    Start · Entrance
  2. Stone Archways
    about 40 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
  3. Zhaogong Temple
    about 280 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    Visit the Zhao Gong Ancestral Hall (honoring Ming dynasty military strategist Zhao Yijiong), then climb the ancient town wall: walking along it offers panoramic views of the old town and surrounding hills and water; the wall winds along and the watchtowers remain. About 40 minutes. Why this route: Climbing the wall is the best way to see the layout of Qingyan Ancient Town; from the gate tower, the 600-year-old town unfolds below.
  4. City Wall
    about 310 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
  5. Catholic Church
    about 280 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    Visit the Chinese-Western Catholic Church (a blend of Gothic architecture and Guizhou folk dwellings), then wander the alleys to taste Qingyan specialties like braised pig's trotters, gaoba porridge, and rose candy. About 1 hour. Why this route: The church shows the town's cultural diversity, while the snacks are Qingyan's most down-to-earth experience.
