Nantou Ancient Town

Not bad for a few hours, plenty of eateries inside, although it’s not what one expects, remarkably not as “ancient!”. Nice to wander about and good to go on a week day or non-holiday to avoid crowds. Vintage stores and lots of art galleries. Inside also some history and halls dedicated to historical figures.

Great place for sightseeing especially through the old streets it’s a great vibe. Wouldn’t recommend for a whole day though I’d say you’ll get through it all in like an hour or an hour and a half at the most.

Nantou Ancient City is separated from the place where I live by a flyover. Most of my daily time is left to the ancient city. There are many cafes in the ancient city. I like to be in a daze. There are many local specialty snacks such as Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. It is also the historical reservation of Shenzhen. At least two or three days a week, go to the ancient city to drink coffee every time. Suo repeatedly proved how much I love the renovated Nantou Ancient City. Holidays are also too crowded. It is recommended to play on the staggered peak. You can go slowly. It is very leisurely. The restaurant and homestay are relaxing. Every store is screened by Vanke. You can rest assured.
