Guqi County has a long history and profound cultural heritage. "The hometown of civilization is in Jinzhong, and the culture of Shanxi merchants is in Qixian." As early as 3,600 years ago, it was the fief of Dr. Huang Yang Qi Xi, and the existing site of ancient civilization in Liangcun became the earliest historical symbol of human activities in Qixian County, Jinzhong.

The Qujia Courtyard in Qixian County was built during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, with a history of more than 600 years. The overall architectural style, plastic arts and sculpture decoration fully reflect the local characteristics of the Central Plains, ranking first among the three ancient courtyards in China, and Jinzhong is the largest existing ancient architectural complex in Ming and Qing Dynasties. The cultural exhibition of Shanxi merchants held during the Spring Festival every year is very lively, and activities such as Jin Opera, Qitai Yangko, carrying poles, carrying sticks, juggling performances, paper-cutting and folk arts and crafts display attract a large number of tourists to the temple fair. Qixian county has become an important window to show Jinzhong folk culture. The Qiao Family Courtyard, which keeps pace with Qu Family Courtyard, was built during the reign of Emperor Yongping of the Eastern Han Dynasty. During the festival every year, tourists are very busy and lively.

After the founding of New China, the government carried out many repairs to the compound. Now, the ancient buildings there are solemn and elegant, with lush flowers and trees and beautiful environment, which is a beautiful historical and cultural landscape in Jinzhong. In the 1990s, the Qujia Courtyard was opened to the public. Usually, there are various folk art exhibitions in the yard. There are also folk art activities such as kneading dough, blowing candied haws, paper-cutting, clay sculpture piling, opera and acrobatics on holidays. Wonderful folk art attracts a large number of foreign tourists. Qujia Courtyard has now become a folk museum-style tourist attraction and a good place for Jinzhong citizens to relax and entertain.

We should take action now to protect and publicize the historical and cultural heritage, let more foreign tourists know about the history and culture of Qixian, and let the history of Qixian, Shanxi and China go global.
