    "The time given by Xianghuiqiao Station is only 20 minutes, not enough to visit the nearby Xianghuiqiao Bridge, and the Tuanshan Village has been left for two and a half hours. It is completely unnecessary. You can give Xianghuiqiao Station for 10 minutes, so you can go to see Xianghuiqiao."

    Highlights: The Jianshui Excursion Train departs from Lin'an in Yunnan Province. The train station and train carriages are decorated in a historical style from the Nationalist era. The beautiful scenery changes with the seasons. In spring, visitors can enjoy fields of yellow canola flowers, while in summer rice seedlings erupt into a sea of green. The rice is harvested in autumn, while winter is the best time to view the rice paddies. The train stops at Shuanglong Bridge and Xianghui Bridge, which afford magnificent views over the surrounding area.

    "Zhujia Garden is very unexpected and worth a visit. I originally planned to walk around for half an hour and leave. Who knows it is too beautiful, and I took pictures for more than two hours. The small yard is beautiful and cultural. It is very convenient for Trip.com to buy tickets and brush the QR code to enter."

    Highlights: The Zhu Family Garden is located on Hanlin Street in Jianshui County. It was a home and ancestral temple built by the Zhu Weiqing brothers in the waning years of the Qing Dynasty. Within the park, the ancestral hall, temple, living quarters and gardens are all magnificent and majestic. Visitors to the site can take the opportunity to learn about the architectural style of the southwestern residential gardens. The entirety of the Zhu Family Garden is built on a south-to-north axis and, for Jianshui, is a typical and classical combination of residential buildings and gardens. The buildings are, of course, laid out in a specific order. In the southeast corner of the Zhu Family Garden stands a Huaiyuan Hall with an exhibition on the Century-Long Rise and Fall of the Zhu Family.

    "An ancient village, repaired, look at it, there is a certain visitability, Jianshui living has nothing to do, you can go. If tourists from other places, it is a bit too much to take time to go specially for tourism."

    Highlights: Tuanshan folk house is located 13 kilometers west of Jianshui ancient city. It was the residence of the Yi people in history. It is called "Tusher" in Yi language, which means "the place where gold is buried and silver is buried". The village is built on a sloping land, backed by green hills, facing the fertile Xizhuang Bazi, Lujiang River and Gebishi Railway.
