Qiandeng Ancient Town

Qiandeng Ancient Town The first stop of my leisure year card return plan is Qiandeng Ancient Town. The leisure year card is about to expire, and I haven't used it once. So the first stop is Qiandeng Ancient Town. There are not many people in Qiandeng on weekdays, and the attractions feel quite scattered, one here and another there. Summary as follows: Gu Yanwu's former residence is ok Gu Yanwu's former residence is really big, and the garden is also super big, it's quite nice for taking photos. Most of the time was spent walking around inside. However, the road in front of the door is under construction, so you have to take a big detour. Qiandeng Lamp Museum is ok Inside, there are many lamps from different eras, from the Han Dynasty to the Republic of China, really a thousand lamps, it's quite interesting. Those interested can take a look, there is a courtyard inside that is very nice for taking photos. Ancient Opera Stage A place to listen to Kunqu opera, not much to do with 'ancient'. It's nice to go listen when you are tired of walking. Yu's Pawnshop The pawnshop at the entrance is quite interesting, you can see what pawnshops looked like in the past, but the inside is very average, there is a strange stone exhibition and Xu Fu's former residence together. Qinfeng Tower is ok Located in a temple, the temple is very big. It's nice to wander around inside. There is a jade reclining Buddha, with a compassionate appearance, seems to be in the style of the Tang Dynasty. Gu Jian Memorial Hall Gu Jian is the ancestor of Kunqu opera, but the memorial hall is really small. However, what's thoughtful is that there is a sensor for explanations in each exhibition hall. As you approach the door, the introduction starts, and listening to the explanations will give you a better understanding.
