There is a light show at the Yingxun Gate at the south gate of Pingyao Ancient City—it’s wrong again. I deliberately chose to come on Saturdays and Sundays that are not free, just to go to the most expensive attractions that I want to visit on weekdays. Unexpected harvest, the light show is only available at 20:00-20:20 on Friday and Saturday nights.

I have a date with Autumn Colors——everywhere I go, I meet the brilliant autumn colors first, so lucky! Yingxun Park outside the South Gate (Yingxun Gate) of Pingyao Ancient City is a large park of trees. The ordinary park will be colorfully decorated in late autumn.

Yingxun Gate is the most important gate in the ancient city of Pingyao. It can be said to be the location of the main gate! The scenery here is the best, and you can see a very beautiful scenery from afar, but now there is a road repair at the door, it seems that many places cannot be seen completely. It is estimated that during the Spring Festival, it should be very lively here.
