About Songyang County

In Xiping’s Ming-Qing old street, workshops for ironworking, scale-making and cotton work sit among homes and shops, while the Confucian and City God temples provide larger communal landmarks. The former post office shows another layer of the town’s public life. Begin with this concentrated old-town circuit; mountain villages such as Yangjiatang and Chenjiapu need separately planned road journeys.

What to look for

  • Traditional workshops preserve the old street’s relationship between commerce and everyday craft.
  • The Confucian and City God temples provide substantial landmarks within the street network.
