People say that Shanxi has good scenery and simple handwritten newspapers.

Some people say that Shanxi has good scenery. The handwritten newspaper is very simple: "Some people say that Shanxi has good scenery, fertile land, beautiful water and delicious food." During the National Day holiday, we flew from Bincheng Dalian to Northwest Plateau by charter flight of tour group. After just one hour's flight, the passenger plane landed slowly at Taiyuan Airport. In a blink of an eye, we came to Shanxi Province, where there is Taihang in the east and Lvliang in the west. It is the first time that we set foot on this strange land, and as we travel, we gradually get to know it.

Shanxi is located in the middle reaches of the Yellow River, on the eastern edge of the Loess Plateau, and it is named because it is located in the west of Taihang Mountain. It is bordered by a towering barrier of thousands of miles in the east, Lvliang, a meandering and turbulent natural graben of the Yellow River in the west, the vast desert beyond the Great Wall of Inner Mongolia in the north and the fertile soil of Yuan Ye on both sides of Fenhe River in the south. Sandwiched between the Yellow River Canyon and Taihang Mountain, this side is a fertile soil in the shape of mulberry leaves. Magnificent mountains and rivers, unlimited scenery and outstanding people. One side of water and soil raises one side of people, and the winding Yellow River water and ancient yellow land have nurtured profound ancient culture, architectural culture, commercial culture, decorative culture, folk culture, food culture and Buddhist culture in Shanxi. Shanxi's cultural heritage is so profound that it is unthinkable not to travel. No wonder some people joked that they stepped on culture as soon as they landed in Shanxi. This joke is not an exaggeration. Only when we travel here do we know that this is true. From north to south, Shanxi is connected by splendid cultures-the Buddhist culture of Wutai Mountain Buddhist Temple in northern Shaanxi, the folk culture of Shanxi Merchants Courtyard in Jinzhong, and the Huaihuazu culture of Hongdong in southern Shanxi.
