Wandering Through Jingtang Ancient Village, Remembering the Love of Nine Er's Former Lover, and Her Former Chamber
That vast expanse of fields nearby
The fragrance of jujube blossoms beside me
Golden millet ripening, turning the sky red
Nine Er, I send you away to a faraway place

Jingtang Ancient Village
Jingtang Ancient Village is located 15 kilometers southwest of the Qingzhou District Central Area of Shandong Province, it is a village with more than 500 years of vicissitudes and storms, still well-preserved Ming Dynasty architectural features. Jingtang Ancient Village was built as early as the seventh year of the Jingtai reign of the Ming Dynasty (1456). The village is named because there is a clear spring under the Linglong Mountain to the southeast, which never dries up, forming a pond, and the villagers built a stone well and raised it high, hence the name of the village. In 2014, Jingtang Ancient Village was listed as Shandong Province's first batch of provincial traditional village.

The villagers here are very simple and honest, the stalls sell things without bargaining, mineral water 1 yuan, old ice cream 1 yuan, homemade honey candied fruit 2 yuan, fresh ground bean curd 2 yuan... and they are all smiling and inviting you to take a stroll, saying that your courtyard is so beautiful. This makes me envious of the life here.
Convenient transportation, parking is not charged, ticket price 40 yuan. Two words: Special! The village is built on the mountain, with mountain springs at the entrance of the village. It's October, and the water is still very large. The village also has a sense of spirit. Climb up the steps, and there are many stone houses on both sides, mostly dilapidated, and no one lives here. The residents have moved to the foot of the mountain. There are many old ladies selling baskets woven from corn leaves by the roadside. It feels like you have never left the village. Conclusion: Highly recommended, very impressed.

I heard that this place has been good for several years and I haven't been able to go. Finally, with a few photography friends, we drove to this place. The people there are simple and enthusiastic, and they are not very rich, quite original, and the ticket price is not expensive, only forty yuan. If you have a photography association certificate, you can enter for free. There are many enthusiastic people welcoming us to shoot...
Having looked at so much, have the little friends been moved? Let's take action quickly and go to the Qizhou area to enjoy the rich cultural atmosphere of Jingtang Ancient Village! Xiao Yu is waiting for you here~
