There are many ancient towns in China, which are of unique value today because they have preserved a large number of historical buildings or have profound historical significance, and a large part of them were developed and utilized in the later period for everyone to visit. Many ancient cities have become famous scenic spots in China, because they can feel the history and atmosphere at that time at close range. When people choose tourist attractions, such attractions are more popular with everyone.

There is an ancient city in Xuanhua District, Zhangjiakou, which is 50 km away from the northwest of Beijing 1260 years ago. It is a national 3A-level scenic spot, and people highly praise it as "the pearl beyond the Great Wall". It is the "Xuanhua Ancient City".

This is a city built in the Ming Dynasty. Now it is located in Xuanhua District, only 6 kilometers away from the urban area. This is a good place for us to play on weekends. The ancient city consists of Xuanhua City Wall, Qingyuan Pavilion and Zhenshuo Building. There are ancient city walls, magnificent towers, exquisite murals painted by Liao Dynasty and a "Pear Flower Temple", all of which have witnessed the changes of this city. It has the reputation of "the first government in western Beijing".

A long time ago, because of its unique geographical location, it was a military town and was valued by every generation of military strategists. And in ancient times, the economy here was also very developed. Now that we are walking in the ancient city, we can still see the traces of the "rice market" and "mule market" at that time, and we can really feel the prosperity at that time. Because Xuanhua is close to Inner Mongolia grassland, it is also a place where multi-ethnic cultures meet and merge. It has both the customs of Han nationality and the characteristics of nomadic people. The murals in some places in the city are very distinctive, showing the customs and habits of the Liao Dynasty and the lifestyle of people at that time.

The traffic here is very convenient, because it is not far from the city, so you can take a taxi or take a bus. If you drive by yourself, you can take the expressway quickly. The opening hours of the ancient city are from 9 am to 5 pm every day. After booking tickets online, you need to pick them up at the scenic spot ticket office. There will be a short message after you book them. This short message is for everyone. It's a ticket voucher. It should be noted that the tickets purchased on that day are only valid on that day.
