how about tourist accommodation in Shanxi? Where to stay when traveling to Shanxi?
If you live in Taiyuan, yingze district is rich in artistic flavor and profound in cultural heritage, and it is deeply loved by tourists. At the same time, there are many food streets, shopping places, hotels and convenient transportation.
If you live in Pingyao, it is recommended to stay in the ancient city. There are many antique inns in Pingyao ancient town, and you can feel the unique customs of the northern quadrangles. The night view of Pingyao ancient town is unique, which can be said to be a major feature.
I would like to remind you that the choice of where to live depends mainly on your own itinerary, and the choice is based on cleanliness, comfort, reasonable price and convenient transportation! It's best to book online in advance and check in directly after arrival, which can save a lot of time.
if you don't want to spend a lot of time choosing a hotel, you can also book it directly with a professional travel agency, which is not only worry-free, but also very affordable. After all, they have low-cost channels!
Xiao Bian traveled to Pingyao Ancient Town and stayed at Yunjincheng Mansion, Pingyao, which is located in the pedestrian street of the ancient city. It is antique, clean and sanitary, and the service is also very good. The online price of the superior big bed room is around 9 yuan. Here, you can make a reservation for one trip, only about 5 yuan a night, which is quite cost-effective!
