Lingnan ancient villages, Jinlin water town
Nestled between towering mountains, the tranquil Jinlin water town is embedded in the embrace of Guanwei Town, Deqing County, Zhaoqing City.
According to historical records, Jinlin water town has been inhabited since the Tang Dynasty. After a thousand years of vicissitudes, it still retains a large number of ancient architectural complexes and folk cultures from the Ming and Qing dynasties. Within the village, ancient water wheels turn leisurely, as if telling the tales of the years; the imposing ancient artillery fort stands silently, witnessing the brave chapters of defending against foreign enemies in the past.
