Travel to Yongzhou | Shanggangtang Village - Niche and Hidden Gem, Perfectly Avoiding Crowds

✨【Super Niche and Hidden Gem, Perfectly Avoiding Crowds】
Some time ago, I went to Yongzhou. A friend took us around the Yongzhou area for two days, and we were completely captivated by the niche and hidden gem of Shanggangtang Village❗️I must share it with our flower friends❗️

✨【Introduction】
Shanggangtang Village is located in Jiangyong County and was founded during the Tang Dynasty. It is one of the oldest ancient villages discovered in Hunan Province. The village has many historical sites, with well-preserved pavilions and towers, including the Wenchang Pavilion and the Buying Bridge. It is a perfect example of the harmonious unity of human history and natural environment.

🚗【Transportation】
It takes about four hours to drive from Yongzhou city, and about half an hour from Jiangyong County.

💡【Tips】
1⃣️It is recommended to visit the village early in the morning or in the evening. In the morning, there is fog, and if you are lucky, you can see villagers herding cattle back and forth.
2⃣️The attractions in the village are free, mainly including the Wenchang Pavilion, the Song Dynasty mortise and tenon structure of Shoulong Bridge, and other ancient sites, all worth seeing. Visiting the Shanggangtang Museum requires a ticket of 10 yuan per person.
3⃣️It is recommended to bring some water and snacks, as the village is not heavily commercialized and there are few small shops.
4⃣️There is a small hill near the village gate where you can see the panoramic view of the village. Interested friends can go and have a look～
