Shanxi, Datong

Northern Wei/Liao Jin period ancient architecture. When you quietly observe, you can understand the so-called 'a thousand years at a glance' and why it is said that even the ruins and ashes after decay and weathering have a soul. It's no wonder they say 'to see the cultural relics on the ground, go to Shanxi.' It's very impressive! Photos just can't capture the feeling of the real thing. If you have the chance, you must see it with your own eyes. I strongly suggest traveling off-peak. Otherwise, the crowds can make you very irritable and the experience will be less enjoyable.
