Shaxi Ancient Town | A Place with Wind - A Peaceful Belonging

Nestled among the mountains of Dali, there is a place that seems forgotten by time - Shaxi Ancient Town. Here, there are no bustling traffic or neon lights, only the sediment of time and the footprints of the ancient Tea Horse Road. Upon arriving in Shaxi, I was immediately captivated by the tranquility of the ancient town. The cobblestone streets glimmered in the morning light, and the old theater and the square recorded the stories of this land. In the teahouse at the corner, the owner leisurely brewed Pu'er tea, and the aroma wafted with the wind, as if the air itself was infused with a sense of calm. Sitting in the courtyard of an inn, with a pot of tea and a book, time seemed to slow down. Before me were low, earthen buildings, and in the distance, the rolling mountains. The sky here is particularly blue, the wind particularly gentle, and the busy life seemed to have been temporarily put on pause. The nights in Shaxi are extraordinarily quiet, with only the sound of the breeze rustling through the treetops accompanied by the twinkling stars. Walking along the small paths of the ancient town, looking up, the sky was filled with stars, as if one could reach out and touch the heartbeat of the universe. This is a journey that truly calms the soul. Here, you can immerse yourself in the pulse of history and rediscover the peace and calm that have been forgotten in the hustle and bustle of life. If you are looking for a place where your soul can breathe, then Shaxi Ancient Town is your answer. Here, it is 'a place with wind,' and also a place where your soul can find peace.
