An ancient street that you can't get enough of in one visit

The Bell Tower Street is named after the ancient bell tower. The Taiyuan Bell Tower, built during the Ming Dynasty, was extensively renovated in the mid-Ming period under the advocacy of Fu Shan's grandfather, Fu Lin. Bell Tower Street, combined with Da Zhong Market and Kai Hua Temple Street, forms the layout of Bell Tower Street, which was the commodity distribution center of Taiyuan City before the year 2000.
