The most prosperous place in Datong is not the Drum Tower, but Daxi Street, which is a prosperous commercial area (relatively high-end), and Dongguan is also a relatively prosperous area (more affordable).

Good places to eat in Datong. I personally think Kaige Sanbu is good. It’s delicious and affordable. The specialty of Datong is shaved noodles and jelly. The price is about the same (about 5 yuan). There are shaved noodles and jelly shops everywhere on the street.

Attractions: The ancient city wall in the city center is very distinctive, and then there are the long-famous Yungang Grottoes, Hengshan Mountain, Hanging Temple, Nine Dragon Wall, Shangxia Huayan, etc. The others are of little interest.
