About Guangfu Ancient City
Inside and beside those walls, courtyard houses connect the town with the development of Yang- and Wu-style taijiquan. The former homes of Yang Luchan and Wu Yuxiang give a more specific focus than simply wandering a reconstructed commercial street. A compact visit can link the southern gate area with these houses while keeping the surrounding marsh landscape in view.
What to look for
- The town walls, gate approaches and surviving barbican layout against the surrounding wetland setting.
- Yang Luchan's former home near the south gate and Wu Yuxiang's former home on Yingchun Street.

Getting to Guangfu Ancient City
