Lijiang, Yunnan, is a very charming tourist city and a place that many tourists dream of. There are snow-capped Yulong Snow Mountains, Laojun Mountain with beautiful mountains and rivers, the antique ancient city of Lijiang, and the clear blue Lugu Lake... On the north side of the ancient city of Lijiang lies a town called the "Hometown of Qingquan". -Shuhe Ancient Town. As an important part of the ancient city of Lijiang, Shuhe Ancient Town is also one of the gathering places of the Naxi people. The Naxi customs here are very strong.

In Naxi, Shuhe Ancient Town is called "Shaowu", which means "village under the peak". As its name suggests, Shuhe Ancient Town is located at the foot of the Jubao Mountain. It is a real village under the peak. In the Tang Dynasty, the ancient tea-horse road from southern Yunnan to Lhasa, Xizang passed through here. Shuhe Ancient Town is a must-pass station on the ancient road, where merchants, chariots and horses coming and going will stop and rest. It witnessed the prosperous Tang Dynasty and the rise and fall of the ancient tea-horse road. For thousands of years, Shuhe Ancient Town has always stood quietly at the foot of Jubao Mountain, like a secret realm from a lifetime ago. To this day, the ancient town of Shuhe, which has a history of thousands of years, still retains its simple and natural style.

Most of the buildings in the ancient town are traditional wooden or masonry structures, and it is difficult to see cement houses. There are no high-rise buildings that block the sky, only elegant courtyards and lofts. It is also difficult to find electric vehicles on the streets. Colorful flowers are planted beside the road paved with bluestone, which is beautiful and beautiful. Various shops are filled with a dazzling array of goods, including traditional handicrafts, food specialties, and clothing accessories. In addition, painting clubs, milk tea shops, cafes and other emerging Internet celebrity check-in places are also available.

Sifang Street is the most central and oldest commercial street in the ancient town. It is also the place where merchants who once traveled on the ancient tea-horse road exchanged tea and horses. The square open spaces and streets leading to all directions are typical features of Sifang Street. Around the small square are lined with shops of all sizes. In ancient times, merchants and hawkers would come here to trade goods. When night falls, people after dinner will take their families to Sifang Street to visit the night market. At this time, Sifang Street was filled with candlelight lights, and pedestrians were busy. This is why the "Night Market Fireflies", one of the eight scenic spots in Shuhe River. Although today's Sifang Street is not as prosperous and lively as before, it still has a strong atmosphere of fireworks.

Walking down a street, you will soon arrive at the location of "Yanliuping Bridge". On the gurgling Qinglong River, there is an ancient bridge built in the Ming Dynasty, Qinglong Bridge. Unlike the majestic modern bridges, Qinglong Bridge looks simple and solemn. On the riverside, willows and willows are blooming and green.

Shuhe Ancient Town is a beautiful town with a sense of history. Scenes such as Jiuding Longtan, Longquan Temple, and Xishan Red Leaf are unforgettable. Wandering in the ancient town, slowly savoring the quiet years.

It's delicious, has good service, and has a good environment. I came for the tempting small pot of rice. I really didn't disappoint. After eating, I found that the dishes and flavors of this restaurant are indeed very worthy of recommendation! Great, how delicious it is! There is also Pu 'er tea braised pork that is so delicious that it is not too sweet or greasy. Sizzling tofu is also super delicious and cost-effective. Next time I have the opportunity to come to the ancient town, I will still eat this one. The store is in Shuhe Ancient Town, Lijiang! The environment is particularly good!

Seeing this, I left a message telling Xiaobian, do you want to go here and have a look?
