Avoid standing on the bridge as it will be cleared. - After shooting at the first bridge, head clockwise to the second bridge (P5️⃣+9️⃣). - For the final fireworks, use the lanterns at Sunning Square as foreground (P7️⃣). But we highly recommend joining the lantern parade for interactive fun! 📍 Chengkan Ancient Town, Huangshan, Anhui 🎫 107 RMB/person (enter before 17:00) 🚄 Take high-speed rail to Huangshan North Station, then drive/taxi to Chengkan (20 mins).
