Shicheng, Jiangxi | A picturesque hidden gem.

Shicheng County, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, is named after the surrounding mountains and rocks that stand like a city wall. Located on the border of Fujian and Jiangxi provinces, Shicheng has always been a must-pass place for Jiangxi to enter western Fujian and eastern Guangdong, and is known as the "thoroughfare of Fujian and Guangdong". Shicheng has a history of more than a thousand years since its establishment, and is the birthplace of Hakka culture in China, also known as the "cradle of Hakka", and is also the "hometown of white lotus". In addition to Tongtianzhai, the following attractions are also recommended: Nanlu House: Also known as "Huangjia House", located in Dashu Village, Qinjiang Town, it is one of the few well-preserved Hakka ancestral houses in Shicheng, built during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, with a five-entry Hui-style architectural structure, and a half-moon-shaped pond in front of the house, with excellent feng shui. The nearby 100-acre lotus pond is also beautiful in the summer when the lotus flowers are in full bloom. Baofuyuan Pagoda: Also known as "Baofu Pagoda", located on the east bank of the Qinjiang River, adjacent to the landmark building of Shicheng "Qinjiang Langqiao", was built in the first year of Chongning in the Northern Song Dynasty (1102), and is the result of the integration of Central Plains culture and Fujian and Guangdong characteristics by the Hakka ancestors. Li Lashi: Formerly known as "Ying'en Stone", it is the place where the imperial edict was received in ancient times. In ancient times, there was a Li county magistrate who often hunted there, and later changed the name of the mountain to "Li Lishi", because in Shicheng vernacular, "hunting" and "wax" sound similar, and later generations also called it "Li Lashi". Climb the mountain and overlook the county town, free admission. Bagua Brain 🏔️: The main peak is 1,314 meters above sea level, and the locals also call it "Love Mountain", the most beautiful April day in the world, Bagua Brain to see azaleas, the alpine meadow landscape is not inferior to Wugong Mountain, worth a visit. Other must-see attractions: Flower Paradise, Shicheng County Museum, Fujian-Guangdong Thoroughfare (Zhenwu Building), Dashu Huayou Hot Spring, Osmanthus House, Jiudie Spring, Ganjiang Source Rafting, etc. 🍡【Food Recommendations】 Changxing Old Water Wine: Fly restaurant, water wine, local stir-fry; Yupin Xuan: Shicheng local cuisine; Liuji Rice Noodles: Fish head noodles, three fresh noodles; Liangliang Soup Shop: Duck head, fried noodles, all kinds of soup; Original Snail: Rice wine snail must try, you can't eat it anywhere else; Momo Ge: Buns with green pepper, diced bamboo shoots, and shiitake mushroom filling, highly recommended!
