New Year's first on a Friday night, I and the three partners embarked on a Qu Wang Jinzhong of the 2519 second train, overnight train travel for self-help for those who really save time save money and a perfect choice. Night No words, as the train late that we arrived on Saturday morning, 9:00 Lingshi station. got off the train on the characteristics of Shanxi felt the air floating with the soot of the taste, it seems to block the feeling of living in the other, I just felt like the throat seems to have smoking. we do not have to go out from the outbound port, but to see a path directly toward the station. standing on the roadside to wait for a one way ride to station 23 Then take the 2-way car, you can go to Wang's Grand Courtyard of. and they were not the station license, as long as the stand by the roadside just fine. locals are very warm, guiding us is very detailed, so that we can feel that they The simplicity and goodness, this is our first impression of Shanxi. to the Wang's Grand Courtyard, we have to go first to a small restaurant to eat breakfast, and then spent 45 yuan per person per ticket, and bought a tour ticket into the Wang's Grand Courtyard. Because it is low season, few tourists, tour guides also explain in more detail too. we have a relatively calm time to watch the structure of each compound in a careful and meticulous planning of the carved beams columns, beautiful screen wall, depth of the courtyard , and the exquisite door stones. really too beautiful, and very imposing. and the Forbidden City feel very different. The Imperial Palace because it is the Royal Palace, so there are more of a burden, but Wang's Grand Courtyard is not. more is pay attention to detail. This is our very favorite one of its place, we looked at a number of fine details a common feeling is: too corrupt.呵呵~ ~ ~
Wang's Grand Courtyard us a tour of more than three hours before the end of a packet from the door directly to Pingyao Changhe. A total cost of 100 yuan, the overall feeling of partial expensive, but we are also less likely to bargain, so we can only this way, and some less than 60 kilometers away, perhaps 70 or 80 more appropriate bar.
Pingyao Ancient City for our first impression was really run-down呀. Wall like a newly built, with no expectation of rhyme, to be worn in ancient times past gives people a feeling of ancient thought. We are in the collaborative Qing ancient coins Museums stay there, the room was also nice that the bedding is not clean, thanks to where I used to have to bring bed sheets, so it is barely in the past. where the water is very bad, wash the hair, the result might as well do not wash it the next day morning, one up, their hair is not opened, and hey! in the evening we would like to see the sunset on the wall before we know now only 85 yuan to buy the joint ticket, no longer confined to selling tickets for each attraction, and we take a look at a new repair walls and the colorful flags hanging above the lantern, it is that very value for money, so I decided to forget the outside to look at. Pingyao Management Office did not know how the consideration. not in the ancient city where eating out on the market asked us to ask the locals recommended a small restaurant, the meal break is also very dirty and very slow, sell Pingyao beef is very tasty also expensive, but his face is still good to eat, so we no longer critical of. After dinner the night had enveloped the city, many shops have been on the door we are free to stroll the stroll, found that many of the stores selling hand-embroidered shoes, very good, prices are very fair, but still need Kanjia the ah. a person bought a pair of happily go back to sleep. As for the push light lacquer, my view is do not buy worth mentioning.
Sunday morning, get up and ate breakfast, went straight to Shuang Lin Temple. Pingyao bus from there, also 10 minutes away, two dollars per ticket, but the train you think the locals do not think it is a money Fine, Who is the outsiders that we do. Shuang Lin Temple is also very lonely, there is a hall is being renovated, but it is still well worth a place to go. lifelike painted sculptures of his, after a few storms North Korea has maintained a good style, particularly comfortable in the Goddess of Mercy and Wu transparent text Skanda people feel really great beauty that should be the gem of the art bar. We're still on the Main Hall to the Buddha of incense, hoping that he bless us in the new year around all my family and friends good health and safe fun bar. Shuang Lin Temple walked out of a tunnel under the road than can be stopped the bus to Taiyuan, and we are under the car Qiao Jia Da Yuan, about 40 minutes or so to the The fare is 15 yuan. the car there are videos look very good.
Qiao Jia Da Yuan and Wang's Grand Courtyard is a very different feeling. And the door of Joe Courtyard occupied by various vendors and no plan is really a mess and repair the archway entrance of new really ugly. Not as Wang is the official residence is still very the atmosphere, but it is QIAO Jia-houses so it is from the scale or the details are not refined and scattered Royal. perhaps only because Zhang Yimou here, took movies. And here is more obvious than in the Royal tour guides fool thing, very unprofessional, and then you take out to put next to a Folk let you buy things. we do not have to go back and then look to buy, she said that no longer go out, and we say why you brought us out of are not willing to come out of our own, so we again get in.. we also need to pay attention to this little trap ah.
Qiao Jia Da Yuan we read at the door sat a CMB, each 10 yuan to the construction of the South bus station in Taiyuan. Car about 50 minutes. As the approaching Spring Festival was very bad sleeper buy, so we are ahead of care a friend in Taiyuan to the generation of bought ticket fee will be 30 yuan a surprise, but can buy is pretty good. We are eating a meal of corruption dinner, and then take the K702 (21:00 start) Monday morning, 7 : 10 to Beijing Railway Station.
This trip is over, generally speaking, this kind of short-haul trips Shanxi is a good choice. And his houses really is worth a look. Jinzhong can experience the unique cultural heritage.
