An unforgettable three-day tour of Handan

First, I shared my impressions of Handan, then I recorded and reviewed the itinerary of the trip. It's another underestimated and worthy ancient capital to visit: 1. Handan Museum (free), very much worth seeing, half a day is recommended. I didn't have enough time and only spent a little over two hours there. They start clearing out at 16:50, and I had a quick look at two halls. 'Gandan Style', which tells the history of Handan, is the focus in three halls. As the site of the Cizhou Kiln, the special exhibition is very impressive. Cizhou Kiln's works are not just simple black designs on a white background; the colors are quite rich. 2. Visit Congtai Park, climb the Wuling Congtai, and see the Qixian Temple. 3. Nanshan and Beishan Xiangtangshan Grottoes. (60 yuan, it's recommended to buy the Handan One Card Pass, which is universal). Follow the Xiangtangshan tourism public account to book a direct bus to the scenic area for 39.9 yuan. It departs from Handan East Station at 8:00, passes through Handan Grand Theatre, New Century..., and takes about an hour and a half to reach Beishan Xiangtangshan Grottoes. Regardless of the number of people, the scenic area can arrange transportation. We were three people and took a small car. First, visit the Digital Museum (10 yuan), worth seeing, about the history and transmission, takes about half an hour. Then see the Chang Le Temple ruins and Song Dynasty pagoda. If you don't take the tour bus, start climbing the mountain. All steps, still bearable. View the Great Buddha and the grottoes. Around 2:00 PM, head to Nanshan Xiangtang. The journey takes about 15 minutes. Tour Nanshan Xiangtang for about 1 hour, and see the most beautiful Feitian. 4. Guangfu Ancient City, points of interest: (1) Guangfu Government Office, well-preserved, with a large courtyard. After all, it's the title of a prefecture-level city, a third-rank official. The names 'Daming Prefecture' and 'Guangping Prefecture' were known throughout the country. The residence is comparable to the princely mansions in Beijing. (2) Wu Family Courtyard, the residence of a second-rank official, with many antiques and old objects to see. (3) City Wall. You can stroll around at will. (4) Hongji Bridge. Take a quick ride, take photos, and keep a memory. (5) Ganlu Temple, just take a glance when passing by. 5. Pass by Xuebu Bridge and Huiche Alley~
