Yuci, called Tushui and Yu Wei in the Spring and Autumn Period, was renamed Yuci in the Warring States Period, belonging to Taiyuan County. The following is an introduction of Yuci tourist attractions that I have compiled for you. Welcome to reading.

The main buildings and landscapes are "one mountain, one pavilion, two pavilions, four gardens, five courtyards, six waters, nine halls, eight columns, thirteen pavilions, twenty-five corridors and twenty-seven houses". In the middle of the inner courtyard of each square yard, there is a wooden archway with cornices and arches. There are brick carved walls on both sides of the archway. The arched flower wall divides the main courtyard into three forms: five li and five wai, four li and four wai, and five li and five wai, which has a unique style.

3. Apricot Garden Apricot Garden is the earliest garden of Changjia Manor, located in Yuci District, Jinzhong, southeast of Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province. When the Northern Ancestral Temple was completed in the fifth year of Guangxu (1 10 years ago), the Chang family built an apricot altar in the apricot garden, and asked someone to dedicate a statue of Confucius to it and named it the apricot garden to pay tribute to the family's porous sage. In terms of artistic conception and feelings, the apricot garden has three meanings: first, it advocates Confucianism and respects Confucius, because Confucius gave lectures in Xinglin that year and started Confucianism; Second, apricot blossoms bloom in February, which is the earliest time to announce spring, so it is also called "seasonal flower". Thirdly, according to legend, Dong Feng, a famous doctor in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, only asked his family to plant apricot trees in front of his house. After years of success, Dong Feng was also honored as a fairy because of his medical ethics.
