Location: In the north street.
Description: There are so many mansions, temples, museums, inns and shops in Pingyao Ancient Town – where do you start exploring? The answer definitely is Ming Qing Street , the main downtown thoroughfare.
This street has undergone major restoration and its attractions now include hotels offering traditional brick-oven beds, restaurants serving Pingyao’s famous beef and shops hawking an astonishing array of art wares such as antiques, furniture, ancient coins, Chinese paintings, jade ware, lacquer ware and traditional folk clothing. In the old period, over 700 shops peppered this same street and several remain exactly as they have for centuries. On this lively street, just shouting to be climbed, is the 18.5m high Town Tower – the tallest structure in town, where you’ll want to catch the view of inundating tiled roofs of the entire city when you reach the top.
