Baipu Ancient Town
白蒲镇
A thousand-year-old town in southern Rugao, with Ming and Qing streets and old houses still standing; Baipu dried tofu and yellow rice wine are local specialities.
Baipu lies in the south of Rugao, between Nantong and Rugao. It has been a town for more than a thousand years, and its old streets retain Ming and Qing dwellings, Fabao Chan Temple, the Gu clan ancestral hall and more. The town's dried tofu (chagan) and yellow rice wine are famous Nantong specialities. The old town has little commercial development, making it ideal for a leisurely half-day stroll and shopping for dried tofu. It is free to enter. About 35 km from Nantong city, it is a 45-minute drive, and it can be visited en route to Shuihui Garden in Rugao.
