1: Huanglongxi

Huanglongxi, an ancient town in western Sichuan with a history of more than 1,711 years, is located in Shuangliu County, about 31 kilometers southeast of Chengdu.

In the ancient town of Huanglongxi, buildings from the Ming and Qing Dynasties abound and are still well preserved. The streets paved with bluestone slabs, pavilions and houses with wooden columns and blue tiles, and beautifully carved railings and windows all give people a feeling of simplicity and tranquility. There are also six big banyan trees in the town, all of which are more than a thousand years old. They are luxuriant and cover the sky, which adds a lot of aura to the ancient town. There are still three ancient temples, Zhenjiang Temple, Chaoyin Temple and Gulong Temple, which are deep and winding in the town. There are many small restaurants on both sides of the street, and most of them have a white wine flag on a blue background in front of the door, such as "Yuxiangzi", "Lvhuitou" and "Tangsu Store", which are dancing in the wind to attract guests. The stone mill tofu pudding in the ancient town is very famous, and almost every family can make it, but each has its own characteristics. Walking through a street, I saw another lane, with bare bluestone road at the foot, shiny black door panels and antique signs, which were full of ancient meaning.

In the ancient town, the most distinctive feature is its teahouse, with bamboo stands, chairs, stools and colorful umbrellas on both sides of the road, on the riverbank and under the bamboo forest, which have become an attractive scenery in the ancient town. A bowl of tea costs two or three dollars, and you can sit for a day, especially for the old people. It is a leisurely and elegant enjoyment to walk birds and drink tea in a restaurant in the morning of Qing Dynasty, which costs little money.

Every year from the first day of the first month to the fifteenth day of the New Year, Huanglongxi will also hold entertainment activities such as playing with fire dragons and water dragons.

Travel information

Transportation: There is a shuttle bus to Huanglongxi from Chengdu Xinnanmen Bus Station from 8: 11 to 16: 11, with 8 yuan/person every 1 hours; Hongpailou leaves every half hour. 7 yuan/person

When you are full of food and wine, you can just go ashore for sightseeing when you arrive at the Buddha Temple, and the boatman will wait on the shore and return to the ancient town by boat two hours later.

staying in the town for one night ranges from 15 yuan to 41 yuan/person, and you can usually send it back to Chengdu on the same day when you visit Huanglongxi.

2: Yuelai Ancient Town

Yuelai Ancient Town, located in Heming Township, Dayi County, is the main throat leading to Xiling Snow Mountain and Huashuiwan Hot Spring. Yuelai is a typical ancient town in western Sichuan. On the yue lai zhen, everything is quiet and harmonious. People are playing long Sichuan cards in the lazy afternoon sun, sitting in a small tea shop at the bridge, drinking a bowl of scented tea with three cents. Time seems to have stopped, and the excitement and noise in their eyes are only illusory.

The ancient town of Yuelai is small, with only four streets. The ancient buildings are mainly concentrated in Yuelaizheng Street and Heba Street, which are basically the architectural styles of western Sichuan towns from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China. There are many houses with the integration of Chinese and western architectural style elements, which is the special feature of Yuelai ancient town from other ancient towns.

the scenery in the town is very simple. In the lower section of Yuelaizheng Street, you will see a row of old and low walls. According to local people, this is the famous former site of "Chuan Palace". In addition, No.319 in this street is worth seeing. Che Yaoxian, a revolutionary martyr, once lived here. He is the founder of the old Chengdu restaurant "Nuli Meal". There is a small temple in the middle of Heba Street, which is called "Zhangda Confucius Temple" by local people. The legend is to commemorate the local good people who rebuilt this street and house. At the end of Heba Street is an iron lock bridge of Helin Bridge built in 1921, which is covered with wooden boards. Walking on it is still a feeling of trembling.

Things in the town are sold very cheaply. Xinchang Town is right in the bird's beak part of the street, where two roads cross. Go straight over Sunjiapo to Xiling Snow Mountain, and take another road to cross Hengzi Mountain to reach huaiyuan town in Chongzhou.

When a family goes to eat, they can eat comfortably for tens of yuan. In addition, there is a shop called "Meat Bean Flower" beside my husband's road. This tofu pudding, which was originally a famous dish in southern Sichuan, was interpreted to be more delicious in the ancient town. It was cooked with chopped minced meat and tofu pudding. It tasted like meat wrapped in the delicate fragrance of tofu pudding, refreshing, oily and long, and delicious.

Today, most of the old houses in Jiezichang are relics left over from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. For sightseeing, the editor suggested that you go to Yulong Bridge. There are more than ten tall ginkgo trees standing luxuriantly beside the dam at the entrance of the street. Next to the ginkgo tree, there is a red tower built in the late Qing Dynasty, which is fine in workmanship. Whenever the mountain wind blows, the small copper bell on the tower will make a pleasant sound. The ancients called this tower a "font library".

Jiezichang is a place full of seclusion legends. According to the General History of China, Zhu Yunwen, the son of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, had disappeared mysteriously in history.

The ancient town is surrounded by mountains and waters, with idyllic hills, wooden houses as homes, stone paved streets, and 18 hills of "eighteen arhats facing Guanyin". Eight ancient stone bridges represented by "Erxian Bridge" have a long history and different styles.

The first thing you see when you arrive in Shanghai is a memorial archway of "Double Filial Piety Festival" built in Daoguang in 2119. The archway is a four-column, three-eaves and multi-ridge stone carving workshop, which is tall and fine; There are also more than 21 groups of stories of more than 111 dramatic characters engraved on the beam. The memorial archway is a relic of feudal etiquette, which was established at that time to promote Han's "never losing his virginity or changing his driving, and honoring his parents and in-laws for life". The stone archway, which was built by Yang Han's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for two generations, is a testimony of the feudal system in China that binds women and is also a fine stone carving art in China. At present, there are still three stone archways in the town, namely, the provincial-level protection unit "Double Filial Piety" stone archway, as well as the municipal-level cultural protection units Chen's "Ninth Cohabitation" and Chen's "Chastity" archway.

Among them, the most beautiful shape is the "Erxian Bridge" built in the 41 years of Qianlong in Ming and Qing Dynasties, which is a stone arch bridge with the characteristics of Jiangnan water town. The clear river is like a high, round bridge opening, so don't have a love affair. There are also two stone bridges with one high and one bottom across the Longxi River at the mouth of the town, which have become the traffic arteries in and out of the town. Gao Qiao can turn from the low bridge to the inverted river under the Gao Qiao through the vehicles and pedestrians in and out of the town, and the high and low bridges are cleverly enough to become an "interchange" system.

There are exquisite architectural complexes in Shangli, and the most famous one is the Han Family Courtyard. The doors, windows, eaves and eaves of the whole building are decorated with reliefs, hollowed-out carvings and inlaid carvings, which have extremely high value and exquisite craftsmanship.

The whole building consists of seven quadrangles, also known as "seven stars holding the moon". The layout of the courtyard is clear, and exquisite wood carvings can be seen everywhere. It is worth mentioning that the wooden windows of the compound are finely carved, rich in content and diverse in shape, which are highly praised by experts.
