great poet Li Bai also called it "spectacular". 🍲 Datong cuisine, unique features Datong's cuisine is also unique. The mutton steamed buns have thin skin and large fillings, and the meat is tender and juicy. They are a must-try food. In addition, Datong's copper pot mutton hotpot is also famous. Because Datong is close to the Inner Mongolian grasslands, the beef and mutton here are delicious and fragrant. It is said that many people from Beijing will come to Datong to taste the local mutton hotpot. 🏰 Recommended historical and cultural attractions Yungang Grottoes: World Cultural Heritage, a treasure house of Buddhist art from the Northern Wei Dynasty.
