Roaming the ancient city, heading to Tianshui Malatang

⛰️Scenic Spot Introduction A citywalk themed around Tianshui Malatang, the ancient city of Tianshui is not far from Malatang Street. It is worth taking a stroll through this well-preserved residential complex from the Ming and Qing dynasties, which is one of the largest in the northwest region. The ancient city is not very large, and the attractions are free. There are many restaurants and tea houses, some of which are quite unique and thoughtfully decorated. There are not many people, making it comfortable for a leisurely walk and a short rest. 🚗Transportation Information Fuxi Temple is within walking distance to the ancient city, and there are buses near Tianshui Railway Station that can take you directly there. However, the distance is relatively far, so if you are short on time, you might consider taking a taxi. 🍜Food Recommendations From the ancient city, it takes about 15 minutes on foot to reach the popular Malatang Street (which is actually just a small alley). The two popular stores, Ha Haiying Malatang and Kaiyuan Malatang, usually require about an hour of waiting even at around 3 PM. Each skewer, whether meat or vegetable, costs one yuan. The traditional Malatang cooking method is used, followed by mixing with seasonings. The soul of the dish is the Gangu chili used here, which is fragrant but not spicy. However, to be honest, the taste is quite average. The chili has a somewhat bitter aftertaste, and the overall feeling is quite oily. But since Tianshui Malatang is so popular, you have to try it at least once.
