Shaxi Ancient Town Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Shaxi Ancient Town was once an important station on the ancient tea-horse road. Now Shaxi is quieter and simpler, and it also better preserves the style of the tea-horse town. Xingjiao Temple is a major attraction of Shaxi. It is the only remaining Baidu “Atoli” Buddhist temple in the Ming Dynasty. The murals and sculptures inside are worth savoring. Walking on the street slowly enjoys the ancient city of Dali. Quiet and comfortable.

ings to Know Before Going to Shaxi Ancient Town | Be a passerby on the Ancient Tea Horse Road| Be a passerby on the Ancient Tea Horse Road. In a place called Jianchuan in Dali, Yunnan, there is an ancient town, which is an important post on the Ancient Tea Horse Road. It is so quiet that it is almost forgotten. In recent years, because of a TV series 'Go to the Place with Wind', it has become famous. I have been here a few years ago, and it is not an exaggeration to say that this ancient town is still my favorite ancient town, without one. I thought that the heat of the TV series would make this simple and pure ancient town commercialized, but I didn't expect that when I visited again a few days ago, I found that it was still the same as a few years ago, without catching up with the trend, still so simple and quiet. . 📍Shaxi Ancient Town 🚗Shaxi Ancient Town, Jianchuan County, Dali City, Yunnan Province (recommended self-driving, the whole journey is accessible by expressway, the ancient town has a parking lot) 🎫Free admission . Stepping into Shaxi Ancient Town, it seems to have passed through the gate of time and space, and came to an ancient world. The winding stone road winds past, and the bluestone houses on both sides stand tall. After hundreds of years of wind and rain, they still reveal the breath of history. In the square in the center of the ancient town, an ancient stone well quietly guards this land, witnessing countless pedestrians' departures and returns. . 📸Must check-in ✅ Ancient stage The ancient stage is the most distinctive building on Sifang Street. It is located in the central street-facing position of the building group on the east side of Sifang Street. It has a history of over a hundred years. Because of its long history and pure wooden construction for a hundred years, it can now only be visited under the stage ✅Ancient temple The Xingjiao Temple opposite the ancient stage is an ancient temple that has existed in Shaxi for hundreds of years. It is very quiet inside, and it is now open for visit ✅Yujin Bridge The Yujin Bridge spans the Heihui River. The Heihui River is the mother river of Shaxi Ancient Town. It is clear and soft, and the Yujin Bridge is the first bridge to Dali. It is the only way for all horse teams from the south to the north in the past ✅Pioneer Bookstore This is a Bai bookstore. In addition to a large number of books available for reading in the bookstore, there are also many unique ethnic cultural peripherals of the Bai people in Shaxi. The scent of books and the originality of the ancient town are combined. It is the most comfortable in the life of the ancient town to draw half a day of leisure, pick a book you like, find a corner to sit down and quietly read the story in it. ✅Coffee shop There are many coffee shops in Shaxi, each with its own flavor and style. Just find a place to sit down, drink coffee and bask in the sun, it's all healing time . Shaxi is a very small ancient town. Although it is not big, it can make people linger. It is a place where people can calm down, stare in a daze, taste quietly, and think quietlVictoriaMcDermott00

It is the 'living Loulan' in the southwestern border area of China, listed in the 101 World Memorial Architectural Heritage List. Shaxi Ancient Town is a fully functional thousand-year-old market that combines ancient temples, ancient stages, ancient shops, ancient horse shops, ancient red sandstone streets, hundred-year-old trees, ancient alleys, and ancient village gates. For a thousand years, Shaxi Ancient Town has stood quietly beside the Tea Horse Road. Yellow walls and green tiles, sandstone ancient roads, crisscrossing paths, interspersed with rivers and streams.

Yunnan knows my intentions, and I want to go with itShaxi Ancient Town, two hours away from Dali Ancient City, is a healing small town I often go to, where I can enjoy the beautiful scenery without spending much. Keep this relaxing and healing travel guide. 🗓Itinerary: First, I live in Jixia Mountain Homestay, the parking lot is right at the door, and it is very convenient to travel, 🌟Highlights: The independent courtyard is not noisy at all, no matter which room's window is full of green fields, there are big slides and persimmon trees, children have to play, and the housekeeper will also prepare afternoon tea, leisurely and comfortable. 🗓Itinerary: Walk from the homestay for five minutes to stroll around the ancient city, a stream runs through to the ancient stage, 600 years of changes have turned the once noisy drums into history under today's afterglow. Under the ancient tree, the old man smokes a pole, and sits from youth to dusk. Dinner is in the ancient city. The fresh black fish gas pot shabu-shabu fish meat QQ bounces back to the homestay on the way through Yujin Bridge. Many people come for this bridge and the stone road of the Tea Horse Road. It is just my casual ordinary road. The next morning, I had breakfast at the homestay, spent 15 yuan, and took a small yellow car to the Pioneer Bookstore. Here are hidden poems and humanities, bought a horse sticker, and it's okay. Experience tie-dyeing by hand, or you can enjoy the current wind without doing anything. Ten minutes away from the homestay on the hillside, it seems to put the rice fields of the whole city into the frame, wandering in the comic world. In fact, there is no need to feel the itinerary when coming to Shaxi. This is not a scenic spot, there is no need to punch in, look carefully, slowly blend in, every room and tile is a scenery, look at the clouds and trees, look at the world's fireworks, and go down the mountain. It's a mountain, and it's irrelevant to come to the wind and dust.

Shaxi: The paddy field on the way to the Half Mountain Coffee is so healing!It's the season of rice fragrance, and you can see golden paddy fields everywhere in Shaxi ancient town. It's dusk. We came out of the Pioneer Bookstore and prepared to go to Half Mountain Coffee for a juice. The yellow tuk-tuk carried us on the village road, the road was easy to walk. The endless paddy field presents its most beautiful appearance under the sunset, the rice is heavily hanging down its head, there is a wisp of cooking smoke in the distance, and the farmers are busy cooking. Couldn't help but stop and take a photo with the paddy field, it's very photogenic. Half Mountain Coffee is located at the viewing platform of Hualong Village, with an excellent geographical location. Looking down from the window, the well-arranged rural scenery, especially that piece of paddy field is super healing! It's late, dare not drink coffee, afraid of insomnia at night, ordered a pear orange juice, the taste is very positive, delicious. This country road is especially suitable for walking, the beautiful scenery in the field is not enough, especially in the deep autumn season, the Heihui River flows slowly, under the blue sky and white clouds there are paddy fields and corn fields, Gesang flowers are everywhere, roasted leaf flowers are also blooming, so beautiful.BoundlessRoamer14
Shaxi Ancient Town in Yunnan, a town with a long history and profound cultural heritage, is definitely worth a visitShaxi Ancient Town in Yunnan, a town with a long history and profound cultural heritage, is definitely worth a visit! Compared with the famous ancient towns of Dali and Lijiang in Yunnan, Shaxi Ancient Town is less noisy and more quiet and simple. Here is a town with a history of 600 years, walking on the street can make people feel very comfortable. Among all the attractions in Shaxi Ancient Town, I prefer the Yujin Bridge in winter. Around 8 o'clock in the morning, as the sun slowly rises, the ground temperature gradually rises, and the surface of the Yujin River also begins to rise fog. The Yujin Bridge before and after sunrise is completely different, before sunrise it is quiet and blue, after sunrise it is warm and brilliant. If you come to Shaxi, don't miss Yujin Bridge, the ancient stage and Sideng Street. You can reach Shaxi by self-driving or carpooling, or by ordering a bus through the Caiyun Tong applet. The best shooting time for Yujin Bridge is at sunrise, the morning fog rising from the river and the warm sun are a beautiful combination. Shaxi Ancient Town is a place where people linger. If you also want to go to a quiet place to relax, why not come to Shaxi to feel the simplicity and tranquility here!CONNOR LINDSEY
Shaxi, I am completely satisfiedFor me, the experience of a trip is not only about the scenery but also inseparably linked to the food, accommodation, and every little feeling along the way. My eyes must be able to capture the beauty, while my ears can't be overwhelmed by noise, nor can I be jostled by crowds. I want my soul to be nourished, and I'd prefer my body to be comfortable as well. Therefore, I usually make detailed travel plans and choose a good place to stay. The place I stayed in Shaxi was the Ke Gong Di Cultural Inn. I hesitated a lot before booking, but once I checked in, I was glad about my choice. The tranquility and otherworldliness of Shaxi deserve a good inn to match it! The service and business philosophy of Ke Gong Di Cultural Inn make everyone feel warm. Just like this ancient town, it's so comfortable that it makes you want to settle down. When you're out and about, a delicious meal can soothe so much fatigue! When I was starving at night, I had my first taste of Shaxi, vaguely remembering eating scrambled eggs with tree flowers and the signature spicy meat. The portions were huge, and the taste was outstanding, truly worthy of being the hottest restaurant in Shaxi. The Pioneer Bookstore Shaxi Bai Ethnic Bookstore filled the void of cultural attractions on this trip. The bookstore's elegance and simplicity complement the serene indifference of Shaxi. I bought books and cultural and creative products related to Yunnan in the bookstore, which made me happier than replicating Li Xian's photo on the Poetry Tower 😊. I listened to the advice of the inn's auntie and didn't drive up because the road was too narrow. Instead, I hailed a little yellow car. Although it wasn't cheap, the feeling of chugging along the country roads was quite fun and made for a novel memory. It's been ten days since I returned from Shaxi, but it seems like I'm still lingering on the days spent standing on Sideng ancient street and daydreaming by the Yujin Bridge, missing Yunnan!FLORA GIBBS

Shaxi Ancient Town Travel Guide | If you're thinking of going, save this recommendationShaxi Ancient Town originated during the rise of the Nanzhao Kingdom and is the only surviving market town on the ancient Tea Horse Road. It is also the ancient town where Xu Hongdou from 'Where There Is Wind' lived. The surrounding natural scenery is beautiful, and the town's architecture is quaint and full of character. It takes just an hour or two to walk through the entire town, but it's more suitable for settling down to relax and enjoy some slow time. 🚌Transport We went there from Jianchuan. Next to the Jianchuan bus station, you can find the green minivan heading to Shaxi Ancient Town. The fare is 20 yuan per person, and the ride takes about an hour. The van will take you directly to the Shaxi Ancient Town Visitor Center parking lot. For the return trip, you can follow the 084 county road out of the ancient town to the entrance, where you can catch a van back to Jianchuan. 💌Tip: The mountain roads are winding and can easily cause motion sickness, so it's a good idea to take some motion sickness medicine in advance. ➡️Tour Route in the Ancient Town Yujin Bridge - Nanzong Ancient Alley - Ancient Opera Stage - Xingjiao Temple - Sideng Street - Ouyang Courtyard - Shaxi Specialty Snack Market ⛰️Yujin Bridge The Yujin Bridge to the east of the ancient town is the best place to enjoy the natural scenery. Horses pass over the bridge, their bells ringing crisply. On a clear and sunny day, strolling along the Heihui River can cure all unhappiness. ⛰️Nanzong Ancient Alley A quaint and quiet alley, with traditional Bai ethnic houses and ancient-style shops on the side. There is also a Nanzhai Gate, an arched gate made of adobe, which is one of my favorite places in the ancient town. ⛰️Ancient Opera Stage With a stage in front and a pavilion in the back, this Kui Xing Pavilion-style building is the central area of the town. Next to it is Grandma A Rui's shop, and Shaxi's performance artist, the Shaxi Chaplin, often appears here. ⛰️Xingjiao Temple Built during the Ming Dynasty, it is currently the largest and most representative Buddhist Tantric 'Azha Li' temple in China. The sculptures at the entrance and the murals inside are rich in local characteristics and are treasures of ancient Bai ethnic art. ⛰️Sideng Street The main street of the ancient town, with low Qing Dynasty houses on both sides and Ming and Qing stone slabs underfoot. It's as if time has stood still, making this street seem unchanged from a hundred years ago. ⛰️Ouyang Courtyard A traditional Bai ethnic building, it is the best-preserved residence in the town and was once a horse inn. ⛰️Shaxi Specialty Snack Market Next to the visitor center parking lot, there are many local specialties, such as ersi, rice noodles, roasted ersi blocks, and grilled milk fans. 🕰️Opening Hours: Open all day 🌟Nearby Attractions: Shibaoshan, Jianchuan Ancient TownDIYDesigner
Wow! How beautiful it is to go to a windy placeWith the hit TV series 'To the Windy Place', Shaxi Ancient Town, a low-key town, can no longer hide. It has suddenly shed its coat and become shiny. I originally thought that the TV series would destroy the original tranquility here, but I found that it has become more beautiful. The TV series has already filmed it beautifully, but it has not completely filmed all its beauty. The quaint and charming buildings, clean streets, and roses blooming all the way make people feel relaxed and happy. It takes two hours to get to Shaxi Ancient Town from Dali Ancient City, or you can take a bus to Jianchuan and then transfer to Shaxi Ancient Town, but it is still recommended to drive by yourself. 😻😻Play recommendations: 👍Yujin Bridge: The ancient bridge that Xu Hongdou passed when she first arrived in the ancient town. Here you can see fields, mountains and streams, and the morning mist is very beautiful; 👍Shaxi Mint Coffee Shop The 'Wind Tavern' where Xu Hongdou works is very elegant. The green plum tree in the courtyard is full of fruits, super beautiful, and the mint coffee is also good. 👍Ancient stage The place where candy and her sisters recorded promotional videos in Bai nationality costumes, it's a small square, and Charlie Chaplin is here, and Granny Ari's shop is also here; this is my favorite place in Shaxi Ancient Town. 👍Temple Street Listed in the 101 World Endangered Sites worth paying attention to by the World Architecture Foundation There are also cosmic bread, San Yi Coffee and Pioneer Bookstore, etc. which are all worth seeing.SHANE VAUGHN1

A very beautiful and peaceful place in Yunnan Shaxi❤️ friendly people and a lot of good food
Go to the windy place. It is the most satisfying place for Dali's trip. It's too comfortable and comfortable. It's not worth a trip. It's really worth a visit. There are few people, Jingmei, and the price is cheap. In this plate of bovine liver fungus 58 yuan, in Kunming it is 158. The first time I ate the fungus, I ate it.
The ancient town of Shaxi between Dali and Lijiang is haunting and picturesque. The ancient architectural style is fully preserved here, and the ancient stage, ancient temple and ancient shops in the center of the town are worth slowly enjoying. The Heihui River is crystal clear and you can ride across the river to the French bakery in the town. It is worth stopping and savoring.
Remember when checking the Raiders, there are many old Raiders introduced the quiet introduction of Shaxi, much like Lijiang or Dali more than ten years ago. But if you come to Shaxi now, you may not feel the tranquility at all, because after the hot air in the windy place, too many people came to Shaxi, and with the high speed from Jianchuan to Shaxi, the traffic jam has completely affected the travel to Shaxi. Then come to Shaxi Ancient Town travel, can you still feel the windy place? My answer is yes, because many people who come here are mostly one-day or two-day tours, and they put more time in the check-in place of net reds, such as in the ancient town of Shaxi, or the bookstore next to it. In fact, in the surrounding area of Shaxi Ancient Town, there are many quiet villages or small towns worth visiting. The roadsides of these small villages and small towns are fields and rice fields that we are very familiar with. You may wish to choose a sun setting in the evening alone. Or ask a friend to walk into the rice field, slowly walk forward, no matter where you can go, you will not get lost, because the end of the rice field is the beautiful scenery. I think this kind of life is the life we want, such a wind is the wind we follow.
This is the most rustic in the ancient town I have ever been to. The simplicity and slowness of the locals attracted me.
I never thought of a TV drama that made the sand stream that was originally very deserted, so lively. How should I visit the sand stream under the crowded environment? In fact, the best way is to stay here for a few more nights, and now people always pursue high-tempo travel and fast-tempo travel. So most people come to Shaxi just a day trip to punch in, go to Shaxi's cafe, sit on a cup of coffee, punch in, go to the scenic spots in the windy place, and then leave in a hurry, and finally leave a sentence here is nothing more than this. In fact, come to Shaxi, if you calm down for a few nights, walk in the ancient town, go to the surrounding villages, walk in the fields, you will find that life here is actually quite slow, life here is actually very wonderful. Although I only stayed here for two nights, I feel that this place can really make you feel down, even if you are looking for a homestay, quietly waiting for the sunrise and sunset. Now the way to reach Shaxi is also very convenient, with the high-speed opening, from Jianchuan to Shaxi on the high-speed, that is 30 minutes. I believe that with the convenience of transportation, the flow of people here will be more and more lively, if you want to pursue quiet, you may wish to stay here for a few more nights.
