Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Temple
Yao Temple
The sanctuary commemorates the legendary sovereign Yao in a series of courses. The place remains culturally sensitive and discovers with discretion, without hindering local practices; religious schedules, outfits and photographic rules are to be checked on the spot.
Museum
Linfen Museum
The collections present archaeology of the Fen Valley and ancient cultures. The collections and remains take time to exceed a mere photographic stop; reserving a sufficient range helps to understand their regional historical context.
Place indismissible
la rivière Fen Park
Walks follow the restored river through the modern city. Distances, weather and access conditions must be checked prior to departure; water, warm clothes and hourly margins remain useful, even in summer.
