The most distinctive old street in Sichuan is known as "Noah's Ark in China". What is this place?

Sichuan is a big province integrating fashion, history and culture, and there are also many tourist attractions in the province. Famous are Chengdu, the provincial capital, and places of interest in various cities in Sichuan. One of them is Liang Ting Street in Luocheng Ancient Town.

Luocheng Ancient Town is located in Qianwei County, Leshan City, Sichuan Province, where seven ethnic groups, namely Han, Hui, Yi, Manchu, Tibetan, Li and Miao, live, and it is a small ethnic gathering place. The fame of Luocheng ancient town has spread overseas. Prior to this, Australians had built a "China City" in Melbourne, which was praised by foreign media as "Noah's Ark in China".

The main attraction of Luocheng ancient town is the boat-shaped ancient street, mainly because Luocheng ancient town is located on an oval hill, and the main street is boat-shaped, so it is also called "a shuttle in the clouds" locally. The main street of this ancient town is called Liang Ting Street, commonly known as "Boat Street". Chuanxing Street is the center of Luocheng in the old days, and some cultural features of Ming and Qing Dynasties are still preserved on the street. On both sides of the street are long rows of old tile houses with wooden structures, and the eaves on one side of the street are very wide, so people can enjoy the cool under the eaves. Therefore, a special cool corridor "gazebo" has been formed. The pavilion consists of more than 100 old logs, which is a sunny and rainy market in Luocheng ancient town. There is no sunshine on sunny days and no wet feet on rainy days.

In this long corridor, there are many old shops, most of which are teahouses. Local people sit in Chuanjie drinking tea, chatting and playing cards to run their own small shops, which is quite in line with the comfortable life of Sichuanese. There are still some people in Liang Ting street who like to go to the opera, so there are also many theaters. The audience held a pipe, arranged a dragon gate array and made tea with a kettle, which restored the street scenery of Liang Ting Street in the past.

Antique ancient streets, celebrity gathering places, different market cultures and unique ancient town structure are all true portraiture of Liang Ting Street in Luocheng ancient town, and also represent the inheritance of Sichuan culture.
