The ancient city of Pingyao is located in the central part of Shaanxi Province in northern China. It was built during the period of King Xuan of the Western Zhou Dynasty (827-782 BC) and was originally named Ancient Pottery. In the early Ming Dynasty, the city wall was built to resist foreign invasion. In the third year of Hongwu (AD 1370), the old wall was renovated and expanded and completely covered with bricks. Several generations later, there were ten fixes. Today I would like to share with you a self-guided tour of Pingyao Ancient City.

The ancient city wall.

Pingyao is a bit lonely in the cold winter, and the air is filled with a flavor of Shanxi characteristics. You could say it's contamination because the taste comes from cola. From another perspective, it is only in the heating season and has been with people for many, many years. Change will not happen overnight. In fact, there is no so-called best time to wander, it all depends on your own mentality and vision. The opening of high-speed rail has shortened the distance between Pingyao and Beijing. Even on weekends, no problem. There are enough trains for you to choose from. It is very close to the ancient city high-speed rail station. You can take a taxi or ask your hotel to pick you up. Pingyao is an ancient northern city that still maintains the rules of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and its integrity is shocking. Today, from the houses, residences, and streets, it is not difficult to see how prosperous this place once was. After all, life still comes first. Many locals choose to leave the ancient city and move to new cities outside. The new home is more livable. To some extent, the migration of residents also protected the ancient city. In addition to numerous ticket banks and escort agencies, the ancient city wall is also a good attraction. Walk around the city and watch the sunset.

Shuanglin Temple.

Shuanglin Temple is located southwest of Pingyao Ancient City, less than 7 kilometers away. It takes less than half an hour to take bus No. 108 from the north gate of the ancient city. It costs only 1 yuan, which is very convenient for everyone. The 40 yuan ticket to the two temples is free for senior citizens. The No. 18 bus has no stop sign at Gucheng Beimen Station, so it waits diagonally opposite the California Beef Noodle Shop. Shuanglin Temple has a waiting platform and seats.

The third entrance to Shuanglin Temple. As soon as you enter the door, you will see the Tianwang Hall, and in the middle of the backyard is the Mahavira Hall. On both sides are the Thousand Buddha Hall, Arhat Hall, Bodhisattva Hall, etc. There are countless

exquisite ancient buildings, especially the wood carvings, stone carvings, and brick carvings inside, which are all treasures that can be appreciated directly. Each of the six gardens has its own merits and there are many things worth seeing. It's best to avoid holidays and weekends so you can watch the game quietly, otherwise you can only watch the crowds! The Nine Dragon Wall, the Nine Dragon Palace Lantern and the Rhinoceros Moonglass are some of the treasures inside. Remember to take a look. I love those delicate wooden lattice windows. Unfortunately I can't now I can't go upstairs to admire it. There is a large parking lot at the entrance of the scenic spot and a commodity street at the exit. Remember not to buy small items here.

There are Luohan Hall, Yama Hall and other halls in the backyard.

The temple is lined with trees with fluffy green leaves. The locust tree in the yard is shaped like an umbrella, and its branches are intertwined like a net, which is quite antique.
