Lu'e Ge's hometown tour recommends a hidden gem of a small city accessible by high-speed train

These days, Rongchang "Lu'e Ge" (Braised Goose Guy) is all the rage on the Internet. He was also hired by the Rongchang County Government as a Rongchang cultural tourism ambassador. Rongchang braised goose has also become famous at home and abroad for the first time because of him. However, there are very few articles about tourism in Rongchang on the Internet. The Cultural Tourism Officer had the honor of visiting Rongchang once 🏯. I have a good impression of this city. Today, I will introduce you to this small city that has gone from obscurity to being popular all over the Internet. Rongchang is located at the junction of Sichuan and Chongqing and has a long history. There are many historical sites here, including magnificent churches, original ancient towns, exquisite ancient temples, and vicissitudes of ancient pagodas, as well as various delicacies. It is especially suitable for holiday trips to avoid traffic jams ‼️. 🚌 How to get there 🚄 High-speed train Rongchang has a high-speed train station. It only takes half an hour from Chongqing to Rongchang and only 1 hour from Chengdu to Rongchang. 🚗 It is also suitable for self-driving. 🚗 Travel Guide 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝟏: Chengdu/Chongqing ➠ Changzhou Ancient Town ➠ Baocheng Temple ➠ Rongchang Catholic Church 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝟐: Zhenyuan Hall ➠ Hebao Ba'en Temple Pagoda ➠ Liangping White Pagoda ➠ Wanling Ancient Town 𝐃𝐚𝐲 3: Tonggushan Stone Carvings ➠ Liujia Temple Cliff Stone Carvings ➠ Return trip ✅✅✅ Travel Recommendations 📌 Baocheng Temple Founded in the Southern Song Dynasty and renovated in the Ming Dynasty, the existing buildings include the front hall, the Sutra Collection Building, and the back hall.
