Must-Visit Attractions & Unique Experiences 1. **Architectural Wonders**: Touch the Millennia-Old Yangtze Civilization • **Spiral Hall**: Ming Dynasty wooden marvel with a spiral caisson ceiling, built entirely without nails—climb to view the rushing Yangtze. • **Zhang Family Ancestral Hall**: Nanmu woodcarvings of "Cranes Amid Clouds," with feather details so fine they’re hailed as Sichuan’s carving masterpiece. • **Kuixing Pavilion**: Three-story riverside tower; at dusk, golden light glints off its glazed tiles, harmonizing with cargo ships on the river. 2. **Cultural Depths**: Wartime History & Masters’ Legacy • **Lizhuang Anti-Japanese War Museum**: Immersive exhibits on Tongji University’s relocation; replica manuscripts of Liang Sicheng’s *History of Chinese Architecture* on display. • **Liang-Lin Residence**: Workspace of Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin, with ink-stained desks and courtyard wisteria cascades. 3. **Modern Twists**: Light, Nature, and Adventure • **Moonfield Scenic Area**: - *Day*: Cycle (¥20/hr) through spring rapeseed fields or autumn reeds. - *Night*: Fog systems create fairy-tale scenes; 8-meter-tailed phoenix models soar over lakes, while boat rides pass sudden Sichuan opera face-changing acts. • **Hands-On Heritage**: Try traditional rapeseed pressing or weave grass bracelets (¥30) in Xizi Alley. --- ### II. Lizhuang’s Flavors: The Yangtze’s Culinary Gifts 🔥 **Local Must-Eats** • **Lizhuang Sliced Pork**: He San’s shop serves paper-thin pork leg slices with garlic-chili dip (¥40/person). • **Lizhuang Rice Cakes**: Steamed by Cao Laoyou, in original or osmanthus flavors (¥5/piece)—perfect souvenirs. • **Yangtze Delicacies**: Spicy yellow catfish tofu soup (Moonfield docks) or crispy duck (Shunhe Street), ¥30/person. ⚠️ **Tips**: Avoid "wild mushroom soup" (often farmed); buy fresh *huangba* cakes on market days (lunar 2nd, 5th, 8th). --- ### III.

Local Wisdom 1. **Photo Spots**: - Kuixing Pavilion at blue hour (20min post-sunset) for long-exposure river lights; Hanfu photos on Moonfield boardwalks. 2. **Avoid Scams**: - Opt for round-trip Sanjiang cruises (¥68); skip pricey guides (¥368/hr)—tag along with tour groups. 3. **Respect Culture**: - Don’t touch Spiral Hall’s painted wood; maintain silence in museums. When phoenix wings brush Kuixing’s tiles, when pork aromas drift from Xizi Alley’s stoves, when boat oars part Moonfield’s light reflections—Lizhuang’s days and nights blend the Yangtze’s timeless flow with the sizzle of human warmth. 🏮

[Yibin Travel Guide] The spiciness and tenderness of the First City of the Yangtze River, even your wallet can smile and go home! 🔥 Must-see attractions – Yibin's "three-piece set" 1. Shunan Bamboo Sea – "Natural oxygen bar, negative ions guaranteed" - Tickets: CNY 100 (discounts available for online booking) - How to play: Stroll through the bamboo forest as a swordsman, take the cable car and pretend you know Kung Fu, and remember to shout to the mountain, "My country is so green!" - Money-saving tip: Bring your own food, the bamboo in the scenic area cannot be cut and eaten on the spot (don't ask me how I know). 2. Lizhuang Ancient Town – "War of Resistance Culture + Sliced Pork Cutting Show" - Free to visit the ancient town, but it is recommended to spend CNY 10 to watch the master slice the pork – so thin that it can be used as a mobile phone screen protector! - Must do: Salute in front of the War of Resistance Museum, go to the old teahouse to eat melon seeds and listen to Sichuan opera, "face changing is faster than the boss turning his face." 3. Wuliangye Scenic Area – "You can get drunk just by smelling the air" - Free visit to the winery, the whole process is an attack of the aroma of wine, it is recommended to take a taxi (don't challenge your drunk driving willpower). - Easter egg: "Wuliangye Ice Cream" is sold at the entrance, don't grin at the traffic police after eating it. 🍜 Foodie Radar – The taste in Yibin people's DNA 1. Yibin Burning Noodles – "It's not the noodles that are burning, it's your mouth!" - Recommended: "Lu Erqian Burning Noodles" in the alley, CNY 8 a bowl, chili peppers can be selected as "slightly spicy", "Sichuan slightly spicy", "foreigners don't touch". 2. Lizhuang Sliced Pork – "So thin that you can see the boss's conscience" - Just find a shop in the ancient town and shout when ordering: "Master, give me a knife skill performance!" (with applause from the surrounding tourists) 3. Nanxi Dried Tofu – "Chewy and suitable as a hangover snack" - CNY 5 a pack in the supermarket, it is recommended to buy spicy flavor, when you are crying from the spiciness, you can say "the river wind is too dazzling". 💰 Accommodation Guide for Broke Travelers - Backpackers' first choice: Youth hostel near Yibin Railway Station, CNY 50/night, you can also listen to backpackers from all over the world bragging. - Literary youth Lizhuang Ancient Town Inn, around CNY 100, opening the window in the morning is "small bridge and flowing water, no people" (because the tourists have not yet gotten up). 🚗 Free fun around - Xiangjiaba Hydropower Station: Free to see the "Yangtze River Transformers", remember to bring sunglasses and reflectors to pretend to be the protagonist of a science fiction movie. - Bo People Hanging Coffins: Tickets are CNY 30, studying "how the ancients hung the coffins" is more brain-burning than escape rooms. 📌 Tips to avoid pitfalls 1. Yibin dialect "Bash"= delicious/comfortable, but the driver saying "arriving soon" may mean "half an hour more". 2. Prepare tissues before eating burning noodles, for wiping your mouth or tears. 3. The mosquitoes in the bamboo sea are all "cultivated", it is recommended to apply mosquito repellent by the pound. Finally, in Yibin, you can eat with the confidence of CNY 500 and play with the arrogance of CNY 1,000 for CNY 100 – after all, the most expensive thing here may be the old wine you want to pack when you leave! (But don't really pack it, the excess baggage fee is more expensive than the wine 😉) Let's go, the First City of the Yangtze River is waiting for you to get "drunk"!

As summer's intensity gradually fades, autumn arrives quietly with its gentle embrace. In Yibin, Sichuan, there's a place called Lizhang where autumn breezes gently ripple the river's surface, and the setting sun's glow bathes the water, creating a breathtaking scene. If you're looking to escape the city noise on weekends and find a moment of tranquility, Lizhang Ancient Town is absolutely the perfect choice. This place, honored as the "First Ancient Town along the 10,000-mile Yangtze River," was also one of the filming locations for CCTV's Mid-Autumn Festival Gala. Built along the river with waterways as streets and connected by bridges, it perfectly preserves the architectural style of the Ming and Qing dynasties. Walking on the bluestone paths, surrounded by gray bricks, green waters, and old alleys, the town exudes the charm of a Jiangnan water town. When I shared photos on social media, everyone asked if I was in Jiangnan, and I would proudly reply: "This is Lizhang in southern Sichuan's Yibin!" My trip to Lizhang was incredibly lucky! As night fell, a brilliant sunset came to "meet" me, and I captured that dreamlike moment with my iPhone's Live Photo feature. 📍 Transportation Guide: Lizhang Ancient Town is located in Cuiping District, Yibin City, Sichuan Province.

#discoverchina If I had to recommend just one must-visit spot in Yibin, it would be Lizhuang. It’s a small town, and you only need about half a day to explore it at a relaxed pace. Although much of Lizhuang has been newly built or renovated in the past couple of years, the charm of a Jiangnan water town still lingers beautifully. 📷✨ It’s great for photo ops but even better for slow walks and quiet moments. ☀️ With the heat these days, I’d suggest visiting in the cool breeze of the late afternoon. As the sun sets, the whole town takes on a warm, nostalgic glow. 🌇 Strolling from the main entrance to Tongji Square makes for a perfect little loop. ⛲ Water Street is quite commercialized—if that’s not your vibe, you can skip it. Tired and thirsty? Go grab some “Chuanmei” shaved ice—super refreshing! 🍧 And a little shoutout to their fried potatoes—my personal fave 😋 🍽️ If you're staying for dinner: Want a quiet, romantic setting? Try Huatiannyuexia—perfect for date night 💐 Not picky about ambience? Just head to the old street—the local spots all taste about the same, and that’s not a bad thing at all. More than just a place to visit, Lizhuang feels like a town you could actually live in. Where even life’s tiniest details float gently on a breeze of peace and sunshine 🕊️☁️ #LizhuangOldTown #SlowLivingVibes #YibinTravel #WanderThroughTime

The alley still retains its ancient appearance.
