Hebei Zhangjiakou | Yu County Nuanquan Ancient Town | Experience the vicissitudes and glory of history.

| Yu County Nuanquan Ancient Town | Experience the vicissitudes and glory of history. A small ancient town full of life 🏯 Nuanquan Ancient Town is located in the west of Yu County, Hebei Province. It was established in the Yuan Dynasty and developed into "three forts, six lanes, and eighteen villages" during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The ancient town is named after a spring with a constant temperature all year round. It is also the best-preserved castle in the Yu State area. 🏯 The architectural style here is unique. The ancient city walls and city gates tell the glory and vicissitudes of the past. The ancient houses, ancient temples, and ancient opera buildings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties are well preserved. The green bricks and gray tiles, carved beams and painted buildings, show the simplicity and charm. Xigubao is a landmark building in Nuanquan Ancient Town, integrating ancient castles, ancient opera buildings, temples, and courtyards. The structure is rigorous and the layout is ingenious. 🏯 Walking on the stone road of the ancient town, it seems to have traveled back to the past. The traditional handicraft shops on the street are full of treasures, and the paper-cutting, lanterns, etc. are unique to the local area. Here, you can taste local delicacies, such as Fen Tuo and dried tofu, and feel the life of the ancient town. — 📍 Self-driving must navigate to Nuanquan Ancient Town Xigubao (❌Do not directly navigate to Nuanquan Ancient Town, it will go to the visitor center, which is more than ten kilometers away from the core area) 🚌 You can take a township bus in Yu County to get there. There are fewer shifts, and you can also take a taxi. ⏳️ Tour route: Beiguanbao➠Laojun Temple➠Wang Min Academy➠Xigubao➠Zhongxiaobao➠Snack Square➠Huayan Temple➠Tree Flower Square 🥘 Specialty snacks: yellow cake, water-milled bean flour, rotating powder, dried tofu, mule meat... You can eat them in the snack square of the ancient town. I personally feel that the yellow cake and mule meat are the most delicious, and the others are too plain. 🎇 There is a tree flower performance at night, but it is charged 🎫138/person, depending on personal preference.
