Stepping into the town felt like traveling through time back to a simpler era. Ancient buildings with gray tiles and white walls were arranged in a pleasing pattern, with upturned eaves displaying their unique charm. Walking along the bluestone paths, shops lined the way offering everything from traditional handicrafts to local specialty snacks. At the lakeside, we rented a small boat to drift on the water. The lake was crystal clear with fish playing beneath the surface, while willows swayed gently along the shore. A light breeze brought coolness, helping me forget all worries. In the distance, pavilions and towers peeked through the greenery like a traditional Chinese ink painting. The town also has a rich cultural heritage. We visited historical sites like Wenchang Pavilion and Guandi Temple, learning about the historical changes and cultural inheritance of the Mianyang area. At the ancient stage, we watched a wonderful performance of Mianyang Flower Drum Opera, where the performers' exquisite skills and vivid acting made me deeply appreciate the charm of traditional culture. When tired from exploring, we sampled the local cuisine. Mianyang Three Steamed Dishes were a must-try, with rice noodles wrapping tender ingredients that melted in the mouth. Maozui Braised Chicken had a golden color and rich flavor that lingered long after eating. There were also various special snacks like soft rice balls and crispy Qiu's Guokui, each bite full of local flavor. As night fell, the town was bathed in lights, creating a different kind of beauty. Colorful lights reflected on the lake surface, creating a dreamlike scene. Fireworks bloomed in the night sky, illuminating the entire town as people stopped to watch with happy smiles on their faces. The trip to Mianyang Town allowed me to experience the tranquility and beauty of a watertown, feel its rich historical and cultural heritage, and taste delicious local food. It's a place where your soul can truly relax, and I look forward to my next visit. Summary: Two adults and one child, 2 days and 2 nights Stayed at the best hotel in Mianyang Town (two nights, ¥300+) Ate at the best restaurant in Mianyang Town (¥300) Enjoyed national-level entertainment facilities (free) First-class high-speed rail tickets for 3 people round trip (¥150) Other expenses ¥150 (KFC + local snacks) Total ¥900, averaging ¥300 per person If you're short on time, you could stay just one night. Arrive early on the first day, head directly to Mianyang Town in the afternoon, enjoy a nice dinner in the evening, and then sleep in naturally the next morning before checking out in the afternoon.
