Scenic spot introduction:

Shiquan was once the political, economic and cultural center of Shiquan, and was known as the "Golden State with a Visionary Vision" and the "Beauty of the Xijiang River". Because there are many springs in the stone gaps in the county, the water is clear and the runoff is endless, so it was renamed Shiquan to this day. The county has the best-preserved ancient streets of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in southern Shaanxi. Today, the east and west city gates have been restored as before, and there are many shops on the ancient streets paved with bluestones. The charm of the Yuwang Palace and the Jiangxi Guild Hall, which have stood for thousands of years, still exist; In the alley, the antique towers, the horse head wall with cornices and the courtyards with blue bricks and black tiles are glowing with the glory of the past.
