Where is Shaxi Ancient Town in Yunnan?

Yunnan Shaxi Ancient Town is located in the southeast of Jianchuan County, Yunnan Province.

It borders Huacong Mountain to the east, Eding Mountain and Shibao Mountain to the west. The terrain is high in the north and low in the south. The Heilongjiang River originating from Jianhu Lake merges with the Taoyuan River and then leaves the gorge and flows down the Shaxi River. It winds through the center of the Bazi and flows slowly southward, running through the entire Bazi. Villages inhabited by the Bai people are scattered on both sides of the river. For thousands of years, It is a unique "land of plenty" and "the granary of Jianchuan".

Feel the combination of modern life aesthetics and Shaxi slow life. Ride a horse through every corner of the pastoral village, cross the Yujin Bridge and listen to the echo of the horseshoes flowing in the Heihui River, and feel the slow time in the peaceful and simple ancient town. Walk to the viewing platform of the village at the highest point in Shaxi and overlook Shaxi Bazi.

Places worth visiting in Shaxi:

1. Bailongtan

Because this place has not been developed, it is like a paradise and another village. The road into Longtan is exceptionally clear under the sunshine, and even the air is free. Bailongtan has always maintained its original tranquility, showing its original appearance.

2. Sideng Street

Located in the middle of Shaxi Bazi, on the gentle slope where "Aotou" is located at the northern end of Aofeng Mountain on the west bank of the Heilongjiang River, it is the best part of Shaxi. Feng shui treasure land. Every household on Sideng Street is connected in series, with regular density and distinct layers. There are all kinds of ethnic costumes, tourist souvenirs, and special snacks. The shopkeepers take care of their territory leisurely. No one shouts or hawks, no one solicits customers. Let the money made of paper come and go freely, face it indifferently, and let nature take its course.
