Explore the Chengmai Sister Towers and the 'Longevity Village' of Luoyi Ancient Village

The Hainan Meilang Sister Towers, also known as the Sister Towers, are almost known to everyone in Chengmai and have a history of more than 800 years. The 'Elder Sister Tower' is hexagonal and five-story, while the 'Younger Sister Tower' is square and seven-story. Compared with the two towers, the Elder Sister Tower is more atmospheric, and the Younger Sister Tower is more delicate. There is a Song Dynasty stone bridge between the two towers. These towers represent a father's love for his daughter.
Luoyi Ancient Village is a famous historical and cultural ancient village in Hainan, and it is also a famous 'Longevity Village' in Chengmai. The entire village is located between two dragon ponds, one south and one north, with houses built around the pond. It seems scattered and disorganized, but the layout is wonderful. The mottled walls, narrow bluestone alleys, ancient trees and wells, and volcanic stone brick walls outline a beautiful picture, telling the vicissitudes of time.
