Liangnong Ancient Town

Liangnong is a historic and cultural town in Zhejiang Province. During the War of Resistance against Japan, it was the heart of the Siming Mountain revolutionary base. Historically, it was also an important stop along the Tang Poetry Road of Eastern Zhejiang, where many poets such as Li Bai and Pi Rixiu once lingered. The town features historical sites such as the Five Osmanthus Tower, Song Dynasty tomb stone carvings, and the horseshoe-shaped street, as well as revolutionary landmarks like the Memorial Hall of the Eastern Zhejiang Base Area, the former headquarters of the New Fourth Army’s Eastern Zhejiang Column, and the Siming Mountain Revolutionary Martyrs' Cemetery. The harmony of natural beauty and cultural heritage here is truly captivating.
