Zhenyuan Ancient Town Guizhou: 2000-Year History, Riverside景
China's Most Beautiful Hidden Town with a 2000-Year History

Welcome to Zhenyuan Ancient Town in Guizhou Province, a 2000-year-old settlement with around 40,000 residents. It’s a China 5A scenic area with free entry and easy access via train, thanks to its station. The town sits along the Wuyang River, which curves in an S shape and divides the town into two sides. Surrounded by mountains, climbing to the top yields a painting-like view of the town. The architecture is uniform, creating a strong sense of visual order when seen from afar. Train lovers can even watch trains pass through mountain tunnels. The town feels very tranquil, with beautiful scenery and limited commercialization, making it an ideal place for relaxed exploration along its main streets, riverside paths, and parks.
