Tips for a two-day tour in Ningbo-Explore the ancient fishing port town, surprise Xiangshan Film and Television City, visit the Old Bund of Ningbo at night, and visit Tianyi Pavilion...
01 Preface
It's the season for summer vacations and cooling down. This time, we chose to set out from Hangzhou and headed east along the canal to the sea. We came to Xiangshan County, Ningbo. Xiangshan County, a coastal city that lives on the sea and has a fishing port as its center, has a cruise ship terminal with a huge throughput, and it deserves to be the center city of the fishing port. The original intention of choosing Xiangshan may be because its geographical location is remote and small. When you come here, you can deeply experience the local fishing village culture and fishermen's life. An ancient town of Shipu near the sea has a long history and culture. The streets and alleys and stone roads are filled with historical vicissitudes. Xiangshan Film and Television City, which is comparable to Hengdian Film and Television City, is not as grand as Hengdian Film and Television City, but it produces many excellent film and television works here. An old Bund in Ningbo, which was famous hundreds of years before the Shanghai Bund, was gradually forgotten and gradually recalled. A precious private library that does not want to be famous to the world, but its collection of books has long surpassed the seven major library libraries in China.
Day1 Xiangshan Shipu Fishing Port-Xiangshan Film and Television City-Ningbo Old Bund
Day2 Ningbo Tianyi Pavilion Museum-Ningbo Fangte Oriental God Painting
When it comes to Xiangshan, the first thing that comes to mind is Xiangshan Film and Television City. However, there is a small ancient town near the seaside in Xiangshan. You can not only eat seafood, take fishing boats, but also fish by the seaside.
However, this time I came to the ancient city of Shipu Fishing Port to find the old days in the fishing village.
I am very ashamed that when I first came to your place, I didn't search for historical information immediately. Unexpectedly, I saw a stone statue of a general standing on the ancient town tower. When I walked in, I realized that it was Qi Jiguang, a famous anti-Japanese general, and I suddenly realized it. It turns out that this ancient town also has a story.
"Lang did not cultivate the fields or weave them, but he lived his life in fishing boats." This is a true portrayal of the ancient town before.
Stroll into the streets of the ancient town, go up and down the steps, smell the faint smell of seafood, and in turn you can find the old traces left by history. Here are old stage, old teahouses, old money houses, old cigarette houses, and small museums that display fishing villages. A portrayal of the people's past life and fishing tools.
Because it is located by the sea, the ancient town is on a high mountain. Standing on the tower, you can see the dense number of fishing boats docked on the other side of the sea, which has a unique style.

As a veteran fan, I just had the opportunity to go to Xiangshan Film and Television City to experience the real-life atmosphere of film and television drama shooting.
The charming cities of the Republic of China and Xiangyang, as well as the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Cities, give people a shocking feeling, as if they had traveled through ancient times alone. We happened to catch up with a cast in the Republic of China City and staged a play of "Chen Zhen", which made us forget to leave. The 7th Dai Water Splashing Festival held at the Dali Palace also brought us a touch of coolness.

When you mention Shanghai, everyone must think of the Shanghai Bund immediately, but today the Bund is crowded with people. I don't know whether to look at people or the Bund. In fact, Ningbo, as a port city with a long history in my country, has a style street on the old Bund site that is no less than Shanghai's Bund.
Ningbo Old Bund is located in a port area in Jiangbei District on the north bank of the Sanjiang Estuary in Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province. It is the confluence of the three rivers of the Yongjiang River, Fenghua River and Yuyao River. It was opened in 1844 and was the earliest of the "Five Ports Trade" to open a port to the outside world, 20 years earlier than the Shanghai Bund. Due to its superior geographical location and trading advantages with other countries, it was inevitably covet by great powers and countries. Under semi-colonial control, it left behind a European-style architectural complex in the old Bund, including a Gothic-style Catholic church.
Today's Old Bund gathers specialty bars and restaurants, which is a place for Ningbo people to enjoy at night. Drinking beer and appreciating the river view in the streets of European-style buildings is also a must-visit place. Perhaps the scale here is not as grand as the Shanghai Bund, but it has a unique tone that belongs to Ningbo. It is slow, noisy but not noisy. Feel the different old Bund and appreciate the charm of Ningbo at night!
06Day2 Ningbo Tianyi Pavilion Museum
I first met Tianyi Pavilion, but I didn't know that Tianyi Pavilion was the place where Fan Qin personally collected books in the Ming Dynasty, which has high cultural and historical value. It is not an exaggeration to call it a treasure of new cultural heritage. With a history of more than 400 years since its construction, China's seven famous library pavilions were built in imitation of Tianyi Pavilion. Most of the books in "Siku Quanshu" come from Tianyi Pavilion, which shows that Tianyi Pavilion was very valued during the Qing Dynasty. At that time, it was protected by descendants of the Fan family and was not destroyed. It is the most well-preserved Bishu Pavilion Museum today.
Entering the Tianyi Pavilion Museum, you will see a stone statue of Fan Qin, the builder of the Ming Dynasty. The stone carving on the wall behind the stone statue is more profound. Every step you take is a scene, such as the stone carving of Xiezhi, Dongming Cottage, Sima Di, Mingzhou Stele Forest, Zunjing Pavilion, etc., are all good attractions.
As a library, Tianyi Pavilion pays more attention to the effects of fire prevention, moisture resistance and ventilation, so its construction combines the ancient theory of feng shui. There is a saying in the Book of Changes: When the sky produces water, 60% of the earth produces water. The library building was most afraid of fire, so this building was named Tianyi Pavilion. The Book Pavilion is built on a hard mountain top and has a wide surface. There is a large room upstairs, and six rooms are deep downstairs, which is exactly in line with the saying of "Heaven and Earth Six". There are corridors in front and back to communicate with each other, and there is a "Tianyi Pool" in front of the building. Water is diverted from Yuehu Lake into the pool and stored water for fire prevention.
The east and south gardens of Tianyi Pavilion are dotted with rockery, ponds, pavilions, etc., which have the flavor of Suzhou gardens and are extremely comfortable and comfortable. Perhaps for the people of this city, Tianyi Pavilion is no longer just a quiet courtyard. It has long existed in the world as a symbol, a totem, and a living code of conduct. It is this respect and awe for culture that has contributed to the development and prosperity of a city.

10 Postscript
In fact, the travel time with a group is relatively tight. The average drive between each attraction is one hour. It takes two days to visit these five attractions in Ningbo. It is very suitable for weekend travel in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, and is also suitable for couples and girlfriends. Family parent-child travel self-driving travel.
Everyone knows that there is a Zhoushan in Ningbo near the sea, but they don't know that there is also an Xiangshan mountain near the sea. There are not only the stories of famous anti-Japanese generals with a long history, but also the world-famous private academy Tianyi Pavilion, as well as the ancient fishing port and dock close to the seaside. Even many films and television dramas were filmed here. Therefore, I highly recommend everyone to come and play!
