1. Zhongshan Ancient Town is located in Jiangjin County, Chongqing, and is one of the top ten ancient towns in Chongqing. The ancient town is built by the river, which is very similar to the style of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, but it has formed a narrow old lane that is three kilometers long. Both sides are dominated by Qing Dynasty buildings, which are well preserved. The bluestone road on the ground gives people an ancient and harmonious feeling. There are 209 families living in the ancient town, and traditional folk commercial formats such as blacksmith shop, Chinese medicine shop and barber shop still exist. Walking through the old streets paved with indigo stones, walking through the winding stone steps and alleys of Catherine, the wind across the fields is filled with the fragrance of herbs from time to time. The splash of fire in the blacksmith's shop is in harmony with the tinkling of iron, which has an artistic atmosphere without carving, while the white-haired old man with shaved head under the eaves of the street is leisurely, just like an oil painting, reflecting the unique picture of the ancient town living and working in peace and contentment.
2. Yongchuan Songshui Ancient Town is located in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, with a long history and profound cultural heritage. It has well preserved the longest ancient street in Chongqing with a total length of more than 5,000 meters, including majestic carved buildings, diaojiao buildings built by mountains, ancient quadrangles, ancient county government as a symbol of power, and ancestral temples and temples represented by Luojia Ancestral Hall, Dongyue Temple and Qingliu Temple. The ancestral temple culture and traditional food attract tourists most in Songshui, an ancient town. Ancestral halls and temples in Songshui are called "Nine Palaces and Eighteen Temples" and "Ancestral Hall Museum". Such as Wenchang Palace, Zhangjia Ancestral Hall and Jiafan Ancestral Hall. Among them, the architecture and sculpture of Luojia Ancestral Hall, which was built during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, are unique, well-preserved and repaired. Up to now, it still retains the "Family Law Monument" given by the Ming Emperor and the inscription of "Luofu Temple" in the case of Fu Ba, Gan Long. The traditional cuisine of Songshui ancient town is most famous for its "Yangtze River Songshui Fish" and "Nine Bowls" praised by Song Meiling during his stay in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, as well as the salted cabbage with loose water, the unique "fried rice sugar" with loose water, the healthy vinegar brewed with pure grain, and the folk delicacies "roasted sweet potato", "hat head" and Ciba.
3. Laitan Ancient Town is located on Jiufeng Mountain, 32km east of Hechuan, Chongqing, surrounded by Qujiang River, integrating ancient temples, ancient cities and ancient buddhas with beautiful scenery. Laitan ancient town has a long history and became a town in the Song Dynasty. The ancient town is close to Qujiang, with beautiful natural scenery, scattered dwellings in Ming and Qing Dynasties, simple and elegant old streets and alleys, and the urn built in Qing Dynasty is now well preserved, and it is the only one in Chongqing. The ancient town of Laitan is divided into an entrance and an exit. The entrance and the exit are close at hand, just like brothers and sisters, one is high and one is low, one is up and down, one is rigid and one is soft, and they take care of each other. The ancient village still preserves the characteristics of ancient castles, including narrow and winding stone streets and alleys of appropriate scale, as well as more than 400 houses in the Qing Dynasty. Small blue tile houses with patchwork but wooden structure have basically maintained the original features of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, simple and elegant, giving people a feeling of returning to nature and stepping into a quiet mountain city.
