introduce

Pingyao Ancient County Government Office, located in the ancient city of Pingyao, was the official office of the Pingyao County Magistrate to handle cases. Many years of history. The whole yamen has a large scale, including the lobby, the second hall, the inner house, the flower hall, the Changping warehouse, the Zanhou temple, the land temple, the prison, the public house, the temple of ten kings, the Hongshan post, and the supervision hall. The main buildings of this ancient county government all have couplets, such as the couplets in the lobby: "Eat the food of the common people and wear the clothes of the common people, the common people can deceive themselves to be the common people", "If you win an official, you will not be honored if you lose an official, and if you lose an official, you will not be humiliated. The useless place depends on one official"; the couplets in the second hall "come here because of fate with the people", "Qi Cunxin is worthy of the people". The back garden of the county government office and the Guanfeng Building in the county government office are also very beautiful. There are ponds, small bridges and small pavilions in the back garden, which are very unique; the Guanfeng Building needs to be climbed inside the county government office, and you can see the east and west streets from upstairs. The ancient county government will stage the tourism performance of "The County Lord's Ascension to Judgment" at fixed points every day, and the time of the performance every day: 9:30, 11:00, 15:30 (sometimes there will be an additional performance or the performance time will be adjusted on holidays and weekends ), tourists who want to watch the performance are better to seize the seat opposite the county grandfather and in front of the steps in advance. This is a good place to watch the performance.

Pingyao was a gathering place for Shanxi merchants in the Ming and Qing dynasties. At that time, being an official did not earn as much as the guys in the ticket office, so the local people did not want to be an official, but preferred to be a businessman. The design of the entire yamen is layer by layer, one door after another, the lobby is for reviewing criminal cases, and the second hall is for reviewing civil cases. What is impressive is the prison. Even the prisons are divided into levels. The high-level ones are used to detain prisoners with status. There is a big kang head inside and a small window that can communicate with the outside. The other is used to lock up the death row prisoners. There is only a one-meter-high arch with a width of one person. After closing the door, you can't see your fingers. It's terrible to think about it, and that scene can appear in your mind all at once.

The mottled city walls are printed with light sadness; the carved old windows seem to still look gentle in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The ancient city of Pingyao is one of the most well-preserved ancient cities in China. Although commercialization cannot be avoided, there are still some The style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Pingyao County Government Office is one of the most important scenic spots in the ancient city of Pingyao. Pingyao County Government is located in the center of Pingyao Ancient City, and you can walk along the street of Ming and Qing Dynasties. The pass for Pingyao Ancient City is 130 yuan, half price for students, and the ticket for Pingyao Ancient City is a pass, which can be used within three days, but each scenic spot You can only go once, including Rishengchang (to understand the ups and downs of Shanxi merchants), Escort Museum (to understand the history of darts), Pingyao County Government is also one of the relatively complete county government in China, and there will be Shengtang every day It depends on whether you can catch up with the performance, I didn't catch up, I feel very bad. In fact, walking in the ancient city of Pingyao still feels very good. When there are few people, wander around all the scenic spots. If you don’t rush, you will feel very comfortable. After entering the county government office, there will be a large courtyard with the houses where the government servants lived on both sides. After passing through a Yimen gate, you will find a plaque that reads Qinmin Hall, which is the place where major cases were tried in ancient times. I didn’t see the performance of the county magistrate hearing the case that day, which is a bit regrettable. You can also sit there and take pictures in Qinmintang, and experience the feeling of being the magistrate yourself. It is also an experience. After walking through the gate of the house, we arrived at the second hall. The second hall is the place where small cases are usually tried, such as the place where petty theft cases are tried. There is an inscription by Premier Zhu Rongji on the door of the second hall. Going further back is the place where the county grandpa rests. There is a large yard, various trees, and a small pond. I think the life of the county grandpa was very beautiful back then. There is also a small garden for the county grandpa to rest.
