Travel Notes of Taigu|||Taigu Travel

|||Taigu Travel. Sixty miles south from Taiyuan lies the Taigu District in the center of Shanxi. Wandering through the ancient streets, one's eyes are greeted by old houses, old mansions, and old courtyards, while the mottled and aged walls seem to tell of past prosperity. The old residence of Kong Xiangxi, the Minister of Finance during the Republic of China, the White Pagoda of the Wubian Monastery built during the Western Jin Dynasty (272 AD), the Ming Dynasty Drum Tower... all bear witness to the scenes of bygone days.
