The serene and quaint Guanglu Ancient Town in Chuxiong, Yunnan~~

|Chuxiong Guanglu Ancient Town~~. Chuxiong Yao'an Guanglu Ancient Town: The entire ancient town is built in the shape of the Chinese character '坤', with numerous ancient buildings. The town has a long history and has always been an important town for governing Yunnan in ancient times. It was an important stronghold on the ancient southern 'Silk Road' leading to Southeast Asia and India. It is a small town dominated by historical and agricultural culture, where one can see the coexistence of the local land deity worship, Taoism, and Buddhism. As a necessary pass through the ancient southwestern Silk Road, it was historically known as a 'famous state of literature'. Guanglu Town is a place of outstanding people and spirit, with many notable figures. The Gao family once had the saying, 'Nine bright scholars, seven officials, eight prime ministers, three kings, one emperor, and five marquises'. Visitors are very rare, and almost every household has flowers planted at the door. The grandparents playing cards in the alleys are so at ease··
