Guangyuan Zhaohua Ancient City, a journey through the past to converse with history. Address: Zhaohua Town, Zhaohua District, Guangyuan City, Sichuan Admission: Free entry to the ancient city; 40 yuan per ticket to visit the city wall and other attractions 🍱 Food: Specialty dishes include walnut crisp and bean curd fish Scenery: Zhaohua Ancient City has four main streets and five alleys, all paved with local green sandstone slabs in a style that follows the natural slope with a higher middle and lower sides, resembling the ridge of a roof. The streets and alleys are interconnected in a 'Ding' shape, featuring a military defense characteristic of 'interlocking roads without facing city gates'. Along the ancient streets, there are well-preserved Ming and Qing dynasty buildings, mostly of the through-mortise-and-tenon wood structure, with small green tiles and simple Northern Sichuan-style residential houses. The commercialization is not severe, and many local original products are affordably priced. You can buy a ticket to climb the city tower for a panoramic view of the ancient city. During the day, there are plenty of food and fun in the East Market, and it's near the river, making it a nice place to play in the water in summer; at night, the West Market is lit with big red lanterns and various lights, transporting you back to the nights of ancient times.

Zhaohua Ancient Town is not very large, and there aren't many places to visit, but besides Jianmen Pass, it's still worth a trip when in Guangyuan. The only three-star hotel is affordable, with a beautiful environment, and it's very comfortable to stay in. The staff provides excellent service. There are many picking greenhouses near Zhaohua Ancient Town, with a variety of fruits and vegetables like strawberries, which are delicious when freshly picked, but the prices are slightly high. Especially since the cost is calculated based on the picking price, which is a bit too much. In the spirit of having fun, I didn't mind, but friends who come to pick next time should ask more questions to avoid any unpleasantness. Two or three days are enough to enjoy Zhaohua, and it's especially suitable for taking photos. Boys bringing their beautiful other halves to the ancient town for a photoshoot will definitely get great shots. As for food, there doesn't seem to be anything particularly memorable.

There are many ancient towns and cities in China, and I have been to many of them, but Zhaohua Ancient City in Guangyuan left a deep impression on me. This is a genuine ancient city with city towers, city walls, county yamen, tribute institutes, city god temples, and celebrity relics. But what impressed me the most is that the backdrop of the ancient city is a series of high mountains, with the Jialing River passing by, which is no worse than Langzhong Ancient City.

In the evening, you can choose a restaurant in these ethnic houses to eat, the local dishes are grilled fish, and of course there are hot pots. 👉The southernmost part of the ancient city has a section of the Han Dynasty city wall, which looks relatively low, probably because it has been too long, it is precarious, and it has been preserved for two thousand years, which is really not easy.
