点评:Tengchong’s Heshun Ancient Town and Ginkgo Village together show two extremes of the region — one rich in human history, the other dazzling with nature. Heshun tells the story of a small, historic overseas Chinese community, while Ginkgo Village is a golden fairyland when leaves turn.
Ginkgo Village: A “Non-Peak Season” Experience
I visited in October, before the ginkgo leaves had turned golden. Surprisingly, it was a completely different experience from peak season: no crowds, no traffic jams, no golden carpets on the ground—just quiet stone-paved streets, lush green ancient trees, and a sense of calm that makes you want to stay.
Highlights of October at Ginkgo Village:
Drive slowly through the village: Renting a small car was perfect — so few people and cars, I could stop wherever I wanted. In peak season, this would be impossible.
Lunch under century-old trees: Found a spacious farm stay and sat under huge ginkgo trees. Ordered ginkgo chicken stew and local dishes. The leaves were still green, but the relaxed atmosphere was much better than crowded peak times.
Overnight stay: Many guesthouses in the village, easy to book in October. At night, the village was peaceful with insects chirping, and birds woke me up in the morning — an experience that feels like a luxury in high season.
Photography: Freedom to take photos without fighting for space. Even without golden leaves, the green ginkgo trees, blue-tiled roofs, and white walls make a fresh and beautiful scene.
Heshun Ancient Town
Entry fee: 55 RMB/person (valid 3–7 days, multiple entries allowed)
Boat rides: Paid separately
Why it’s special: Unlike Dali or Lijiang, Heshun is a living town, not just for tourists. You can feel the rhythm of local life.
Dining: Try a private old-house restaurant for a slow, authentic meal.
Stay: Highly recommend 1–2 nights to soak in the atmosphere.
翻译:腾冲的和顺古镇和银杏村展现了该地区的两大特色——一处是人文历史的宝库,另一处则是自然风光的璀璨明珠。和顺讲述着一个历史悠久的华侨社区的故事,而银杏村则在秋叶变黄时宛如一片金色的仙境。
银杏村:淡季体验
我十月份去的,那时银杏叶还没变黄。出乎意料的是,这与旺季截然不同:没有拥挤的人群,没有交通堵塞,也没有铺满金黄色树叶的地面——只有静谧的石板路、郁郁葱葱的古树,以及令人流连忘返的宁静。
十月银杏村的亮点:
悠闲地驾车游览村庄:租一辆小车真是太合适了——人车稀少,我可以随心所欲地停车。旺季的时候,这几乎是不可能的。
在百年古树下享用午餐:我找到了一家宽敞的农家乐,坐在参天银杏树下用餐。点了银杏鸡汤和当地特色菜。树叶依然翠绿,但轻松惬意的氛围远胜于旅游旺季的拥挤人潮。
住宿:村里有很多民宿,十月份很容易预订。夜晚,村庄宁静祥和,只有虫鸣声;清晨,鸟儿的鸣叫声将我唤醒——在旅游旺季,这简直是一种奢侈的体验。
摄影:可以自由自在地拍照,不用争抢位置。即使没有金黄的树叶,翠绿的银杏树、蓝色的瓦顶和白色的墙壁也构成了一幅清新美丽的画面。
