When is a good time to visit Pingyao ancient city?

Suitable for all seasons, but in Pingyao ancient city, autumn is the most comfortable climate, and September is the golden season. In addition, you can also see local festivals when you rush to Pingyao for major traditional festivals, so it is a good choice to go in winter. At the end of September, Pingyao will hold a photography festival with a lively scene. Although it is cold in winter, there are few tourists, and you can also enjoy the folk social fire performance and the beautiful scenery of the ancient city under the snow.
