平遥县衙
Pingyao County Government Office
Pingyao County Government retains the spatial logic of traditional local government: ceremonial gates and courtyards lead to the trial and administrative halls, with clerical, residential and prison areas at the rear. The building separates public power, official work and private life. Exhibitions are helpful for understanding the system, but the restored scenes should be read in conjunction with the real pattern.

Opening hours
Confirmed opening hours are not available on this page. Check opening and last-entry times with the venue before setting out.
Getting there
It can be reached from the pedestrian street near the market building to the south. The courtyard is quite large, so it is not appropriate to arrange it during the last period before admission to the joint-ticket attractions closes.
Practical notes
Time should be set aside for multiple entrances to the courtyard and exhibitions. The steps in some rooms are narrow and the visit flow needs to be followed; performance times and museum openings should be confirmed separately.
