Zhangbi Castle is located between Pingyao Ancient City and Mianshan Mountain. It drives from Pingyao for an hour along Panshan Road to Zhangbi Castle, a mysterious town in the deep mountains. This small mountain village, with only 0.12 square kilometers, is said to have been built into a well-guarded military castle in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. We went into the castle with more than 10,000 meters long, three-dimensional underground defensive fortifications, and experienced the underground military life of an ancient army soldier and general! The patio dug just above the bottom looks up at the sky. It really feels like sitting in a well and watching the sky. At the same time, there are more than a dozen large and small temples in the village. In addition to the temples dedicated to Buddhism, Taoism and Guan Lao Ye, there are also the Khan King Temple dedicated to the Mongolian people. On both sides of the road of Gubao Village, there are left-over shop facades, the village's primitive houses, the simple villagers, the ancient locust trees with willows, and the chic entrance buildings, which enable tourists to appreciate the ancient northern culture.

    Very good attractions, worth a visit, the elderly and children also like it very much, like a small maze, the cultural relics are well preserved. Parking around is also very convenient, both the north and south gates can be accessed.

    A relatively small ancient village, there were not many tourists when we went. It takes a few people to go down the tunnel together, otherwise "no ancient people before and no people after" will be a bit scary, hahaha. The village is relatively small, but it is scattered and there are several temples to see. Especially the unique peacock blue glazed tiles, is a rare treasure.

    Very primitive village, stepping into the tunnel is like a reverse of time, and a glimpse into part of the life of the ancients. However, people with claustrophobia or heart disease and high blood pressure are cautiously entering, although I do not feel sultry, but I am afraid of people with basic diseases, and there will be psychological hints of discomfort after going down.

    The scenic spot is far from the city, and can only be driven by car or with a group. The scenic spot is well managed, with a standard of 4A, the parking lot is not small, and the parking fee is 10 yuan. But to be honest, the playability is not very strong, there are some so-called traditional houses, as well as temples such as Guandi Temple of the Buddha Temple of Taoism. There is an authentic road worth seeing, more shocking than the Jiaozhuanghu authentic war museum in Shunyi, Beijing. Generally, it is not worth going specifically.
