Unwind after work!

Unwind after work!

Recommended reasons Heshun Ancient Town, a "gentle water town" embraced by volcanoes, boasts a 600-year history and a vibrant slow-paced life. It blends Central Plains culture, Western culture, and caravan culture. Even the architecture is a hybrid of Chinese and Western styles—white walls and black tiles of Hui-style architecture paired with South Asian carved ironwork. Every photo you take here looks like a movie still. Stroll through the century-old food street in the morning and enjoy thin bean flour, spend the afternoon sipping coffee at Shushu Bookstore while waiting for the sunset, and soak in a private hot spring at night while gazing at the stars... It's simply a "spiritual healing center" for workers! 📍Location 4 km southwest of Tengchong City, Yunnan Province. Search for "Heshun Ancient Town" on your navigation app. (Locals like to call it "Yangwendun". Because the river surrounds the village, its original name was "Heshun", which was later refined to "Shi He Min Shun", meaning "harmony between scholars and people".) 🚗Transportation - Airplane: Fly to Tengchong Tuofeng Airport, then take a 20-min taxi ride directly to the town (approx. CNY 30). - Car: Approx. 15 mins from downtown Tengchong. There is a parking lot at the entrance to the scenic area. - Bus: Take Bus No. 6 from downtown to "Heshun Ancient Town Station". The fare is CNY 2. (⚠️There are many stone-paved roads in the ancient town, so comfortable shoes are recommended!) 🌟Must-see attractions 1. Heshun Library - The largest rural library in China, housing 70,000 ancient books. Even Hu Shi inscribed its name! The main building features wooden eaves. The window seats on the second floor offer a bird's-eye view of the entire ancient town. A must-visit for literary and artistic youth. 2. Shuang Hong Qiao (Twin Rainbow Bridge) + Wild Duck Lake - The first sight of these two Qing Dynasty stone arch bridges is breathtaking! The white walls and black tiles are reflected in the stream below. In the morning mist, it looks like an ink painting. Cross the bridge to reach Wild Duck Lake, where egrets and wild ducks play. You won't want to leave after relaxing by the lake. 3. Eight Grand Ancestral Halls - The European-style carved gatehouse of the Cun Clan Ancestral Hall is stunning, and the Liu Clan Ancestral Hall houses centuries-old caravan artifacts. Each ancestral hall is like a family epic. It is recommended to join a guided tour. 4. Thousand-Hand Guanyin Ancient Tree Cluster - Seven ancient camphor trees with intertwined roots and branches form a canopy that blocks out the sky and sun. This is the filming location of the movie *My Chief and My Regiment*. It's a perfect spot for taking atmospheric photos on a rainy day. 5. Yuanlong Pavilion - A Ming Dynasty Taoist temple combining three religions, backed by Heilong Mountain and facing the emerald Dragon Pool. When red carp swim across the water, you might feel like you've arrived at Rurikoin Temple in Kyoto. 🎫Tickets - CNY 55 for unlimited entry within 7 days! Includes access to the library, ancestral halls, and other attractions. - Free entry before 8am/after 7pm (but some attractions are not open). - Half price for students/seniors, free for children under 1.2m. 🍜Foodie Guide Thin bean flour: Perfect with fried dough sticks! Mu Cui's, featured on *A Bite of China*, is the most authentic. Pine flower cake: The top layer of pine pollen is slightly bitter, and the bottom layer of red bean paste is smooth. CNY 3 per piece, wrapped in banana leaves. - Tounao (Shrovetide Porridge): Sweet wine, poached eggs + fried糍粑 (sticky rice cake). It is said to be a "son-in-law certification dish". 📌Other Tips 1. Avoid crowds: - Go to Shuang Hong Qiao at 7am to capture the wonderland without crowds. Tour groups usually leave after 3pm. Watch egrets return to their nests at Wild Duck Lake in the evening. 2. Hidden gems: - Every Saturday is market day! Locals carry bamboo baskets to sell mountain goods, like traveling back to the 1980s. - Find a teahouse to listen to caravan stories, or experience the intangible cultural heritage of shadow puppetry.

Trekking Adventure in Gaoligong Mountain

Trekking Adventure in Gaoligong Mountain

If you have always longed for an in-depth conversation with nature, then go trekking in Gaoligong Mountain in Tengchong to explore this mysterious and beautiful land. 🏔️Gaoligong Mountain, like the backbone of the earth, stretches across this magical land of Tengchong. The moment I set foot on this land, I was overwhelmed by its majestic aura. 🚶‍♂️We started from the city to Gaoligong Mountain. At first, the mountain road was relatively flat, but as we went deeper, the challenges gradually emerged. The soil underfoot was soft and slippery, and every step needed to be taken with caution. 🌳Along the winding path, we were surrounded by dense forests. Tall trees soared into the sky, and sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, creating patches of dappled light and shadow. The air was filled with the fresh scent of grass and wood, making one want to take deep breaths. 💧On the way, we passed by a crystal-clear stream. The water flowed gently, icy cold. I couldn't resist scooping up a handful of water to wash the sweat off my face, feeling instantly refreshed. 🌈Halfway through, a spectacular waterfall came into view. The waterfall cascaded down like a galaxy, splashing water everywhere, producing a deafening roar. The mist from the waterfall filled the air, forming a beautiful rainbow. Standing in front of the waterfall, feeling the powerful spray and impact, I was deeply moved, as the power of nature was fully displayed at this moment. 🐿️Fortunately, we also saw many cute little animals. Agile squirrels jumped between the branches, as if welcoming us, the visitors from afar. 🌄When we reached the top of the mountain, the scenery before us was mesmerizing. The continuous mountain ranges overlapped, and the sea of clouds rolled between the mountains, making it feel like being in a fairyland. The distant villages were faintly visible, and at that moment, my heart was filled with awe and gratitude for nature. 📝Trekking Tips: 👕Clothing: Choose lightweight, breathable, and windproof clothing, and bring a warm jacket, as the temperature on the mountain can vary greatly. 🥾Shoes: Professional trekking shoes are crucial, providing good support and anti-slip performance. ps: The trekking route I chose this time offers a chance to enjoy volcanic stone-grilled meat and fruits to replenish energy midway, which is perfect for a rest and a perfect experience. 🏕️Trekking in Gaoligong Mountain is a dual cleansing of body and soul. Here, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, you become one with nature, feeling its power and beauty. It is an unforgettable journey, and I look forward to the next encounter.

Tengchong is a must-stay hotel, cafes and book bars make me completely sink

Tengchong's newly opened store 🌵Highlights: 1️⃣Good location, close to everywhere Located in the main urban area of Tengchong, diagonally opposite the passenger station, it is close to everywhere. It is 4.5 kilometers to Heshun Ancient City, 10 minutes by car. 3.5 kilometers away from the National Martyrs Cemetery, 8 minutes by car. 9 kilometers away from Rehai Scenic Area, 12 minutes by car. 2️⃣Urban living space creation In addition to accommodation, they have turned the public space into a living space. There are cafes, pubs, book bars, restaurants. Guests staying in the hotel are given a free cup of coffee, which is very nice. The taste and texture are not bad. They have made two book bars, one is a step-style book bar, and the other is a cylindrical book bar, which is very photogenic inside. Haha, absolutely out of the picture. 3️⃣The room area is large, and the small details are humanized The room area is very large, and it feels a bit empty for one person to live in. The room design is very different from traditional hotels, and it is very comfortable to live in. There are many humanized details in the design, such as small hooks in the bathroom, etc., which are great. Real check-in sharing, recommended.

Inadvertently stumbled into Van Gogh's oil painting

Inadvertently stumbled into Van Gogh's oil painting

Encountering a sea of rapeseed flowers beneath the Gaoligong Mountains In Tengchong, Yunnan, the Gaoligong Mountains lie like a giant dragon across the horizon. At the foot of the mountains, a sea of rapeseed flowers stretches out like a golden tapestry woven by nature. With every gentle breeze, waves of flowers ripple, whispering tales of the land's deep affection and the tenderness of time. As you approach the sea of flowers along the winding path, a rich, sweet fragrance fills the air. This is the unique aroma of spring, carrying the warmth of the sun and the earthiness of the soil. It permeates your senses, instantly dispelling the fatigue and distractions of the world. Stepping into the rapeseed field, you are surrounded by golden blossoms, like stars fallen to earth. They rise and fall in a staggered arrangement, each holding four delicate petals that tremble gently in the breeze, as if whispering or laughing. The slender yet resilient stems support the brilliant flower heads, reflecting a soft glow in the sunlight, as if draping the land in a golden veil. Looking out into the distance, the Gaoligong Mountains and the sea of rapeseed flowers complement each other perfectly. The mountains, majestic and serene, have stood the test of time, guarding this land. The flowers, bright and vibrant, bloom in full glory in the spring, adding vitality to the earth. With the green mountains as a backdrop and the sea of flowers as a stage, a breathtaking landscape painting unfolds. The distant mountains appear and disappear in the clouds and mist, resembling celestial palaces, contrasting with the earthly beauty of the rapeseed flowers, creating a scene that is both ethereal and grounded. Visitors stroll through the sea of flowers, pausing to take photos, their faces beaming with happiness and enchantment. Children frolic and run among the flowers, their laughter ringing like silver bells, startling flocks of colorful butterflies that dance among the blossoms, adding a touch of magic to the scene. Villagers in traditional clothing work in the fields, their figures blending seamlessly with the sea of flowers, forming a beautiful picture of harmony between humans and nature. The sea of rapeseed flowers beneath the Gaoligong Mountains is a masterpiece of nature, a poem of time. Here, the heart finds its resting place, and the soul merges with nature. Every breath is filled with the power of life; every gaze becomes an eternal memory. This sea of flowers is not only a visual feast but also a solace for the soul, making people linger and revel in the endless spring scenery.

HeShun Library

HeShun Library

HeShun Library is the cultural benchmark of the ancient town, with a style of architecture from the Republic of China era. Two ancient plum trees lean across, ethereal and beautiful. It is said that the library used to order books and newspapers through fellow townspeople living in Burma, transported by waterway from Shanghai to Yangon, and then transferred to HeShun. The arrival time was twice as fast as domestic postal services, so the library surprisingly became the most informed news and cultural center at the time. Inside the library, there are plaques from famous people like Hu Shi, and it is said to even house a set of the original 'Complete Library in Four Sections'. For a rural library, this is quite impressive.
