A gem on the southwestern frontier, the beautiful Heshun Ancient Town!

Heshun Ancient Town is a national 5A-level scenic area and has been awarded titles such as "China's Charming Town," "China's Historical and Cultural Town," and "China's Top Ten Most Beautiful Villages." Located in the suburbs of Tengchong City, Yunnan Province, it was anciently known as "Yangwendun." In the 15th year of the Hongwu reign of the Ming Dynasty, General Mu Ying stationed troops here. The famous Ming Dynasty traveler Xu Xiake also journeyed thousands of miles from Jiangsu to visit this place. Heshun Ancient Town combines the charm of Suzhou-style small bridges and flowing water, Huizhou-style architecture, and Southeast Asian elements. Its main attractions include the Heshun Archway, Shuanghong Bridge, Wenchang Palace, Yuanlong Pavilion, old residences, and stone bridges, making it a beautiful destination worth visiting.
