Take a boat from Wujiang Gallery Wharf to Gongtan Ancient Town. The scenery along the way is picturesque. The inn is not far from the wharf and it is easy to find using Gaode Map Navigation. The entrance is a very elegant store with many blue and white elements and paper-cuts made by the proprietress herself. The overall layout is very stylish, worthy of being one of the "Top 60 Chongqing Characteristic B&Bs"
There are many B&Bs here, but "there is a reason why they are expensive". I strongly recommend the [Rolling Bead Curtain] room type, which has an extremely good orientation. Outside the window are scattered houses, like a painting decorated in it. Whether it is day or night, you will be reluctant to close the rolling curtain. The room is on the fifth floor, the balcony is well ventilated, facing the Wujiang River, and the dock where we boarded the ship is at our feet, so friends who come by boat don't have to worry about not being able to see the dock (the boat is not noisy), the room is next to the small street of the ancient town, not next to the road (very quiet)
The boss's family is very enthusiastic. When we walked to the yard on the second floor, the boss's family warmly greeted us to visit at will, and also told us about the local characteristics. The fruits on the table are free to eat
There are night watchmen in the ancient town at night. It is very novel to see him. He shouted "Happy New Year, Congratulations on your prosperity, be careful of fire and candles... " and knocked on his bamboo tube. When I woke up in such a place, I felt a sense of peace and tranquility.
The ancient town has stone pavement. Don't wear high heels. There are many stairs. Try not to bring a large suitcase. It's best to carry a luggage bag (listen to me, don't make a mistake). There is a traveler's diary in the room. Unfortunately, I didn't find a pen, otherwise I would write down the heights~
Turn right and go straight out of the store. There is a store selling Miao silver refrigerator magnets (made of iron). Their refrigerator magnets are very unique. It is recommended to buy travel souvenirs here (there are currently no scenic refrigerator magnets for sale in the ancient town). There are postcards at the post office and Mr. Bookstore~
We were very lucky and encountered the New Year fireworks. It has been a long time since I saw the beauty of fireworks exploding above my head~ Everything is just right
Don't say that time has passed, how many times in a lifetime can you travel in a painting
