    The content you see above is what I've written about Xinmi Xianya in 2012, and back then, Xinmi Xianya was the same appearance and the government didn't pay much attention on the repair of the old houses and palaces in Xinmi Xianya.

    But now, things changed, the government started the repair of Xinmi Xinya and the new Xinmi Xianya was open to public at the beginning of last year, you can see a lot more interesting spots in Xinmi Xianya right now if you come here.

    And you will certainly have a good chance to have a look at the famous Xianya Jail, which has been there for thousands of years.
