Qingxi Ancient Town, Shanghai｜History in the lens, stories in the coffee.

[RedHeart] [There is history in the lens, and stories in the coffee] I have been to Qingxi Old Street in Fengxian several times. It is said that this is an ancient town that has only been "artificially cultivated" in recent years, but it does not prevent you from strolling around and relaxing on weekends. Strolling in Qingxi Ancient Town, looking forward to encountering the old street scenery unexpectedly. There were few tourists on the streets on weekdays, which might have something to do with the extremely hot weather that day. I looked at the bridge and took some photos on the old street, then hid in a coffee shop to escape the heat. - 📸【Several photography check-in spots】 ① Ancient bridge and flowing water Six ancient bridges from the Ming and Qing dynasties span the sparkling river. Standing on the bridge, taking a wide-angle shot, the ancient bridge and its reflection complement each other, full of ancient style! ② Hai Xiu Fang This is the symbol of glory for Zhang Bi's family, but unfortunately the archway is incomplete and only half of its former size remains. ③ Wanghai Tower The rebuilt Wanghai Tower was built in ancient times, and in the past, one could climb up to see the sea of ​​Fengxian from afar. There is an exhibition on the first floor, and the second floor seems to be a teahouse, and you need to pay to go up. - ☕️【Coffee Time】 If you are tired of shopping, you may want to take a break in one of the specialty coffee shops in the ancient town. ① One-foot Garden Located in the South Garden of Fengxian Ancient House, with lush green trees and long summer days, you can enjoy a quiet afternoon with a cup of coffee and a book, or find a corner to chat. ② Bean Project The decoration inside the store is full of Yunnan style, with tie-dye elements everywhere, and you can taste a sip of coffee made from Yunnan coffee beans. ③ Post Office Cafe The space is refreshing with green and white as the main colors. If the weather is not hot, you can go to the terrace on the second floor and have a cup of ancient town coffee. ———————————————————— In the past two years, several village coffee shops have opened in Fengxian, some of which are located in rice fields.
