Are there any ancient towns in Shanghai?
When it comes to tourist attractions in Shanghai, people think more of the Bund and Lujiazui, modern architecture and revolutionary sites, but ignore that Shanghai is actually a place where Jiangnan culture collides with western culture, so there are many ancient water towns like Zhouzhuang, Wuzhen, Xitang, Tongli, Luzhi and Nanxun ("the six ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River"). According to the list of famous historical and cultural towns in China published by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, there are not only authentic ancient towns in Shanghai, but also quite a few:10-compared with other municipalities directly under the central government or prefecture-level cities, this figure can rank among the top in the country.

China 10 famous historical and cultural towns include Fengjing Town, Zhujiajiao Town, Xinchang Town, Jiading Town, nanxiang town Town, Gao Qiao Town, Li Antang Town, Zhangyan Town, jinze town and Chuansha New Town. Among them, Zhujiajiao and Fengjing were developed earlier, and everyone must have heard of it or even been there. Others are not well-known, or hidden in cities, or have inconvenient transportation and few tourists. As for why Qibao Town, which is also famous, was not selected as a famous town, it can only be said that it is a mystery. Maybe it will appear on the new list. In addition, there are two famous Chinese historical and cultural villages in Shanghai-Xiatang Village and Innovation Village. Their external names are "Sijing Ancient Town" and "Zhao Jialou", which can also be regarded as "ancient towns" in a broad sense. Due to space reasons, I won't introduce it here.

There are also ancient towns in Shanghai, and there are many ancient towns, but many people come to Shanghai only to know that the Bund is famous for its noise and bright lights, and the so-called magic capital is basically defined in the Bund and Lujiazui on both sides of the Huangpu River.

But when it comes to the ancient towns in Shanghai, there is still a strong flavor of ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River and a certain historical and cultural background. Today, I will briefly list several interesting ancient towns in Shanghai.

I. Ancient Town of Feng Jing

Among all the ancient towns in Shanghai, Feng Jing is my personal favorite. First, the ancient town is well preserved, and the Jiangnan water town has a strong flavor. There are many old streets and waterways, as well as ancient bridges.

It's really one step at a time, which is very suitable for taking your time. Fengjing ancient town is also a large-scale and well-preserved water town in Shanghai.

The ancient town is far from the city center, so you can go there by car or bus.

Second, Zhujiajiao Ancient Town

Zhujiajiao ancient town is a famous ancient town in Shanghai, and it is also the best preserved ancient town in Jiangnan water town in Shanghai. Now the subway is around the ancient town, so it is very convenient to go to the ancient town. It is also a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, but its commercial atmosphere will be much stronger than that of the ancient town of Feng Jing.

Third, the ancient town of Li Antang.

I have been to the ancient town of Li Antang. Compared with Zhujiajiao and Feng Jing, the ancient town of Li Antang is more quaint, but it also lacks the commercial flavor that many ancient towns should have. You can stroll through the old streets of Li Antang and feel the slow life in the water town. :

Fourth, Xinchang ancient town

Compared with other ancient towns in Shanghai, Xinchang ancient town is a little weak, and there is nothing special, but there will be many tourists visiting during the Peach Blossom Festival and some tourist seasons.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) Qibao Street

Go back to the old street in Shanghai, which is a lively place. There are many tourists and crowds every day. There are many snacks and small commodities to buy.

Six, Yu Garden

Many people who come to Shanghai will choose Yu Garden, which is close to the Bund and separated by the Ancient Elephant Park. Every day is crowded with people. However, the old streets here can feel some historical and cultural atmosphere of Shanghai.

What else can you add to your life?

There are also some ancient towns in the suburbs of Shanghai. Whether they are worth seeing depends mainly on whether they are interested. I like ancient towns. When I went to Shanghai, I went to Zhujiajiao, Fengjing, Anting, Nanxiang and other ancient towns. Personally, I think it's good. These ancient towns are not as famous as Wuzhen, Xitang and Zhouzhuang, and there are not so many tourists. Walking through the streets of these ancient towns is also interesting.

Fengjing ancient town: Located in Baoshan District. The third Fengjing Bridge is the core of the ancient town, and the most popular one is the wind and rain corridor hundreds of meters along the Zhaxi River in the ancient town. Keep a wuyue boundary marker in the ancient town. As the name implies, the ancient town of Feng Jing now belongs to Wudi. In ancient times, half of it crossed the border. Another feature of the ancient town is the preservation of the former site of the people's commune.

Zhujiajiao Ancient Town: Located in Qingpu District, Shanghai, near Dianshan Lake, the ancient town has a large water area, so there are many bridges. The ancient town also retains residential buildings and ancient buildings such as the former site of the post office in the Qing Dynasty, the Town God Temple, and monasteries.

Nanxiang Ancient Town: In Jiading District, Shanghai, it is very close to Nanxiang subway station. In the core area of the ancient town, there are five rare brick pagodas in China, and Guyi Garden, a famous garden in Shanghai, is also in Nanxiang. When you arrive in Nanxiang, you can taste authentic Nanxiang steamed buns. There are many local snacks in Shanghai Chenghuang Temple (Yuyuan Garden), including Nanxiang steamed bread (actually steamed buns); When we arrived in Nanxiang ancient town, the signboard was Nanxiang steamed buns. I asked the shopkeeper: Why are the same things steamed buns in the suburbs and steamed buns in the city? The master doesn't know why.

Jiading: Jiading is an ancient city, and ancient Shanghai is Jiading House. The Confucius Temple in Jiading is relatively complete and is now open as an ancient imperial examination museum. Huilongtan, next to Confucius Temple, was built in Ming Dynasty. When I went back to Longtan, I felt that Stephen Chow's "Tong Pak Hu Dian Qiu Xiang" was the place where the four great talents visited the temple fair. Autumn Xiapu Park, one of the four major gardens in Shanghai, and the quaint old street (around Fahua Pagoda) are also worth visiting.

Anting Ancient Town: Anting is on the edge of Shanghai, near Kunshan, Jiangsu. Shanghai Volkswagen is here. Although Anting is only a town, there are many high-rise buildings and it is very prosperous. Anting Old Street is a bustling city and a quiet place in the hustle and bustle. In Anting and Shanghai Automobile Museum, there are many cars of different ages on display, and those who are interested are worth visiting.

What you have to think about is

Wuzhen, Zhouzhuang, Xitang, Nanxun and Tongli

These places are really people! Also! More!

In fact, there are still some little-known things hidden around Shanghai.

A unique ancient town.

The most important thing is people! Less! King! Beautiful!

This small holiday makes us "cherish life and stay away from the crowd"

Different from other business districts, gaochun old street still maintains its original charm. Shops on both sides of the street rarely have tourist souvenirs from other ancient towns, all of which are local specialties of Gaochun, lacking impetuous commercial atmosphere.

Liangnong Ancient Town is a well-preserved cultural ancient town in Zhejiang. Compared with the commercial development of the four ancient towns in Jiangnan, Liangnong Ancient Town is more attractive in Jiangnan.

Entering the ancient town, walk eastward along Zhengmeng Street. Although it is a new street, I only feel that the ancient style is coming. This street imitates Ming and Qing architecture and intersects with the old street in the town. Most of the buildings along the street are two or three floors, with scattered eaves and gables, echoing the Second Library in East Zhejiang.

Address: Liangnong Town, Ningbo

In fact, there are many ancient towns around Shanghai besides Zhujiajiao. I will arrange a good place for you to spend two weekends on the next flight!

fengjing ancient town

If you love the beauty and gentleness of a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, come to Fengjing. While it is still unknown and there are few tourists, let's experience this rare quiet ancient town.

Maybe you have been to many small towns, but Fengjing has no strong commercial atmosphere and is just right.

It doesn't take half a day to visit the whole town, walk through the old streets with bluestones, set foot on the arch bridge on the river, see the willows and listen to the gurgling streams.

Here, there is no regular route arrangement, just browsing at will, and there will be surprises everywhere.

Anyway, the sky is blue and the water is light, and the time here is very leisurely.

Others: There are shuttle buses from the distribution center, gymnasium and hongkou football stadium to the scenic spot every day.

Xiang Qiao Kanazawa

Nowadays, urbanites have all kinds of strange "urban diseases", and digital products, shopping malls and supermarkets are full of our lives. It's time to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city, find a quiet place and return to the ancient life one day.

Kanazawa is naturally not as famous as Wuzhen and Zhouzhuang, but "the first bridge town in the south of the Yangtze River" has always been low-key.

There are not so many commercial attractions in the village. You just need to walk along the slate street, listen to the sound of water and look at the street view. No cell phone, no computer. Such a day is actually very fast.

Every bridge here has its own story, spanning decades and full of the charm of the times. Trees are lush, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, and the air is naturally much better.

If you have time, you must come here and experience the beautiful life of the country people.

Shanghai is also an ancient town, and there are many. There are more than a dozen large and small, and there are four or five well-known ones. Shanghai's ancient towns don't accept big tickets, and they are free to enter and leave, which is very good.

1 .Zhujiajiao

Zhujiajiao ranks first among the ancient towns in Shanghai and is the favorite ancient town of Shanghai people. Zhujiajiao, located in Qingpu District, west of Shanghai, has a large scale and retains the complete customs of Jiangnan water town in Ming and Qing Dynasties. Rivers in the ancient town are densely covered, paddle boats shuttle back and forth, and narrow streets and lanes are constantly visited by tourists. There are several scenic spots in the ancient town that can only be entered by buying tickets. Kezhi Garden is a typical garden in the ancient town.

2. fengjing ancient town

Fengjing is located in Jinshan District, southwest of Shanghai, adjacent to Jiashan County, Zhejiang Province. There is a river in this ancient town, which used to be the dividing line between ancient wuyue and China. Fengjing Town once belonged to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. Fengjing has many specialties, such as Ding Ti, Da Rouzong, smoked wiredrawing and so on.

3. Xinchang Ancient Town

Located in Pudong, you can take the subway to Xinchang, and then transfer to a bus or taxi. Xinchang ancient town is relatively well preserved, and there are not many tourists because of its little fame. At that time, the film Lust, Caution was filmed in an ancient town. Xinchang ancient town is not too far from the wildlife park, so we can go and have a look together.

Xinchang ancient town

Others include Qibao Ancient Town, Nanxiang Ancient Town, Jinze Ancient Town, Sijing Ancient Town, Luodian Ancient Town and Li Antang Ancient Town. Although small in scale, they all have certain characteristics.

Li Antang ancient town

Li Antang Old Street, with a history of 1000 years, is located in the west of Songjiang District, Shanghai, where the style of Jiangnan water town still exists. There are more than 65,438+00 ancient bridges in the town, spanning the banks of the river in Qingqing City. This river, like the soul bond of the old street, embodies all the elements of the old town and provides Shanghai with the last charm of the south of the Yangtze River in this international city. What's even more rare is that there are no numerous noisy bars and merchants, and more space is left for the water people who still live comfortably here, and it also provides a place for travelers who come out for vacation to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and listen to the rhythm of nature.

Qibao ancient town

Qibao ancient town, located in the southwest of Shanghai, has a long history, estimated to be about 1000 years. Lu Ji and Lu Yun, famous writers in Jin Dynasty, were killed by Sima Ying, the king of Chengdu. The descendants of the Lu family built a Lu Baoyuan here to worship them. Subsequently, because of the strong incense in the temple, people gradually gathered here, and houses stood everywhere, forming a large-scale ancient town. As for the exact time when it was formed, there is no textual research. There are many scenic spots in the ancient town, such as Zhang Chongren Memorial Hall, Qibao Brewery, Zhouwei Sculpture Museum and Qibao Pawnshop.

Zhujiajiao

Zhujiajiao ranks first among the four famous towns in Shanghai, which can be said to be the most famous ancient town in Shanghai with a very long history. However, the business atmosphere is already very heavy, and it is more convenient to eat and drink than other ancient towns, but the flow of people is also quite large. Aquatic products are the signature here. There are river shrimps, hairy crabs and so on. More than 20 scenic spots have been developed and opened in Guzhen District, mainly including Dianshan Lake and the ancestor of Jiu Feng-Dianshan Mountain, Kezhiyuan, Zhuxi Park, Zhujiajiao Town God Temple, Wang Guan Temple, Fangsheng Bridge, Taian Bridge, Fuxing Bridge, Huimin Bridge, Yichengtai Sauce Garden, Tongtianhe and Guoyaohui Teahouse, Cimen Temple, Xishitang and Fulv Shredded Paper.

Although the ancient towns around Shanghai are not as famous as Xitang Wuzhen, the water is quiet and has a unique taste.

The following are six ancient towns worth visiting in Shanghai.

I hope my answer is helpful to you.

If you are not from Shanghai, you are talking nonsense here. Don't add up the ancient towns that are not in Shanghai. Ancient towns in Shanghai: Zhujiajiao, Kanazawa, Xinchang, Longhua, Gao Qiao, Qibao, Fengjing, Nanxiang, Zhao Jialou, Luodian and Sijing. None of these ancient towns accept tickets.
