[Yichuan May Day Travel Guide] A Must-Save for Students! I Just Returned from the Loess Plateau

💥Day 1: Heart-Pounding Experience at Hukou Waterfall "Standing just 20 meters from the waterfall, my phone almost became a mystery box from all the mist!" 🌊 ✅Must-do: Rush to the eastern plank road before 7 AM to capture a scene reminiscent of the "Journey to the West" opening with a telephoto lens! Don't forget to touch the millstone at "Love Stone Beach" - legend says single people can find love the same day (my bestie confirmed it works!) 💘 🍜Hidden food tip: Try the carp paomo (bread soaked in soup) at "Yellow River Family" restaurant outside the scenic area - just CNY 30 for a filling meal with complimentary sour plum soup! The owner will teach you to dip your bread in waterfall water (don't ask why, just know Yellow River water tastes better than bottled water) 💦 🌸Day 2: Pink Explosion at Fengchi Mountain "Peonies blooming across the mountains created a pink ocean - wearing my Hanfu, I looked like a flower fairy!" 🌺 ✅Student benefit: Free admission with student ID! Wear a light-colored long dress and capture silhouettes in the morning mist for amazing photos! I danced to "Love Like Fire" by the "Fengchi Morning Mist" stone monument, and an elderly man praised my dancing 👴 🎁Bonus: At the market at the foot of the mountain, CNY 10 gets you 5 jin (2.5kg) of honey crisp apples so juicy you can hear the crunch when you bite! (I stuffed two big bags into my backpack before heading home) 🍎 🏛Day 3: Time Travel to the Anti-Japanese War at Qiulin "Touching the brick walls of the air raid shelter, I suddenly understood the wartime years from our textbooks" 🏭 ✅Must-experience: Free Eighth Route Army uniform photo op! While I was posing with a prop gun, an elderly man suddenly stood up and saluted, instantly making all tourists solemn (I was moved to tears) 😭 📸Photo guide: Capture your silhouette by the window of the "Spark Library" - sunlight streaming through wooden windows onto old books creates perfect ambiance! ⚠️May Day Anti-scam Guide (learned the hard way): 1️⃣ Don't trust the unlicensed drivers at the scenic area entrance offering "CNY 50 for a ride to Mangtou Mountain"! Carpooling costs just CNY 15 per person, and you can pick wild apricots along the way (super sour but totally worth it) 😝 2️⃣ Hukou Waterfall has rainbows after 4 PM! I waited until half an hour before sunset and finally captured the "Rainbow Water Dance" spectacle - got over 100 likes on my social media! 🌈 3️⃣ Bring a photocopy of your student ID! The self-service machines at the ticket checkpoint can scan your ID card plus the photocopy and issue tickets in 10 seconds - ten times faster than waiting in line! 🚄
