Explore the Treasures of Southern Sichuan||A living ancient town from the Ming and Qing dynasties

||A living ancient town from the Ming and Qing dynasties.📝 This place originated in the Northern Song Dynasty and began to thrive as a commercial town during the Yongle era of the Ming Dynasty. Since then, it has become a major trading town in the southern Sichuan area, serving as a transit point between Sichuan's Luzhou and Guizhou's Chishui, and a necessary pass through the 'Sichuan-Guizhou Corridor'. Its prosperity at the time has left behind many historical sites and buildings: the Wang Dynasty's former residence, Dongyue Temple, the oil paper umbrella shop, Dahong Rice Shop, Zhou Mansion... 🔸 The ancient town's architecture is mostly in the style of southern Sichuan courtyard houses, with blue-tiled houses stretching along the more than 1000 meters of the ancient street, arranged in a strip layout. It just so happened to be a rainy day☔, with fewer tourists strolling the streets. Taking this opportunity to walk slowly along the old street, the traces of the years are visible on the bluestone pavement, and the residential shops on both sides seem to tell their own stories and history, experiencing all these cultural and historical treasures, truly a living fossil of Ming and Qing architecture‼️ 🔸 Today, although it no longer has the hustle and bustle of the past, the people living here enjoy a peaceful and tranquil life 📍Location| Yaoba Ancient Town, Hejiang County, Luzhou City, Sichuan Province 🚘Transportation| Just follow the navigation, the scenic area is convenient for parking 🏩Accommodation| It is recommended to stay at Yaoba Post next to the ancient town, which is a newly built imitation ancient commercial street with well-equipped hotels and inns 🎫Ticket| Free 🥘Cuisine| The most famous red soup mutton is not to be missed, as well as handmade yellow rice cakes, sweet potato silk candy, tender tofu pudding, and other southern Sichuan delicacies, which are tasty and reasonably priced ⌛️Travel Tips| After visiting, you can go to the nearby Fawang Temple for a visit
