The nostalgic Yunshuiyao Old Town, or Yún shǔi yáo gu zhen and known as The Knot Town, gained recognition due to the popular Chinese film Yún shǔi yáo, which was honored as the Best Film at the 2007 Golden Rooster Awards. Yún shǔi yáo, translated as ‘The Song of the Clouds and Waters’, tells a romantic story set in 1960s China.
