Jinkeng Village
金坑古村
A mountain village in western Shaowu with well-preserved Ming and Qing dwellings and over a hundred slogans left by the Red Army, a 3A-rated red tourism site.
Jinkeng Township lies in the western section of the Wuyi Mountains, in western Shaowu on the border with Jiangxi, and retains relatively pristine mountain forest. Within it, Jinkeng Village has extensive Ming and Qing dwellings, ancestral halls and old lanes. Its walls preserve more than a hundred slogans left by the Central Red Army during its battles in the Fujian-Jiangxi Soviet area. It is designated a 3A-rated red tourism site. Visitors are few, which makes it suited to self-drive travelers who enjoy old villages and Red history. A visit takes about 1 to 2 hours and is free. It is about 45 km from the city center and lies on the way to Heping Ancient Town.
