600-year-old alleys from the Ming and Qing dynasties around Xi'an! Movies shine into reality!

This place is exactly like the northern compound you see in the movies! The feeling of shining into reality, this architectural style, very geographical characteristics, gray sky and yellow earth courtyard... For a second, I felt like I went back to fifty or sixty years ago~ Ancient buildings from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, about 600 years ago (it was a relatively large street in Tongguan County during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and it has been preserved to this day because of the high terrain). The house is hundreds of years old, and the tree is also hundreds of years old. About 100 meters into the alley, there is a huge locust tree lying in the middle of the alley! It is said that it was planted by Emperor Qianlong. When I saw it, I just thought that the tree looked very strange. I didn't expect it to have such a long history. In addition to the ancient alley and ancient trees, there are also ancient temples and ancient wells. The incense of the ancient temple continues, and the ancient well is said to have been praised by Emperor Qianlong for its delicious water. The whole alley is worth visiting under the background of humanities and history... Next to the alley is the Tongguan Ancient City, where you can overlook the Yellow River, which is spectacular! In winter, I saw the Yellow River icicles mentioned in the geography book... It is the birthplace of [roujiamo], just find a restaurant to eat, it is really delicious! Tongguan Ancient City
