Wangkou Ancient Village
汪口古村
A Huizhou-style ancient village on the eastern route where the Shen and Jiang rivers meet. Its one-li stone-paved Guanlu Street and the Yu Clan Ancestral Hall, with exquisite woodcarvings, are the highlights.
Wangkou is in Jiangwan Town. Historically it was a river trading port, where two rivers meet in front of the village and the water opens wide. Along the river runs Guanlu Street, a stone-paved road about half a kilometer long lined with shops and houses. The Yu Clan Ancestral Hall, built in the Qianlong era of the Qing dynasty, has intricate woodcarvings on its beams and brackets, and it is hailed as an “art palace.” The village also has Pingdu Weir, a Qing-era water conservancy project. Admission is about CNY 60, or you can use the Wuyuan pass. Allow about 1.5 hours. It is on the eastern route with Jiangwan and Xiaoqi, about 30 km from the county seat.
