With a single phrase, 'Spring is not late,' I find myself truly in the south of the Yangtze
Xinchang, historically prosperous due to salt, is now one of the few ancient towns in Shanghai, quietly nestled in its own corner. A single Xinchang Street runs through the entire ancient town, but it is divided into North Street and South Street by a horizontal road. The commercial activities are mainly concentrated in the north, where most tourists gather, while the southern part is more original. At the end of South Street, there is a Nanshan Temple said to be 600 years old, but judging by the building itself, it must have been newly constructed in recent years. Besides the central old street, the more interesting part of the ancient town is the leisure street along the river. The further you go, the fewer tourists there are, and it is very peaceful.
The most famous building in the ancient town is the No.1 Teahouse. Many films and TV dramas have been shot here, among which 'Lust, Caution' is the most well-known. The scene between Tony Leung and Tang Wei was filmed on the second floor of this riverside teahouse. Now, you can also sit in the seats where the two stars once sat, lean against the window, order a pot of clear tea, and leisurely watch the comings and goings on the bridge below. If you encounter a rainy day, the atmosphere is even more enchanting. Chicken broth tofu, yellow croaker wontons, and peach blossom pastries are specialties of the teahouse. A bowl of chicken broth tofu is substantial, but the taste is not particularly outstanding; what you pay for here is the environment. It is worth mentioning that the postal code of Xinchang ancient town is 201314, which has a beautiful implication. You can buy a postcard on the first floor and send it to your loved one; the mailbox is just 50 meters outside the door.
For those who like coffee, there is a good place called One Foot Garden, located on the edge of the ancient town. The interior mostly uses original wood-colored tables, chairs, and cabinets, with warm light from small lamps, and large green plants everywhere, creating a cozy atmosphere. Perhaps to meet the needs of customers who hold events, in addition to private rooms, there is even a separate projection room. If you prefer outdoor seating, you can also sit in the courtyard's atrium. Around mealtime, there are many restaurants in the ancient town, most of which offer similar farmhouse dishes. Soup pork skin, white-cut chicken, steamed three delicacies, goose liver, and so on, are almost standard in every restaurant, but there are slight differences in taste due to the different chefs' techniques. Shiwu Xuan is a good choice, especially their pork skin, which is very delicious.
Before leaving the ancient town, you can also buy some local specialties, such as grass head cakes, large meat zongzi, shumai, and salted meat, which are quite popular with tourists. Compared to these, it feels more genuine to buy fresh vegetables like fava beans sold by farmers along the street.
Transportation: Line 16 has already opened Xinchang Station, but it is still about 3 kilometers away from the ancient town.
Tickets: There is no admission fee for the ancient town, but some memorial halls in the town require tickets.

Xinchang Ancient Town is located in Pudong New District, an ancient town that is thriving due to salt and facing the sea. After thousands of years of changes, it is a rare traditional water town with complete preservation in Shanghai. It is worth visiting.
I visited Xinchang Ancient Town twice a few years ago, and although the ancient town was already connected to the subway, there were not many tourists and there were no other than two streets, and there were not many shops. Since many film and television dramas came here to take pictures, and the ancient town of Zhaojialou was temporarily closed after accepting many merchants, it became more and more lively, and the intersection of driving into the parking lot was queued for a long time to enter. [Chicken soup tofu] can be said to be the most famous snack, plus a chicken soup, even if the ancient town is not white, the popularity of food is very popular. [Sanlin Benggua] is a variety that is rarely seen in the city. Almost seeing tourists have one hand. It feels good to buy a home. The melon of the yellow sac is indeed not eaten many times. It can be said that the ancient town of Xinchang has now become a very good attraction worth visiting in Shanghai.
Where to go during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday can be relaxed and leisurely ❓ real name Amway Xinchang Ancient Town, it is best to eat the ancient town. When I heard the ancient town, the first impression of most people must be: the same pattern, tasteless food. Burning goose, Xinchang Ancient Town is really different ❗️ Although it is also an old street store model for Xiaoqiao Liushui people, almost all of them have their own good food, each wonderful, real food paradise. 🏡 Attractions: The first floor of Hongfu Bridge is definitely a landmark building in Xinchang Ancient Town. It has been opened in a lively teahouse for more than 100 years, and has also had a thrilling red mission. It has been selected by many film directors as a location for shooting. The "Chinese Luogu Painting and Calligraphy Museum" art museum is more mini size, but the display of exhibits, acoustic and photoelectric displays, have helped visitors to further understand the local music of the new venue. At the end of the ancient town of Xinchang, the "Nanshan Ancient Temple" also hides a 700-year-old ancient Buddhist temple. Because of the inaccessibility of tourists, this place is a very pure quiet atmosphere. 🚗 Transportation accommodation: 🅿️ Xinchang Ancient Town, which is mainly on Xinchang Street, has parking lots at various entrances and exits. Although the area is not large, it is almost not full. 🚇 Public transportation is recommended to transfer to Xinchang Station of Metro Line 16 to the bus, and all cars parked in the ancient town are fine. And get off the subway station escalator, which is the bus station, completely seamless. 🏨 Xinchang Ancient Town is not big, but if you want to play more calmly, you need to stay nearby for one night. The "Shanghai Zhongyou City Marriott Hotel" that has been punched many times, it will be picked here again. Absolutely new field ancient town around zui cost-effective five-star hotel, new facilities & service, Tai 🉑️🍜 food recommendation: "Kang Auntie dumplings" a small shop far from the main line of Xinchang Street, the taste is seconds killing all dumplings on the street. The oily grass head meat is completely satisfying. "Bamboo branch bean Zhangji" is the only authentic old-fashioned chicken soup tofu flower in the ancient town, invincible and smooth taste. Not only tofu flower, white chopped chicken and wild stew are delicious enough, but also not to be missed. "Shunrong Food" is another old roast wheat store with its own signature, not the same sand roast wheat, but the only: Shunrong roast wheat. All kinds of fresh meat stew, salted egg yolk, bean paste stuffing, all delicious to burst. The "grass head tattling cake" signboard owes the husband and wife shop, only selling grass head tattling cakes, oil piers and seagull cakes, but insisting that each one is now sold, and the two elderly people are full of sincerity. The "grass house" long-term angshin fish vegetable rice, sold out, lost the first time punching in. Fortunately, the latter two times were serious early, the delicious fish of Angbang, mixed with the salty fragrance of lard rice, really a must. 📌 TIPS: 1⃣️ The first floor and the Yugushu Art Museum can be reserved in advance, and you can visit it for free if you go on time. The visit experience on the first floor is particularly unforgettable. The intimate arrangement of the explanation teacher is too praise. 2⃣️ Xinchang Ancient Town has too many limited foods, so check in as early as possible. Sour experience sharing
Xinchang Ancient Town for a half-day tour, this time I came here by tourist bus. The facade of the parking lot is carefully built at first glance. It is the ancient town to wear out from the small alley. The commercial atmosphere of Xinchang Street is still relatively strong. Each household sells its own signature products. If you want to walk to the ancient town, you can feel a different atmosphere. The ancient town is full of food. I tasted bamboo shoots and bean curds, Jiang San's stinky tofu, and Chen's mother's store's Malantou meat dumplings and Xiasha roast wheat. It was quite leisurely to eat and stroll all the way. Similar to other ancient towns in Shanghai. Going deep and walking, the shooting location of Wang Manni's home in "Thirty Only" was a surprise for this trip. There are several public toilets in the ancient town, and the facilities are quite complete.
The old town of Xinchang was not bad, and I always felt better than the Jiajia Building. There are scenery and business, and there are not many people suitable for hanging out with family and friends. Since the renovation of the Jiajia Building, the department has moved here. Under the hype of the network, the price is now higher than before. It is also a lot more chaotic than before, the passenger flow on weekdays is also very large, and there are many tour groups. From parking 🅿, the flow of people began to be crowded. Some shops were under the coax of the network, and they needed to queue [dazed] so the obvious experience was really much worse. This tour is 1/17 Wednesday, this person [embarrassed] [embarrassed] [embarrassed] parked around a big circle, waited for nearly half an hour before stopping. So don't go on Saturday and Sunday.
