Once a sleepy riverside village, Xingping village has now grown into Xing Ping Town and the old centre of Hing Ping can be easily explored in about an hour. Xingping is steeped in history, with many buildings dating back to the Ming and Qing dynasties. The town comes alive on local market days when the town becomes very busy with locals from surrounding villages coming to buy and sell their produce. Restaurants and cafes sell local specialities, beer fish and local handicrafts from very cheap handmade jewellery. In addition, the scenery around Xingping is spectacular and you can see the scenery immortalised on the 20 RMB.
