Yongning Ancient City

I went to Yongning Ancient City four times in four years. This is the first time I don't need to scan the health code and don't wear a mask. Maybe because the city management has strengthened the rectification, parking is not allowed in front of the ancient city building, and the market is also a lot clean and tidy. Feel good! I like tofu brain and oil cakes in the early store. Oil cakes are sold for 9 yuan a catty, and three salted oil cakes are just 6 yuan. The peppers in the morning market are better. A big mention of 10 yuan is enough to 16 pounds, which is too cost-effective!

From Yanxu Road through Liu Weibao to see the sea of flowers in the four seasons, Yongning Ancient City can be described as a must-pass place. This time I passed by the nearby gas station ⛽️, and I went to the ancient city to see what was fun on the big set. A grass mat is still popular. It’s just that Yongning specialty tofu, a lot of Cangye are ding...

Yongning tofu famous food is tofu. Unlike elsewhere, Yongning's tofu practice uses sour pulp tofu, although this technology takes time, difficult to do, the season, weather, sour pulp old tender and temperature requirements are very strict, but the technology tofu is also more delicious and beautiful.

Like a pure rural car, it doesn’t have to be parked in the city. The road in the city is narrow. It’s not easy to drive. It’s hard to find a parking space. It looks very novel. Hawthorn cake is delicious. The fire spoon is really different from the city. There are really too many people... It’s still very special. ～
