It used to be China's financial center in the late Qing Dynasty. Now, the streets, shops, and houses in the ancient city still maintain its traditional layout and style. When you enter this once prosperous ancient city, you will be readily brought back to the period when Shanxi's merchant culture was at its peak.

Towards the end of the Qing Dynasty when Empress Dowager Cixi passed by the ancient city, she loved eatng Pingyao beef.Show Less - 6.84.5/5845 ReviewFree"In April, the spring flowers bloom, go to the ancient city of Datong, blow the wind of Northern Wei, enjoy the dragon year flower lights on the ancient city wall, climb the ancient city wall of Datong, cross the flower lamp corridor, there are lifelike dragon and phoenix dances, there are symbols of auspicious elephants, there are historical allusions towel style, the flower lamp design is unique, it is worthwhile to visit 👍👍👏👏"Datong.Ancient City Tourist Cultural Area>100km from downtownHighlights: The ancient city wall of Datong was built in the fifth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty.

- 6.54.5/5455 ReviewFrom16.56"After Ctrip booked the ticket, I directly swiped my ID card to enter the park. The Daiwang Mansion is a large house that has been built a few times. Although it was built later, it is quite large. Every time I enter the yard, there are different performance programs, especially the immersive experience drama "Datong in the World" at 8 pm. It is very exciting and worth seeing."Datong.Ancient City Tourist Cultural Area>100km from downtownHighlights: 【Introduction to Daiwangfu】Zhu Gui, Prince of Dai, was the thirteenth son of Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty. His mother was Consort Guo Huifei, and his principal wife was Consort Xu, the daughter of Xu Da, the Prince of Zhongshan. He was one of the nine princes who fought against foreign invaders.The "Nine Frontier Kings" refer to the vassal kings appointed by the Ming Dynasty to guard the frontiers and expand the territory. From east to west, they are the King of Han, the King of Shen, the King of Liao, the King of Ning, the King of Qi, the King of Yan, the King of Gu, the King of Dai, the King of Jin, the King of An, the King of Qin, the King of Qing, and the King of Su. Under the general environment of the initial political situation in the early Ming Dynasty, these vassal kings were responsible for guarding the frontiers, protecting the country and repelling the barbarians. It can be said that the first generation of "Nine Frontier Kings" was a luxurious facelift of the Ming Dynasty. Among them was "Yan King" Zhu Di, who ascended the throne through the "Jingnan Campaign".Datong, where King Dai was stationed, was the core of the "Nine Frontier Cities" and the gateway to protect the capital.Dai Wangfu is the residence of Zhu Gui, the Dai Wang of Ming Dynasty. It is located in the northeast corner of Datong Ancient City, facing south and in a rectangular shape. It was a high-ranking and large-scale palace complex in Datong City in Ming Dynasty. It was also the carrier of the patriarchal hierarchy and feudal etiquette of the country at that time. 11 Dai Wangs successively managed government affairs here, carrying extremely rich historical and cultural information.The Dai Palace was built in 1392 AD (the 25th year of the Hongwu reign). It was built by Dai Prince Zhu Gui on the basis of the Xijing Imperial Academy of the Liao and Jin Dynasties. It was basically completed in 1396 (the 29th year of the Hongwu reign), which took 4 years to complete. The main buildings on the central axis are Chengyun Hall, Cunxin Hall and Changchun Palace.The entire palace complex is large in scale, majestic, magnificent, with deep palaces, scattered houses and winding corridors. The Dai Palace was built based on the Nanjing Ming Palace, with reduced regulations, and strictly in accordance with the construction principle of the capital in "Zhou Li·Kaogongji" of "front court and back market, left ancestor and right community". In terms of architectural layout, the entire palace is combined into a whole with the techniques of shape changes and ups and downs. Functionally, it conforms to the hierarchy of feudal society. At the same time, it achieves the artistic effect of left-right balance and shape changes. As a structure, there are many memorial archways in the palace, including "Qin Cheng Shang Ming Shi Shou Dai Bang Archway" on the east side of the door and "Tian Huang Zong Di Qin Fan Archway" on the west side of the door. The memorial archways are tall and majestic, showing the majesty of the palace. The entire building complex is connected by corridors and courtyards, with scattered houses, front halls and back bedrooms, two side rooms, deep palaces and winding corridors. It is a large-scale and well-planned prince's residence. As a prince's residence, the Dai Wang Mansion is unprecedented in scale. It is not only the largest princely palace complex in the Ming Dynasty, but also a witness to the entire Ming Dynasty's frontier legend.【Performance Introduction】The performances at the Dai Wangfu are still mainly based on the "Great Harmony in the World" series, retaining the "Municipal Customs and Folk Customs" series that was widely acclaimed during the Spring Festival, and creating a new "Ming Dynasty Style" series, which includes a main show "Great Harmony in the World", 16 supporting shows, and 24 small theater shows.In the "Great Harmony of the World", you can immerse yourself in the integration of the Han and the Hu peoples in the border areas of the Ming Dynasty, the exotic customs and the tense confrontation between the military strongholds. Jinyi arrests, military garrisons in the nine border areas, imperial concubine selection and palace fighting... The one-hour main show and five supporting shows make you not only an audience but also a part of the show."The Glory of the Ming Dynasty" is a brand-new performing arts series this year. With 10 wonderful programs, you can see the flying apsaras on the murals, royal banquets, the royal son-in-law, the royal love, as well as drumming, lion fighting, on-site scientific expeditions by Liu Bowen and Li Shanchang, the founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty, and the patriotism of the nine important towns. There is also a colorful light show that lights up the night sky of the Dai Palace."Municipal Folk Customs" presents 24 wonderful plays in a very down-to-earth form. "Two hands dance with each other to tell the history of the past, and a curtain of lanterns hides the Spring and Autumn Period," a shadow play tells a century of history; "The three-foot stage is a play in the palm of your hand, and ten fingers are intertwined with sorrow and joy," a puppet show goes through all kinds of life; shuttles between reality and fantasy, and switches between art and magic, an ancient magic trick encompasses everything in the world; rooted in the folk, but also a universal language of the world, an acrobatic performance of the art of body language.Show Less

Because of the time relationship, the scenery at night is beautiful and beautiful. After coming out, it is not easy to find a car, and the logo is not obvious. Overall it is worth seeing."Jincheng>100km from downtownHighlights: Situ Town recreates the traditional life of a Shanxi market town. When you come to Situ Town, you can experience the warmth of local culture and sample tasty local delicacies. Even more worthwhile is the live “iron fireworks” show. The special technique of incorporating molten iron into a fireworks show requires great skill that has developed over a thousand years. The Spring Festival season is the golden time to visit Situ Town. The high-hung lanterns create a richly festive atmosphere as you stroll slowly down the quaint streets. There are also other folk performances like lion and dragon dances, stilt-walkers, and boat dances. Situ Town also has an “iron fireworks” troop. At dusk, over a thousand people simultaneously set off iron fireworks, and it looks as though heavenly maidens are scattering heavenly blossoms, a marvelous sight.Show Less
