Yunnan Off-the-Beaten-Path Travel Guide, a historic town with a history of over 600 years

A town so niche it couldn't get any more niche, no entrance fee, tranquil and sparsely populated, especially suitable for visiting. This place is Mojiang Bixi Ancient Town. Bixi Ancient Town was originally named Bishuo, derived from the green mountains and the tranquil meaning of 'shuo'. With a clear stream on each side of the town, fertile farmland in front, and green mountains behind, it was later renamed 'Bixi'. Bixi Ancient Town is embraced by a moat, once surrounded by tall city walls. Although the walls are now in ruins, the ancient relics that remain are still clearly visible, as if telling the story of its past prosperity. Strolling through Bixi Ancient Town is like returning to the once bustling Tea Horse trade town. Here, we can imagine the busy scenes of merchants on the ancient Tea Horse Road, the sound of horse hooves echoing through the valleys, goods being traded, and cultures colliding. With its simple and honest folk customs and inclusive culture, Pu'er Bixi Ancient Town makes every visitor feel the warmth and sincerity of the land. 🎈Bixi Ancient Town Travel Tips ✅Octagonal Tower ✅Li Xiushan Residence ✅Zhang Pengguang Residence ✅Yu Enyang's Former Residence 🚩One-Day Tour Route ✅Mojiang County Town — Mojiang Confucian Temple — Mojiang Tropic of Cancer Marker Park — Mojiang International Twin Culture Park — Bixi Ancient Town 🍵Food Recommendations ✅Purple Rice Series ✅Bixi Tofu ✅Rice Noodles, etc. 🌟PS: If you don't want to eat in Bixi Ancient Town, it's recommended to eat in Mojiang County Town (International Twin Town, Hani Food Street, Gongyangshun Street) 🏠Accommodation Recommendations ✅Bixi Ancient Town (limited accommodations, basic conditions) 🌟PS: You can stay in Mojiang County Town, since it's very close (Gemini Star Hotel, Lantingyuan Hotel, Twin Hotel, Hani Secret Hotel, Mancheng Hotel, Tropic of Cancer Hotel) 🚙Transportation Information ✅Self-driving: Navigate to Bixi Ancient Town ✅Bus: You can take a bus opposite Mojiang No.1 Middle School, with a bus every half hour (7Y/person) ✅Taxi: About 30Y (remember, it's hard to arrange a return trip) 💰Ticket Information ✅Free
