🏡 Nantou Old Town｜An old soul breathing between history and creativity

My first time visiting Nantou Old Town was truly a pleasant surprise. I had expected a touristy cultural and creative district, but it felt more authentic and lived-in. While few relics remain from the ancient town's thousand-year-old history, the restored city walls and alleyways retain a rich sense of history. Most uniquely, the cultural and creative shops here aren't the cookie-cutter equivalents of typical shopping malls. Some brands even have their own studios behind the shops, where handmade products, dyeing, and sewing are all done on-site. The atmosphere of "creation in life" makes you slow down your pace. As I walked, I'd stumble across photos of smiling locals hanging on street corners. At that moment, I suddenly realized—the soul of the old town has never left. #NantouOldTown #ShenzhenAttractions #CulturalCreativeBase #TheIntersectionofHistoryAndModernity #HandmadeLife #CityWandering #TripMoments
