In terms of culture, the old town of Gaochun has a rich heritage, and it still retains the oldest Wu language and many old alleys in ancient towns with a thousand years of age. Among them, the “Gaochun Old Street” is the most well-preserved ancient street of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in East China, which has a history of more than 900 years and is the best-preserved ancient building complex in Jiangsu Province.
In recent years, under the influence of the international “Slow City Movement”, Gaochun advocates the steady development of tourism and leisure industries in the protection of regional characteristics, natural ecology and traditional culture.
