On the yue lai zhen, everything is quiet and peaceful. People are playing Changchuan cards in the lazy afternoon sunshine, sitting in a small tea shop at the bridge and drinking a bowl of scented tea at 3 cents. Time seems to stop here, and the excitement and noise in the eyes are just illusory.
Yuejia Town is small, only four blocks away. Ancient buildings are mainly concentrated in Yuelaizheng Street and Heba Street, which are basically the architectural styles of small towns in western Sichuan from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China. There are many houses that combine Chinese and western architectural elements, which makes Yuelai Ancient Town different from other ancient towns.
the scenery in the town is simple. In the lower section of Yuelai Main Street, you will see a row of old and low walls. According to local people, this is the former site of the famous "Chuangong". Besides, No.39 in this street is worth seeing. Che Yaoxian, a revolutionary martyr, once lived here, but he was the founder of an old shop.

Zhou Wang is a delicious local place. The blood sausage in the shop is not only delicious but also full of weight. If a family goes to eat, it will cost tens of dollars to eat comfortably. In addition, my husband has a shop called "meat tofu pudding" by the roadside. This bean curd, a famous dish in southern Sichuan, is better interpreted in the ancient town. It is made of minced meat and tofu pudding. It tastes like meat and smells like tofu pudding. Refreshing and oily, long and delicious.

The buildings on both sides have also recovered their original colors and are antique.
Huanglongxi ancient town, with buildings in Ming and Qing dynasties everywhere, has been well preserved so far. Red paved streets, pavilions with wooden columns and green tiles, beautifully carved railings and windows all give people a sense of ancient simplicity and tranquility. There are also six big banyan trees in the town, all of which are over a thousand years old. They are flourishing, covering the sky, vigorous and heavy, adding a lot of aura to the ancient town.

Stone mill tofu in the ancient town is very famous. Almost every family can do it, but each has its own characteristics. Walking through a street, I saw another alley, with bare bluestone road, shiny black door panels and antique signs at my feet, revealing a strong ancient style.
In the ancient town, the most distinctive feature is its teahouse, along the roadside, on the river bank, under the bamboo forest, bamboo stands, chairs and stools, and colorful sun umbrellas, which have become an attractive landscape in the ancient town. A bowl of tea costs two or three yuan, and you can sit for a day, especially for the elderly. Walking the birds and drinking tea in the restaurant in the morning is not expensive, but it is a leisurely and elegant enjoyment.

There are more than 3 streets, of which more than 1 are well preserved, including Xiaobei Street, Nanjie Street, Xiaxin Street, Zhengxi Street and Linjiang Street. The vast majority of buildings are built according to the rules of the Ministry of Industry in Qing Dynasty, and most of them are wood structures. Street pillars, front hall and backyard, the combination of corridors and buildings, and the approach of quadrangles are the basic features of Huaiyuan ancient town, but its specific streets and lanes have many different characteristics.
More than p>2 criss-crossing streets and alleys are full of silk shops, tea shops, bamboo weaving shops, oil mills and pharmacies. This town is very busy in a single day's market. Huaiyuan's most famous "three weaves": rattan weave, brown weave and bamboo weave. Almost every family has skilled craftsmen, as well as rattan, brown and bamboo.
In huaiyuan town, we can not only see the complete wooden pavement of houses with Doby structure (there are no nails or glue at the joints! The bright part of the roof is called "bright tile", which is a kind of glass with the same shape as tile and used for indoor lighting. According to the data, most of the buildings here were built in the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China), and many buildings of that year are faintly visible, such as architectural decorations such as gates and wood carvings, and even a very clear slogan "Quotations from Chairman Mao" (it should be at least 25 years old)!
Walking into a small street by the river, an ancient courtyard appeared in front of you, with the words "Lin's Ancestral Hall" written on the mottled wall. (Picture) This is an ancestral temple built in Xianfeng period of Qing Dynasty. Entering the main entrance, the spacious quadrangle was busy, and dozens of old people gathered here to play cards and set up a dragon gate array.

Wu Jianying, a staff member of Huaiyuan Ancient Town, said that the main building of this ancestral hall has been well preserved so far, and the unique brand of pure Nanmu ancestral hall in the city has been completely preserved.

Tofu curtain is fresh, delicious and nutritious. Frozen cakes have a history of more than 2 years in Huaiyuan. Authentic parfait is naturally fermented with rice pulp and refined with lard. The entrance turned into slag, and the fragrance was overflowing. Ye's history can be traced back to the Western Jin Dynasty, and its predecessor was a well-known "vegetable whip". Today, there are more than 1 famous snack bars in Huaiyuan, mainly Ye, on the bustling street about 5 meters above Wenjing Road. I recommend the old-fashioned "Miss Huang" Ye Ba 'er opposite the bus stop. The fresh fragrance of grapefruit leaves makes people drool when they think about it. Small hotel in town, 1 yuan/person.
