Taiyuan day four

I had been told that the was a nice old town an hours bus ride and making my excuses from them left on my own. I was the last bus stop so I couldn't really go wrong! When I got to the bus it was packed, so full of people they really couldn't fit any more people into the bus! I was standing in the doorway! 

The bus ride was cool through some very poor scenery to a place two towns over and once there, as it was winter, there was no entry ticket! I walked around the old town and it was cool, once you go out of the central square lots was yet to be renovated, and so actually semi original, or at least more than 10 years old! 

I also ate a local snack of candied strawberries on a stick, and some other fruit they recommended but I have no idea what was! 

I took lots of pictures and found a huge square all locked off and unused with weeds growing it, I really wanted to get in but couldn't get in! Damn it! So after an hour or two I wandered back to the bus stop.

After the bus ride back I went back to the tasty man coffee shop for a cup of coffee before back to the hotel.
