At 8 am, your guide will pick you up in your hotel lobby in Beijing with a sign saying your name, then transfer you to Beijing West Railway Station to catch a 4-hour bullet train to Pingyao.
Upon arrival in Pingyao, you will be transferred to old town of Piangyao. Pingyao was inscribed in the World Heritage by UNESCO in 1997, and is now renowned for its city layout from the Ming and Qing dynasties, conforming to a typical bagua pattern. More than 300 sites in or near the city have ancient ruins. Preserved Ming- and Qing-style residences number close to 4,000. The streets and storefronts still largely retain their historical appearance.
Pingyao was the financial center of China in the late Qing Dynasty. During those times, there were as many as 20 financial institutions within the city, comprising more than half of total in the whole country.
You can wander around Old City Wall of Pingyao, Confucius Temple, Rishenchang Bank Institute, Yamun etc. today.
Beef and noodles are very yummy local food, so do not miss opportunity to taste for the dinner time at the local restaurant.
