Changlinhe Ancient Town
长临河镇
A Jianghuai ancient town on the north shore of Chaohu Lake, with bluestone streets, Huizhou-style old homes and a century-old post and telecom office, quieter than Sanhe.
Changlinhe Ancient Town lies on the north shore of Chaohu Lake in Feidong County. Historically it was a lakeside trading port. It retains bluestone-paved old streets, the Wu family residence, a century-old post and telecom office, an ancient opera stage and other Ming, Qing and Republican-era buildings. After recent restoration, it now houses guesthouses, cafés and craft shops for intangible cultural heritage. Its atmosphere is peaceful, making it a popular stop on Ring Chaohu Avenue. Admission is free. Nearby are Sidingshan Mountain and the Liujiafan ancient residences. You can cycle or drive along Ring Chaohu Avenue to link them with Zhongmiao and Laoshan Island. Getting there: about 50 minutes by car from downtown Hefei, or by bus.
