Chengdu Surrounding Tour—Less-known ancient town reachable within 1h!!!

In the embrace of Chengdu, there is a hidden ancient town that has not been invaded by commercial atmosphere. It is like a living novel of the market, full of the smoke of the world. Sichuan is famous for its numerous ancient towns, but Luocheng Ancient Town stands out with its uncarved original appearance. Historical Background: Luocheng Ancient Town, since the first year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty (1628), has quietly sat in the corner of history, witnessing 400 years of wind, frost, rain and snow, still retaining the original charm of Bashu culture during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. As one of the top ten ancient towns in Sichuan, its main street layout is like a huge ship, known as the 'Noah's Ark of China'. Attractions Features: The 'Ship-shaped Street' here extends from east to west, with the bow pointing to the east, facing Lingguan Temple, and the 'ship cabin' in the middle is a towering theater, where there will be opera performances during festivals. Strolling in the ancient town, you can enjoy the local famous mutton soup and handmade large tangyuan under the tile roof, and spend a satisfying lunch time. In the afternoon, on the 'ship deck', basking in the warm sun, tasting a bowl of covered-bowl tea, or imitating the local old people to play the long card '247', feel the slow life rhythm here. In Luocheng Ancient Town, every corner is full of tranquility and satisfaction, as if time has slowed down here.
