Overview of the Spring Festival in Gantong Ancient Town Speaking of Gantong Ancient Town, I have to say that the carved beams and painted buildings here are beautiful. It can be said that "every family has carved beams and every household has running water". Coming here is like walking into an ancient town, with small bridges and flowing water and quiet scenery.
The ancient town of Qiantong has a long history. More than 700 years of history makes it quieter. Maybe you are not familiar with it, but because of this, it becomes less commercialized, just like the unknown scenery in the Peach Blossom Garden!
The ancient town of Qiantong, with a small area, is full of antique old buildings. Walking in the old street here and looking at the old buildings on both sides, I not only began to think back, but also wondered if there was anyone who was in the same mood as myself in that past time.
During the Spring Festival, when I came here, the tenth day of the first month was the most lively start. The lantern festival is held here, which is a kind of parade. Among them, the Drum Tower is the most distinctive and unique in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
On the fourteenth day of the first month, the grandchildren of eighteen children's families will patrol the village with a group of carefully carved pavilions. The pavilion mentioned here is actually a small stage where boys and girls standing or standing in the village are chic. They put on costumes and makeup, played emperors, princes, gifted scholars and beautiful women, and walked all the way through the crowd with colorful satin whips in their hands.
In fact, when it comes to the origin of the ancient town of Qiantong, it is mostly because all the people living here are surnamed Tong, and it is also the largest gathering place of children's surnames in Jiangnan.
The streets here are lined with antique buildings, mostly in Ming and Qing styles, elegant and atmospheric. The whole ancient town still uses the layout of "Hui" in Jiugong Bagua. Although the area is not large, it is also like a maze, and it feels great!
