Which rural areas in Taiyuan City are more famous?

Shanxi, a major cultural province in China, has many little-known original ecological ancient castle villages that still retain the simplicity and tranquility of the past. Let’s explore the 5 most beautiful ancient villages around Taiyuan.

1 Yuejiazhai Village At the end of Tianlu, there is a place called Tianwairenjiazhai. Yuejiazhai is known as the "Taihang Sky Village" because it faces cliffs to the east. Walking here, you can see stone walls, slate houses, stone mills, stone water tanks, etc. everywhere, forming a world of stone, comparable to the "Qiang Village". In the drizzle at dusk, the ancient village is soaked in the refreshing drizzle, with wisps of cooking smoke blowing in the wind, which is extremely beautiful. ?

2 Hauni Village

This is called an ancient village on the cliff. The Hongni Waterfall flows down and is majestic. The Hongni Gorge under the waterfall has abrupt ravines, like an unforgiving abyss. Hongni Village can be called a paradise on the neon waterfall. The houses here are all built with local materials, with slate roofs and stone walls. This is not only a major feature of the Taihang Mountains, but also a wonder in the history of human house construction. ?

3 Wanghuagou Village

Wanghuagou Village is located deep in Guanlui Mountain. The special terrain makes it almost hidden in the dense and lush forest.

As a representative of the "Hanging Village", it is built on a cliff with an altitude of more than 2,300 meters. The streets are "plank roads" supported by vertical timber and paved with logs. From a distance, it looks like a castle in the air. ?

4 Daqian Village

As the saying goes, "There are people in the depths of Taihang", perhaps you can only truly follow the earth and rock mountain road and windingly climb up to Daxian in Yu County When you go to the village, you will truly feel what it means to be deep in the mountains and what it means to live in a remote village.

This ancient and artistic small mountain village not only has the architectural charm of the Potala Palace, but also has a bit of the flavor of southern Anhui and Jiangnan. Magnificent and beautiful, it is really a beautiful scenery on the land of Sanjin. ?

5 Waidi Village

Waidi Village is named after being surrounded by tall and steep mountains. Here, you can see trees when you look up, grass when you look down, and everything is covered with lush vegetation. Due to the topography, the sky here is often clear outside the mountains and white clouds in the valleys. When the rain is about to come, the caves and mountain peaks will emit fog, and the smoke will gather between the cliffs to form long cloud belts, casting a veil over the strange mountains and beautiful waters.
