I recommend the free ancient town of Guangzhou over places with wind
Come to Guangzhou, and don't miss this ancient town,
which was established during the Southern Song Dynasty and has a history of over 800 years. This low-key ancient town has preserved about 400 ancient buildings from the Ming, Qing, and Republic of China periods. It's not very big, but it's especially characteristic of Lingnan! The highlight is that there's no admission fee!

The ancient town is simple and quiet, long-standing and friendly, ancient and gentle.
The walls, mottled with age, are etched with the cracks of old 🎏,
and the buildings' antiquity is like a book, upon careful appreciation you will find
the wok-ear walls, Manchu windows, and colored stone carvings are all treasures
.
📍Liugeng Hall: The Shawan clan's ancestral hall of the He family, a typical example of local rural ancestral hall architectural design in Guangdong.
.
📍Wenfeng Tower: This hexagonal three-story tower is not only the geomantic architecture of the He clan's Liugeng Hall but also worships the 'scholarly tyrant', and many people come here to pray for academic progress.
.
📍He Shaoxia's Former Residence: A Guangzhou cultural heritage site, where He Shaoxia collected a large number of Guangdong music documents, musical instruments, letters, etc. Especially valuable are the Guangdong music gongche notation manuscripts, which are rare materials in the history of Guangdong music in the world today.

In this fast-paced era, it's suitable for a leisurely weekend stroll with family and friends, and wearing Hanfu to take photos in the alleys is also very photogenic~
The ancient town has a beautiful environment, you can feel the ancient fishing and farming civilization and imperial examination culture in Lingnan area, and you can feel the strong local spirit of home and country when you visit the academician memorial hall. Walk in the ancient town, enjoy the treasures of Lingnan culture and enjoy the millennium civilization.
It is the best combination of food and humanities. Several folk museums in Shawan are still worth punching in, especially the Left Gengtang, which is the cornerstone of Shawan's humanities. It is the Yinde accumulated by the first officials of Shawan to future generations, and it is also the inheritance of culture by future generations.
Walking through many ancient towns in the north and south, this time the Pearl River Delta self-driving tour naturally has to go to the ancient town of Shawan. It is also very characteristic, rich in history and humanities, and insufficient commercial atmosphere. It is worth hanging out, and the snacks have a special flavor.
Shawan Ancient Town, founded in the Song Dynasty, has formed and retained a unique Lingnan culture in the course of more than 800 years of development. Shawan Ancient Town has won the famous Chinese historical and cultural town, the township of Chinese folk art (piao color, the township of Guangdong music), the township of China's dragon and lion, the township of China's fish lamp art, the famous town of Chinese cultural tourism, the famous town of Guangdong, the most beautiful rural demonstration point in Guangdong (humanities and history), Guangdong tourism characteristic town, national AAAA-level tourist scenic spot and other honorary titles, is the only national historical and cultural town in Guangzhou. The ancient village pattern of "Shijie Shixiang" in Shawan Ancient Town is well preserved, and a large number of ancient buildings in the Ming, Qing and Republic of China periods have been preserved.
It is very lively during the Spring Festival, the local fare is 20% off, and it is 2 yuan cheaper to buy tickets on Trip.com. Show the QR code to change tickets on the spot and take the tickets to various attractions. I like Shawan Ancient Town very much 💕
