One of the largest museums in China. This is the best place to understand the 5,000-year history of the region. The bronze ware and Buddhist statues here are world-class, providing context for the temples you will see later.

An underrated gem dedicated to Taoism. It features a "Nine-Palace Bagua" architectural layout. It houses astonishing Ming Dynasty stone carvings and offers a quiet, mystical atmosphere similar to the game's Taoist temples.

End your day here. Try local snacks like Wan Tuan (Buckwheat rolls) and Vinegar Ice Cream.

The oldest classical imperial garden in China. The Hall of the Holy Mother features Song Dynasty maidens that inspired Journey to the West character designs. The ancient cypress trees and "Flying Bridge" create a mythical vibe.

Game Location. The Hall of Ten Thousand Buddhas is a rare wooden structure from the Five Dynasties era (over 1,000 years old). It creates a solemn, ancient atmosphere perfect for the game's aesthetic.

A Must-Visit for Game Fans. Known as the "Oriental Art Gallery of Painted Sculptures." The Weituo Guardian statue here is famous for its fierce, lifelike gaze—a direct inspiration for the intense character designs in the game ("Golden gaze, angry eyes").

THE Game Highlight. This is the prototype for Yellow Brow's Temple in Chapter 3. Inside the humble 170-square-meter Hall of Great Heroes, there are over 1,900 suspended sculptures. It is a "labyrinth of gods" that looks exactly like the dizzying, golden scenes in the game. It perfectly illustrates the line: "Immortals arranged like hemp."

Home to the Feihong Pagoda, the tallest multi-colored glazed pagoda in the world. This location was also used in the 1986 TV adaptation of Journey to the West.

The largest yellow waterfall in the world. The roaring water captures the wild, untamed spirit of the Chinese landscape often depicted in wuxia games.

Game Scene Prototype. The massive stone walls and giant Buddhas here inspired the battle arena of the Tiger Vanguard in Chapter 2. Standing under the 13-meter tall Buddha in Cave 20 makes you feel as small as an ant—just like the Destined One.

Built into a sheer cliff face 1,500 years ago, supported by thin wooden poles. It defies gravity. This structure inspired the dizzying vertical level design in Chapter 3.

The prototype for the "Pagoda Realm" (Floating Pagoda) battle. Built in 1056, it is the oldest and tallest all-wooden pagoda in the world. It stands 67 meters tall without a single nail.
