Heshun Ancient Town: Sony A6700 Film Style

Introduction

On a sunny September afternoon, I visited Heshun Ancient Town in Tengchong, Yunnan, with my Sony A6700 camera set to 'FL (film)' style. Stepping through The entry and under the Renli archway, I began exploring the vast town.

I passed the pavilion and several archways, including the kite flies and the fish leaps archway, before reaching the notable Heshun library. The architecture was beautiful, from the library's facade (a corner of the old building) to the intricate traditional roof design.

The town life was peaceful. I photographed a resting grandpa, vibrant flower pots on the roof, and stores in the ancient town where home brew whiskey was sold. Details like the Xingren Songrang plaque and the bamboo added to the ambiance.

Animals were as calm as the setting: a cute dog walking, a black dog resting on a chair, and a sleeping cat watched by a cat lover. Heshun was a perfect blend of ancient grandeur and simple, sun-drenched tranquility.
