Jianshui Lin'an Ancient City China, Yunnan, Jianshui County Last Updated: 05/31/2024 |
| Jianshui is a charming town made-up of historic buildings. Built during the Tang Dynasty and boasting a history of over 1200 years, Jianshui Ancient Town is famous worldwide for housing over 50 immaculately preserved buildings, that mix the Han and the local ethnic styles, thus known as the “Ancient Building Museum” and “Folk Residence Museum.” | |
| The ancient walled city of Jianshui was built 600 years ago, during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Currently, only the Chaoyang tower, at the East Gate, and the Qingyuan tower, at the West Gate, are left standing. Compared with Yunnan’s other ancient towns like Lijiang and Dali, Jianshui is more laid-back. Old-style architectures flank the time-worn back alleys and locals still stick to the town’s traditional lifestyle. The ancient town exudes a tranquil charm luring you to linger and relax. | |
