Shaxi Essentials
Shaxi stands as the last remaining market town on the ancient Tea Horse Road, a historic trade route connecting Yunnan with Tibet. Centered around Sideng Square, the town preserves Ming and Qing dynasty architecture, including the intricate Xingjiao Temple and the multi-story Old Stage. Beyond the town gates, the 18th-century Yujin Bridge crosses the Heihui River, leading toward the Shibao Mountains. This nearby range houses the Shizhongshan Grottoes, featuring 9th-century rock carvings that provide rare insight into the Nanzhao and Dali Kingdoms.
