For a family-friendly itinerary combined with educational purposes, I recommend entering directly from the West Gate and proceeding to Zhang Fei Temple, Zhongtian Tower, and the Imperial Examination Hall. The time is limited. I joined a guided tour for both Zhang Fei Temple and the Imperial Examination Hall, and it was very rewarding.

Jinping Mountain is truly a scenic vantage point for Langzhong, a veritable fairyland. The Jialing River gently bends here, cradling Jinping Mountain across the ancient city, creating a superb location: "one side embraced by the river, three sides surrounded by mountains." Like a natural frame, it firmly holds the thousand-year-old splendor of Langzhong Ancient City, offering the best vantage point to overlook this earthly paradise. Standing atop the mountain, a gentle breeze whispers in your ear, and breathtaking scenery unfolds before your eyes: layers upon layers of green-tiled roofs, like frozen waves surging towards the sky. The ancient city's streets and alleys meander like veins, concealing the majesty of the Zhang Fei Temple and the scholarly atmosphere of the Imperial Examination Hall. The Jialing River's shimmering waters reflect the ancient city's image, shattering it in the rippling light. By day, cooking smoke mingles with the clouds, the vibrant atmosphere of the ancient city almost palpable; at dusk, lanterns light up one after another, light and shadow flowing on the river, as if time itself slows down, leaving only a sense of tranquility and bliss.

清晨,我们驱车抵达山脚下,抬头仰望,凌云峰巍峨耸立,云雾缭绕,仿佛直插云霄。山间传来阵阵鸟鸣,清脆悦耳,为这趟旅程增添了几分灵动。沿着山间小道向上攀登,空气中弥漫着泥土和青草的芬芳。山路两旁,野花盛开,五彩斑斓,蝴蝶在花丛中翩翩起舞。偶尔还能看到几只小松鼠在树梢间跳跃,活泼可爱。越往上走,山路越陡峭,但景色也越来越美。半山腰有一片竹林,竹子青翠挺拔,微风拂过,竹叶沙沙作响,仿佛在演奏一曲自然的乐章。穿过竹林,眼前豁然开朗,一片开阔的山谷映入眼帘,山谷中绿草如茵,野花点缀其间,宛如一幅美丽的画卷。经过一番努力,我们终于登上了山顶。站在山顶,极目远眺,四周群山环绕,云海翻腾,仿佛置身于仙境之中。远处的村庄若隐若现,宛如世外桃源。山顶有一座小亭,我们在亭中稍作休息,感受着山风的清凉,心中满是惬意。凌云峰的美,不仅在于它的山清水秀,更在于攀登过程中的那份坚持与收获。这次旅行让我感受到了大自然的魅力,也让我明白,只要努力,就能收获最美的风景。

The scenic area is mainly composed of the main pavilion of Tengwang Pavilion and the small gardens on the north and south sides. Climbing the tower to look far is the main project here. There are 9 floors in total. The 5th floor is the best floor for viewing and the essence of the entire Tengwang Pavilion; the "Tengwang Pavilion Preface" engraved on the copper plate on the wall of the central hall is the handwriting of Su Shi. The 6th floor is an antique stage. There will be a costume performance about every hour. It is also the highest floor for tourists to visit.

The morning in the ancient town is so quiet that it seems isolated from the world. Zhouzi Ancient Town also engages in tourism, but there are almost no customers on weekday mornings, and most shops are closed. Even if there are tourists in the peak season, the local specialties, fried dough twist and dried tofu, cannot support too many people, so the young people have fled. Almost all the people who walk slowly on the stone street and sit in front of the door to chat are elderly people. The clothes they wear are older than their grandchildren. The grooves on their foreheads are as deep as the gaps between the roof tiles. Stories and vicissitudes flow in their eyebrows. Older than them are the houses. The scattered houses still maintain the Ming and Qing style of the through-beam structure. Most of them have passed their 100th birthday. Every door panel has witnessed the joys and sorrows of several generations, and every stone step has recorded the process of the owner from babbling to staggering. The spirit cultivated by generations and the charm precipitated by thousands of years fill the streets and alleys, and tourists wander among them, as if cruising in the long river of time. Zhouzi Ancient Town is adjacent to the river on one side, and the only God of Wealth Building on the Jialing River is built on the riverside; it is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the mountain is Longjiao Mountain. On the mountain, the banyan branches planted by the Red Army during the fight against the enemy have now grown into towering trees, and the Longjiao Temple, which was burned down by the war, has also been reborn. In the afternoon, the ancient town became lively. After lunch and a good sleep, the energetic older generation turned the ancient town into a battlefield.
