Route guide:

There is no definite route order to visit the ancient town of Tang, and there are many entrances. It is recommended to stay in Xitang at night. Red lanterns are hung all over the sky, and the ancient town is noisy and fashionable. Get up early the next day and savor the whole Xitang from the first breakfast.

Accommodation is concentrated on both sides of the misty and rainy corridor, and there are antique waterfront inns such as old residence, Suiyuan and so on. On the bank of Yongning Bridge with the most beautiful scenery, there are many restaurants such as Laopinfang, Qiantang Family, Ming and Qing Dynasties.

You can walk along the misty rain corridor for breakfast, eat whatever you see, and taste stinky tofu, tofu flower, zongzi, tied meat, small wonton and other snacks all the way; At lunch, go to Laopinfang to taste the old duck wonton soup and taste the delicious first pot. Have dinner in Xiangtang, sit on his wooden table and stand in the open air on the shore, light candles and watch the cruise ship pass by. Very pleasant.

After dinner, take a cruise and experience the life in the water town. You can still soak in Xitang in the end. The ancient seaside bar, the red sofa in Hong Ting and the luxurious taste of Fujutang all make people linger.

Ancient dwellings on both sides of the Taiwan Strait

If the entertainment in the town is colorful and complete, it can't be compared with big cities, but the water town has its own elegance and charm.

In addition to regular cinemas, video halls and dance halls, there are Fu You Julou Cultural Club, Chenjia Old House Bar, Hong Ting Bar, Suiyuan Zhu Xiao Bar and Covered Bridge Dream Bar.

Go to Xitang by boat at night and watch the red lanterns on both sides of the river, which is crowded and a combination of fashion and classicism. In the river at night, you can also put lotus lanterns of various sizes, which is very interesting.

One of the recommended attractions of the smoke gallery: sending my son to Phoenix Bridge.

Laifeng Bridge is located on the east side of Xiaotong Street, opposite the water stage and next to the cruise center. The bridge was built in 1637 (the tenth year of Chongzhen in Ming Dynasty) and is a three-hole stone slab bridge. Legend has it that a bird flew over when the bridge was built. The bridge builder thought it was auspicious and named it "Songzi Laifeng Bridge". It was rebuilt in the forty-eighth year of Kangxi and the fifteenth year of Daoguang in Qing Dynasty.

Laifeng Bridge, rebuilt 1997, has a unique shape and structure, and is suitable for sightseeing. It is one of the new attractions. The width of this bridge is 10 meter, and the middle is separated by a flower wall, so pedestrians can go their own way. People usually call it Qingyu Bridge.

There is a shed with red eaves and tiles at the top of the bridge, which is simple and novel. There are guardrails on both sides of the bridge and long blocks paved with square bricks for tourists to rest in the river and enjoy the scenery.

How should I get to the bridge?

It's still a little fastidious to walk this bridge. The ancients paid attention to yin and yang, and Nanyang was in the north of yin. In ancient times, men were yang and women were yin. On the south side of the bridge are stairs and on the north side are slopes. Of course, men are promoted step by step, and women's three-inch golden lotus is a small step, which can keep a stable home. The old people said, "When the newlyweds take a walk, they will send their children to the south, and they will come to Phoenix in the north." If you have no children after marriage, you might as well take a walk.

Meryl, the heroine of the international movie star The Bridges of Madison County, is here.

The so-called porch shed is actually a street with a roof. Some of the verandahs in Xitang are by the river, some are in the middle, and some are equipped with back stools by the river for people to rest. The roof of the veranda is "falling into the water" and "falling into the water", and the roof of the veranda is also formed by street buildings. Although different, they can protect enterprises and pedestrians from the sun and rain.

Legend about the porch hut:

There is a businessman named Hu in Tawan Street, Xitang. Hu, the shopkeeper, is young and widowed, struggling to support a family and a shop. There is a tofu stand in front of Hu's shop. The stall owner, Wang Er, is strong and upright. When he saw Hu's difficulties, he helped her make some handicrafts. After a long time, Hu felt that he could not live without him, but it was hard to say.

So one day, taking the opportunity of repairing the shop, she asked the craftsmen to build a row of cloisters by the river to cover the street in front of the shop, so that Wang Er could not be exposed to the sun and wind, and she could set up a stall as usual in rainy days, and two people were under one roof. After the corridor shed was built, Hu's shop business flourished, and businesses in the town followed suit. A few years later, it became the unique architectural style of Xitang. Later, when people knew this meaning, they named the porch a shed, which means a shack built for their husbands.

Xitang Night Scene Recommended Attraction 3: Shipilong

Before the Ming Dynasty, there were four families in the ancient town: Tang, Wang, Zhao and Lu. After the Ming Dynasty, there were many big families, such as Ni, Jiang, Zhu, Lu Bu and Lu, so many deep houses were built. Up to now, there are 122 alleys with different lengths in the whole town, among which there are 5 alleys over 100 meters, and the most distinctive open-air alley is called Shipi Lane.

Pinong is an alley formed between two mansions of the descendants of the Wang family. The wall is paved with 2 16 boards with a thickness of only 3cm, and the floor is paved with 168 boards with a total length of 68 m. The widest point is 1. 1 m, and the narrowest point is 0.8 m, which is the corridor between Wangzunwendian and Zhongfu Temple.

According to research, under the stone road in the farm is a sewer without water in rainy days. As the skin of sewer, thin slate is called Pilong. There is a long and narrow sky above, so Shipi Lane is called the "first-line sky" of Xitang.
