Stroll Around the Night Market of Anchang Ancient Town, looking for the Distinctive Flavor

I felt slightly drunken with the gentle breeze and the bright moon.

As night fell, the ancient town got quiet and the life in the water town became what it was. Wandering in the Sanli Street at night, all I find were the daily routines such as the old man sitting on the bamboo chair smoking, the old woman sitting on the stone bench shaking the fan, and the rippling waves shattered by the paddle...

The beauty of the ancient town varies from season to season and from day to night. The ancient townseems to be interpreting itsunique beauty at different time. It is noisy with the crowds in the daytime, but totally different at night. The silence of the town gets people intoxicated.

The thousand-year-old town is built by water and dependent on water. It has been well prepared to welcome its visitors. The slab stones, the bridges, the eavesand the corridors have all been colored by the neon lights. The simple and solemn eaves of the houses are decorated by the blazing lanterns.The streetis ablaze with lights throughout the night. The ancient town shines like a legendary luminous pearl.

The night market originated from the Northern Song Dynasty. At that time, when night fell, the town was full of noise, bursting with the business atmosphere and the secular culture. Even if thousands of years have passed, the night market is still an indelible existence.
