    Meizhou. Songkou, a thousand-year-old town, is one of the first places where Hakka's ancestors moved from Yue to Guangdong. It is the first stop for Hakka's family to go out of Nanyang after the end of Ming Dynasty, and it is also one of the source of Sun Yat-sen's revolution in Xinhai. Therefore, it is deeply imprinted in Nanyang culture. Songkou Ancient Town is a historical commercial town, the neighboring Songkou Port was once the second largest port in Guangdong Inland River. Songkou Ancient Town was deeply engraved with the imprint of Nanyang culture. For example, the streets of Songkou belong to the style of Chinese and Western combination, and there were foreign buildings in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty. The commercial atmosphere here is not strong, and the entire ancient town is aboriginal. In mottled streets and buildings, the time is not old.

    If you want to trace some historical things, it is worth punching in. The ancient town has a lot of things worth remembering. Songjiang Hotel is worth a visit, and a few photos taken in front are worth reminiscing.

    There is no need to go there specially. The town looks very old and nothing stands out from other old urban areas nearby. There is only one wharf which marks the Hakka people's impression of making a living in the South China Ocean. After all, the existing things are much remodeled for a long time.

    Baidu map and Gaode map are not very accurate in Meizhou, a few lines to Songkou are not right, and finally from Meizhou City, take No. 41 to Meidongqiao Terminal. After getting off the bus, it is the gas station of the last picture. This car is normally half an hour, but it will be longer at 12 noon. Walking through the Meidong Bridge, from the bridge head down the steps to the block, has actually entered the ancient town area, but only the Songkou Hotel and the Port Authority have been re-maintained, and the streets and buildings in other areas still retain the mottled old meaning. It can be seen that the original place should be the bustling place of that era, but now there is only memory. It is suitable for those who like humanities and photography. There are some unique tastes and perspectives. There is not much visibility for simply sightseeing.
