The Former Residence of Shen Congwen 沈从文故居
Read a short passage from Shen Congwen before visiting his former residence, then use the courtyard and family story to connect the famous river town with a real literary life. The house is a focused indoor cultural stop, especially useful when the riverside has become crowded or wet. Keep the author’s world distinct from the modern nightlife outside. Continue with a short lane walk rather than trying to collect every heritage building on a package ticket.
