Cool off in Datong this summer.

The ancient city of Datong is very impressive, especially when viewed from the southern square. The ancient city, which spans ancient and modern times, stands tall on the plateau outside the Great Wall, with a majestic atmosphere that makes people gaze at it and think about it. The south gate is not open, you can enter the ancient city by walking east or west along the city wall. Walking under the city wall and looking at the inscriptions on the city tower gives you a more immersive experience. You can go up the city wall. The east gate has recently started charging, and the west gate is said to be free. You can see the panoramic view of the ancient city from the city wall, with ancient buildings and ancient houses connected by eaves. If the weather is good, it will be very spectacular. Datong City Gate has a complete urn city, which is a highlight. Those who are interested in learning about military, history, architecture and other related knowledge can watch and learn up close. Thanks to the high-speed rail, Datong is only two hours away from Beijing. When Beijing is hot, Datong is cool. Cool off in Datong this summer. There are delicious and cheap knife-cut noodles, shaomai and other delicacies, ancient buildings worth exploring, carefully designed clean and tidy homestays, and the daily life of the citizens full of cultural atmosphere. There is still so much to describe and introduce... The ancient capital of China, Datong. The clever pun, the profound and beautiful implication, Datong, come on.
