Datong's cuisine, much like its history, is rich and bold, combining sour, spicy, and savory flavors, blending Central Plains cooking with nomadic traditions. If you visit Datong to see the Yungang Grottoes, the Hanging Temple, and other attractions, be sure to sample the local dishes. Try the signature knife-cut noodles at Xijindao Noodle House, the classic lamb soup at Zheng Shifu Lamb Soup Shop, the local Hunyuan Bean Jelly, and the soft, sticky huang gao (yellow cake) and beautifully crafted Flower-Shaped Shaomai (steamed dumplings) at Longjuxiang Shaomai Restaurant. There's something for every palate!
