_We***34This is a combined ticket, and you definitely can't see everything in one day; you'll need at least two days. The attractions are quite far apart, and if you don't visit these sites, the old town is basically just a commercial area. There's not much to see there. Try to avoid eating inside the old town. But the problem is, there don't seem to be many good restaurants outside either.

xiaowangcnjpA huge park was built specifically for this show, like a large movie studio. The idea was good, and the environment was nice, but the content felt a bit monotonous. In short, it's about watching the bodyguards take a bath, then watching the bride take a bath, the bride having a beauty pageant, and finally the bodyguards' souls returning home.

Anonymous userThe Wang Family Compound is an outstanding example of Qing Dynasty residential architecture in China. Located in Jingsheng Town, Lingshi County, Jinzhong City, Shanxi Province, it was built by the Jingsheng Wang family, descendants of the Taiyuan Wang clan, over a period of approximately 300 years, from the Kangxi to the Jiaqing reigns. It is hailed as "China's First Residence of Folk Architecture," "China's Folk Palace," and "Shanxi's Forbidden City." Its grand scale covers an area of 250,000 square meters, encompassing five alleys, five forts, and five ancestral halls. Currently, it contains 231 courtyards and 2,078 rooms. The open area centers on the three major architectural complexes of Gaojiaya (Phoenix), Hongmenbao (Dragon), and Chongningbao (Tiger), showcasing the traditional "front hall, rear chamber" layout and the overall "王" (Wang) shaped design.
4.7/5_We***34It's a bit of a journey from the hotel to Qiao Family Compound. If you're in Pingyao Ancient City, it's easy to get a ride there. But if you're on a group tour, it's not very comfortable, as the compound is quite large.

M51***36Aside from the crowds, there are no other problems. It has a classic and antique feel, and the shops inside are very bustling, with everything you need for eating, drinking, and entertainment. Some local specialties are worth buying. The overall planning of the scenic area is also good, with both a sense of traditional history and a modern atmosphere. It's worth a visit.

洪虹We started our visit from the Lower Temple, heading straight to the Water God Temple to admire the Yuan Dynasty murals. The Mingyingwang Hall of the Water God Temple was built in the sixth year of the Yuan Dynasty's Yanyou era (1319). The nearly 200 square meters of Yuan Dynasty murals on the four walls of the hall are a unique example in ancient China of murals that do not depict Buddhist or Taoist themes. These paintings, created over 700 years ago, are meticulously arranged, vividly depicted, and richly colored, truly exquisite. Among them, the theatrical mural on the east side of the south wall is one of the "Three Wonders of Guangsheng," and it, along with the polo scene on the upper north side of the west wall, was included in the "Chinese History" textbook in 1998.

M30***69The Big Locust Tree is a place where one can forget their troubles and purify their soul. Its sacredness and tranquility soothe everyone who comes to worship their ancestors. If you also yearn for inner peace, then come to the Big Locust Tree; I believe you will find it rewarding. The景区 service is excellent! 👍💕
4.8/5Anonymous userAside from the rainy day, everything else was great. The only thing was that we came across the Jinci Temple, a place covered in a high school or middle school textbook, and we thought it was worth visiting. The temple itself is very rich in content, and there are other attractions nearby, but because it was raining, we could only visit a few of those places.

205***07It covers a large area and has a well-developed layout, nestled against the mountains and overlooking the water, reflecting the ancient city-building system. The watchtowers are very tall, giving it a strong sense of guarding the border and protecting against enemies. Walking on the city walls is a unique experience. However, it gets very sunny in the summer, and the streets feel quite hot. It's particularly suitable for taking photos in period costumes.
