Victorious Fatherland Liberation War Museum

Reviewed By bronwynrev - Toronto, Canada

Beautiful grounds, friendly guides, and an incredible interactive experience inside. Truly have never experienced a museum like this - it was huge and beautiful, and though I didn't get to go through every exhibit, I was particularly impressed by the level of detail they put into the recreation of woodland military bases and tunnels -- sound effects, life-sized dioramas, and historical items galore. The panorama upstairs is breathtaking as well. The next time I visit, I'd like to spend more time here. There's also coffee, tea, and a gift shop.

International Friendship Exhibition

Reviewed By garrickwright - Perth, Australia

To be honest, all the long reviews from experienced travellers on here are pretty accurate so I won't repeat what's already been said. However the sheer scale of this place - the art works on offer (most of this stuff should be in a museum) and the beautiful views on display from the balcony make this an absolute must see. We stayed overnight so we could also hike Mt Myohuang which I recommend, and see the Polyhon Temple nearby
