The Tianhe Baiwei Building Plaza in ancient Dayangquan villlage, located in Yangquan city in North China's Shanxi province, recently opened its doors to the public for business.

Once an old market in the village,  the 4,000-square-meter plaza features the essence of local residential culture and folk customs in a commercial venue that integrates catering, cultural and historical experiences. 

After six months of renovation, there are more than 60 stores in the plaza, which will generate an estimated annual operating income of more than 50 million yuan ($7.62 million).
