I just came back from a trip to Gankeng Ancient Town in Shenzhen. I was deeply impressed by the history and culture of the ancient town. Gankeng Ancient Town was originally a Hakka settlement and has a long history of more than 300 years. The ancient town was originally an agricultural village, and later gradually developed into a commercial and handicraft center. After protection and development, Gankeng Ancient Town has now become a tourist attraction full of historical charm and cultural heritage.
The ancient town has preserved a large number of ancient buildings, traditional handicrafts and folk culture, forming a comprehensive tourist attraction that integrates historical culture, natural scenery and folk experience. The buildings in the ancient town are mainly Hakka walled houses with unique style and high historical and cultural value.
After arriving at the ancient town, you can visit the quaint buildings at will, and taste authentic food, such as Hakka stuffed tofu, Hakka pickled noodles, glutinous rice cakes, etc. From the main road to the alley, you can find delicious food everywhere 🫄🏼🫄🏼🫄🏼. You can also buy various handicrafts, experience traditional folk activities, etc.! Enjoy the Hakka culture🫡🇨🇳
