Sharing an itinerary for exploring ancient sites in Zhengding

Zhengding Ancient City is not large, making it perfect for a one-day historical excursion with its many well-preserved ancient architectural relics. I arrived at Zhengding Station by slow train the night before and stayed at the Hanting Hotel near the South Gate. I started early the next morning, walking directly onto the east city wall, reaching the South Gate in about half an hour. Here's the general route: (1) South Gate (2) Guanghui Temple (Not visited) Linji Temple (3) Yanhe Tower / Guandi Temple (4) Zhengding Liang Clan Ancestral Hall (5) Kaiyuan Temple (6) County Confucian Temple (7) Prefecture Confucian Temple (8) Tianning Temple (9) Longxing Temple (10) Zhengding Museum You can see all the main architectural sites in one day. (If you're interested in learning more, you might want to refer to Liang Sicheng's "Brief Record of Zhengding Investigation" and Liu Dunzhen's "Notes on the Investigation of Ancient Architecture in Hebei".) 🍜Food: After passing Kaiyuan Temple, I found a place selling shaomai and chicken recommended by the driver, which was perfect for lunch. The night before, I also ordered takeout from Zhao's Fried Skewers, which was quite good.
