“深山里的布达拉宫”-山西省阳泉市盂县大汖古村 | Dachang village, a 1500-year-old Hidden Gem in Mount Taihang in Shanxi

The Dachang village, Yu county, Shanxi province. The village was built along the hillside that represents a special vertical vernacular architectural feature. Time has left some of the buildings damaged and in bad repair, yet the local traditions and cultures have been preserved.

Located in the depths of the Taihang Mountains, Dachang village is the oldest remaining village in Yuxian county, Yangquan city, in North China's Shanxi province -- with a history dating back to the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534).

There are three waterfalls at the entrance of Dachang village, whose name dachang means waterfalls in Chinese.
