This is Xiaoshu’s travel wandering house, watch the world with me.

The rhythm of visiting the ancient town has always been slow, and it is also a comfortable rhythm in spring. Perhaps it is to welcome tourists from all over the world who come to eat loquats. The enthusiasm moved the temperature and directly hit the mark of summer. However, it did not affect our mood of slowly visiting the ancient town, perhaps this is another feeling.

Tangqi has a long history. It was once a place where merchants gathered. It is a veritable big town. In the ancient town of Tangqi, there is a museum that tells the local history and stories of Tangqi-Fangzhiguan. If you are just strolling along the riverside under the blue tiles and white walls, you may feel that it is just the quiet atmosphere of the ancient town, and the peace you seek in your heart. But walking into the local chronicles pavilion can really make you understand this ancient town.

As the head of the “Top Ten Famous Towns in the South of the Yangtze River”, Tangqi has a profound cultural heritage and many scholars have emerged. Tangqi is home to many cultural relics, including the Guangji Long Bridge, Guo Pu Ancient Well, Qianlong Royal Stele, Shuinan Temple… and tells people the style of the past. Tangqi is not only an outstanding place, but also rich in products. Loquat is famous all over the world, silk fragrant overseas, and it has been a tribute town since ancient times.

Tangqi is an ancient town and a new city at the same time. Although it has lost the “36-Six Bridges” and “72-Tiao Ban Nongs” after the vicissitudes of time, her soul and roots are still there, and it is still full of vitality. And vitality. There are also many models combined with 3 technologies on display in the museum, which more vividly show the past and present of the ancient town of Tangqi.

The appearance of the ancient town of Tangqi after years of change.

Starting from the Guangji Bridge, this masterpiece of ancient bridge architecture connects the two banks of the ancient town of Tangqi and stands on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.

As the only remaining seven-hole stone arch bridge on the ancient canal, it also assumes the most important building between the two banks. No matter where you go along the river, you have to go back to Guangji Bridge if you want to cross the other bank.

Suddenly, the water lilies under the bridge rushed to bloom, light pink and white, dotted on the river bank, ripples, all adding vitality to this ancient town.

Next to the Guangji Bridge is the ancient well of Guo Pu, built by the Eastern Jin writer Guo Pu. The river whose water depth exceeds that of the Tangxi River was excavated as a water supply site at that time, so it is now fenced off and used as a cultural relics protection site.

The Qianlong Royal Stele is on the west side of Jesus Church on Shuibei Street. Since it is the Qianlong Royal Stele, it was naturally erected during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. In fact, this imperial stele in Tangqi serves as a demarcation stele. In the past, Shuibei Street was under the jurisdiction of Deqing and Hangxian counties. With this monument as the boundary, Hangzhou County is located on the east of the monument, and Deqing County is located on the west of the monument.

If you are hungry, you might as well come to Shuibei Street to taste the local delicacies here. The old street is more than one kilometer away, and there are gatherings of Tangqi folk food, intangible cultural heritage display, traditional folk art display, traditional folk art display, and traditional silk. Cultural display…rich food and folklore, just an old street makes people linger.

The most delicious food on the old street is the mochi. All kinds of mochi can’t help but swallow. There are also steamed meatballs, turquoise loquat, zongzi, etc., from the street to the end of the street, from the end of the street to the street.

If you are interested in storytelling in the south of the Yangtze River, you might as well go to the Tangqi Tea House and spend 20 yuan for tea money, and listen to the storytellers here, telling stories about the family stories that happened in this small town.

Listening to storytelling is not just about listening. Yan Yi of the storyteller can be said to be very hard, and a piece of it is an emoticon. However, the storytelling here is all in the ancient town dialect. For outsiders, it is still a bit confusing, so the old people in the teahouse are more of the town.

Compared to the rhythm of the day, it is more suitable to visit the ancient town at night. The ancient town of Tangqi at night has a more mysterious flavor than during the day. There are fewer people, the lights are on, and the river is brightened by lanterns on both sides of the river. , There are waves of gentle singing in the clear bar on the other side. I like the ancient town, probably because I like this atmosphere.

The ancient town at night faded from the heat of the day and returned to a hint of coolness. The breeze blew across the creek, blowing on the face, and the refreshing taste surrounded him. At this moment, walking by the river should be the most comfortable time of the day.

Although there are many auras on her head: the top thousand towns in the country, the civilized towns in Zhejiang Province, the top 100 towns in Zhejiang Province with comprehensive strength, the top ten historical and cultural towns in Zhejiang Province, the top ten towns in Hangzhou for economic development, and the national loquat origin protection town… …But she is still that simple and ancient town, warming the years of history with her own softness. So have you been to Tangxi Ancient Town in Hangzhou? Do you know which niche ancient towns are still hidden in Hangzhou? Welcome to leave a message and express your opinion.
