Qibao Ancient Town
From a fertile ground for missionary work during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty to its rebirth after experiencing the ravages of war; from the exotic charm of Gothic architecture to the local integration of stone lions and Shanghai-style elements, Qibao Catholic Church is just like a three-dimensional history book, telling the touching stories of religious dissemination, cultural blending and the changes of the times. It is not only a sacred hall where believers place their spiritual sustenance, but also a witness to the collision and coexistence of Eastern and Western cultures. In the long river of time, it continues to exude its unique charm, attracting people to explore the historical and cultural codes behind it.
