From Zhang Xiang, in Taiyuan, North China's Shanxi province.

Shanxi is believed as the cradle of the Chinese civilization. The Xia Dynasty (2070 -1600 BC), the first dynasty of the Chinese slave society, was founded in the southern part of Shanxi.

From aged city walls to Ming dynasty-era buildings, Pingyao and its surrounding scenic areas provide a glimpse into China's past. What makes Pingyao special is its intact city wall that runs approximately six kilometers.

Another special product of Shanxi is vinegar. The vinegar is brewed from sorghum at a high temperature and, after more than a year of fermentation, the water is evaporated by the sun in summer and ice in winter, to produce its fragrance and density.
