The best ancient town to experience within 3 hours from Changsha~.

Yangloudong is located in Chibi City, Hubei Province, at an important location at the junction of Hunan and Hubei. It is the "source of the tea ceremony in Europe and Asia" and has the reputation of "the hometown of brick tea".
There is a Ming and Qing slate street here that started 400 years ago. It is about 1 kilometer long. The ancient buildings on both sides of the street are well preserved. From every brick and tile, you can vaguely feel the bustling scene of "thousands of merchants gathered together"~
The ancient town is completely free, and the degree of commercialization is "restrained but not exaggerated", which is not annoying. Here you can see small shops full of literary and artistic atmosphere, as well as high-quality and cheap local snacks, making people feel like they have returned to the hometown they dreamed of when they were children. for example:
Maltose has a low melting point and requires constant stirring🍡🍡.
Sweet, sour and extremely fresh local cherries🍒🍒.
The clear and cold stream where you can touch the mountain snails🏖️🏖️.
Tourists wearing various ancient costumes👑👑.
In short, Yangloudong is an ancient town worth visiting. It can be reached in 3 hours from Changsha. It is super suitable for weekend fun [Love][Love][Love]
