Daxi Yuemei to Longtan Sankeng Riverside Scenic Green Corridor Introduction
Have you tried the "One Day Twin Old Streets" experience? Starting from Dazhi Bridge and heading all the way to Longtan Sankeng, you can take in the incredibly relaxing riverside scenery, the historical charm of century-old monuments, rich original ecology, locally exclusive snacks, and the slow-paced lifestyle that has remained unchanged for decades, all in one go. No matter if you're a local or a visitor, you'll surely enjoy it! The Daxi Yuebai to Longtan Sankeng waterfront sightseeing green corridor stretches about 7,190 meters, connecting the Daxi Old Street Riverside Path, Yuebai Bicycle Path, Shimen Dazun Bicycle Path, and Sankeng Old Street Bicycle Path along the Dahan River. Passing through Heping Old Street towards Dazhi Bridge, you can admire the ornately decorated street houses and the bridge with its semi-circular dome, as the Baroque serenade unfolds. After crossing Dazhi Bridge, continue upstream to Kanjin Bridge, flanked by lush rice fields where a faint aroma of rice and leeks fills the air. If you visit between August and September, you can witness the leek flower sea in Fanzi Liao, with its romantic and delicate beauty comparable to the snow of Wisteria flowers in May! After the Erkan Rest Area, follow the Dahan River embankment to reach Sankeng Natural Ecology Park. Standing in the pavilion on the wooden walkway, you can quietly observe the emerald lake or stroll alongside the arch bridge and creek, effortlessly eliminating the fatigue accumulated from daily life, making your journey all the more meaningful. Walking along Yongfu Road for about 2 kilometers leads you to Sankeng Old Street, known as "the First Street of Longtan." The traditional lifestyle here remains clearly visible; at the entrance, women wash clothes while chatting about neighborhood matters; the second-class ancient monument Yongfu Temple has been the center of faith for residents for two hundred years; nearby is the Qingqian Mansion, once a wealthy family in the Qing dynasty, now returned to simplicity. From Sankeng Old Street, you can access the secondary Shimen Dazun Bicycle Path, where highlights such as Sankeng Spring Water, Butterfly Flower Corridor, Coffee Forest Path, and Wisteria Flower Viewing Path add surprises to your journey.
