In the southwestern outskirts of Shanghai lies Fengjing Ancient Town, a serene destination that boasts over 1,500 years of rich history. As autumn paints the town in vibrant hues, young travelers are finding themselves enchanted by its timeless charm.
Wandering through the stone pathways, visitors can explore dozens of small food stalls and antique shops, each offering unique local delicacies and treasures. The aroma of traditional snacks fills the air, while artisans display handcrafted goods that reflect the town’s cultural heritage.
Fengjing is the largest water town in Shanghai, crisscrossed by a network of tranquil waterways. A boat tour offers a peaceful journey beneath arching bridges and past historic buildings. Among the three ancient bridges, the Zhihe Bridge stands out as the oldest, with a history spanning 700 years.
As Shanghai hosts significant events like the China International Import Expo, Fengjing Ancient Town continues to thrive, inviting visitors from around the world to experience its beauty and tradition.
