The Screen of the Capital and the Important Town of Nine Frontiers｜Xuanhua Ancient City in Zhangjiakou, Hebei

[Xuanhua Ancient City, the Screen of the Capital, an Important Town in the Nine Frontiers] Arrive at Zhangjiakou Xuanhua, an important town in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, in the afternoon. The Three Towers of Xuanhua are the representative of the ancient city of Xuanhua. They are three Ming Dynasty towers located on the central axis, from south to north, namely Gongji Tower, Zhenshuo Tower, and Qingyuan Tower. Among them, Qingyuan Tower has the most beautiful appearance. There is a porch on each of the north and south sides of the attic, with eaves on all four sides, as if it is ready to dance and take off into the sky at any time. There is also a Gothic church in the ancient city, which is very eye-catching under the blue sky and white clouds. The small Xuanhua Museum also has treasures, such as the bronze pot with a handle from the Warring States Period (with wine in it), the painted murals from the Liao Tombs in Xiabali, and the yellow pomelo porcelain, all of which are the best of the best. The mountains are silent, the rivers are vast, the border town is far away, and the sky is high and the land is vast!

📝Note tips:
The ancient city is free to enter, but you need to buy a ticket to climb the tower, 10 yuan
