Shanxi Province, Huashan Mountain, cities Luoyang and Handan.
I would like to fully devote my third trip to China to a fascinating Shanxi province. But realizing that China has a lot of other places I would like to visit, I decided to visit the best existing in the central part of Shanxi province and climb Huashan mountain (Shaanxi province), to have a look at Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang (Henan province), and then walk around the Guangfu Ancient Town, near Handan (Hebei province).I invite you to have a look at the photos from this trip. Please also pay attention to my two previous reports from China of 2008 and 2011.
