The ancient banyan trees in Rongfeng Park are numerous, magnificent, and peculiar, with their branches densely spread. Among them, the largest one is a small-leaved red-skinned banyan tree, 29 meters tall and with a crown diameter of 51 meters, occupying an area of 3.06 acres. The trunk is elliptical, with a major axis breast height diameter of 5.1 meters and a minor axis breast height diameter of 3.6 meters, with a circumference of 12.6 meters. Because the trunk of this banyan tree is hollow, there are 7 openings that can be connected. Another spectacular sight is the 250-acre pure maple forest, where the maple leaves turn red in winter, presenting a charming scenery that attracts many tourists.

Gaoqian ancient houses are surrounded by mountains and rivers, with white walls and gray tiles reflecting flowing water and green leaves. This understated village was built in the Yuan Dynasty, and most of the preserved buildings are from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are 11 ancient houses that have been fully preserved. The layout of these houses is courtyard style, which is rarely seen nowadays. With exquisite brick and wood carvings, stepping into them feels like traveling back to a quiet afternoon in the past. Most of the residents in the village are surnamed Wu, and they are mostly elderly people and children. Actually, there is no need to have a specific purpose. Just take a look at the old houses or savor the tranquility and leisure here is already enough.

Since it's called an old house, it's said to be almost 200 years old. Although simple, it feels very clean, and both the boss and waiters are very polite. The old house is facing Beijian Bridge, so the location should be the best in the surrounding area. I chose to sit outside and eat, and it feels good. I highly recommend the old house's chicken pot, which has a slightly medicinal and wolfberry flavor, very delicious, and the meat is tender and chewy. One pot of chicken and two dishes were completely finished, and only ordered the Jiuceng Gao, which is made with local grass root and rice paste. It has a unique fragrance and a bit of an acquired taste, so I didn't finish it.
