Yao Mountain

Reviewed By Rose+Doris - UK

We walked up Yao mountain (it's all paved) and caught the cable car down to the bottom. The views are spectacular when you get to the top. There are Waterfalls, which I'm told and certain times of year are spectacular, though they looked pretty good to us. Also there are lots of places to stop on the way up, for a picnic or rest. Very civilised!

Spring Temple Buddha

Highest Statue In The World

Reviewed By Rachel T - Melbourne, Australia

My husband stumbled upon this on the Internet and made it his Mission to go there on our trip to China. I wasn't overly enthusiastic as it involved a 17 hour train trip to Pingdinshan and a 2 hour drive out there.
We made it out there and it was the most amazing sight ever. Nothing can prepare you for the scale and amazing sight until you get there and see it for yourself.
We were the only tourists there and just about all our shots had just us in them. Our guide managed to get us up to the platform so we could stand beside the toe to get even more if a feel for the scale of it.
After the climb to the top my calves still hurt but it was well worth the pain.
When we booked we were told that the train from Shanghai was the only option. After we got to pingdingshan we learnt that we could have flown into Xhengzhou which is a three hour car ride to the temple.
Our guide was called Jack and he was assigned to us through Intrepid and I cannot recommend him highly enough.
My recommendation is to go to this amazing temple and see it for yourself as you won't be disappointed.

Zhaoping Lake

景区位于河南省平顶山市鲁山县境内,这个地方景点众多,温泉遍布。昭平湖湖水幽深,周围绿树环绕,湖水清澈,山水相映,在北方难得一见。非常喜欢这个地方。

HangKong ZhanLanGuan

大量过时的老战机诸如歼6轰5之类封存在这里,每小时只有一趟公交车奔驰在昔日的飞机跑道上。可以看到宋美龄西安谈判时候的座机,常香玉捐的战斗机,以及二战时代的驼峰运输机。所有展品都是露天的,山洞里的机库仍然是不开放的禁区。

Haoyun Valley Scenic Resort

Reviewed By A TripAdvisor China Member

景区大门口的景色给人眼前一亮的感觉。整个景区是沿一个沟谷而建,步行往里走,景色逐渐显现。流水、奇石、草木,代表了此地的景致。一块名为好运石的石头很快展现在我们眼前,故景区因此得名。天下着蒙蒙细雨,游人不多,景区很安静,带着孩子花了不到4个小时便走个来回。景区有待进一步开发、完善,提高知名度。农家宾馆很实惠,饭菜、住宿条件等不错。
