Hidden Gem | Mengzi: A Low-Key, Retro Border Town

Every corner of Bisezhai is steeped in history. As you walk along the ancient paths, you can hear the whispers of history in the wind. Here, it's not just a trip, but a journey through time. 🌄 In the early morning, the sun shines on the old train station, and the golden light reflects off the old buildings, like ripples of time gently lapping. As you stroll along the tracks, you can almost hear the roar of the old trains and feel the hustle and bustle of that era. 🚂 The old trains that quietly stop here are like the sentinels of time, silently witnessing the rise and fall of this place. Each train is a living history, carrying countless stories and memories. 🍀 When you step into a farmhouse, you'll find a different kind of scenery. The green rice fields and golden cornfields complement each other, exuding the fresh scent of the countryside. Under the eaves of the farmhouse, there are homegrown fruits and vegetables, full of the breath of life. 🍲 Food is an experience not to be missed. The affordable and delicious "crossing the bridge" rice noodles and fresh poultry and meat products will have you coming back for more. Especially the local specialties, which are unforgettable. 📸 When you want to capture the beauty of the moment, remember to look for those iconic photo spots. Freeze time in front of the old clock, leave your mark under the century-old water tower, and capture the tranquility on the tracks... 👕 Don't forget to rent a set of Republic of China-style clothes before you leave. Put on those gorgeous clothes, and you'll blend perfectly into this ancient world, meeting history with your beauty. 🎬 Bisezhai was once the filming location for the movie "Youth." On this land, you can almost hear the songs and laughter of that era and feel the time of youth. Tips: As Bisezhai is a popular attraction, we recommend planning your trip in advance to avoid peak times. Also, please protect the cultural relics and do not graffiti in the scenic area.
