Qiantong Ancient Town Journey: Dreams Turn into Reality

Qiantong Ancient Town Journey: Dreams Turn into Reality Once upon a time, my heart was filled with countless aspirations and dreams. Before I went to college, I often fantasized about living in the south for a while, to experience that unique tranquility and poetic charm. Imagining myself strolling on the ancient town's bluestone paths, feeling the distinctive flavor of the water town. Now, as I find myself in the embrace of Qiantong Ancient Town, those dreams seem to have come true one by one. Every corner of the ancient town is permeated with a rich historical atmosphere, and each brick and tile tells a story of the years. I walk along the river, watching the water flow gently, as if I can hear the breathing of the ancient town. Here, I have felt the gentleness and tranquility of the southern water town. The residential houses in the ancient town are well-arranged, with white walls and black tiles, exuding an antique charm. I have tasted the local specialties and felt the warmth and simplicity of the southern people. Looking back, those quirky ideas have now become reality. I am grateful to Qiantong Ancient Town for making my dreams come true and for making me cherish the beautiful moments I have now.

Every family has a flowing stream, and every household has carved beams

was founded at the end of the Song Dynasty and reached its peak during the Ming and Qing dynasties, still preserving more than 1,300 various ancient residential buildings to this day. The local Tong family began to settle here during the Shaoding period of the Southern Song Dynasty. In the early Ming Dynasty, Tong Bolai invited Fang Xiaoru to lecture here twice, forming the cultural style of the ancient village with 'little bridges and flowing water in every courtyard, and ancient alleys and courtyards hiding art and literature.' The cultural atmosphere of this place is very unique, without deliberate ostentation or imitation, only the strong ancient charm and vivid rural scenery. Here, you can hear the rhythm of the beautiful Jiangnan silk and bamboo music. 'Every family has carved beams, and every household has flowing water,' this is the biggest feature that distinguishes Qiantong from other ancient towns! It is said that in ancient times, the natural conditions of Tong Town were harsh, and the harvest depended entirely on the weather. The ancestors of the Tong surname spared no effort and introduced water into the village according to the principles of the Bagua, creating the unique 'Bagua Water System' in the ancient architectural clusters of Jiangnan, creating a wonderful scenery that is not a water town but is better than a water town! Walking on the quiet bluestone paths of the ancient town, one is reminded of a distant Jiangnan dream. On both sides of the old street paved with flagstones and cobblestones, there are shops with long plank facades, and nearby there are groups of ancient buildings with exquisite craftsmanship that are still perfectly preserved to this day. Walking among them seems to take people's thoughts back to the distant past~

I have traveled through the four ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River. My excessive commercial infestation has made me feel uncomfortable about the ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River. However, when I walked into the former Tonggu Town, which was built in the Song Dynasty and is currently dominated by Ming and Qing architecture, such a modern Jiangnan County has unexpectedly preserved the most original natural and human elements, the ancient villages and localities here. The human lifestyle has a true ancient charm. Entering the gate of the ancient town, the first thing that enters the line of sight is a shallow ditch that comes along the wall of the house. This ditch is built into the "water gossip" according to the principle of gossip. The house is built along the water, and the stream flows through the front of the house. Everyone can wash tea and wash clothes. The buildings here are mainly in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, including ancestral halls, folk houses, ancient wells and old streets. The outer walls are all green slate, the courtyard houses are wooden structures, and the old streets and courtyards are covered with local pebbles. There are many big families, the door is engraved with family training, and the house is equipped with beautiful stone window. Traveler Xu Xiake used this as the opening of the famous travelogue. "The March of the Ugly (the May 5th of the Gregorian calendar), from the Ninghai out of the West Gate, the clouds scattered, Everyone has a happy state." Today, the bricks and tiles here are as calm as the millennium. # Meet Xu Xiake

The former Tonggu Town is relatively remote, the traffic is not convenient, the ancient town is very complete, there is not much commercial development, and there are not many tourists. In general, it is worthwhile. From Shanghai, take the train to Ninghai Railway Station. After exiting the station, there is bus K116 to the West Bus Station. From here, transfer to the urban and rural bus to get off the front child, which is the former Tonggu Town. Qiantong Ancient Town is a typical Zhedong style ancient town, which is totally different from the common Jiangnan water town architecture. The guiding signs in the scenic area are very clear. There are several large courtyards open to the public, but it is best to have a presentation by the instructor to understand the subtleties. The pavement of the village is mostly paved with cobblestones. There are two streams near the former Tonggu Town, which are rich in pebbles. The locals build houses and pave the way. Mingjingtang is an old house built in the Daoguang Period of the Qing Dynasty. The word "Mingjing" was established by the order of Emperor Guangxu of Zhejiang Xuezheng. The walls of the house in the village are mottled and have experienced countless wind and rain. This is also a courtyard building, and there are still many locals living there. The Mingjingtang yard was paved with cobblestones in the shape of a gossip, and the owner was very careful when building the house.
