The charm of the ancient town is unique because of the New Year paintings
Yangliuqing of Shanggu, Yangzhou
On a cold night, a guest arrives and tea is served as wine; the bamboo stove boils soup with the fire just turning red. The moon outside the window is the same as usual, but it's the New Year paintings that make the difference. The same ancient towns, but with different sentiments.
Yangliuqing, the New Year paintings from my childhood, have been around for years. Mentioning Yangliuqing, that enduring image of the New Year painting is deeply etched in my memory. The Yangliuqing Ancient Town Scenic Area, located in the center of Yangliuqing Town, Xiqing District, Tianjin, is known as the 'Jiangnan of the North' and 'Shanggu Yangzhou'. The scenic area boasts several attractions, including the 4A-rated Shi Family Courtyard, the 2A-rated An Family Courtyard, the 2A-rated Yangliuqing New Year Painting Gallery, and the Yangliuqing Folk Culture Museum.
Apart from the above-mentioned attractions which have an admission fee, the ancient town is open all year round for free. The ancient canal path flows past the village, and the town is small, peaceful, and tranquil. It is very suitable for walking with children and taking the elderly, inviting a few friends for a leisurely visit, especially for broadening children's horizons and understanding cultural history with more depth. The town is very convenient for eating, staying, and parking.

Yangliuqing Ancient Town
The location is easy to find, it's mostly straight ahead with few turns. The food street has a great atmosphere with beautiful scenery and buildings, and the light show is stunning and impressive, perfect for photography. Recommended activities include trying the cultural and creative products sold on the food street, such as exquisite hairpins and round fans, and the small lanterns with little rabbits on them are also very cute, as well as hoop-throwing games. The hot rock sugar pear drink I bought was very delicious.
There's no need to buy a ticket for the entrance, as you walk further into the food street, you enter a place similar to Nanluoguxiang, where there is no need to purchase a ticket.
The architectural style of the ancient town is filled with the strong atmosphere of the Shi family's grand courtyard, as if time has reversed, transporting you to the ancient mansions of the wealthy. The layered courtyards and the beautiful main hall make you feel as if you are in the midst of the grandeur of traditional Chinese architecture.
If you want to gain a deeper understanding of Yangliuqing's folk culture, don't miss the Folk Culture Museum! Here, you will experience the rich folk customs and personally experience the charm of traditional handicrafts. The display of cultural relics and traditional crafts will let you appreciate the profoundness of Chinese traditional culture, as if you have traveled to the bustling splendor of ancient times.
