Compared to Lijiang and Dali, I love Tengchong, an ancient town that has made it to the National Geographic list, even more
Tengchong, a place born for 'lying flat'
Quieter than Lijiang and Dali, it's so beautiful it doesn't seem earthly
This sun-facing treasure town
Makes people unforgettable once they've been here
Heshun Ancient Town, half mountain and water, half fireworks
Like a paradise, a scene at every step
Deep cultural heritage, unique ancient town architecture
All give unexpected surprises
Listen to my advice! Coming here in the off-season is really a win

The predecessor of Heshun Library was the "Xianxin Society" organized by the members of the Heshun Alliance at the end of Qing Dynasty and the "Reading Newspaper" established in 1924. After donations from overseas Chinese and township people, it was expanded into a library in 1928 and the new museum was completed in 1938. It is the oldest existing rural library in China. The library now covers an area of 6,000 square meters, and there are more than 100,000 books in the library, more than 10,000 ancient books and rare books. It has the inscriptions of Hu Shi, Xiong Qinglai, Li Shizeng and other cultures. It is the largest rural library in China.
The Heshun Library, located at the entrance of Heshun Ancient Town, was built in 1928 and has a collection of more than 100,000 books, of which more than 10,000 ancient books are divided into: ancient books, the Republic of China, and modern parts, which are the largest libraries in rural China.
After the change of dumplings in the late Qing Dynasty, the alliance member inch-Qing launched the organization of Xianxin Society in 1905. It was the first library in rural China to enter Heshun Ancient Town. The first attraction was the library. It was not as big as expected, but the building was very local. Time to flip through the newspapers in the library and feel the imprint of what era...
[View] beautiful [Fun] Super strong [Cost-effective] Super high
I think the price of 55 is a bit high. I only played for two days in a hurry this time. I will play for a while next time.
Not bad! Worth a visit
Very satisfied.
The quaint town, the morning market and night market are lively, there are not too many people, the town is on the hillside, walking hard, driving scary. The sewage was not done well, and many places were full of smell. The locals said that Bailian occupied the land, but did not manage it. It was worth 55 yuan to collect the ticket.
