Introduction:

Baisha Ancient Town is a famous historical and cultural town in China and the most populous town in Chongqing. During the Anti-Japanese War, Baisha, Chongqing Shapingba, Beibei Xiaba, and Chengdu Huaxiba were collectively known as Sichuan The "Four Cultural Dams", as the rear area of ??Chongqing, is also one of the three major cultural areas of Chongqing.

The ancient town is characterized by the Anti-Japanese War relics and the scenery of stilted buildings. There are more than 20 Anti-Japanese War cultural sites, accounting for 15% of the Anti-Japanese War cultural sites in Chongqing, such as Heniantang, Xia Gongguan, Baiwu Academy of Literature, Chaotianzui Pier etc. There are not only stilted buildings here, but also a temple with constant music and music. The streets have a strong flavor of the Anti-Japanese War.

On the one hand, the folk houses in the ancient town embody the compatibility of the east, west, and west immigrants’ culture and the integration of Western culture. On the other hand, they are influenced by the folk customs of the Bayu area. At the same time, they absorb the characteristics of northern architecture and micro-style architecture, and are inclusive. There are many traditional houses from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, as well as some temples and Western-style buildings. It has a sense of history and is especially suitable for those who like history and old buildings to visit in depth.

Jukui Middle School, riverside stilted buildings, pier, Wangye Temple, Banban Street, etc. are all very interesting places. There are not many tourists here. The historical district is unique in style, large in scale and well-preserved. It is a veritable residential complex in the Bayu Mountains.

The unique architecture and its resemblance to the old Chaotianmen Pier in Chongqing have attracted many film and television crews to settle here. Many film and television works were shot here, and Baisha Ancient Town has become an important film and television base in Chongqing. Blackstone Mountain is the location of Jukui Middle School and a campus scenic spot in Chongqing. It is named after its huge black stone. It has unique natural scenery and is home to various rare trees and birds, such as the 400- to 500-year-old Podocarpus pine, the 1.8-meter-diameter Camphor trees and thousands of egrets.

There are two old streets in Baisha Town, one is in the ancient town along the river, and the other is hidden in the city. The whole Baisha Town is not big and the roads are easy to walk. You don’t need to take a car at all. You can just ask anyone to find out the way. You can start from Chaotianzui and slowly visit the ancient town along the river. The ancient town has not yet been fully developed and protected, the tourist facilities are not very complete, many places are dilapidated, and there is a sense of apocalypse everywhere. This is undoubtedly a place not to be missed by photography enthusiasts. There are usually very few tourists, but after seeing the bustling and noisy ancient town, it is a rare experience to come to this Baisha, which is full of life. There is a sense of vicissitudes of apocalypse everywhere, which is not to be missed for ancient town photography enthusiasts like me.
