    "The "three treasures" in Jinci have the Northern Song Dynasty Notre Dame Palace, the fish marsh Feiliang in front of the temple and the Jin Dynasty Temple, which are all domestic orphans. The "three musts" are the ancient cypress of the Zhou Dynasty for 3,000 years, the colorful plastic lady of the Song Dynasty and the source of Jin water."

    "Especially historical value, and there were two hundred-year-old ginkgo trees in the park at that time, and there was a large golden ginkgo leaf on the ground. The effect of taking pictures was particularly freehand. The Queen Mother Hall cannot go into the inner hall to take pictures, but can only take the wooden statues inside from a distance at the entrance of the hall. It is a pity."

    Highlights: Jinci Museum is located along the Jin River in the foothills of Taiyuan, Taiyuan. The building commemorates Tang Shuyu, the founder of the Jin State, and was built as an ancestral hall. Jin Ancestral Hall is home to “3 treasures”: the temple, a bridge over a fish pond, and the Goddess Hall. The “3 unique features” of the Ancestral Hall are ancient trees, Nanlao Spring, and painted clay figurines. To the south is Shifang Fengsheng Temple in the south which, according to legend, was originally the villa of the Tang Dynasty general Yu Chigong.

    "Guo is very dedicated, the whole process is still in the middle of us to drink water, the service is very good, mainly to explain the sound and emotional, there is a sense of affection, such an explanation is very substituting, will not feel boring, will not be the kind of blunt explanation of the manuscript. Shanxi Museum, there are really many good things, and if no one explains it, I really don't understand it. The tour guide told us through the history string, the cultural relics are dead, and only the historical relics are more valuable. The Bronze Museum is also very good. Shanxi Museum, really can rank the top of the national ranking."
