Guanshan Ancient Town

The beauty of Guanshan lies in the elegance of gardens and forests. On the other side of the river from the ancient city, there are rows of Huizhou-style buildings lined with trees. It is said that in spring, white wall tiles and rapeseed flowers are more suitable.

Weishan Town

In the Tanhe River in the upper reaches of the Weishan River, there is a long and mysterious ancient Chinese civilization——Tanhe Civilization. It has gone far away, shocking world. Tanhe is known as the "Bronze Cultural Center of South China" because of the unearthed rare bronzes such as the Four-Yang Statue and the Human-Faced Tripod.

More than 300 bronzes from the Shang and Zhou dynasties have been unearthed around the Tanzheli Cultural Site, centered on Ningxiang Huangcai, and new bronzes are still being unearthed. Currently, Ningxiang County is relying on Tanhe National Archaeological Site Park to rebuild the ancient city of Tanhe to recreate the magnificent scenery of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

Mozhuang

Mozhuang. Liuyuan, located in Hongjiang Ancient Mall, is said to be the largest house among the ancient buildings in Hongjiang Ancient Mall. In Hongjiang, a dense residential complex with "seven lanes, eight lanes and nine streets", there are few buildings as majestic and square as Mozhuang, with a rare piece of flat land in front of the courtyard. No wonder it became the center of power in Hongjiang. Liu Xuyi, the warlord who once dominated the Hongjiang River, valued this land and built this high-walled compound. He borrowed the name of Mozi who advocated "universal love without attacking" and named it "Mozi".

Mozhuang is mainly based on Hui-style garden architecture. The "Mozhuang" building is a patchwork of old house materials collected by Hunan people from various places. This ancient building was originally built in Dongyang, Zhejiang. It was originally built by the late Qian for his first wife. Qian used to be an official businessman and owned real estate in Suzhou and Hangzhou.

From acquisition to reconstruction, only a few million yuan is needed. The bluestone slabs in front of the door were all moved from Zhejiang, and the ceramic tiles were removed from old houses in Changsha. The entire building is a courtyard with a patio and a large screen at the entrance. Bricks and tiles, carved beams and painted buildings, wide bluestone roads, three high arches, stone monkeys and horses all look self-contained and lifelike. Seeing the scene in front of me is like being in Jiangnan.

Yingzhu Mountain Scenic Area

With a history of more than 2,000 years, it is a national 3A tourist attraction and a provincial forest park. This route can be climbed or cycled, making it perfect for traveling together! The lush trees here form a natural oxygen bar. Take a gentle breath, and a large amount of pure oxygen flows smoothly into the lungs along the nasal cavity and trachea. A breath of fresh air melted away.
