In Henan, there are several ancient towns, which are different from the mystery of Xiangxi and the gentleness of Jiangnan, but they are better than the simplicity of nature. They have not been carved by the world and have been baptized for thousands of years.
jingziguan town
Jingziguan Town is located on the right bank of Danjiang River in Xichuan County, Nanyang City. Because it is located at the junction of Henan, Hubei and Shaanxi provinces, it has the reputation of "Jingziguan in three provinces of Ji Ming", which has a history of more than 2,000 years.
In the ancient town, whether it is the palace praying for peace, the Shanshan Hall built in the light years of the Qing Dynasty, the Yu Palace specially built in Yu Wang, which has made great contributions to water control, the mosque built in the Ming Dynasty, the fahai temple named after the infinite meaning of Buddhism, the natural Luohan Cave in Qinglong Mountain, or the three provincial monuments located in Bailang Street at the entrance of Jingziguan, all witnessed the changes of this ancient town and revealed the vast atmosphere of this hot land.
But it is such a piece of land, but it is little known and there are almost no tourists. Jingziguan Town is like a chivalrous man living in seclusion in the city, maintaining his unique simplicity and elegance, but people who come to this land by chance admire him deeply.
