Jinggang Ancient Town Review

Jinggang, equivalent to the status of Changsha's back garden, the bluestone road in the ancient town, filled with rice tofu, stinky tofu, small dumpling sweet wine, fried fish, sweet potato chips, sesame bean tea taste, leisurely strolling in the small street of the ancient town, a scene, away from the noise of the city, alone this bustling place, I recommend everyone to come to Changsha to take a look here.

You can buy a 50 yuan package on the spot. In fact, only 3 attractions are really charged! Shadow play and Qinglou are worth seeing, other attractions are basically soy sauce! The whole ancient town is about two hours slow and almost finished!

The ancient town of Jinggang has pleasant scenery, antique, historical and cultural heritage, fresh air, few people and beautiful scenery, strong fun, strolling around the ancient town, eating local food, feeling the local customs, very good.

[View] Jinggang Ancient Town is located in Wangcheng County, Changsha City. It takes an hour to drive from the city center, suitable for a day trip. The main street of Jinggang Ancient Town is the characteristic of the ancient town. This main street witnesses the commercial prosperity that every ancient town must have. The characteristics of the house and local specialties can be taken more pictures. We also ate local specialties of rice tofu, Jinggang Xianggan and ice jelly at noon, which is delicious and not expensive. [Cost-effective] No money is required to enter the ancient town. If you want to enter some attractions, you need to charge, and the price is different. [Interesting] Recommend two small attractions. If you want to see the shadow puppet drama, go to Jinggang Shadow Puppet Art Museum, 15 yuan for the shadow puppet Art Museum, and you can also watch a shadow puppet drama, half an hour, and watch the time in advance. If you want to enjoy the chairman's poetry and calligraphy, you can go to Chairman Mao's handwriting museum, the ticket is 5 yuan. If you need to visit, you can buy a pass ticket for about 60 yuan.

Jinggang was originally named Lujiang, Tang Dynasty general Li Jing once stationed here, because of its good military management, never harassing people, so later people changed the name of Jinggang. Jinggang Town is located on the west bank of the Xiangjiang River, and has the advantage of water transportation since ancient times. It was once a prosperous merchant port for the distribution of Sanxiang materials. It is known as "Xiaohankou". Jinggang Town was once one of the four rice cities in Hunan, and one of the main distribution ports in Huaiyan in the province. The merchants gathered and the market was active. At that time, there was a folk song saying: "The boat to Jingjiangkou, the wind is not going", indicating the prosperity of Jinggang Town at that time. Jinggang Town has retained a lot of Qing Dynasty buildings, there are ancient station, ancient street, ancient workshop, etc., of which the most eye-catching is the ancient Qinglou known as Hongtaifang. It is said that the tax of Qinglou was once the second largest income of Jinggang Town. The renovation of the Qinglou has caused a lot of controversy, and finally, in the spirit of restoring history and respecting history, the Qinglou has been repaired more thoroughly. The layout of the ancient town is "Eighth Street, Four Lanes and Seven Wharf", most of the attractions are along an old street along the river bank, the old street east-west, composed of "food security street", "half street", "health street", "security street" from west to east, the total length of 1275 meters. Eight of the ten attractions in Jinggang Ancient Town are on the old street, which are: Guanyin Temple, Ironware Cultural Museum, former site of the Hunan Provincial Committee of the former Communist Party of China, Hongtaifang, Jinggang Shadow Puppet Art Museum, Bayuantang, Jiangnan Folk Cultural Relics, Wuyuan.
