During the Qing Dynasty, the development of Shanxi merchants also reached a glorious period. They started to trade and gradually turned to the financial industry. They created the banking format of the modern bank's prototype ticket number and controlled most of China's financial lifeline. The Shanxi merchants have money, and they have built houses in their homes. These Jinshang Courtyards have become tourist attractions today. Shanxi's compound, even if it has not been visited, know one or two, the most famous natural is the Qiao family compound. Perhaps it is because the TV series of the same name has greatly enhanced the popularity of the Qiao Family Courtyard, and the Qiao Family Courtyard has become a must-see for Shanxi tourism. The Qiao Family Courtyard is located in Qiaojiabao Village, Jixian County. The location is very good. It is located between the ancient city of Pingyao and Taiyuan. Tourists visiting this route will definitely have a look. It is only over 50 kilometers away from Taiyuan and can be reached in an hour. This courtyard was built in 1756 during the Qing Emperor Qianlong period. Because the family members of the Qiao family continued to expand and the houses built were not enough, they continued to expand until the July 7th Incident in 1937. Construction, with today's scale, lasted for nearly 200 years. This courtyard covers an area of 10,642 square meters. There are 6 large courtyards with 20 small courtyards and 313 houses. It is a closed castle-like building. It is known as the "Royal Palace, and the house is home to Joe." .
