    Hongjiang Ancient Commercial Town

    The Hongjiang Ancient Commercial Town boasts more than 380 intact ancient structures erected during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, covering an area of 100,000 square meters.This Town is a well-known scenic spot in China\\\'s Hunan Province. The town boasts more than 380 intact ancient structures erected during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, covering an area of 100,000 square meters. The buildings endured the ages with some wear, but they remain vivid reminders of the luxurious lifestyle of wealthy merchants.Hongjiang took shape in the Tang Dynasty (AD 618-907) and flourished in the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties.It once served as the assembly and distribution center for various commodities - including oil, logs, opium and white wax-for seven nearby provinces and regions due to its location at the confluence of the Wushui and Yuanshui rivers.Recently in Hongjiang, a grand and graceful Chinese style fresco painting was discovered. The fresco depicts the  character \\\"Fu\\\" (meaning \\\"Fortune\\\" in Chinese) which often appears in paintings of animals such as magpies, red-crowned cranes, sika deer, and tortoises. This fresco embodies the rosy prospect of \\\"Hongfuqitian\\\" (an idiom means being supremely fortunate, with a homophone of \\\"Hong\\\" as Hongjiang in the first word) with five implications of fortune, promotion, longevity, happiness, and wealth in the form of animal paintings. The fresco\\\'s style is exclusive to Hongjiang Ancient Commercial Town, and remains a unique work of art even at the national level.Transport: Visitors can take a bus from Huaihua South Station to get there. The bus fare is RMB20 yuan.Tel: (86)745-7632579Admission (for reference): RMB60 yuan/adultOpening hours: 8:00-17:30
