My first trip after the Spring Festival was not far away. I took a 2-hour high-speed train from Guangzhou to Ganzhou West, a small city with a rich cultural heritage. It is the best-preserved Northern Song city in China today, with many relics from the Northern and Southern Song dynasties, and is known as the "Song City Museum." The old city of Ganzhou has many historical sites that are close together, making it ideal for a city walk. All the attractions are free, so kudos to Ganzhou for its cultural tourism. · [Recommended Route] Ganzhou Confucius Temple → Fushou Canal Museum → Wei Family Courtyard (Gannan Hakka Culture Museum) → Haihui Temple → Standard Clock → Zao'er Lane → Jianchun Gate → Donghe Floating Bridge → Yongjin Gate → Bajing Terrace → Former Residence of Chiang Ching-kuo → Yugu Terrace → Junmen Tower/Sixian Archway → Song Dynasty Nightless City Note: ① Ganzhou Confucius Temple was closed for maintenance last September and only reopened after the Lantern Festival this year. I was lucky to come at the right time, but the nearby Ciyun Pagoda is still under maintenance. ② The Fushou Canal Museum is a 2-minute walk from the Confucius Temple. It introduces the secret of Ganzhou's thousand-year flood-free history. The Wei Family Courtyard (Gannan Hakka Culture Museum) is next to the Fushou Canal Museum. ③ The Wei Family Courtyard is a 2-minute walk from Haihui Temple. Continue walking along Heping Road to the archway of Zao'er Lane. Continue walking for 1 minute to the Standard Clock. You can check in at the Standard Clock and then walk back to Zao'er Lane. ④ Walk through Zao'er Lane for 1 minute to reach Jianchun Gate. Walk through Jianchun Gate to see Donghe Floating Bridge. The bridge is full of life, especially with all kinds of salted fish hanging on the moored boats, which are very appetizing. ⑤ After visiting the ancient floating bridge, return to Jianchun Gate and climb the ancient city wall, where you can overlook the scenery on both sides of the Gong River. Walk along the city wall for 5 minutes to reach Yongjin Gate, and continue walking for 5 minutes to reach Bajing Terrace. ⑥ The city wall section from Yongjin Gate to Bajing Terrace is open from 9 am to 6 pm. From Bajing Terrace, you can see the confluence of the Zhang and Gong Rivers into the Gan River. ⑦ After visiting Bajing Terrace, continue walking along the city wall for 2 minutes to see the sign for the Former Residence of Chiang Ching-kuo, and go down the city wall to visit. After the visit, walk towards Song Dynasty Nightless City, cross the main street of Nightless City, and the right-hand side is the direction to Yugu Terrace. ⑧ If you don't want to see the night view, you can first visit Song Dynasty Nightless City, check in at Junmen Tower, Sixian Archway, and Yugu Terrace Cultural Block, and then go to Yugu Terrace. ⑨ Yugu Terrace is the highest point in Ganzhou City, where you can overlook the whole city. Many literati have inscribed poems here, including Zhao Bian, Su Shi, Xin Qiji, and Wen Tianxiang. Xin Qiji's "Bodhisattva Man: Written on the Wall of Jiangxi Zaokou" is famous at home and abroad. The whole poem is: "Under Yugu Terrace, the clear river flows, how many tears of travelers in between. Looking northwest to Chang'an, countless mountains are pitiful. The green hills cannot be covered, after all, they flow eastward. The river is late and worries me, deep in the mountains, I hear the cuckoo." ⑩ Recommended food in Ganzhou: Gannan stir-fried fish, Ningdu three-cup chicken, Ganzhou mixed noodles, Ganzhou fish cakes, Ningdu meatballs, Shicheng taro dumplings, etc. · Only after visiting Ganzhou did I realize that among the five ancient city walls in China, only the ancient city wall of Ganzhou is from the Song Dynasty, while the others are from the Ming Dynasty. Jiangnan Song City is in Ganzhou, not Hangzhou.

Recently, during the holiday, my bestie and I discussed where to go for fun. We hit it off and decided to head to Ganzhou, the Song Dynasty City in the south of the Yangtze River that we had always longed for. After all, we are both curious about this place, and we both like to enjoy the scenery while walking, so my bestie suggested a chartered tour to start a transition from the hustle and bustle of the city to the pastoral idyll. The driver was a local. He was awesome, drove very steadily, and was very knowledgeable about southern Jiangxi culture. He was like a walking encyclopedia of southern Jiangxi culture. Under his guidance, we traveled through the streets and alleys of Ganzhou. I listened to his clear explanations of every detail and instantly felt that this trip was worth it! The driver and tour guide specially planned a route for us to visit the Hakka walled villages in southern Jiangxi, so that we could better understand the local culture. At first we went to Guanxi Xinwei in Longnan City. This place was so stunning. The walled houses were huge, like a miniature castle, standing firmly among the green mountains and clear waters. The driver and guide talked about the origin and customs of the walled house while taking us to appreciate the beauty of the architecture. I couldn't take my eyes off it the whole time, it was so beautiful🤩! Next, we went to the ancient city wall of Ganzhou. Standing on it, looking at the flowing river and feeling the river breeze, it was so comfortable! The night view of the ancient city wall is absolutely stunning, with bright lights, it is so beautiful! There are many places worth visiting in Ganzhou, such as 🔸Yugutai, 🔸Bajingtai, 🔸Ancient Floating Bridge, 🔸Zaoerxiang, 🔸Jiangnan Songcheng Historical and Cultural Tourism Area, etc. They all have their own characteristics. The locals are very familiar with them, and the photos taken are very impressive. 📸 Ganzhou's food is also a highlight of the trip. Authentic southern Jiangxi dishes such as preserved vegetable and pork with preserved vegetables, stuffed tofu, and three-cup chicken are really recommended. I especially like preserved vegetable and pork with preserved vegetables. It is fat but not greasy and melts in the mouth. I couldn't help but eat several pieces. On the way back, my bestie was still sighing that it was a good thing that she had chosen this way of traveling to Ganzhou. Every stop was arranged just right. If she had planned it herself, she would probably be exhausted. This trip is hassle-free and worry-free, it is a rare experience😀 Ganzhou is really worth a visit! Ganzhou·Jiangxi
