Questions & Answers on China Travel Tips

Asked by steve chin from US | Mar. 20, 2019 17:10

Hi ...visiting Datong in October for two nights.

Would you suggest getting a tour guide as opposed to DIY ?
thinking of doing the two day tour as suggested
1-Day
Shanhua Temple→Huayan Monastery→ Nine-Dragon Screen→ Yungang Grottoes
The first three points of interest are all in the downtown area - you could get around it within half a day and then take the city-bus heading for Yungang Grottoes.

day2 Wooden Pagoda→Hanging Monastery

thanks
steve

It is okay to find a tour guide and you can have a deep understanding of these attractions. The half of a day may be a little tight, but it is possible if you depart early in the morning. There is no problem of your other itinerary. Nice trip!

Answered by Nina from CANADA | Mar. 17, 2019 18:07

You can enjoy the sunset on the top of Zhaobao Mountain. The Hangzhou Bay Wetland and Yandang Mountain are good but I'm not very sure if they are the most spectacular view.
