Hongcun Village in Huangshan, Anhui | One of the must-visit attractions in Huangshan

Rated by 'National Geographic' as the most beautiful ancient village in Southern Anhui, how extraordinary it is‼️|||"A place of sheer devotion in life, without dreams of Huizhou." If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city, why not take a walk in Huizhou? The tranquility of Hongcun in Anhui is like the calm water of Nan Lake, like a landscape painting shrouded in morning mist, like the poetic everyday life of people. This is the true Jiangnan in my heart! - 🌟Recommended Route Scenic entrance - Nan Lake - Nan Lake Academy - Jingde Hall - Yuezhao - Lexu Hall - Jingxiu Hall - Chengzhi Hall - Shuren Hall - Taoyuan Residence - Ancient Red and White Trees - 🚗How to get to Hongcun 1️⃣Self-driving is more convenient for those around Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai. 2️⃣After taking the high-speed train to Yi County station, you can take a taxi or there are buses available. - 🍃Best season to visit Hongcun 🌸Spring and summer seasons have the typical misty rain feeling of Jiangnan, and in March-April, the rapeseed flowers in Hongcun also bloom, adding a touch of color to the ancient town. 🍂In autumn, the leaves turn yellow and fall, and there are relatively fewer tourists. ❄️After the snow in winter, Hongcun is shrouded in rain and mist, which is quite different from the spring and summer seasons. - 🌈What to do in Hongcun ✅Visit Nan Lake Academy to experience the elegance and wisdom of ancient Huizhou culture. ✅Find a teahouse in the village and taste the local Huangshan Maofeng tea. ✅Stroll around Chengzhi Hall, known as the 'Folk Forbidden City'. ✅Watch the famous local live stage drama 'Hongcun A'jū'. ✅Taste various Huizhou delicacies in Hongcun. - 📷How to take photos in Hongcun ‼️Good photo spots are at Nan Lake and Yuezhao ▪️Nan Lake is the classic panoramic spot for shooting Hongcun, with mist rising on rainy days, giving the feeling of a Jiangnan landscape painting. ▪️The small bridge over Nan Lake is where Li Mubai led his horse in the movie 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon', and that bridge has since become a favorite spot for many who come to Hongcun to sketch. ▪️Yuezhao is famous for its half-moon-shaped lake, known as the 'Sky Mirror' in the ancient village. - 🍜What to eat in Hongcun ▪️You must try the local specialty, stinky mandarin fish, which smells bad but tastes delicious. ▪️Be sure to taste the famous local stinky tofu. ▪️Huangshan baked cakes, dried vegetable and bacon baked cakes, osmanthus rice wine, etc. - 🏨Where to stay in Hongcun ▪️Stay in a homestay outside the scenic area: close to the scenic area, more convenient, and cheaper. ▪️Stay in a homestay inside the scenic area: exempt from Hongcun entrance fee, and you can also experience living in a hundred-year-old Huizhou building, with Hongcun in the morning mist like a fairyland on earth. - ⛰️What's nearby Hongcun Chengkan, Bishan Bookstore, Tunxi Old Street, Xidi, Tachuan, and others are nearby and can be visited together
