The back door of the Chenghuang Temple Grand Theatre "dare to enter", the word "enter" is quite elegant, shaped like the word "knife". A knife on the top of the door, ask if people can't enter? The good man entered, but the evil man was at a loss. The door on the back of the bell tower on the east side of the main courtyard of the Chenghuang Temple"Different surnames and Happy", said that although the surnames are very different, but pray for the stove king to bless, eat and drink, like-minded, happy in it. The back door of the Drum Tower on the west side - "money and humanity", telling people that the money of the god of wealth is connected with humanity, and it is good - a hundred years, abominable - smelly, and must be good for yourself.

    I went to Pingyao to know that I can't enter the ancient city by car. I knew that it was better to take the high-speed rail. If you are staying, it is recommended to live in the ancient city. It is much more convenient to go anywhere, and you can also feel the night view of the ancient city.
