Echoes of Ancient Charm: Xuanhua, the Cultural Ancient City

#SeptemberGoodPlaces2025
Entering Xuanhua Ancient City, the stone and brick walls stand silently, like a weighty history book. Bluestone alleys crisscross, their wooden doors mottled, as if still telling of a prosperous past. Ancient bell towers and memorial archways contrast against the blue sky, exuding a calm and distant atmosphere in the morning light.

The faint aroma of tea wafts from small teahouses on both sides of the street. Occasionally, an old craftsman polishes an object in front of a door, the crisp sound of his hammer echoing with the distant chime of a bell. Walking along the city wall, the view is expansive, imagining the bustling scene of ancient merchants and travelers, accompanied by the hustle and bustle of carriages. At dusk, the setting sun casts a golden glow, stretching the shadows of the city walls. Time seems to slow down here, leaving visitors with a tranquility that transcends time and present.
