Heyang ancient houses, after thousands of years of baptism, still retain the original appearance of ancient houses in the Yuan Dynasty, each ancient building is telling the story of the past, showing the vicissitudes of the millennium.
The ancient houses in Heyang are a very good attraction, mainly the temple, and the wood carvings are exquisite. There are not many tourists and the experience is quite good. The horse head wall at the exit looks particularly beautiful against the river. Very recommended.
There are not many tourists in this attraction on National Day. We took the bus from the Xiandu Scenic Area Visitor Center to Heyang Ancient Houses at 13:00. It seems that buying tickets one day in advance can be cheaper. I took three hours inside. In fact, it has not been finished. Because there are some handmade activities in the hall during the National Day, I have played for a long time. There are some shops on the ancient street that can experience old-fashioned shaves for free. Take the bus to Jinyun West Station at 4:30. There is also a car to Xiandu at 4:30.
The ancient buildings are still very interesting, parking is free. It is very convenient to scan the code into various small attractions.
Very good ancient houses, simple and quiet, not many people, it is worth a visit.
