The old city of Pingyao is in the centre of Shanxi Province, China. It has a history of more than 2,700 years. Since 1997, Pingyao City has been a world cultural heritage site (世界文化遗产地), and it is the only old city in China as in good condition as it was hundreds of years ago.
There are several gates in the city, two each in the east and west, one each in the south and north. All the gates have two doors each. This made the city get the name of “Turtle City”, with the southern gate as the head and the northern gate as the tail of the turtle, the four gates in the west and east standing for the four legs, and the four major streets, eight small streets and 72 lanes as the back of the turtle. In the past, a turtle meant long life and peace.
With Pingyao’s special location—on the trade road between Beijing and Xi’an, the local people set up the nation’s earliest banks. As a result, it made Pingyao become a trade centre. Those banks were the first to use checks (支票) in China.
However, these years most old yards have been turned into museums. They were homes and offices of Pingyao’s old banks before. If you have paid a visit to Pingyao, you may have realised how important Pingyao was to China’s financial (金融的) history.
