Wucheng town Travel Guide: Is wucheng town interesting?

wucheng town is a famous ancient town with a history of 2 years. It has been compared with Wuhan in history. Now with the development and continuation of history, it has begun to decline. However, many ancient buildings and customs here are still preserved today. Let's introduce it in detail below.

Jiujiang has an ancient town, which consists of four small islands in Poyang Lake. It has a cultural history of more than 2 years. It is a small town with an ancient flavor, and few people know it. Very quiet.

wucheng town is located in the northeast of Yongxiu County, Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province, which is close to Nanchang City, about 9 kilometers away. In fact, wucheng town used to be in Haifa County on the north bank of Hexiu River. However, because a flood destroyed the town, the town was rebuilt in a slightly better place on He Xiushan.

Therefore, there is also a saying in the local area that "sinking into the sea and losing the county will make wucheng town". Its location is also a bit special, at the junction of Cao Zhou, so there are also rare wetlands and grasslands, about 6, mu, with a wide field of vision, numerous lakes and beaches in China, and abundant fish and shrimp resources. It is one of the six major wetlands in China.

Most of the tourists here are photographers, and most of them choose to come here in winter. Due to the good wetland environment in Poyang Lake, a large number of migratory birds come here to spend the winter and live there, because it is called "migratory bird paradise" in winter and is a world-famous wintering habitat for migratory birds and cranes.

Nowadays, people seldom catch birds in Poyang Lake, which makes it well protected. Every year, migratory birds who come here for the winter can queue up in a long line, which is very spectacular, so it is also called "the second Great Wall of China" and "the eighth wonder of the world".

wucheng town, located in the west branch of Poyang Lake, has been the most developed place in commerce and trade since ancient times with its unique transportation advantages. Song Dynasty mainly exported paper, salt, hemp and other commodities, which was a very important transshipment hub. During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, its economic development reached the highest level, even surpassing Nanchang, the provincial capital of "Wu Cheng, which can't be unloaded", including Wu Cheng.

there are many time-honored brands left by wucheng town. In the Qing Dynasty, there were about dozens of firms in wucheng town, and some folk songs were circulated, all of which sang about the commercial development here, such as "tea merchants, wood cigarette merchants" and "Jiaqing Daoguang, everyone drinks honey", all of which refer to the types of goods and the level of wealth here.

therefore, two yamen have been set up here, namely, the sub-yamen and the participating yamen. There are six military attache "Qian Zong" stationed here all the year round. Unfortunately, wucheng town is no longer as prosperous as it used to be, only those ancient buildings are silently telling history.

The most ornamental building in wucheng town is the Guild Hall, which witnessed the whole process of the commercial rise of wucheng town. There are a large number of guilds here, about 5, with different architectural styles, exquisite and unique, which is the most beautiful scenery in wucheng town. Unfortunately, many buildings have been destroyed now, and the best preserved one is Ji 'an Guild Hall, which is the only Ming and Qing style building in this town.

Now, when tourists come here, they can also see the shops on both sides of the old street. There are also many stone tablets next to the shop, as if to show people the stories of the past dynasties here. There are special snacks, especially wild fish heads, which are extremely delicious. It is said that wucheng town's fish heads are loose but not scattered, and the types of snacks also add different highlights here. Therefore, there has been a saying among the people that "eat in Wucheng and wear in Nanchang".
