Shanxi has an "embarrassing" scenic spot with a long history and culture, Road 5A, but few tourists.
The province of Shanxi is home to many scenic spots related to history and culture. In combination with historical development, it can be called wide and deep, so it is loved by tourists from all over country. When you talk about Shanxi, what do you think about? My first reaction is Shanxi mature vinegar and there is nothing better than that.
But when it comes to traveling in Shanxi, there are many famous historical scenic spots, not only rich and unique in their characteristics, but also having a taste of their style and features from literature and history books since childhood and longing for them.

Speaking of scenic spots in Shanxi that we are all familiar with, today I will introduce you to a "niche" scenic spot. It is called "niche" for some other reasons that will be analyzed later, but scenic spot itself was upgraded to 5A scenic spot in first two years and was called Yunqiu Mountain Scenic Spot.
I assume you are relatively unfamiliar. Indeed, although status of tourism resources is very high, it is relatively unfamiliar to tourists and even locals, so Yunqiu Mountain Scenic Spot is an "awkward" scenic spot. The specific reasons will be explained later, but now I will show you "true view" of scenic spot.

Yunqiu Mountain Scenic Area is located in Luliang Mountain area. Its main scenic feature is scenery of mountain peaks. It is unique for geological and other reasons.
This scenic spot has not only natural scenery, but also a strong cultural heritage, making 5A Scenic Spot worthy of name.

The most famous of them is Ice Cave. In summer, temperature is lower than in urban area due to high mountains, and presence of frozen groups makes landscape of Mount Yunqiu more attractive. even more interesting. This is a great place to hide from heat.
Here you experience not only purity of nature, but also its supernatural craftsmanship that makes tourists sigh.

There is a karst form here in half of loess, so it forms a strange mountain top. The ancients said that mountains are not mountains, and mountains have such a meaning here. The mountains are undulating, and strangely shaped peaks, when you rise high and look into distance, it seems that peaks below compete with each other.
The majesty of mountain top is admired by tourists, and below mountain there is a spectacular ice ridge. It is known that scale of frozen ridge in this area is also one of highest in world. Such a sight makes you linger even more in cave group in middle of summer. If you want to see real face, it's better to come every summer, only then you can experience real "two skies of ice and fire".

In autumn, temperature in north gradually drops, and at this time red leaves appear. Say goodbye to spectacular scenery of ice packs in summer, and you can also gather in groups to watch red leaves fall. Seeing "Thousands of mountains everywhere are red and forests are colored" is nothing but another kind of beauty and experience.
In addition to supernatural craftsmanship of nature, ancients also left exquisite works of art for this place. Mount Yunqiu has been a collection of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism since ancient times. It is a place where three religions are united. Therefore, there are Confucian traditional academies in scenic area, as well as Buddhist temples and some Taoist temples.

These material cultures have formed a large number of ancient architectural complexes in Yunqiu Mountains, which are patchwork and typical in style. Perhaps because it is built of stone, well preserved and completely restores ancient architectural pattern, has typical features of northern ancient architecture, which makes tourists admire depth of wisdom and great abilities of ancients. Friends who love old architecture hope to come here to see and appreciate.
Why is such a level 5A scenic spot that combines beauty of nature and humanity a bit "embarrassing"? Picturesque places with a long history and rich meaning are visited by few tourists, what is reason?

In fact, this is not case. The construction and development of tourist areas cannot rely only on value of their own resources, but also needs reasonable planning, humane management and development. Ultimately, tourism develops with "people" at center.
The development of tourism industry requires a comprehensive and comprehensive consideration of various elements: traffic, market, population flow, economic situation, price, etc.. It even requires timely publicity and additional details such as receiving feedback. Some netizens once pointed out that issues such as tickets need to be adjusted and measured in a timely manner.

The internal browsing project also needs some innovation. You can't just collect tourist tickets and let them through in a "sloppy" and old-fashioned way. You want tourists to feel that tickets are "Great value for money" after end of "return at end of day".
Keep a firm grip on market and constantly stimulate demand of tourists to constantly expand traffic flow and increase popularity of scenic spot accordingly. Such a two-way mutual benefit will only improve development of scenic spots. On contrary, without innovation, imperfection and no advertising, they start blindly chasing high profits. As time passes, movement will develop in a negative direction, and as a result, a so-called “awkward” situation has developed.
