Jinci–Tianlong Mountain Scenic Area

晋祠天龙山景区

Jinci–Tianlong Mountain Scenic Area comprises Jinci’s historic architecture and gardens and the Tianlong Mountain Grottoes. Jinci’s halls, bridges, ancient trees and painted sculptures complement Tianlong Mountain’s grotto art. The two do not share an entrance; confirm routes separately. Reference photographs focus on historical exteriors at Jinci and surrounding gardens; Tianlong Mountain images still need additions.
