HeShun Library

HeShun Library is the cultural benchmark of the ancient town, with a style of architecture from the Republic of China era. Two ancient plum trees lean across, ethereal and beautiful. It is said that the library used to order books and newspapers through fellow townspeople living in Burma, transported by waterway from Shanghai to Yangon, and then transferred to HeShun. The arrival time was twice as fast as domestic postal services, so the library surprisingly became the most informed news and cultural center at the time. Inside the library, there are plaques from famous people like Hu Shi, and it is said to even house a set of the original 'Complete Library in Four Sections'. For a rural library, this is quite impressive.
