Hunan Furong Town| I love this fairy and chivalrous ancient town for a thousand years more than Wuzhen

| Compared to Wuzhen, I love this fairy and chivalrous ancient town more. Furong Ancient Town, Located in Yongshun County, Xiangxi Prefecture, Hunan Province, The original name is Wang Village, It is an ancient town with a history of more than two thousand years. It is known as the "Four Famous Towns of Xiangxi" with Longshan Liye Town, Luxi Pushi Town, and Huayuan Chadao Town, It has the reputation of Xiyang Xiong Town and "Little Nanjing". Because the movie "Furong Town" was filmed here, So it was renamed "Furong Town". ✅Must experience: Watch Furong Town Waterfall Furong Town Waterfall, 40 meters wide and 60 meters high, It falls from the high bank in two stages, Like thousands of horses galloping, the momentum is like a rainbow, It is the most spectacular waterfall in Xiangxi. The natural cave under the waterfall curtain is the site of the Tujia people's dwelling, It is the place where the ancestors of the Tujia lived, Here you can also feel the waterfall up close. There is a feeling of crossing the "Water Curtain Cave". Looking out from inside the waterfall, the jade is flying and rinsing, It's like a "pearl curtain", crystal clear. The various stilted buildings hanging high around the waterfall, It is the home of modern Tujia people. The stilted buildings are built on the mountain, the trees are reflected in the houses, the water passes through the building, The waterfall pours down the bank, the river lingers in the mountains, and the boat swings in the blue waves. The building hangs on the waterfall, the waterfall views the building, the building admires the waterfall, and the waterfall and the building blend, It is the most prominent feature of Furong Town Waterfall. ✅Must experience: Stroll along the Five Mile Long Street Five Mile Long Street, also known as Five Mile Stone Street, It is a five-mile long bluestone road that runs through the ancient town, On both sides are board door shops and Tujia stilted buildings, Winding all the way. Although the prosperity of the past is no longer there, But the time in the ancient town is still so pleasant. Stepping on the ancient street, It seems to be stepping on the fragments left by the long years, Hearing the sound of stepping on the bluestone board, It's like knocking in the echo of the years. The night in Furong Town is particularly quiet, The lights of the people on the shore are reflected in the water, Blurry and twinkling. The small boat with fishing lights in the water, Together with the green mountains hidden in the night, It's like a shallow dream. There are many inns on the Five Mile Long Street, You must find a small inn to stay in, Feel the quiet atmosphere of the ancient town. Listening to the sound of the waterfall, you must sleep well. ✅Must experience: Visit the Tusi Xinggong Tusi Xinggong was the Xinggong established by the Tusi King in Furong Town, Close to the waterfall. The entire building complex is like "growing" on the cliff, The eaves are high, like a group of eagles overlooking the abyss, and there is also the posture of a dragon and a tiger. Because it is cool and comfortable here in summer, The 800-year-old Tusi Wang Dynasty set up a summer palace here. The Tujia architecture is different from the Han, The Tusi Xinggong does not pay so much attention to symmetry, Here are green bricks and black tiles, flying eaves and corners, There is a strong Tujia flavor. Song Zuying once shot the MV for the song here. Green vines hang on the cliffs, and the green is stacked. The pouring waterfall and the sparkling water surface, Reflecting the swaying and hazy lights of ten thousand families, The flow of light is overflowing, like the palace in the sky~ .
