Xianju, Taizhou, is a seriously underrated and off-the-beaten-path ancient town

Visiting the Fairy Residence and staying nearby, I stumbled upon a place called Positan Ancient Town. This place has rarely preserved ancient buildings from the 'Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing' dynasties and is also known as 'one of the most completely preserved ancient cultural relics in Zhejiang.' 【Positan Ancient Town】 📍Address: About 25 kilometers west of Xianju County, Taizhou 🚘Distance: About 10 minutes' drive from the Fairy Residence This place has a unique confluence of five streams, and the winding ancient streets are said by locals to be 'dragon'-shaped, also known as 'the first ancient street in Zhejiang.' Most importantly, it has hardly been commercialized, without the noisy hawking and the same old snacks, still maintaining its original appearance! Throughout the ancient town, you can see many people sketching. If you like painting, you can come here for a quiet sit. Main attractions: Chen Family Ancestral Hall, Hu Gong Temple, He Family Academy Compared to the bustling crowds of other ancient towns, this place is particularly quiet. Walking through the ancient town buildings, it seems easier to touch the memories of old times. Xianju bayberries are currently in season, and on the way to the ancient town, there are many villagers' orchards where you can try them.
