Qibao Ancient Town

Qibao Ancient Town is located in Minhang District, Shanghai, about three kilometers south of Hongqiao Airport. Qibao is named after Qibao Temple, which is located in the north of Qibao Puhuitang. It is said that the flying Buddha, the bell, the golden rooster, the jade chopsticks, the yu fu, the catalpa tree and the golden lotus are named after seven treasures. Qibao Ancient Town is an ancient water town in Shanghai after Zhujiajiao.

Qibao, an ancient town, has become another choice for Shanghainese to travel to water towns after Zhouzhuang, Xitang and Zhujiajiao. Superior geographical location and low cost have made Qibao more famous. Take advantage of the popularity, plus Qibao Food Street, which has long been famous. My trip to Qibao Ancient Town was able to take place on a sunny weekend. Qibao is located in Minhang District, Shanghai, and it only takes more than 1 hours to reach its destination. When I got off the bus, I saw the bright red Chinese knot in the central square of Qibao Town, which was really beaming. The oncoming warm wind has the fragrance of long grass, and it is warm and thick, and the breath of spring seems to be getting closer and closer to us. After crossing a new street full of modern flavor, the old street appeared in front of our eyes. There is an ancient bell tower at her entrance, and there are many restored buildings such as diaojiao building, arched building, stage, time-honored brand and celebrity memorial hall. Puhuitang, a small river, traverses the old street, and Kangle Bridge, Puhuitang Bridge and Anping Bridge are adjacent to the pond. Among them, Puhuitang Bridge, also known as Qibaotang Bridge, has a history of several hundred years. Guzhen Old Street also sells souvenirs with Jiangnan characteristics. Whether it is exquisite Suzhou embroidery, freehand landscape painting, small wooden household ornaments or small brass bells, you can find them in the old street. It's especially recommended to take a photo of a photo, so it's only in 5 yuan/set, which is far cheaper than the urban area. The ancient town also has a big feature-puppet show. When there is a certain audience, the middle-aged male artists will knock on the gong and shout. The male artists will put on special props for the performance, make feet with their hands, and each person will decorate two corners. The puppet show "Two Wrestling" will be staged wonderfully.
