Zhenyuan Ancient Town

Located in Qiandongnan Prefecture, Guizhou Province, Zhenyuan Ancient Town is a historic city with over 2,200 years of history, renowned as the "Venice of the East." Its landscape features a harmonious blend of mountains and rivers with enduring ancient charm, where the Wuyang River meanders through the town in an "S" shape, forming a natural Taiji diagram. The town is adorned with well-preserved Ming and Qing dynasty architecture—blue bricks, dark tiles, and upturned eaves—creating a picturesque scene of deep, winding alleys. Historic sites like the Green Dragon Cave and Zhusheng Bridge remain intact. At night, Zhenyuan becomes even more enchanting, with dazzling riverside lights reflecting on the water like a dream. Nearby natural attractions such as the Wuyang River Scenic Area and Shiping Mountain further enhance the town's ethereal beauty.
