Deep in Taihang Mountain, Yingtan village is located in Xingtai, North China's Hebei province. It has a history of more than 600 years. There are 67 well-preserved ancient houses with distinctive architectural style of Taihang during the Ming and Qing dynasties.

In recent years, the local people have combined the construction of beautiful villages with the protection of ancient villages, carried out scientific restoration of ancient villages, and developed folk tourism based on the profound historical and cultural deposits of the local people, effectively driving the development of the whole village.
