The niche travel destination Yuzhou Ancient City
The ancient city of Yuxian is divided into several parts, but they are basically within the old city. Driving is extremely inconvenient as the roads are generally very narrow, and many alleys shown on navigation are just wide enough for one car to pass through. You need to seize the opportunity to drive through immediately, otherwise, you'll have to wait.
We visited the Yuhuang Pavilion, climbed the city tower, and went to the Nanan Temple Pagoda. The places are not very big, but they all require tickets. If you have plenty of time, you might want to go inside for a visit. If you're short on time, you could just pass by and check in.

Hebei Yuzhou, the first state in the west of Beijing
| Hebei Yuzhou. Hebei Zhangjiakou Yu County, known as Dai country in Yin and Shang Dynasty, was set up as Dai County in Qin Dynasty, and Yuzhou was set up in Eastern Wei Dynasty. It is one of the famous 'Sixteen States of Yan and Yun' and a famous border town in ancient history. It was known as 'the first state in the west of Beijing' in Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Yu County has been a place of cultural gathering since ancient times, with a large number of cultural relics and historic sites. Before 2019, it was the county-level administrative unit with the most 'national key cultural relics protection units'.
Another feature of Yu County is the large number of ancient castles. For the need of border defense, Yu County is known as 'Eight Hundred Villages and Castles', with castles in every village. Famous architectural scholar Luo Zhe Wen once praised the ancient castles of Yu County like this: In the east of the world, there exists a miracle of mankind, which is the Great Wall of China; at the foot of the Great Wall, there is another miracle, that is, the ancient castle of Hebei Yu County.

The age of the ancient city of Weizhou is getting stronger and stronger. If you want to live a Chinese year in the traditional sense, you must go to the northern town to write a small town, the most earthy, the most authentic, the most traditional old-fashioned scene! Yuxians cellar songs, lion dances, and Yuxians paper-cutting sugar can remind you of the taste of your hometown and recall the scenes that were only available in the New Year! Zhangjiakou is booming in the Chinese New Year Tourism Festival. During the Spring Festival, there is a Chinese New Year, and now come on.
Sara.
Zhangjiakou, the ancient city of Weizhou, the most earthy and most authentic in the north. The most traditional folk year, feeding the door knocker, watching the fire, watching the paper-cut, viewing the lanterns, eating the wax, and the taste of the year.
Walking on the street is like crossing the house. Selling candied sugar candied fruit is everywhere, as if you have returned to the childhood, the happiness and excitement you can't feel in the city.
Zhangjiakou Yuxian Tourism Festival, changing the pattern of the New Year, until the second day of February, you can go to play!
