Travelogue of Pingyao Ancient City

Pingyao Ancient City, located in Shanxi Province, is one of China's renowned historical and cultural cities. Here, you can immerse yourself in a rich historical atmosphere and unique local customs. The ancient city preserves numerous buildings from the Ming and Qing dynasties, each exuding its own distinctive charm. During my visit to Pingyao, I chose a refined and comfortable guesthouse as my accommodation. The Yijie Holiday Chain Hotel (Pingyao Mingdeju Branch) is situated within the scenic area of the ancient city, offering a beautiful surrounding environment and convenient transportation. Upon entering the guesthouse, I was captivated by its warm and elegant decor. The interior of the rooms is filled with traditional style while equipped with modern facilities, providing a comfortable stay infused with a strong historical ambiance. In the morning, upon the recommendation of the guesthouse owner, I enjoyed a local specialty breakfast. The variety of traditional delicacies was dazzling, with rich and diverse flavors. The most unforgettable dishes were the famous Pingyao beef dumplings and tofu pudding. These delicacies not only tasted delicious but also showcased Pingyao's local culture and culinary traditions. During the day, I explored the famous attractions of Pingyao Ancient City, such as the city walls, ancient streets, and temples. Strolling through the old streets felt like traveling back in time. Each building has a long historical background and unique story. In one of the ancient tea houses, I savored local specialty teas and conversed with the residents. As night fell, I returned to the guesthouse to rest. Quietly savoring the historical and cultural atmosphere of the city within the guesthouse, I felt as if I had become an integral part of this city. Overall, experiencing guesthouse life in Pingyao Ancient City was an unforgettable and fulfilling journey. Whether it was the food, attractions, or cultural ambiance, everything left a deep impression. If you are interested in history and culture and want to embark on an extraordinary trip, visiting Pingyao and staying at a cozy guesthouse like the Yijie Holiday Chain Hotel (Pingyao Mingdeju Branch) would be an excellent choice.
