wish to be an idler
don't care about world affairs
don't worry
listen quietly
wind from thousands of years ago
Whispers whispered through the streets
take a closer look
rubbed by thousands of years
One brick and one tile, one scene and one thing
It's rare to have a holiday recently, so of course you have to play freely. I usually travel around in the bustling city, bustling and bustling. When it comes to holidays, I just want to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city, find a quiet and leisurely place to stop and go, relax, and leave a little space for life.
So, I came to the ancient city of Pingyao, which enjoys "one of the four most well-preserved ancient cities".
The ancient city of Pingyao is a famous cultural city with a history of more than 2,700 years. Together with Langzhong in Sichuan, Lijiang in Yunnan, and Shexian in Anhui, which are also the second batch of national historical and cultural cities, it is also known as "the four best-preserved ancient cities" and is currently the only one in my country. An ancient county town that successfully applied for the world cultural heritage with the entire ancient city. However, the protection of the historical features of the ancient city by relevant departments has made the atmosphere in the ancient city less commercialized.
In this place, we can not only see the relatively well-preserved traditional life structure, as well as the ancient buildings of Ming and Qing Dynasties everywhere, but also experience the unique comfort and simplicity of the ancient city of Pingyao.
Walking in it, both sides are full of historical and cultural heritage and antique bricks and tiles. At night, people have a feeling of traveling through the millennium.
Yuchengyuan Inn|A model of ancient architecture in Ming and Qing Dynasties
Yuchengyuan Inn is one of the three time-honored brands in the ancient city. The building is more like visiting scenic spots. It is the most complete courtyard with ancient buildings in the ancient city. The whole building gives people the impression that the courtyard is deep, quiet and deep , very has the feeling of traveling through the millennium.
In the courtyard, there are traces of time everywhere, and the rusty door knocker is quietly waiting for someone to knock~
Yuchengyuan has a total of 23 houses, and each style has its own unique characteristics. The feeling of time travel is also very strong, and you can check in and take pictures for free. This is probably the biggest benefit for everyone who likes Hanfu~
Ancient County Yamen 丨 Solemnity and relaxation coexist, thick and elegant
Pingyao ancient county government is one of the most well-preserved ancient county government in China, and it is also the largest existing county government in the country. The entire building complex of the county government office is orderly, patchwork, and reasonable in structure. It is an organic whole. It is inscribed: Pingyao County Government "the most ancient government office"
In front of the ancient county government hall in the ancient city of Pingyao, tourists will see such performances every day, thinking that the "county magistrate" speaks the ups and downs of the northern accent to adjudicate cases, and modern hot words such as "harmonious society" and "shuanggui" are constantly repeated. "Traveling" to the folks, the onlookers were aroused to burst into laughter. The capable and wise case-solving skills, and the meticulous reasoning of the cocoon-like, are admirable. Although such scenes change from time to time, honesty, integrity, punishment of evil and promotion of good are the constant themes of every performance. The look and feel is really relaxed and amazing!
Pingyao Ancient City Wall丨The Epitome of Times and Culture
It is suitable for getting up in the morning to check in and take pictures, walking in the ancient city with more than 200 years of history and culture, and feeling the profound historical heritage. Standing on it, you can see the fireworks of every household
When I looked at it from the outside, I already felt its firmness and winding. Under the baptism of years, some damages can still stand upright here to guard the entire ancient city. It is very admirable. It is the historical imprint of the ancient city of Pingyao. One of the most obvious buildings. When you climb the city wall to feel it step by step, you will definitely realize that it is not easy to be mottled. The 6000-meter city wall, countless pieces of blue city bricks with a history of one hundred years, and the wall with some cracks have not affected it at all. The charm of Pingyao is still there, it will always be there, witnessing every ebb and flow of the ancient city of Pingyao, and it protects this thousand-year-old city full of ancient charm. Love it, remember it, walk into it.

Rishengchang Bank | Traveling through the millennium

Avoid the noisy streets and take a walk in a quiet alley. After exiting the county office, turn west and then turn into Shaxiang to the north. There are many green brick courtyards on both sides of this alley, and many old courtyards have fine brick and wood carvings in front of the door. Then turn into Xiguojia Lane, turn back to West Street, and you will come to the former site of Rishengchang Bank. This is the entrance to the China Bank Bank Museum, and the exit is in Weitai Houyuan.
