Li Xiao took a bus to Liuxiang Ancient Town. Along the way, he saw the scenery, ancient buildings and small alleys. These scenery made him very amazed.
After arriving at the ancient town, Li Xiao felt as if he had entered an ancient world.
Li Xiao walked through a small alley less than two meters wide, surrounded by high walls and porches. Even in such a small place, there are many architectural styles, as if he were in a magnificent palace.
He walked through a doorway that was obviously the ancient emperor's palace. The doorway was five meters high and about three meters wide.
The blue stone brick wall was carved with exquisite phoenix patterns, shining with golden light. He thought he had to bend down to walk down.
But this small and exquisite green building in the narrow alley is also very distinctive. It is a raised building made of white stone, with winding stairs connecting each floor. It looks like a castle in a fairy tale.
Not long after, Li Xiao discovered an ancient shop with a very beautiful appearance. There were very famous handmade ribs on the door beam, which seemed to have been carved. There were also various famous dishes such as mutton and fat-boiled beef.
At the entrance, this shopkeeper repainted the storefront and placed a row of green potted plants and succulents under the wooden eaves, as if to make it appear more ancient.
After he entered, he became a little disappointed. Although it was really beautiful, the clerk was very conceited.
"Hello, what do you need?" The little girl smiled and pushed the sofa against the horizontal wall.
"The appearance of such a building does not actually mean whether it is economically stable and profitable," Li Xiao said, trying to restore the atmosphere between the two.
The waiter seemed to be aware of Li Xiao's mood, so he patiently explained: "We are a traditional gourmet restaurant here, and for foreign guests, we will also gradually launch slightly unique dishes."
There are many other sights worth appreciating in the narrow alley, such as a handmade brush hanging at the door of every house, with a gray and black wall in the background. It is a beautiful but slightly evocative thing. Many residents are looking at the vivid patterns at the end of the alley.
He learned the beauty of Chinese calligraphy culturally. "This is a piece of art that I really want to own." He thought to himself.
There is also an ordinary small square here, where people play musical instruments and dance happily, all for entertainment and community. Looking at these cheerful people, Li Xiao found that he was also infected by this joy.
"What a nice place." Li Xiao thought.
He walked out of the narrow alley and glanced back, as if the alley was deeply engraved in his mind.
Li Xiao carefully walked into the store. The atmosphere in the store was very warm, making people feel comfortable and relaxed. The decoration in the store was somewhat antique, with a strong traditional atmosphere. There were some handmade artworks hanging on the walls, most of which were Chinese style.
style, or some antique porcelain, wood carvings, etc.
In the store, Li Xiao saw a young woman wearing Chinese clothes. She had long flowing hair, fair skin, a good face, and clear and deep eyes. When the woman saw Li Xiao coming in, she greeted with a smile: "Welcome, may I ask?
What do you need?"
Li Xiao looked at the woman and responded with a smile: "Hello, I was just passing by and wanted to come in and have a look."
The woman smiled and said: "Okay, you are welcome to take a look. If you need any help, you can ask me at any time."
Li Xiao felt that this woman was very friendly, so he walked around the store casually and saw many exquisite handmade artworks. He especially liked a piece of exquisite porcelain with a painting of flowers and birds on it, which was colorful and very beautiful.
"This porcelain is very beautiful. How much does it cost?" Li Xiao asked.
The woman smiled and said: "This porcelain is the star product of our store. It is hand-painted by a famous artist and is very exquisite. Its price is one thousand five hundred yuan."
Li Xiao hesitated when he heard the price. The woman saw his expression and said, "If you think this price is a bit high, we have other more affordable products in our store. You can take a look."
Li Xiao nodded, walked to the other side of the store, and found some more affordable handicrafts. He took a fancy to a beautifully carved tea tray, which cost five hundred yuan.
"This tea tray is good, I will buy it." Li Xiao said.
The woman smiled and said: "Okay, please wait a moment, I will help you pack it."
Li Xiao waited for the woman to help him pack the handicrafts, and then left the shop with the tea tray. He was very happy that he found such a beautiful thing and could take it home as a souvenir.
They are all very exquisite. There are many kinds of handicrafts displayed in the store, and each one is very beautiful and makes people unable to put it down.
"Hello, welcome." A young girl greeted him with a smile, "Do you need any help?"
"Well, I just took a look." Li Xiao said with a smile.
"Okay, feel free to take a look." The girl smiled friendly.
Li Xiao browsed the various handicrafts in the store and found that each one was very exquisite. He especially liked a red silk painting, which depicted a crane soaring in the clouds, which was very beautiful.
"How much does this painting cost?" Li Xiao asked the girl.
"This painting is on sale, only 500 yuan." The girl replied with a smile.
Li Xiao did not hesitate. He thought the painting was so beautiful. He handed the money to the girl and left the shop.
He continued to walk forward and walked into a small restaurant called "Hongyun Dumpling House". The signature dishes of this dumpling house are hot and sour noodles and boiled dumplings. Many people come to taste these delicacies every day. Li Xiao ordered
A portion of boiled dumplings and a bowl of hot and sour noodles, he found the food here to be very delicious.
"Are you here for tourism?" an old man sitting next to him asked him.
"Yes, I came to Taiyuan for tourism." Li Xiao replied.
After hearing Li Xiao's answer, the vendor showed a friendly smile. "Welcome to Taiyuan. The Liuxiang Ancient Town here is a famous attraction in Taiyuan. You will definitely like it," he said.

Li Xiao walked into Liuxiang Ancient Town and smelled the fresh fragrance of flowers and the smell of wood from old buildings. The town was full of history, and there were decorations and furnishings with ulterior motives everywhere. He walked through the street in front of a fountain,
The indescribable designs of the buildings on both sides made him feel even more emboldened. Picturesque music and hymns of praise were flowing between the intriguing bridges, just like a string of narrow paths intertwined at will.
He walked into a cafe called "Ancient Alley Parlor" and ordered a cup of latte and a piece of tiramisu cake. Various artworks were hung in the corridor, from ancient flutes to modern pianos.
Objects are placed in positions that suit them perfectly. This is simply an important place of the Renaissance. "Do you like it here?" the waiter asked.
"It's quite livable here." Li Xiao said with a smile. Although this town seems to lack the spark of the new era, it has naturally integrated ancient lifestyles and modern technology.
Walking by the flower beds in the center of the town, passers-by wear all kinds of clothes and feel the simplicity and simplicity. This town is not only beautiful, it also has vicissitudes, and those rich histories are embedded in the walls of the buildings.
.However, Li Xiao still likes this feeling very much. He feels that the small town gives him the power to divert his attention, and even allows him to forget the fatigue caused by busyness and hustle and bustle.
He saw a painter painting in mid-air, with a drawing board, a bucket of paint and several pens placed in front of him. At this moment, an old woman slowly walked into the painter's side, speaking in a relaxed and gentle voice.
"Hello, dear, I would like to buy this piece of art you painted."
"Ah, thank you very much!" The painter was very happy. "This painting interprets my emotions and strength. It can be called a work of art in the true sense."
Li Xiao suddenly thought that every piece of art comes from the artist's mind and is a true and unique way of expression. And this town also gives everyone the opportunity to create and show their talents.
"This place is really beautiful!" Li Xiao exclaimed.
"Yes, the scenery here is the pride of Taiyuan, attracting countless tourists every year." The vendor replied.
Li Xiao walked through the ancient town for a while, and saw a quaint small restaurant, and decided to try the local food here. After he went in, Li Xiao ordered the meal, looked around, and found that most of the other diners here were tourists, and occasionally there were
Some local residents came here to taste the food. The atmosphere in the store was very warm, and everyone was chatting and exchanging travel experiences and cultural backgrounds while enjoying the food.
After a while, the waiter brought a hot piece of flat food. The skin of the flat food was thin and delicious. It was filled with meat fillings and vegetables and had an excellent taste. Li Xiao took a bite and immediately felt that this was something he had eaten in Taiyuan.
The best food I've ever had.
The waiter came over and asked: "Sir, how does this flat food taste?"
"It's very delicious. It's one of the best foods I've eaten in Taiyuan." Li Xiao replied with praise.
"Thank you for the compliment. Our flat food here is made using traditional hand-made methods. Every link is very exquisite, so it tastes great." The waiter proudly introduced.
After hearing this, Li Xiao felt even more about the history and cultural heritage of the city of Taiyuan. He couldn't help but think that perhaps it was this historical heritage and cultural heritage that gave this city such unique food and landscape.
After Li Xiao finished his meal, he paid the bill and walked out of the restaurant, and started his trip to Taiyuan again.
“The Bianshi here is really delicious!” Li Xiao exclaimed.
"Yes, the flat food here is one of Taiyuan's traditional delicacies and is very popular with tourists." The waiter replied.
After Li Xiao finished his meal, he continued to tour the ancient town and saw many interesting scenes, such as exquisite ancient streets, ancient ancestral halls, clever waterways, etc. In an antique shop, he saw an exquisite antique tea set

"This is an official kiln tea set from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. It uses traditional kiln glaze color changing technology and is purely handmade. It is very precious. It is rare to see such complete antiques nowadays, and they are valuable." said the shop owner.
After listening to the shop owner's introduction, Li Xiao was even more excited, but hesitant. After all, this antique tea set was expensive, and he needed to weigh it carefully.
At this time, an old gentleman walked into the store, saw Li Xiao's hesitation, and took the initiative to talk to him.
"Young man, are you looking at this antique tea set?" the old gentleman asked.
Li Xiao nodded, and the old man smiled and said: "This tea set is very exquisite, but you should be careful when buying antiques, because it not only represents value, but more importantly, it is the inheritance of history and culture. You have to consider carefully whether you

He learned more about antique culture and history, and his understanding of antiques became deeper.
"Thank you for your guidance, I will consider it carefully." Li Xiao said to the old gentleman.
The old gentleman smiled and nodded, and said to Li Xiao: "I hope you can remember that antiques are witnesses of history and carriers of culture, and they need to be cherished and passed on."
After leaving the antique shop, Li Xiao walked on the streets of the ancient town, still thinking about the old gentleman's words. He realized that he needed to have a deeper understanding of Chinese history and culture in order to better protect and inherit them.
Throughout the afternoon, Li Xiao visited the ancient town, immersed in the atmosphere of history and culture, and felt the ancient and long history of China. The afternoon gradually passed, and the sky gradually darkened. Li Xiao walked out of the ancient town still unfinished, still immersed in the

Li Xiao asked in surprise: "Moon? It's so late, hasn't the moon come out yet?"
The old gentleman smiled, pointed to the sky, and said, "Look, isn't that the moon? It is rising slowly."
Li Xiao took a closer look, and sure enough, in the east of the sky, a bright moon was rising slowly, emitting a soft light, adding a mysterious color to the ancient town at night.
