I was stunned for a moment when I saw this news.
Is the scenic spot in Henan free of charge for Shanxi people?
If you look carefully, you are not mistaken. It is undoubtedly Baoquan. It was a place that was rated as 5A not long ago. By March 2026, a free policy will be implemented for people in Shanxi.
It's not completely free. What it does waive is the ticket fee of more than 100 yuan. You need to take the ropeway, or take the ropeway with a bus. However, even so, it is nearly half cheaper than the original price.
Suddenly, I remembered the wave of mutual exemption between the "four provinces" last year.
Shandong has exempted Shanxi, Shanxi has exempted Henan, and Henan has exempted Hebei... This situation is just like the game of taking turns that I played when I was a child. If you bring spicy sticks, I will give you ice cream.
Is it possible that the actions taken by Baoquan this time are a manifestation of the continuation of this wave of mutual favor and favor? Or is it just a simple and pure spring special benefit that happens to coincide with Shanxi's turn?
Why are they from Shanxi?
Many people have made inquiries online, and the official statement is that the three provinces of "Shandong, Shanxi, and Hebei" are Shandong, Shanxi, and Hebei.
But my intuition tells me that it may be because of the Taihang Mountains.
Baoquan is located in the Taihang Mountains, in Huixian County, Xinxiang. On the other side of the Taihang Mountains is Shanxi. The distance is very close from the geographical point of view, and the dialects also have some similarities.
Over that mountain is home.
This feeling is really subtle. This side of the mountain is located in the cliff Danya and Youlong Bay in Henan, and the other side of the mountain is located in Shanxi's loess people and the land of coal and iron. A mountain range can never cut off the closeness between the two places.
The "Xiao Jiujiu" behind the free tickets
Don't rush to be impressed, the scenic spot is not a charity.
When is March? It’s the off-season for tourism, it’s the time when the spring warmth has not yet fully bloomed, it’s the time when students have just started school, and it’s when migrant workers have just stabilized.
Free admission at this time is actually a very clever "bait".
Take the cableway fee of 130 yuan and replace it with a two-day trip, a meal, a night's stay, and maybe a bungee jumping experience. No matter how you calculate it, it is better than idling.
Besides, it was just rated 5A, so it needs popularity.
I've been there, it's really like a painting
I was checking information before and saw someone posting photos of Baoquan.
The green appearance of that section of water does not conform to people's conventional understanding of northern waters. Instead, it is like the color formed by melting emerald and flowing in the canyon. Some people call it the "Little Jiuzhaigou of the Central Plains", but in my opinion, it is a bit more precipitous than Jiuzhaigou.
Especially that "Ya Tianxia".
Take the world's largest single cable car up and see the vast red rocks beneath your feet. Those who were afraid of heights went weak in the legs, while those who were not afraid of heights screamed.
There is also a place called Xiangyun Observation Deck, which is made of glass and is in a suspended state. When standing on it, once the wind blows, you will feel like a bird.
Some suggestions for Shanxi Lao Xi'er
If you really plan to go, listen to me:
This discount is designed for a two-day tour. Don’t choose a day trip, as that would be a big loss. On the first day, go to the Grand Canyon to see the water and waterfalls there, and on the second day, go to Yatianxia to find that excitement.
The project called Cliff requires you to act according to your own abilities. People 50 and older are not allowed to ride on the facility, called the Cliff Swing. It's not that there is discrimination, but that we really can't bear the centrifugal force. I have personally witnessed a strong man with a height of 1.8 meters and his legs became weak after coming down.
Bring a thick coat . The temperature in the mountains is low, especially on the cliffs, and the wind is strong. It’s March, don’t freeze.
The last thing I want to say
This kind of free ticket across provinces is actually quite warm.
In these calculated years, there are people who are willing to open the door to you and say, "Come on, there is no fee." This is a kind of kindness after all.
Even if I just want to prompt you to consume, what can I do? You went to enjoy the scenery, and he gained popularity, and both parties owe each other nothing.
Friends from Shanxi, if you are free in March, go there.
Crossing the Taihang Mountains, look at the people on the other side of the mountain and the water on the other side of the mountain.
Maybe on a certain observation deck, you will also suddenly realize: Hey, we are actually quite close.
In Baoquan in March, the mountain is still the same mountain and the water is still the same water, but it is free for you.
Remember, bring your ID.
