#mytraveldiary 成都洛带古镇 This is my first trip to Chengdu and decided to visit day trip to Luodai Ancient Town (洛带古镇). Took train alight at (line 4) xihe station (西河站)and taxi/didi to the ancient town. Luodai Ancient Town featuring an old street and shops. The town preserves Hakka residential architecture and is famous for its representative buildings. (客家民宅建築)including the Guangdong Guild Hall and the Jiangxi Guild Hall (廣東會館、江西會館) etc.. There is a museum (2nd and 3rd floor) inside the Hakka Guild Hall (客家古楼). The history of this old town. It is a very interesting ancient town and worth to visit.
