Hong'an Ancient Town is located in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, in the southeast of Chongqing City, and in the southeast of Xiushan County, 47 kilometers away from the county seat. It is the junction of Chongqing, Guizhou and Hunan, and is known as the "Gateway to Southeast Chongqing". It is a place where one foot steps into three provinces, and it is also the prototype of "Border Town" written by Shen Congwen. Zhang Kai, a famous person in Qing Dynasty, once wrote in a poem, "When the road to Shu is near, the spring breeze blows in several places; it blows the rain from Guizhou and rolls in the clouds from Chu", which describes the geographical advantage of "stepping on three provinces with one foot". There are many ancient buildings in Hong'an Ancient Town, with unique craftsmanship and shape, and distinctive Tujia and Miao village style. The natural attractions such as "Elephant Trunk Water Suction", "Jiulongpo" and the "No Man's Land" island are all well-known. Hongan Town is nestled in the mountains and beside the water, with green trees, rippling rivers and picturesque scenery. The most interesting thing about Hong'an Old Street is the cable-pulled ferry, which is connected to the docks on both sides by a steel wire, and also serves as the power source for the ferry to travel back and forth. After the boat was full, the old boatman sat leisurely on the wooden square platform in the boat house, using a two-foot round log with small grooves as a winch, which he clamped on the steel wire for crossing the river and towed the boat to the other side little by little. #Attractions Photography Guide #Ancient Town Tourism
