Reverse travel is so cool, a hidden ancient town rarely visited by tourists🌲

Now more and more ancient towns are being developed and rebuilt. The same old reinforced concrete and noisy souvenir shops make me feel sad and tired. 👉The ancient town that Wenlvjun visited this time🏘 gave me unexpected feelings. 🎈No commercialization and no development. Hundreds of houses are built on the mountain, layer upon layer. The houses have a distinct southern Sichuan style, with grey bricks and green tiles, blending in with the surrounding green hills. The undulating and winding bluestone road connects the entire ancient town, full of a sense of history. 🎈There are still some residents living here as usual, some buying groceries, some carrying cages, some playing...it's as if they have entered the cycle of history in a second. This is the Fubao Ancient Town in Luzhou, Sichuan❗️It has both unique scenery and profound historical heritage. Niche! Jingmei! Few people! ✅✅✅Recommended features: 1⃣ Ancient Buildings 🎈 Fubao Ancient Town was built in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, and the existing buildings are mainly Ming and Qing Dynasty buildings. The building complex is composed of wooden frames, hip roofs, small green tile roofs, bluestone streets, and many stilted wooden buildings and wooden corridors, which provide many attractions. 🎈The ancient town has uneven terrain, with houses lined up one after another, undulating with the mountains. The ancient town consists of one main road and dozens of side roads. There is almost no space between the houses, which are as dense as a spider web. It has a unique three-dimensional style and is praised by architectural experts from Tsinghua University as "the essence of Chinese mountain architecture." 2⃣0 business, 0 development: There are no souvenir shops, no noisy commercial facilities, and even no convenience stores. It is quaint and quiet, exactly like the style of the past, which instantly kills all the ancient towns. 3⃣ Deep historical heritage: Due to geographical reasons, the ancient town was once a must-pass place for the transportation of Sichuan and Guizhou well salt and other commodities, and was once very prosperous. There were many distinctive buildings in the town, including three palaces and eight temples, and quite a few of them have been preserved. You can also see exquisite theaters, wing buildings, and carved beams and painted buildings. 4⃣ Take photos: The scenery of green mountains and clear waters, the ancient stone roads, and the undulating three-dimensional landscape are suitable for photos of all styles. 5⃣ Few people: There are few tourists here, it is quiet and peaceful. Very suitable for friends who like unpopular places. How to get there: 📍 You can drive directly to Luzhou Fubao Ancient Town 🚌Luzhou Hejiang County Passenger Station also has buses to Fubao Town, about every 15 minutes, which is very convenient 🎫Tickets: None 🅿️The road in Xinji Town outside the ancient town is wider and you can park for free. 🗺There is a hiking trail 20 meters to the right of the ancient town archway. It takes 5 minutes to walk to the viewing platform. It is a good place to enjoy the panoramic view of the ancient town. Don't miss it. 🚗2 days and 1 night travel route suggestion 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝟏: Luzhou-Fubao Ancient Town-Hejiang County 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝟐: Hejiang-Fawang Temple-Yaoba Ancient Town-return. 🏠Accommodation ✔Because there is not much development here and there are no hotels, it is recommended to stay in Hejiang County. 🥙Food recommendation: "Beimenkou River Tofu Pudding" in Hejiang County: Tofu pudding, fried blood vegetable with pork liver, and stir-fried pig intestines are recommended. They are very spicy and cost-effective. If you have time, you can combine it with a visit to nearby Chishui or Jiangjin.
