A slogan that can be seen everywhere in Pingyao Ancient City is I am waiting for you in Pingyao. I believe that anyone who has been here will not regret it. It is an ancient town with a thousand years of history. Its ancient city wall is one of the four best existing ancient walls in China. The city pool is square in shape, and the south wall is built along the Zhongdu River. The walls are made of earth, the exterior is covered with white ash, the top is covered with blue bricks, and the inner side is equipped with horse tracks and inward drainage channels. There are 6 gates and gates on the wall, and 1 turret in each corner. There are 72 enemy buildings every 50 meters, a total of 72, and there are more than 3,000 in the mouth. It is said that there are three thousand disciples according to Confucius. Designed for twelve. However, except for the city gate and the pass, the rest have been mostly ruined. Among the six gates, there is one in each of the north and south, and there are two things in the east and west. The outer gates of the east and west are built with the attached Yucheng, which is shaped like the head and tail of the tortoise, and the street layout in the city is very similar to the turtle's back. It is called "Mutland". Above the city wall, the ancient city of Pingyao, which can take a large part of the film, is basically the best location for Pingyao. At the same time, there are many bronze statues on the wall, which restored the appearance of the war. Some of the cannons are also here. It is worth mentioning that the cannons outside the city walls can also be used for visitors to experience. The sound is particularly large, but it is not a real weapon, so you can rest assured.
