What's interesting in Nanning? Is Yangmei Ancient Town interesting?

Yangmei Ancient Town is recommended as a must-see attraction when traveling in Nanning, Guangxi. It has a history of thousands of years and well-preserved ancient buildings. In the second year of my work, I took the opportunity of business trip to visit the ancient town, which gave me the greatest feeling: surrounded by green mountains, flowing water, simple people and rich ancient buildings. Let's learn more about Yangmei Ancient Town with me.

Introduction to scenic spots

Yangmei Ancient Town is located in the southwest of Nanning, only 36 kilometers away from downtown Nanning, and roads, waterways and railways all pass through here. Yangmei Ancient Town was founded in the Song Dynasty and flourished in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. It has a history of thousands of years. From the establishment of the town to the Republic of China, it has been a commodity distribution center with a range of nearly 1 kilometers. It was prosperous for a while and was known as "Little Nanning".

Yangmei is the most completely preserved place of ancient buildings in the Ming and Qing Dynasties in Nanning. The preserved cultural heritage is spread all over the town, and there are more than 2 places, most of which are distributed in the streets and lanes of the ancient town. Some of the distinctive Ming and Qing dwellings are still intact, so it is named "Yangmei Ancient Town" today. There are more than 7 buildings in Ming and Qing Dynasties. The relatively complete scenic spots are: a street in the Qing Dynasty, residential houses in the Ming Dynasty, Kuixing Building, Huangshi Manor, Gubu Wharf, etc. Yangmei River Beach and the surrounding Zuojiang River are also picturesque. Its green slopes are nostalgic for the past, swords are inserted into clear springs, beaches are welcoming each other, Leifeng is green, and pavilions are particularly famous for eight scenic spots, such as river flow, golden sands moonlight night, Longtan sunset shadow and pavilion looking at clouds.

3. Key recommended attractions

(1) Longtan Sunset Shadow

"Longtan Sunset Shadow" There is a big Rong tree beside the bend of the river, which is divided into two forks and extends forward in parallel. There is a stone pillar under it, just like two dragons flying. The big dragon emperor and the small dragon princess are called Longtan. Standing on the edge of Longtan, you can see the beautiful scenery of Yangmei Bay. Whenever the sun sets, the water is sparkling, and the green water reflects the green bamboo, which makes people linger.

(2) Moonlit Night in Jin Tan

"Moonlit Night in Jin Tan", opposite Yangmei Ancient Town, is a large-scale beach with a length of about 2 meters and a width of about 2 meters. The upper half of the beach is semi-sandy and semi-rocky, brown or light yellow, and it is light gold under the moonlight. However, the lower half of the beach is very white sand, and there was a poem: the sand boat is beautiful on a moonlit night, the fishing lights are everywhere, the heart of the river is bright and the moon is bright, and the water is full of stars. "Bamboo dancing by the beach and egrets dancing by the water" shows the beauty of Jin Tan's night scene.

(3) Yangmei stone

Yangmei stone is admired by Xu Xiake, a traveler in the Ming Dynasty: spire stone, golden frog stone, elephant trunk stone, penguin stone, stone horse stone, sea lion looking back stone, dolphin kissing stone, etc. Each stone has a whimsy and a touching story, which contains profound cultural connotation; In addition, there are still many ancient tables, chairs, dogs, piers and porcelain in the ancient town, which are carved with various patterns, rough or fine, unique in shape and exquisite in craftsmanship, all of which are rare historical treasures.

food/specialty recommendation

The famous food in Yangmei is native chicken and Zuojiang fish, which tastes good, fresh and vigorous, but has no muddy smell of ordinary freshwater fish.

The specialties that promote beauty are: plum vegetables, lobster sauce, sand cakes, sauerkraut, etc. Yangmei sauerkraut is generally sold in various farmers' markets in Nanning.

lodging guide

There are only two lodging places in Yangmei. One is Linjiang Hotel on Linjiang Street, which has a shower and the sanitation is passable. The other is Wensheng Hotel, which is not far from the village. The conditions may be better and the price may be more expensive. The two places can provide twenty or thirty beds, but not many people usually come to live.

Photo Raiders

The scenery of Zuojiang River is still full of photos. You will take some good photos when you travel by boat. If you shoot buildings in Ming and Qing Dynasties, it may be more interesting to use black-and-white film.
