As one of the largest and best-preserved ancient cities from the Ming and Qing dynasties in China, it is not only a national historical and cultural city but also a UNESCO World Heritage site.

It integrates ancient temples, ancient market towers, ancient streets, ancient shops, and ancient residential buildings, forming a structurally complete and grand architectural and cultural heritage complex. These heritage sites collectively constitute the overall characteristics and comprehensive value of the ancient city of Pingyao. This book provides detailed primary materials for the study of urban planning, architecture, as well as history and folklore.
