Walking into Gankeng Ancient Town in Longgang, Shenzhen, it feels like stepping back into the Hakka settlements of the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Old blue-brick houses, carved window lattices, and the faint aroma of tea wafting through the alleys🍵
The ancient town may not be large, but it's packed with stories—the grandeur of Zhuangyuan Mansion, the elegance of Nanxianglou, and the leisurely moments by the small bridges of the waterside village.
That day, the Guandi Temple happened to be distributing porridge and gifts for good fortune. It was so warm that even the breeze felt like it carried blessings. ❤️
Wandering through the town, there's no rush. Just letting your heart drift along with the rhythm of the ancient town~🍂
