Wuyuan is located at the junction of Jiangxi and Anhui Provinces. The scenery here is extremely beautiful. In the springtime the mountains are abloom with wild yellow rapeseed.

Gray stone walls and white roof tiles are highly characteristic of the local traditional architecture. In combination with the simple local cuisine, many travelers are enticed to come here.

🎈You must visit Wuyuan in the fall.
🌈When I arrived in Wuyuan, it was like stepping into a dreamy fairy tale world. Wuyuan in the fall is a colorful painting. The distant mountains are dyed red by maple leaves, contrasting with the blue sky and white clouds. The rice in the fields is golden, and the breeze stirs up waves.
🌟What fascinated me the most was the unique autumn drying scene. Between the white walls and black tiles of the Huizhou-style buildings, colorful crops are dried on bamboo mats, red peppers, yellow corn, orange pumpkins... It's like a gorgeous and colorful folk painting. The villagers shuttle busily among them, their faces filled with the joy of a bumper harvest.
💖Walking on the ancient stone road, feeling the tranquility and beauty of autumn. The scent of tea wafts from the small shops on the street, making people stop and taste. Here, time seems to stand still, and everything is so leisurely.
🥰Wuyuan in the fall, without the hustle and bustle of the city, only the purest natural beauty and the smell of fireworks. If you also yearn to get away from the hustle and bustle of the world, then you must come to Wuyuan in the fall, experience this most beautiful season in person, and I believe you will be deeply attracted by it and linger.
I declare this ancient town to have the most intense Chinese romantic atmosphere
‼️ Forever in awe of Chinese romantic aesthetics
When intangible cultural heritage iron flower, golden pavilion, water curtain, and high tower come together in one scene, it feels like a dream back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
It turns out that Su Shi's 'I don't know in which year tonight's heavenly palace is' can truly appear before my eyes.

Wunvzhou is super suitable for photography both day and night.
⭐️ Six super photo spots during the day
❶ Before entering Wunvzhou, you must check in at the Bawang Tea Ji at the entrance, with the super cool 'Wuyuan' characters.
❷ Huishi Street Sauce Garden and small shops have a great atmosphere. Stand a bit farther and use 3x zoom, place the person on the dividing line, and let the eaves of the buildings on both sides form guiding lines.
❸ Find the Southern Tavern at the west end of the street, go through the interior, and you'll reach the popular internet-famous spot. Don't turn back until you hit the south wall.
❹ Check in at the Golden Pavilion at Caishen Wharf. Zoom in a bit, place the person and the building on the dividing lines, and you can easily get a good shot.
❺ This is the Wuyuan logo check-in wall.
❻ On the way to Caishen Wharf, life advice: don't randomly listen to others' advice about the logo wall.
·
⭐️ Night shooting spots
Under the prosperous fireworks, with fire trees and silver flowers, and the sound of paddles and lanterns. The shooting spots are all around the Golden Pavilion, the best being near Caishen Wharf. Choose a place with fewer people and stand by the lake to shoot.
The Golden Pavilion water curtain starts as early as 6:30. For some scenes, you can arrive early to grab a spot! (No one on the internet mentions this time; I specifically called the scenic area to ask.)
Rated by National Geographic as the most beautiful village in China, how amazing is it?
🌾To see the place of autumn drying in the books, I came to this ancient village on the cliff.
Compared to the bustling city, I prefer such a picturesque ancient village.
The Hui-style architecture with black walls and tiles, the colorful folk activities, and Huangling is also known as one of the 'Top Ten Most Beautiful Terraces in the World'.

🏕Originally, the villagers of Huangling lived a hard life💦
Since Huangling became a tourist spot, every household has started a homestay.
While tourists experience the natural wildness, the villagers' lives have also improved, I think this is the meaning of travel.
I wish you a pleasant holiday.
Wow, this year I visited the most stunning place ever
It's extremely romantic and absolutely amazing✨. I've been to many cities, but rarely have I been as amazed as I was by Wunüzhou. It's quiet during the day, but when the lights come on at night, it instantly transforms into a 'heavenly palace,' which truly left me in awe for a long time✨.
If you can only visit one place in Jiangxi, I highly recommend you go to Wunüzhou!
🚄How to get to Wunüzhou:
Take the high-speed train to Wuyuan Station, then a 15-minute taxi ride to Wunüzhou; or take the 520 bus line from the high-speed train station, which goes directly to the scenic area.
🎆Must-see performances in Wunüzhou:
1⃣ Intangible Cultural Heritage Iron Flower Show
📍Location: Baoyu Tower
⏱️Showtimes: Daily at 19:20 and 21:15, approximately 5 minutes
A must-see five-star recommendation❗️ The master craftsman creates iron flowers on a boat, with sparks flying at over a thousand degrees Celsius, accompanied by the flowing water of the Golden Pavilion. It's like the poet's description of 'a boat full of dreams pressing down the Milky Way.'
2⃣ Intangible Cultural Heritage Fire Pot Show
📍Location: Baoyu Tower
⏱️Showtimes: Daily at 19:30, 20:30, and 21:40, approximately 6 minutes
This is the most impressive performance I've seen this year. Fire knives, fire sticks, and fire pots🔥 appear one after another, like a guardian reborn from the flames in the darkness. It's worth coming just for this performance.
3⃣ Fireworks Feast
📍Location: Wuxian Golden Pavilion
⏱️Showtimes: Every Friday and Saturday at 21:40, approximately 3 minutes
If you come on a Friday or Saturday, you must not miss this beautiful fireworks show🎇. It's like a dream.
4⃣ Dragon Lantern Parade
📍Location: Huishi Street
⏱️Showtimes: Every Friday and Saturday at 19:30, approximately 15 minutes
A super lively and beautiful dragon lantern🐉 parade that goes from Huishi Street to Baoyu Tower. It's very interesting.
💡💡Travel Tips:
🟡 Get a program schedule after entering the park. There are many programs from afternoon to evening, with clear times and locations, so you can plan your viewing order in advance.
🟡 Be sure to get a good spot in advance for the Iron Flower Show and the Intangible Cultural Heritage Fire Pot Show❗️ This way, you can capture beautiful pictures.
🟡 As for food, there is a snack street in the scenic area with a variety of local delicacies and snacks. There are many choices, and the prices are not expensive😋.
🟡 It's recommended to stay one night in a hotel within the scenic area to get free admission. I stayed at the Tea Sage Hotel this time, which was comfortable and convenient, and I could take the free shuttle bus to various points in the scenic area.
The aftertaste lingers long after leaving. The Iron Flower Show and the Intangible Cultural Heritage Fire Pot Show in Wunüzhou are performances that make me want to visit again. This is probably the meaning of travel.

Wuyuan has been so vibrant this spring, with several places to enjoy
In the journey to find the answer to spring, I was led to Wuyuan, this earthly paradise. Stepping onto this land, I felt as if I had entered a classical poem, where every step was on a poetic scroll.
🌼 Wuyuan, a place painted by the poetry of spring:
• Stunning rapeseed flowers: The mountains and fields of gold are Wuyuan's gift to spring, each rapeseed flower tells a story of vitality.
• Scenery by the ancient temples: Next to Pudu Temple, the magnolias and peach blossoms under the red walls and green tiles create moving scenes that enchant the heart.
📚 Places in Wuyuan you can't miss in spring:
1. Chaguan Village: A bridge, a cow, an old man, every spot here is a witness to history.
2. Huangling: Not just a paradise for sun-drying in autumn, the integration of spring's rapeseed flower sea with Hui-style architecture is like stepping into a cover-like fairyland.
3. Jiangling: Half fireworks, half fairyland, from the viewing platform, the villages in the sea of rapeseed flowers seem like the most beautiful painting.
4. Yantian: Take a small train through the sea of rapeseed flowers for a different spring journey.
🌄 Wuyuan Spring Travel Guide:
