Dawei Ancient Village in Shanxi | Thousand-year-old treasure hidden in the mountains

| A thousand-year-old treasure hidden in the mountains. 📍Located in the deep mountains and valleys of Liangjiazhai Township, Yu County, Shanxi Province, the ancient village of Dawei has a history of more than 1,500 years and is the oldest existing village in Yu County 🌟. 🌳 Origin of the village name: There are three waterfalls at the west entrance of the village, which are called "Dawei", "Erwei" and "Sanwei" from large to small. The village is close to Dawei Waterfall, hence the name. The word "汖" is pronounced "pìn" in the Kangxi Dictionary, but the locals pronounce it as "chǎng". 🏡 Architectural features: The entire village is built on the mountain, all with stone and rammed earth, stacked layer by layer, staggered, and is known as the "Little Potala Palace in the depths of Taihang Mountain." Due to the special terrain, most houses face south and have windows on the gables for light and heating. 🎑 Natural scenery: There are mountain springs and waterfalls beside the village, and the scenery is magnificent. Standing at the entrance of the village, you can see two huge mountains facing each other like a dragon and a tiger, with clear springs cascading down from the mountains, forming a unique natural landscape. 👴Humanistic atmosphere: Most of the people in the village are elderly. They stick to this ancient homeland, inherit the lifestyle and traditional culture of their ancestors, and add a strong cultural heritage to the ancient village. 📸 Take photos and check in: From the observation deck, you can overlook the entire ancient village and take pictures of the stacked house layout, which is very photogenic. You can also take photos with the "Little Potala Palace" to leave a unique travel memory. 🍜 Food experience: There are local farm delicacies, such as oat noodle kuoluoluo, Yuxian braised potatoes, etc., which have a simple and mellow taste and make people have endless aftertaste. 🚗 Transportation Guide: You can first arrive in Yu County, then take the bus to Liangjiazhai Township. After arriving, transfer to local transportation to Dawei Ancient Village. The road into the village is a dirt road, so you need to pay attention to the road conditions if you drive by yourself. 💖Dawei Ancient Village is like a thick history book, every page is filled with traces of time. If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city, you might as well come here to experience the tranquility and simplicity of the thousand-year-old village. I believe you will be deeply attracted by it💕.
