Discovering Hidden British Vibes in Jiezi Ancient Town and Qingcheng Back Mountain
Jiezi Ancient Town in Chongzhou, Chengdu, boasts over twenty historical sites, including Guangyan Chan Temple, Fengqi Mountain Tourist Scenic Area, a thousand-acre primeval forest, thousand-year-old ginkgo trees, ancient nanmu trees, Qing Dynasty pagodas, and a historic architecture street from the late Qing and early Republican periods. Push open the heavy door and walk into the streets and alleys carved by centuries—time’s imprints are clearly visible on the weathered walls. We can’t peer into the world behind these walls, just as we can’t return to the town’s past. This kind of rustic charm feels as if time stands still here, much like writing your own history book with family and friends. Staying here and soaking in the atmosphere makes for a great choice for a family autumn vacation.
