What to see when visiting Taiqiu

Laojuntang Laojuntang is a Taoist holy land. Lao Tang added a rich and colorful touch to Taiwei culture. The Taiwei Laojuntang Cultural Temple Fair, which originated from the birthday of Taishang Laojun, has gradually become a famous cultural event.

Before 1959, Laojuntang Temple Fair was praised by pilgrims and tourists for its Taoist incense and natural landscape, and it flourished for a while. Later, in the process of "removing the fourth elder", most temples were demolished, ancient cypresses were cut down, and the venue and scale of temple fairs were greatly restricted. Over time, young people know little about the origins and historical legends of temple fairs, and only a few elderly people are familiar with temple fair affairs. In recent years, the Laojuntang Temple Management Committee has raised funds to rebuild some temples, and Laojuntang has begun to glow with new vitality.

The Taiqiu Town Folk Museum is not well-known enough, but in a museum, it still looks like an old man who has gradually aged over the years. Every piece of production and living utensils, every photographic work that gradually fades from memory, are all marked by time. In the ancient Huangqiao Village, time is frozen, and the temple fair also reflects the spare time life of people here and records the historical trajectory of Huangqiao's development.

The Creative Culture Park and the 798 Art Original Base not only provide a creative platform and place for the majority of culture and art enthusiasts, but also promote the tourism development of the village.

As the first village-level folk museum around Yongcheng, Huangqiao Folk Museum is small in scale, but its production of daily utensils is quite ingenious.
