About Jiezi Ancient Town

Its lanes, bridges and ginkgo square make a compact introduction to the western Sichuan townscape. The Ziku Tower recalls the custom of respectfully collecting and burning written paper, while Tang Gong Shrine connects the town with poet Tang Qiu. These details give the walk a cultural focus beyond the food stalls. Mountain temples require a separate climb and should not be treated as part of a quick town loop.

What to look for

  • The Ziku Tower preserves the local tradition of respecting written paper.
  • Tang Gong Shrine, ginkgo square and river bridges give the historic core a varied walking route.
