"Huaiyuan Ancient Town"
In Yizhou District, Hechi City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, there is an ancient town full of historical charm and unique style, Huaiyuan Ancient Town.
Huaiyuan Ancient Town has a long history and seems to be a wise man who has traveled through time. The buildings in the ancient town bear the traces of the years. The antique arcades, which incorporate the architectural style of Lingnan, tell the prosperity of the past between the carved beams and painted buildings. Walking on the streets of the ancient town, the bluestone slab road winds forward, and each slab is like a page of history, recording the past of the ancient town.
The residents here still retain a simple way of life, continuing the customs passed down from generation to generation in traditional wooden houses. In the market, there are a variety of special snacks, and the aroma is overflowing. Glutinous rice chicken, tofu balls and other delicacies allow people to taste the authentic Guangxi flavor.
The ancient town is also close to the beautiful river, the river is flowing slowly, like a dynamic ribbon of the ancient town. The scenery on the river bank is beautiful, the trees are shaded, and the ancient town adds a bit of tranquility and poetry. Whether it is the first ray of sunlight in the early morning sprinkling on the ancient town, or the afterglow in the evening dyeing the ancient town into golden, Huaiyuan Ancient Town shows its unique charm, like a quiet and beautiful picture, which makes people linger and immerse in it. In the long river of history.

Reverse Travel Diary of Yizhou
⭐️Huaiyuan Ancient Town
The ancient town has activities and is quite lively.
There is a glass bridge in the middle, which costs 35. / The only charged item. Overall, it doesn't feel commercialized (unlike the East-West Alley in Guilin). Suitable for taking photos, the nearby river is very green.
⭐️Xiajian River Scenic Area
There are many activities inside, including mountain songs~ Many scenic spots in Yizhou have mountain song duets, and so does Liuzhou.
⭐️Hechi Garden Expo Park
Recommended to visit during holidays or after 4:30 PM. The highlights are at night. Nothing much during the day. The night view is beautiful, with fireworks. Not sure if there are still fireworks now? I went when it just opened.
⭐️Yingying Sweet Rice Noodle Shop
The first meal after getting off the highway! It should be in the new district, anyway, it's easy to park. We ordered three fresh boiled noodles with added eggs. The side dishes are self-served. It's on the sweeter side.
⭐️Old Brand Cold Dishes
When I came to Yizhou before, I ate at the old brand. This time it didn't taste very flavorful, but the fish mint was delicious.
⭐️Pengji Taro Cake
The taro cake is really delicious!!! Unlike the taro cake in Liuzhou, it has added cabbage and pickled vegetables. The minced meat stir-fry is very fragrant!
