Travel guide to Zhenyuan Ancient Town, a famous attraction in Guizhou, China, suitable for checking in and taking photos📸

#Mainland Travel Zhenyuan Ancient Town is a famous tourist attraction in Guizhou, China. Thousands of tourists come here for sightseeing and vacation every day. This time I will introduce a travel guide to Zhenyuan Ancient Town. Zhenyuan Ancient Town is located on the banks of the Wuyang River in Zhenyuan County, Qiandongnan Prefecture, Guizhou Province. It is surrounded by mountains and the river winds through the town in an "S" shape. The north bank is the old prefectural city and the south bank is the old acropolis. From a distance, it looks like a Tai Chi diagram. Both cities were built in the Ming Dynasty and some of their city walls and gates are still preserved. There are many ancient buildings, traditional houses and historical docks inside and outside the city. The transportation is convenient and the location is very advantageous. They are known as the "Key to Yunnan and Chu, and the Gateway to Eastern Guizhou". Must experience: Qinglong Cave Visit the ancient building complex. The Qinglong Cave ancient building complex was built in the middle of the Ming Dynasty and has a history of more than 600 years. It consists of 36 individual buildings and is the largest ancient building complex in Guizhou Province. Built on a steep cliff, it integrates Buddhist temples, Taoist temples and Confucian temples. It still exists today and is known as the "Hanging Temple of the Southwest". Must experience: Check in at the Blessing Bridge Zhusheng Bridge is a seven-arch bluestone arch bridge built over the Wuyang River. It was first built in the early years of the Hongwu reign of the Ming Dynasty. Historically, it was a must-pass bridge on the ancient post road between Hunan, Guizhou and Yunnan. It is connected to two scenic spots of Zhenyuan Ancient City, Shiping Mountain and Qinglong Cave, and is one of the landmark buildings of Zhenyuan Ancient City. Must experience: Shiping Mountain The barrier to the north of Zhenyuan Ancient City, opposite Qinglong Cave across the river, is also the commanding height of the ancient city. From the top of Shiping Mountain, you can see the whole view of Zhenyuan Ancient Town, the narrow and deep ancient alleys are in full view, and you can also see the Bagua shape of Zhenyuan Ancient City. The graceful and winding Wuyang River runs through the city, the Miao Great Wall is situated on the mountain, and the Qinglong Cave complex has various architectural styles. There are two east-west roads connecting Shiping Mountain. One is to climb up Yuping Mountain from the hiking trail at Zhusheng Bridge. The second method is to go through "Sifangjing Lane" or "Fuxing Lane" in the ancient city pedestrian street to the mountain road.
