I haven't been to Dayi for many years.
This week, I suddenly decided to go for a walk around the area, so I chose it.
When I got out of the high-speed rail station, the taxi driver said that there was nothing in Anren Ancient Town, and suggested I go to Xiling Snow Mountain instead.
My family and I smiled and went out for a walk. The train was very convenient, and we arrived in no time.
Sure enough, the town was quiet and not crowded, but the air was very good, which was perfect for relaxing.
I followed the crowd and bought a ticket to visit the Liu's Manor Museum, Liu Wenhui's Mansion, and other places. The courtyards from the Republic of China period had a unique rustic charm.
A little surprise: the tram!
There are tram tracks on the streets of Dayi, and you can take a slow tram to tour the whole town. (It is really slow, not faster than walking)
Food: I randomly chose a skewer shop and a stir-fry shop, and both were very good, delicious and inexpensive, which was a pleasant surprise.

Xinchang Ancient Town, still of old flavor
#100waysoftravel Ancient town was first setup in the Eastern Han dynasty and flourish during the Ming. Some old historical structures still stand ;like the governor's house, temples, the town's river brook, Ming & Qing houses. Local foods here like the preserved eggs is unusual , however there are also alot of farm fresh produce. This trip opens my eyes to smaller town country folks and their life thoroughfare & the products important to them.
To get there, take high speed train from Chengdu to Dayi ( 30 min) .At terminal , take bus 210..

Ya'an, Sichuan - Chengdu
2024.9.30
Cloudy weather in Chengdu, temperature 14-22 degrees, G5 Jingkun Expressway - S8 Chengming Expressway.
Today, we arrived in Chengdu from Ya'an, all the way on the expressway, and arrived in Dayi County in the morning. Surrounded by many popular scenic spots around Chengdu, there is a low-key and peaceful ancient town hidden - Anren Ancient Town.
Anren Ancient Town (5A), has the honors of "National Historical and Cultural Town", "National Garden City Town", "First Batch of National Characteristic Towns", etc., and is the only "China Museum Town" named by the China Museums Association.
The core scenic area covers an area of 3 square kilometers, including three core resources: Gongguan Old Street, Liu's Manor Museum and Jianchuan Museum Cluster. Due to time constraints, we only visited Gongguan Old Street (Figure 1), which represents one of the histories of Anren Ancient Town.
There are generally three types of "ancient towns" in China: 1. Original and unadorned, with indigenous residents, such as Anjing Ancient Town; 2. Newly built, purely commercialized imitation ancient buildings, such as Luxiang Ancient Town; 3. Protective development of ancient buildings, restoration of old as old, indigenous residents have moved out, such as Anren Ancient Town.
The name of Anren Ancient Town is derived from the ancient saying "Benevolent people live in peace", and it has a historical precipitation of nearly 1400 years. The architectural style of the ancient town integrates the customs of the Sichuan-Tibetan people and the romance of Europe. The blue bricks and tiles exude an ancient fragrance, which can be called a "Museum of Ming and Qing Architecture". Its representative is the 27 best-preserved Chinese and Western eclectic old mansion groups in the country, located on both sides of Gongguan Old Street in the ancient town (Figure 2). These mansions witnessed the glorious history of the Liu family and the social changes at that time (Figures 3-7).
Liu's Manor Museum (i.e. Liu Wencai Landlord Manor) (Figure 8).
Jianchuan Museum Cluster named after Fan Jianchuan, a famous private collector in China (Figure 9).
Tonight, we will stay in Chengdu (altitude 460 meters). Tomorrow, we will visit the surrounding areas and then head towards the airport.

Anren Ancient Town
Anren Ancient Town is known as a museum-style ancient town, with museums along the streets. The architectural style of the ancient town is distinct, featuring both stone carvings and wood carvings that are very intricate and exquisite. Additionally, the ancient town still retains a small tramway, but perhaps due to timing, I did not see the small tram nor did I get to ride it. The town has traditional handicrafts such as stone carving, wood carving, and oil-paper umbrellas, as well as new handicrafts like bamboo weaving, shell weaving, and shell painting. The ancient town is quiet, suitable for leisurely strolls and night tours. There are many homestays within the ancient town, making it convenient for accommodation. Nearby, there are also the former residences of Liu Wencai and Liu Wenhui, which are worth a visit.

The ancient towns around Chengdu are severely underrated, with a retro charm that's great for photography
The ancient towns around Chengdu are numerous, and many of them you wouldn't visit more than once. But Anren Ancient Town is one that I've revisited multiple times after my first visit.
I love the grey and white bricks and tiles in the ancient town, the clanging trams, and the courtyards in the mansions filled with pomelos. I can't help but raise my camera and snap away. Below is a guide to visiting and photographing Anren.
👉How to enjoy Anren Ancient Town:
✅Stroll through the old streets: Along a century-old street built next to the mansions, you can see oil-paper umbrellas and tie-dyed fabrics. Walking down the street in a cheongsam and holding an oil-paper umbrella, you'll be fully immersed in the Republican-era atmosphere, and every shot is beautiful~
✅Visit exhibitions: If you love exhibitions, you must come to Anren Ancient Town. There are limited-time oil painting exhibitions, photography exhibitions in August...
✅Ride the tram: A feature of Anren, it has the first tram in the southwest 🚃. Ride the tram from the old street all the way to Liu's Manor and experience the beauty of Anren~
✅Watch plays: The most surprising thing about Anren is the free plays I watched for a day. From stage dramas to puppet shows, each one is wonderfully presented. Sitting under the pomelo trees and immersively watching the plays, they're so good you won't want to leave 😭
📷How to photograph Anren Ancient Town:
1⃣️The pomelo garden in the mansions, with pomelo trees forming a grove and laden with fruit. Standing under the pomelo trees, any shot you take is picture-perfect~
2⃣️The oil-paper umbrellas on the old streets, Anren's signature must be these umbrellas. Walking under them is like being in a painting~
3⃣️The Republican-era buildings of Anren, including Anren Academy, Anren Old Mansions, and the Republican-era style street, all full of retro charm and great for photography!

Day 1 Anren Ancient Town
The whole ancient town is very large and very atmospheric. The ancient and gloomy old street in the town center, the old buildings with red bricks and gray tiles, are simple and unpretentious, with few people and quiet... There are also trams to ride, it is the place in my heart like the ancient town of Yunnan. Then eat snacks on the central street, the lotus slices and collarbones on the street are really delicious, and the stinky tofu is also delicious, full of fireworks!
Day2 Nan'an Meicun
It is very close to Anren Ancient Town. On the first day, I was tired of folk architecture. The air here is good and the rural scenery is full. You can ride the greenway or walk. The rice fields along the way are green and oily, and the rapeseed flowers are also blooming. The trail is safe and easy, suitable for the whole family, with good scenery and different flower colors all year round. Easily check in to the same wheat field as Xizhou.

Anren Ancient Town, located in Dayi County, Chengdu City, its architectural style is a blend of Chinese and Western, quite the style of the Republic of China, it is a national 5A level scenic spot. The core of the ancient town is: Liu's Manor Museum and Jianchuan Museum.

Liu's Manor is very large, it was the home of the former landlord Liu Wencolor and his brother Liu Wenhue. The main attraction is that the manor still maintains the previous living scene, which can be described as a scene reproduction, allowing people to appreciate the luxury and extravagance of the landlord's home.

Ancient town of Anren
A well-known ancient town around Chengdu.
I've visited this ancient town several times, and it's been many years since I last came. The ancient town is also changing. I chose Youxue Wang for lunch.
The landlord's manor, water prison, and rent collection courtyard in Anren Town were once very well-known.
I visited the Manor Museum (Landlord's Manor) again, the water prison was restored to xx warehouse, and the large-scale clay sculpture rent collection courtyard is still the original scene.

Anren Ancient Town | Another kind of country wind
Anren is the most special one, in the ancient town I have been to.
The antique building is not like a flying raft. It is a small ancient town dominated by the folk style. Everything is simple and elegant. The strange thing is that this style is more than an antique building to taste the taste of an old time.
is probably a very small number of tourists, and there is no reason why it has been meticulously carved. When I step into the ancient town of Anren, it is a different kind of wonderful feeling. Everything is old, roadside The grandfather sold his homemade spicy tofu, and the storefront business on the main road was deserted. The store did not attract customers, and he made a bunch of chats about himself.
The kind of feeling is probably derived from the "grounding gas" here, without the whitewash, but the real peace of mind.
was built in the Tang Dynasty, and now we can see the old-style neighborhoods and buildings built in the early Republic of China. The Anren Theatre, built with gray brick walls, is one of the landmark buildings. We walked through the trails like residential houses nearby, the wooden thresholds were very old, and the iron rings on the doors were old and nice.
is also funny, nowadays, everything is new, even the antique buildings are shiny, we like these old.
Transportation: Buy a bus ticket from the tea shop passenger terminal to Anren Ancient Town, the fare is 15 yuan, and the journey takes about 1 hour. There is still a distance to the ancient town after the bus station in Anren, and all the cars will be parked at the entrance. One person can send the entrance to the ancient town for four or five yuan.
It is worth reminding that the last bus back to Chengdu is about 5 stores, so you need to grasp the return time.
No tickets, Liu's manor time is different from the open garden. When we go, the old public is open, and the ticket is 30 yuan.
The country's national wind Anren ancient town is quite unique, the current popularity of the ancient town is not particularly high, so visitors will not be too much, recommend a go.
