Wandering Through Qianyang Ancient Town: A Serene Cultural Journey

Huaihua's Hongjiang Qianyang Ancient Town is a unique old city. Unlike other bustling ancient towns, it is cherished for its tranquility; unlike the noisy crowds of other towns, it is loved for its peaceful seclusion. Here, you can find the Furong Tower where Wang Changling composed poetry, the authentic Ming and Qing-era Nan Zheng Street, the Zhongzheng Gate overlooking the riverbank, the Qianyang Theater where legendary stories are performed daily, and the distinctive local delicacies unique to Hongjiang. The ancient town is free to enter, except for certain attractions like Furong Tower. Unlike typical commercialized ancient towns, it lacks a noisy commercial atmosphere. Instead, it is home to elderly residents and children, exuding a serene and harmonious vibe, filled with a rich sense of everyday life.
