After the sun sets, the whole village is black hole, only a few inns are dim lights, you must lighting yourself to return to the accommodation, otherwise you dare not walk those stairs and bridges without guardrails. Under the sun, take a closer look and find that there are many spider webs in the dilapidated houses, over the roads, and on the edges of the trails. A quiet and leisurely place.

Baofeng Ancient Town is in the south of Yunlong County. The road is being built when you leave the city. It is all sandy roads. Fortunately, it is only a few kilometers. There are not many cars on the road, and it can be reached in about half an hour. There is an observation deck on the road, and the films taken are very spectacular. The archway at the entrance of the town is newly built and you can park here. Baofeng Ancient Town is one of the birthplaces of the ancient Yunlong ancestors. The ancient name is Hummer, Hummer Well, and later renamed Jinquan Well. It is the southernmost well of Yunlong Eight Wells. Crossing this archway, crossing the bridge is the ancient town. The ancient town was once prosperous due to the salt industry, but it has now fallen. The monuments in the town are not well protected. Most of the attractions on the schematic map have disappeared, and only a few places can be viewed. The town should want to engage in tourism. The streets are obviously renovated and clean. The most famous attraction in the town is Dong Ze's former residence. Dong Ze, the founder of Yunnan University, has been engaged in education for a lifetime, deeply loved by the people of Yunnan, and has a high life. The former residence has five courtyards, and now only the first and second entrances are open for visiting. There are few tourists, and local primary school students are free to play in it. Seeing the sign of this "Jinquanjing", the mountain went around a large circle, asked a lot of people, actually half of the people said that they have not heard, this salt industry is really down, did not find, so easy to have a big brother to know the road, in fact, go forward tens of meters, just the door is locked, not allowed to enter, Little regret~ Going up the river, there is a small iron bridge at the head of the village, which is the first steel bridge in the history of Yunnan Province's highway. The original site was originally located between Dalishu and Gongguo Bridge (Changyi Bridge). During the Anti-Japanese War, it was bombed by the Japanese many times and survived. After liberation, it was relocated because of the construction of a hydropower station. In Baofeng Elementary School at the entrance of the village, there are also Tibetan Book Pavilion and Qinzheng Palace, which can be seen. There are also Baiyi Pavilion, Fulong Temple, Yuhuang Pavilion, Xuanzhenguan and other attractions. The distance is far, and the sky is late, so I didn't go to find it. I drove back to Yunlong County. On the road back to Yunlong County, there is also a Gongguo Bridge, which is beautiful under the sunset. During the anti-Japanese period, Japanese ghosts bombed the bridge many times, and the military and the civilian concentric maintenance ensured the smoothness of the Myanmar Highway. The original site was in Gongguo Village. After liberation, the hydropower station was moved here due to the repair.
