Content introduction:
Shanxi Province has preserved about 70% of the large-scale wooden buildings before the Ming Dynasty, and the number of ancient buildings in various forms ranks first in the country. Many ancient buildings have been preserved in Pingyang (now Linfen) and Hedong (now Yuncheng) in the south of Shanxi, with long time span, various forms and high density. The buildings of Tang, Song, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties are everywhere, so they are called "ancient buildings".
