Longmen Ancient Town – The Living Museum of Sun Clan's Legacy

#chinatravel

Nestled in the foothills of Fuchun Mountains, this 1,800-year-old fortress town is the best-preserved Sun-dynasty settlement in China, home to 90% residents surnamed Sun – descendants of the Eastern Wu emperor Sun Quan

⚔️ Why It's Unique
✔ Maze-like Defense System: 30+ interlinked Song-Ming ancestral halls with hidden escape tunnels
✔ Untouched Commerce Street: Original wooden shopfronts still selling hand-forged knives and sesame candy
✔ Living Traditions: Watch ancient shadow puppetry performed in the 400-year-old Yanshou Hall
