Hey😎, in this magical place called Yunnan, there's a super niche ancient town🎇, so niche that it can't get any more niche😜! No tickets needed🎫, it's peaceful and serene, with few people around, making it a paradise for travelers🤩! This is Mojiang Bixi Ancient Town🏯! Bixi Ancient Town was originally named Bishuo, a name that symbolizes the green mountains and tranquil atmosphere🎄, so poetic😃. There are clear streams flowing on both the east and west sides🌊, with a fertile field in front of the village👨‍🌾 and lush green mountains behind🏞, hence the name 'Bixi'. ✈️Public Transportation 1️⃣Take a train to Mojiang Station🚂, and at the bus stop on the left side of the exit square, you can take a minibus🚌 for just 5 yuan, which takes about 15 minutes to reach the entrance of the First Middle School. Haha, it's hard to get a Didi ride here😅, but if you're super lucky, you might catch a car that's just dropping off passengers. 2️⃣After getting off, the old bus station is right across the street, no sign, just a place with many parked cars😜. Take the bus from Mojiang to Bixi, get off at the terminal, it costs 7 yuan one way, and takes 15-30 minutes. The bus is a bit old, so be prepared😝. 3️⃣Then return the same way, and you can try booking a ride to the train station🚉 once you reach the county town. 💰Ticket Information ✅Free! Free! Free!

Mojiang, a place known as 'the place where the sun turns around.' It has always haunted my dreams, and today I finally made it here. The Tropic of Cancer passes through Mojiang County, hence it is also known as 'the home of the Hani, the city of the Tropic, and the home of twins.' The Mojiang Tropic of Cancer Marker Park, located to the west of Mojiang County town and themed around 'Tropic of Cancer culture,' is one of the largest and most comprehensive Tropic of Cancer marker parks in the world. The scenic area is planned and designed with novelty and style. From the foot of the mountain to the top, there are sequentially built: the Gate of Return, the Sun Path, Kuafu Chasing the Sun, Stone Circle, Transcendence, Sun and Moon Brilliance, Sundial Timing, Sun Viewing Tower, Main Marker Pavilion, Gemini Square, Planetarium, Stonehenge Square, Hani Fire Taking Platform, West Gate Scenic Steps, Moon Square, and other 15 groups of attractions. The Tropic of Cancer, also known as the Summer Solstice Line, is the northernmost boundary on Earth where the sun's rays can shine directly, approximately at 23°26'N (generally estimated to be 23.5°). The Tropic of Cancer is a latitude line with multidisciplinary significance in astronomical and climatic features. Every year on the summer solstice (when the sun's ecliptic longitude is 90°), the sun's rays almost directly strike the Tropic of Cancer, and at this time, the daytime duration in the Northern Hemisphere reaches its longest for the year. Due to the high angle of the sun directly shining on the Tropic of Cancer, the phenomenon of 'no shadow at noon' occurs on the Tropic of Cancer. It's really worth a visit, and moreover, there are popular spots for social media check-ins, which are very photogenic. 🎈Travel Tips and Recommended Itinerary ✅Tropic of Cancer Marker Park ✅Twin Town ✅Bixi Ancient Town (few people, not heavily commercialized) 🚩Highlights ✅You can take a flying carpet up and down ✅Visit the Planetarium ✅3D movie 20/person (includes astronomy, geography, science popularization, garden art, folk culture, etc.) 🍵Food Recommendations ✅Oil-soaked heart tube, fried sweet rice balls, oyster sauce mango, litsea cubeba boiled fish ✅Rice noodles, rice vermicelli ✅Braised chicken in soy sauce, pickled meat ✅Green grass dumplings, Huashan family 🏠Accommodation Recommendations ✅Wyndham ✅Lanting Garden ✅Tropic of Cancer Hotel 🚙Transport Information ✅High-speed train to Mojiang Station, take a taxi to the city center (about 15Y) 🕑Opening Hours ✅08:30-18:30 📍Scenic Area Address ✅Tropic of Cancer Marker Park, Mojiang Hani Autonomous County, Pu'er City 💰Ticket Information ✅Full price: 40Y/person

A town so niche it couldn't get any more niche, no entrance fee, tranquil and sparsely populated, especially suitable for visiting. This place is Mojiang Bixi Ancient Town. Bixi Ancient Town was originally named Bishuo, derived from the green mountains and the tranquil meaning of 'shuo'. With a clear stream on each side of the town, fertile farmland in front, and green mountains behind, it was later renamed 'Bixi'. Bixi Ancient Town is embraced by a moat, once surrounded by tall city walls. Although the walls are now in ruins, the ancient relics that remain are still clearly visible, as if telling the story of its past prosperity. Strolling through Bixi Ancient Town is like returning to the once bustling Tea Horse trade town. Here, we can imagine the busy scenes of merchants on the ancient Tea Horse Road, the sound of horse hooves echoing through the valleys, goods being traded, and cultures colliding. With its simple and honest folk customs and inclusive culture, Pu'er Bixi Ancient Town makes every visitor feel the warmth and sincerity of the land. 🎈Bixi Ancient Town Travel Tips ✅Octagonal Tower ✅Li Xiushan Residence ✅Zhang Pengguang Residence ✅Yu Enyang's Former Residence 🚩One-Day Tour Route ✅Mojiang County Town — Mojiang Confucian Temple — Mojiang Tropic of Cancer Marker Park — Mojiang International Twin Culture Park — Bixi Ancient Town 🍵Food Recommendations ✅Purple Rice Series ✅Bixi Tofu ✅Rice Noodles, etc. 🌟PS: If you don't want to eat in Bixi Ancient Town, it's recommended to eat in Mojiang County Town (International Twin Town, Hani Food Street, Gongyangshun Street) 🏠Accommodation Recommendations ✅Bixi Ancient Town (limited accommodations, basic conditions) 🌟PS: You can stay in Mojiang County Town, since it's very close (Gemini Star Hotel, Lantingyuan Hotel, Twin Hotel, Hani Secret Hotel, Mancheng Hotel, Tropic of Cancer Hotel) 🚙Transportation Information ✅Self-driving: Navigate to Bixi Ancient Town ✅Bus: You can take a bus opposite Mojiang No.1 Middle School, with a bus every half hour (7Y/person) ✅Taxi: About 30Y (remember, it's hard to arrange a return trip) 💰Ticket Information ✅Free
