Taiyuan

As the capital city of Shanxi Province, Taiyuan has a 2500-year history and in ancient times it was an important military town. Vast expanse of relics, old memories merging into fragrant Fen White wine, give Taiyuan the colorful expression.

Now Taiyuan is one of China's heavy industrial cities and accounts for more than half the national coal mining output. Taiyuan benefits from convenient public transport systems as the city is the provincial transportation hub. It also has a wealth of tourist attractions and notably among these is the Jinci Temple. This is the city's most attractive temple although the Shuangta Si (Twin-Pagoda Temple) has become a symbol of Taiyuan on account of its unique architecture. Another major attraction is the Tianlong Shan Stone Caves where magnificent sculptures dating from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) may be seen.
