About Anju Ancient Town

Xinghui Gate leads into Huoshenmiao Street, where stone paving and wooden shopfronts establish the scale of the old settlement. Huguang Guild Hall recalls the communities that gathered here through trade and migration. The street continues towards Xijie and the Qiong River, linking domestic rooms above shops with the former wharf landscape. Restored buildings sit within this inherited pattern rather than forming an entirely untouched old city.

What to look for

  • Xinghui Gate and Huoshenmiao Street: stone entrance and traditional shopfront sequence.
  • Huguang Guild Hall: a historic communal building with a theatrical stage.

Location & getting there

Getting to Anju Ancient Town

Travel to Anju Ancient Town in Tongliang and use the ancient-town visitor reception area below Xinghui Gate. The documented approach climbs through that gate into Huoshenmiao Street; expect changes of level.

General visit reminders

Choose the building, exhibition or part of the historic area you most want to see, then leave time to explore its setting. Check the venue’s current opening and reservation arrangements directly; a place appearing on the map does not mean every building or gallery is accessible on your travel date.
