Shaxi Ancient Town, located in Jianchuan County, Yunnan, China, is known for its quiet, ancient streets. Often referred to simply as "Shaxi," this preserved market town was once a crucial stop on the ancient Tea Horse Road trade route. A quiet alternative to busier towns: Unlike more commercialized towns like Lijiang and Dali, Shaxi maintains an authentic, peaceful, and tranquil atmosphere. It has become a popular spot for travelers seeking a slower pace.
