Guangxi is not only home to Guilin | but also this forgotten ancient town

| but also this forgotten ancient town. Huangyao Ancient Town, a village forgotten by time, seems like a window through time, taking us back to the prosperous era of a thousand years ago. This small town located in Zhaoping County of Hezhou, Guangxi, is hidden among green mountains and waters. Stepping into Huangyao Ancient Town, I felt as if I had entered a time tunnel, with an ancient scroll unfolding before my eyes. The old gate towers stand tall and proud, witnessing the passage of time and the vicissitudes of history. The inscriptions on the gate towers are faintly visible, exuding a sense of historical weight. The stone-paved streets crisscross, exuding an ancient charm, these stones have borne the footsteps of countless people and the baptism of time. Walking into the streets and alleys of the ancient town, magnificent ancient buildings come into view. The residential houses from the Ming and Qing dynasties are scattered in an orderly manner, with blue bricks and black tiles, flying eaves and rising corners, exuding a strong Lingnan (southern China) style. The layout of the courtyards in the houses is exquisite, with rockeries, flowing water, and lush flowers and trees, each detail revealing the owner's pursuit of life quality and yearning for harmony with nature. These historical buildings carry the wisdom and craftsmanship of the town's residents, showcasing the treasures of Chinese architectural culture. As an ancient village with a thousand years of history, Huangyao Ancient Town is also the Meitan Mansion in the movie 'The Painted Veil'. The entire village is surrounded by beautiful landscapes, with ancient trees and green bricks and tiles, winding lanes, and healing sunlight casting through towering trees onto the bluestone paths, offering a healing and relaxed sense of originality.
