Langya Ancient City
琅琊古城
A period-style cultural and tourism district in urban Linyi, where lights, performances and street food come alive at night, making it a popular night-out spot.
Langya Ancient City lies on the east bank of the Yi River in Hedong District, Linyi. Built around the culture of the ancient Langya Commandery, it features reconstructed city gates, a water street, performance theatres and many food stalls. It is busiest after the lights come on at night, and festivals and holidays often bring lantern shows and performances. Entry is free, though some attractions charge admission, so check the scenic area's announcements. Go before dusk and allow 2–3 hours. While you are there, try Linyi specialities such as Linyi stir-fried chicken, shentang (a thick, porridge-like soup) and jianbing (Chinese savoury crêpes).
Opening hours
About 10:00 am–10:30 pm
