Wu'an City has meticulously developed the East Taihang Hundred-Mile Gallery, a 116-kilometer (72-mile) scenic tourism route. Along the serpentine road, every turn unfolds a new vista, and each lookout point offers a breathtaking view. Travelers can experience the dramatic changes in elevation of over 1,000 meters, journey through winding paths that cut through pristine secondary forests, and behold the panoramic landscape of the eastern Taihang Mountains spanning 500 square kilometers.

Capitalizing on the unique appeal of Yecheng culture, Linzhang County featured two major attractions: the "Yecheng Cultural Experience" and "Yecheng Nighttime Performances." These offerings allowed visitors to enjoy a diverse mix of live theatrical displays, light shows, and cultural creative districts, feeling the enduring charm and new vitality of Yecheng culture where the past meets the present.
