Tangqi Ancient Town, Hangzhou: Experience the charm of paradise on earth.

Tangqi Ancient Town, located in the north of Hangzhou, is a water town with a history of thousands of years. Although it is not as famous as Wuzhen and Xitang, it has its own unique charm, which allows people to deeply feel the charm of paradise on earth. Upon entering the ancient town, the first thing that comes into view is the majestic Guangji Bridge. This ancient bridge spans the canal, and the traces of the years have left mottled marks on it. The river under the bridge flows slowly, as if telling an ancient story. Walking along the bluestone road, the shops on the street are full of everything. There are traditional pastry shops, freshly baked rice and meat balls are steaming, exuding a tempting aroma; there are handmade sugar paintings, the artist skillfully manipulates the spoon in his hand, and in a while, a lifelike pattern is presented; there are also various special snacks, which make tourists linger. The architecture of the ancient town retains the style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, with white walls and black tiles, and flying eaves. Those ancient houses are built by the water, and when you open the window, you can see the ships coming and going on the river. The corridor by the river is a good place for residents to rest and chat. In the summer evening, sitting here, blowing the breeze, listening to the old man telling the past, feeling the tranquility and peace. In Tangqi Ancient Town, time seems to slow down. People can make a pot of tea in the teahouse and taste it carefully; they can order a few dishes in a small tavern and have a drink with friends; they can also walk into a bookstore and find a moment of tranquility in the sea of books. There is no hustle and bustle of the city, only the most true appearance of life. When night falls, the lights of the ancient town gradually light up, outlining a beautiful night scene. At this time, Tangqi Ancient Town has a different flavor, which makes people intoxicated and unwilling to leave. Tangqi Ancient Town is such a place full of fireworks. It welcomes everyone who comes to find spiritual comfort with its simplicity, tranquility and warmth. ---
