The ancient city of Xinzhou is really a great place to score points

Expressing my love for the ancient city of Xinzhou Climbing onto the city walls of the ancient city of Xinzhou from the North Gate, I was struck by the phrase 'What is love in this world?' Later, I went to the Xiuyong Academy's Yishan Bookstore and saw the introduction of Yuan Haowen. When I came back and organized my notes, I searched for an introduction to the ancient city of Xinzhou. It turns out that Yuan Haowen was the bridge in literature that spanned the eras of the Jin and Yuan dynasties. And 'Mo Yu Er·Yan Qiu Ci' is his representative work. In an instant, the feelings of the great Song Dynasty resisting the Jin, the Red Sleeve Fairy, the Condor Heroes, and the defense of Xiangyang flooded over me. This must be the last high point of my trip to Xinzhou. Most of the ancient city of Xinzhou is newly built But it is well-arranged The scenery is better during the day Too many people at night The fragrance of the locust flowers in May And the mulberries are already quietly growing The glazed crunchy fruit is indeed very crunchy The braised pig's trotters are so delicious I queued for half an hour without any complaints The snacks have clear pricing AED, restrooms, public toilets These are all bonus points Although the ancient cities are mostly homogenized now But the human fireworks should continue like this for thousands of miles

Wutai Mountain treasures the small city, Xinzhou ancient city travel guide

Xinzhou Ancient City A living ancient city Although it feels not ancient at all... To say that Xinzhou Ancient City is not ancient seems somewhat unfair. The Yishan Ancestral Hall from the Yuan Dynasty, the Xiurong Academy from the Qing Dynasty, Guandi Temple, Taishan Temple... these are not important. What makes me feel good about the imitation ancient buildings is Xinzhou Ancient City, the first one. This ancient city is too sincere to tourists, with free admission and parking, gathering Shanxi specialties from 13 counties of Xinzhou in the ancient city, and clearly marked prices at the main entrance. The prices are low without any tricks, and the night view is also beautiful. Really, all the 'ancient cities' in Shanxi and even China should be like this 📸Photo spots ✅Xiurong Academy Teahouse: Open the door to see the city tower ✅Xiurong Academy's mountain stairs: Good view from the South City Gate ✅Hexagonal Pavilion: Overlooking the panoramic view of the ancient city ✅'Xinzhou' red wall: Navigate to Damo Alley ✅Xiyuan: Love in front of Xiyuan... pun ✅South Gate Barbican: Nice frame composition ✅Koi fish lanterns: In various alleys 🗺️Night view route Enter from the South Gate ➡️ Xiurong Academy Lower Yard ➡️ Middle Yard ➡️ Liuyi Garden ➡️ Hexagonal Pavilion ➡️ Xiurong Academy ➡️ South City Gate Tower ➡️ North City Gate Tower (Plaque: Key to Northern Shanxi) 📌tips: The whole journey takes about three hours, with changing views at every step. It's really suitable for a leisurely stroll. The city wall can also be climbed for free, and you can even ride a bike on top. There are original residents in the ancient city, full of the atmosphere of daily life, and there are free iron flower shows on weekends. Such a sincere treasure of a small city, what more could you want... The beauty of the past, the key to Northern Shanxi I hope all ancient cities will come to 'copy homework'

Xinzhou Ancient City, Yang Ma did not deceive me

On the way to Wutai Mountain, passing by Xinzhou West Station, I came to Xinzhou Ancient City because the bus was still early. After entering the ancient city, two feelings: first, Yang Ma's recommendation is really worth a visit; second, if I have time, I want to turn more. It took about ten minutes to take a taxi from Xinzhou West Station to Xinzhou Ancient City, and the taxi fare was 17 yuan. I learned from the introduction that Xinzhou Ancient City is a newly built cultural project in the later period, but it's really nice inside, all of which are architectural styles of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and there is a church. The feeling of walking in is like going to Pingyao, a city and a big attraction. There are many small temples inside, the God of Wealth Temple, Wenchang Pavilion... old and solemn... There is a Xiurong Academy here, and there are book houses inside, all of which are very emotional... On the day I went, I also caught up with a play, and a wonderful rare drama was being performed on the old stage: Fanshi Dayangko, and the tourists below were all sitting on the stone steps to listen to the washing, and I suddenly felt back to my childhood! There are many delicacies in Xinzhou Ancient City, and unlike other places, they are all the same snacks. Here are all traditional Shanxi delicacies. Each store is handmade and can be seen. Many are non-legacy. There are also many small shops opened by craftsmen in the ancient city, such as wood carving, paper cutting, etc., which are very distinctive and worth visiting. There are also some small shops for Jin merchants to take photos, and I want to take a set next time The ancient city is actually not big, no need for transportation, you can walk, if you add photos, leave a day for this ancient city, there are also homestay hotels inside where you can stay for one night and enjoy the night view. The streets here are not only good for shopping but also very photogenic. They are beautiful even if you take them yourself. I will definitely come again next time when I have time🤗

V Cycling around the city wall: Climb the city wall, rent a bicycle, ride half a circle around the city wall, kids love it. 👉Xiurong Academy: Must check-in, more beautiful at night, the entire academy is built on the mountain, take kids to climb and look far, you can overlook the entire ancient city, and you can also see the mountain view in the distance when the weather is good. Watch performances: The performances are all free, with specific performance times and locations. I took a picture of the May Day holiday program arrangement (see the last one), and you can also buy tickets to watch 'Meet Xiurong', to feel the story here~ Stroll around the old street: The guide said that the ancient city is not big before coming, but it is actually not small, and it takes a few hours to stroll around slowly. Especially when you encounter a cultural and creative street that children like. 👉Drink hot tea and eat delicious food: The ancient city and the living area are connected together, suitable for slow travel, sit in the teahouse, the food in Xinzhou is probably a must, it is delicious and has unique features.

It is an underground parking lot. When you come out, it is the Taishan Temple Lane in the ancient city, which is very close to the popular check-in food and snacks. There were still many parking spaces yesterday evening. Parking fee: It seems to be 2 yuan per hour, we were charged 8 yuan for nearly 4 hours. ⌚️Play time: 3～7 hours 🎫Ticket: Free 💚Tips: 1, The weather in the north is unpredictable, experiencing four seasons in two days. 2 There are many homestays in the scenic area, but the roads in the ancient city are all bluestone slabs, which are not convenient for pulling luggage or pushing carts. 3 The crowd is concentrated in places like Taishan Temple Lane, where there are special snacks, and there are not many people in other places. 4 The ancient city food is basically sold out around 10 o'clock, so you need to taste it early. I heard from the cleaning aunt that the lights are turned off around 12 o'clock, eat first, and you can go to Xiurong Academy later I am a small package who loves to travel and share✌️
