Qianyang Ancient City is located in Hongjiang City, Huaihua, Hunan Province. It is one of the well-preserved ancient cities of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in China, surrounded by water on three sides, at the confluence of the Yuanjiang and Wushui Rivers. The ancient city has a long history. As early as the early Western Han Dynasty, Tan Cheng County was set up here, renamed Longbiao County in the Tang Dynasty, and Qianyang County in the Song Dynasty. The famous Tang Dynasty poet Wang Changling, who was demoted to Longbiao County at that time, wrote 'Furong Building to Send Xin Jian', leaving the eternal verse 'A piece of ice heart in the jade pot'. Furong Building became famous for this. There is an ancient building called 'Festival Filial Piety Temple' on Beizheng Street, which was built in 1723. It was once a temple for the worship of the virtuous women and filial sons of Qianyang Ancient Town throughout the dynasties. It still preserves a plaque encouraging women. During the Republic of China, it was Dai Li's temporary residence and the Qianyang County 'People's Anti-Japanese Aid Association'. There are many ancient relics on both sides of the street, among which the most famous are the county government, the academy, the Confucian temple, the martial temple ruins, etc., which are listed in an orderly manner. The smooth and washed bluestone slabs on the ancient street tell the story and vicissitudes of a thousand years. Walking slowly, it seems that the sound of horse hooves is echoing under your feet, and the sound of camel bells is echoing in your ears, as if there is the lyricism of the guzheng, the noise of the suona, the confession of the huqin, the anger of the pipa, and the sobbing of the sheng and xiao. The most famous snack spring roll that has been on the central station is sold at the entrance of the ancient city. There are 2 shops, mainly for the neighbors to eat. The whole ancient city has a very light commercial atmosphere, and people enjoy the slow time in the ancient city peacefully. 📍Detailed address: Qianyang Ancient City: Qiancheng Town, Hongjiang City, Huaihua City, Hunan Province Ticket: 55 yuan / person

City C Debut Plan | Jingzhou, Hunan, the hometown of bayberry

| Jingzhou, Hunan, the hometown of bayberry. Jingzhou, Hunan, is not well-known, but it has a long history. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it became a major commercial town at the border of Hunan, Guizhou, and Guangxi provinces due to its geographical advantages. However, as times changed and waterways were no longer the main means of transportation, it became a leisurely small town hidden in the mountains that few people knew about. Today, the only traces of history that can be touched in Jingzhou city are basically the Tuqiao Street and He Street, the mottled old houses and alleys, and the colorful glutinous rice drying in front of the houses; there are also the wharfs, the old stilted buildings, the renovated guild halls, and one can vaguely recall the past glory from them. The street is not long, and at the end you can see the long Qujiang River. The bluestone slabs of the Ma Wang Bridge are still there. Eating a bowl of handmade ice powder at the small stall at the head of the bridge and chatting with the old people, it seems like you are still living in that simple era. Wangjiang Tower, as one of the city landmarks, has a good night view. It is diagonally opposite to the Jiangdong Wind and Rain Bridge, which is a good place to sit leisurely. The floating bridge in the river under the bridge, although rebuilt, is a great restoration of the appearance at that time. It is convenient for people on both sides to come and go daily, and it is also a good place for leisure and sightseeing. The only regret is that although it is an autonomous county of the Miao and Dong ethnic groups, you have to go to a slightly farther village to feel the original ethnic customs. 🚗Transportation strategy: Take a train from Chongqing or Huaihua, Guangxi, get off at Jingzhou Station, and there are buses to the city area, in fact, it is not far to walk. 🌟Local must-visit: Fei Mountain, Dishun Miao Village, Yanjiao Dong Village, etc. 🍲Food recommendation: Jingzhou is the "hometown of Chinese bayberry" and "hometown of Poria", the local specialties mainly include: carved honey preserves, bayberry wine, bayberry dried fruit, Poria crisp cake, pickled vegetables, all are quite convenient to take home.
