The boy traveled back to the Ming Dynasty and became a prince! Check in at Shanxi's "Little Forbidden City"

Brothers and sisters! Today I will show you how to unlock the hidden gameplay of Datong Palace! This Ming Dynasty palace, known as the "Little Forbidden City", is enough to capture over 2,000 Moments of Friends just for its red walls and golden tiles! ✨ 📍 Must-see highlights 1️⃣ Central Axis Building Complex From Chengyun Hall to the back garden, every step is full of the royal ritual sense of the Ming Dynasty! It is recommended to wear Hanfu and walk along the central axis. A casual photo will give you the feeling of "I am a maid in the Ming Dynasty" 2️⃣ The stunning Nine Dragon Wall The most precious treasure of the Dai Palace! The blue and green glazed tiles are blingbling in the sun✨. It is recommended to arrive before 4 pm to avoid the crowds and take photos of the light and shadow. 3️⃣ Immersive performance The 19:30 show "One World, One Harmony" is a must-see! The royal guards fly over eaves and walls, and the palace maids’ group dance is so exciting! It is recommended to reserve a seat half an hour in advance and follow the actors to experience the immersive plot 📸 Photography Tips ✅ Red wall + ancient window frame: take photos that look like a palace drama ✅ Pavilion in the back garden: Wear Hanfu and sit in the pavilion to create a unique look, and you will be popular in minutes ✅ Panoramic view of the square: central axis buildings + blue sky and white clouds, telephoto shots create a cinematic feel 🚇 Transportation Guide It takes 15 minutes by taxi to Datong city. You can take bus No. 38/59 and get off at Jiulongbi Station. 💰 Ticket Guide ✅ Regular ticket: 80 yuan (group purchase includes performance) ✅ Hanfu experience: +10 yuan to wear Ming Dynasty wedding dress to visit the garden ✅ Script Killing: +10 yuan to unlock the "All Nations Come to Pay Homage" plot ⚠️ Things to note 1.
