About Pingyao County Ya Pingyao County Ya is located in the center of Pingyao ancient city. Founded in the Northern Wei Dynasty, it was finalized in the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. The earliest preserved building was in the sixth year of Yuan Dynasty (1346), with a history of more than 600 years.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Pingyao was divided into 10 squares in the city, 30 miles in the countryside, 224 administrative villages and 55 natural villages. During the reign of Emperor Kangxi in Qing Dynasty, the county had a total land of 1.0 1.6427 mu and a total population of 1.04822 people, including 6,465,438 taels of silver and 7,882 taels of Ding Yin.

In the past, people thought that ghosts would visit the house constantly and build a wall to block the path of ghosts.

Another view is that Zhaobi is a unique architectural form in China influenced by Feng Shui consciousness, also known as Shadow Wall or Shadow Wall.
