Tongjiang Academy, a super beautiful century-old academy, it's worth the trip

Encountering the century-old Tongjiang Academy in Xianju 📓White walls and black tiles, corridors and eaves, the "Tongjiang Academy" located at the foot of Shenxianju has a history of eight hundred years and is known as the first academy in Jiangnan. This is not only the earliest academy in Xianju, but also the best preserved academy in Jiangnan. 🌳There are two tall and dense Picrasma trees in front of the academy. It is said that they were planted by Zhu Xi himself. Of course, there is no way to verify this. But Zhu Xi did come here to lecture twice, and sent his son to study here. This is evidenced by the poem "Sending Son to Tongjiang Academy for Study", which shows that this was indeed a place where students studied hard in the past. 🌿Walking past the stone archway, crossing the top scholar bridge, and coming to the academy lecture hall. The plaques of "Respect, Quiet", "Order, Neat" hang on the wall, and it seems that there are loud readings lingering in the ears. Outside the academy, there are pavilions and corridors, full of ancient charm, and you can even see the blooming plum blossoms. Walking in the quaint and quiet academy, it seems to be infected with a bit of bookishness, there is a sense of immortality and elegance... 📍Zhejiang Taizhou City, Xianju County, Pota Beach Township, Tongjiang Academy ⏰Opening hours: 8:00~17:00 🎫Tickets: Free Spot Hunting Trip
