Located in the Jinyuan District of Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, this ancient county preserves a history spanning over 600 years. It is widely celebrated as the "Phoenix County," a name inspired by its architectural resemblance to the mythical Chinese creature.

Following a period of decline, the town underwent a comprehensive restoration starting in 2013 and reopened to the public in May 2021. At dusk, the golden rays of the setting sun illuminate the restored Ming Dynasty ramparts, casting a radiant light across the historic streets. In this quiet moment, the ancient city stands as a testament to the enduring cultural heritage of Shanxi.
