Some people may not necessarily know about Xijin Du Ancient Street in Zhenjiang, but it must be known to all to mention an ancient poem related to it. There are only a few heavy mountains separated by Zhongshan in the waterway of Guazhou, Jingkou. Spring breeze is on the South Bank of the Green River. When will the moon shine on me? In the spring of the first year of Song Xining, Wang Anshi was called to Beijing by boat wharf. It was this ferry to Xijin. From Xijin to Yangzhou, when the boat arrived at Guazhou, he saw the scenery and wrote a famous poem "berthing Guazhou". Xijin Du, located at the foot of Yuntai Mountain in the west of Zhenjiang City, is a historical relic built on the ramp road. Xijin Du Ancient Street is the most preserved, concentrated and intact area of Zhenjiang cultural relics. It is the "context" of the famous historical and cultural city of Zhenjiang. The old ferry in Xijin was originally an ancient ferry, but since the Yangtze River rose in the South and collapsed in the north, it was originally the location of the river water, and gradually formed a road. The old ferry can no longer see the Yangtze River water. The famous Jinling Ferry of Zhenjiang in Tang Dynasty was called Jinling Ferry. At that time, many great poets such as Li Bai and Meng Haoran were waiting for the ferry. Qiaoge, eaves, carved window lattices, green bricks, green tiles, bluestone slab road; into Xijin Du, into the millennium old street that began in the Six Dynasties, is from the noisy prosperity, into the quiet simplicity. Founded in the Tang Dynasty "Xiaoshanlou" site, it is an inn for the ancients to live in when they are waiting to cross. After thousands of years, the small hill building retains its original hotel function. However, the brick-and-wood structure of the Ming and Qing folk houses in the south of the Yangtze River has become an International Youth Hostel beloved by donkey friends, and also a good place for young literary and artistic people to visit ancient times. Xijin Du is ancient and historical; Xijin Du is young and modern. Walking among them gives people a sense of leisure and tranquility. Here, we can temporarily get rid of the noise of the city and return to the simplicity of nature. Tips - "best season - "all seasons are suitable. Suggestions for play - "2 hours ticket - "30 yuan (no scenic spots, no tickets) opening time - "all-day address - "the foothills of Yuntai Mountain on the west side of Zhenjiang

    ⛩️西津渡,位于镇江城西的云台山麓,是依附于破山栈道而建的一处历史遗迹。🗽西津渡古街始创于六朝时期,历经唐宋元明清五个朝代的建设,留下了如今的规模,因此,整条街随处可见六朝至清代的历史踪迹。🏯西津渡古街,青石板路面上深深浅浅的车辙,足以证明这千年古渡、千年老街当年的繁华!🕒半天的西津渡古街游玩,有一眼千年的感触。走在古朴雅致的古街道上,仿佛是在一座天然历史博物馆内散步。🚩古街上有吃有玩,有邮局、古董店、小吃店……当然最有名的就是镇江香醋啦!去镇江怎么能不买醋呢?还有古街上一定要暖暖的吃一碗传说中的锅盖面🍜

    At a glance, the millennium ~ Zhenjiang Xijindu ⛲️ Xijindu was founded in the three countries. This is the Yangtze River Ferry, the traffic throat, and the only ferry to Jiangbei. Xijindu is different from other Jiangnan towns. There is no water here, full of blue stone roads and blue brick city walls. In the softness of the traditional Jiangnan town, it is harder and more unique. Today, Xijindu has downplayed the function of the ferry, strolling in the simple and elegant ancient streets, leisurely slow pace of life, very recommended.

    The blue brick and gray tile houses are large, with slabs paving the road and antique. The different styles of shops also create a strong and elegant business atmosphere, which is really unique.

    A very uncommercial ancient town, there are not many shops, and the popularity is really not strong. If you want to experience the feeling of Bao Ancient Town, then come to Xijindu! If it is not Friday, Saturday, plus rain, most stores will be closed at 5 or 6 pm, very deserted. If it doesn't rain on Friday and Saturday, there is a night market! We stayed for 3 days, 2 days rain, and the sun father-in-law finally went to work on the last day, and it felt much better. If you want to see the whole picture, you can climb halfway up the mountain, without climbing to Yuntai Pavilion. It's just mosquitoes that's quite a lot... a few pictures of the kung fu, two legs of the bag...
