Shuidongzhen Review

Shuidong Ancient Town is a market town with a history of more than 1,000 years, once flourished due to the golden waterway of the Shuiyang River. Today, old Huizhou houses and bluestone streets are still preserved, and black and white photos are more simple and elegant than colored ones.

Going away all the way, there is a little surprise in the ancient town without buying tickets. It is called simplicity here. People live their lives and can see the small grid shop of needles and threads such as barber shops, supply and marketing agencies, and buttons in my memory. The most famous eighteen steps and churches on the ancient street. It is a different shock to have such a magnificent church in such an ancient town. Different senses and cultures live in harmony in this small town.

The ancient town of Shuidong, a small secret territory in southern Anhui, is located 29 kilometers southeast of Xuanzhou District, Xuancheng City, with an area of more than 100 square kilometers. The old street of Shuidong is located on the south side of the planning area of Shuidong Town, forming in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, and the north to the Sanguan Palace and the Triangle Garden. The whole block is relatively intact, retaining the architectural style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, consisting of upper streets, main streets, cross streets, and lower streets, as well as pawnshop streets, net street, back street, Shenjia Lane and the main street or parallel or interlaced, forming a serial market. Every day, when the first ray of sunshine in the morning, this ancient town will wake up in the clamor of tourists. People follow the bluestone slate, stop at the doctor's, 18 to listen to the story; watch shadow play in the southern Anhui Folk Museum; Feel the charm of the integration of Chinese and Western culture in front of Shuidong Church... Now Shuidong Old Street is exuding a unique charm of the intersection of ancient culture and modern civilization.

Very fun Jiangnan ancient town, special products in addition to honey dates and various wooden combs made of jujube trees! The church is very special!

Very good, hahaha

An ancient town of small scale, but the place is very simple and comfortable. There is a delicious wine shop made by the elderly themselves.
