The retro charm of the city, check in at "Xixing Ancient Town"

🌈Highlights: Xixing Ancient Town has a history of over two thousand years and was once a key gateway of the Grand Canal transportation route. As a transfer dock for merchants traveling from the south to the north, it was bustling with traders and had a prosperous cityscape. Despite the passage of many years, it still retains the characteristics of a riverside town in the south of the Yangtze River from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, along with historical relics. There has not been overly commercial large-scale development, and it still maintains the local life atmosphere of old Hangzhou residents. 🚗Address & Transportation: Near 105 Guanhe Road, Binjiang District, Hangzhou. Exit B of Xixing Subway Station on Line 1 🎫Ticket Information: Free ✨Tips: The two sides of the ancient town are densely packed with well-preserved residences from the Ming and Qing dynasties, mostly inhabited by local residents living their normal lives, with only a few doing small businesses. Due to the absence of commercial shops, there are very few visitors here. Personally, I don't think it's worth the detour The original residents and traditional lifestyles have become historical symbols of Xixing Ancient Town PS: The last three photos are of Changhe Old Street
