Pingyao is an ancient city, why is it included in the World Cultural Heritage List?
Because Pingyao Ancient City is the most complete ancient county in China.

We ancients were very wise, and we should admire architecture and all kinds of cultures. Pingyao Ancient City, located in Pingyao County, Shaanxi Province, has been established since the Western Zhou Xuanwang period. Pingyao ancient city used to be called ancient pottery. In the Ming Dynasty, the city wall was built to resist foreign invasion. During the reign of Kangxi, four towers were built to make Pingyao ancient city more spectacular.

Because of its integrity, it applied for Guinness World Records and was included in the World Cultural Heritage List. World cultural heritage is a restriction initiated by the United Nations, which is global and contains very high gold content. Therefore, if it is evaluated, it will be celebrated all over the world. Fortunately, Pingyao ancient city won this honor.

China and China in history are different in many aspects, whether in culture, economy or religion. Although there are some historical records in ancient times, they are not comprehensive. If we want to understand the ancient society at that time, we should start with what happened at that time, so the subject of archaeology came into being. Through archaeology, we entered a different world.

With our imagination, we can't accurately describe ancient life and understand them, but if we have something from that era, we can enter that era and feel the prosperity of ancient times. As a city with a long history, Pingyao Ancient City witnessed the development of our history. Through the architecture of Pingyao ancient city, we can see the ancient architectural technology and economic development level.

In the fast-paced modern life, we seem to forget the meaning of life. At this time, you can visit the ancient town, find inner relaxation and peace, and better reflect on yourself. For me, I like visiting such an ancient town very much.
