Another ancient town in Shanghai has become popular, and it's too crowded with people

For Shanghai, a bustling international metropolis, in addition to modern skyscrapers, busy traffic, and the city's night view, there are also many ancient towns and villages scattered and distributed here, full of historical vicissitudes and sense of age. Today, let's take you to Fengjing Ancient Town, located at No. 28, Lane 8588, Tingfeng Road, Fengjing Town, Jinshan District, Shanghai, to see what different scenery there is here. Fengjing Ancient Town is located in the southwest corner of Shanghai and is a typical Jiangnan water town. More than 2000 years ago, there were people living in Fengjing Ancient Town. The boundary river in the town was the boundary river between Wu and Yue during the Spring and Autumn Period. Because it spans the two realms of Wu and Yue, Fengjing Ancient Town is known as the 'famous town of Wu and Yue'. The ancient town has a crisscrossing river system, with as many as 52 bridges, among which the Zhihe Bridge built in the Yuan Dynasty has a history of nearly 700 years. The ancient town has two main streets, one is the street called South Street in the south section, Middle Street in the middle section, and North Street in the north section (although they are divided into three sections, they are connected as one street).
