Taiyuan's Viral Tourist Attraction: 'Rainbow Road on the Cloud,' Shanxi's First Bicycle Race Track
As modern people, we might not find roads particularly strange, and we can basically see various roads when we go out, and some people even think roads are one of the most monotonous designs. If you haven't experienced some unique roads, that might be the case. Out of ten roads, nine are molded. However, today, I'm bringing you one different road, which is called 'Rainbow Road on the Cloud'. It's located in Shanxi Province and is the first provincial bicycle race track. It suddenly went viral on the internet and became a 'popular check-in spot' in Taiyuan, attracting countless tourists to visit. Does it really exist rainbow road in the world? Let's take a look together.
This road is located on the Taiyuan West Mountain, winding along the mountain, which would never have been thought of before to find that desolate valley become so scenic. I think there were many heavy industries in the past, and the environment was damaged. The climate was also very bad, and vegetation was not abundant. Excessive exploitation also led to subsidence. Therefore, it was extremely difficult to build this winding road. However, the scene finally appeared before our eyes. Now, this area has rolling hills, with trees scattered throughout, creating a very good feeling. The road is about 136 kilometers long, and after riding this road, you can also see more than 100 nearby attractions. It's like a line that connects more than 100 attractions, such as Mengshan Grand Buddha, Jinci Temple, and Tianlong Mountain, which are very spectacular! It's no wonder it can attract so many tourists to visit.
At the same time, this area also has another position as a professional bicycle race track, passing through Jinyuan District, Wanbaolin District, and Shapingba District. The second Qingyun Bicycle Competition was held here. The road along the way has different themes, and you can feel the four seasons – spring, summer, autumn, and winter – along the way. It's like seeing four seasons in one season. In order to facilitate tourists to get off the car and view the scenery, there are 20 viewing platforms along the road, and 31 service areas are waiting for your arrival!
The most eye-catching thing on this road is the seven-colored track. The continuous serpentine curves are paved with red and blue asphalt. Looking into the distance, the red looks very dazzling under the blue backdrop, which is very spectacular. In fact, this also plays an important role in the competition, to 'remind' the tired athletes during the competition, and to give them a warning. In addition, the entrance to the tourist attractions also has a red road surface, which is very intimate!
That's all for the Rainbow Road I've brought to you. It's the first professional bicycle track in the province, which is suitable for you and your friends to ride together to appreciate the beautiful scenery of Shanxi. It's really relaxing!
