▾
  • Take a flight/high-speed rail to Mount Huangshan, Anhui, and start a happy journey; After arrival, our company will arrange a special car to take you to the hotel for rest and free activities in the evening.
  • Recommendation 1: [Tunxi Old Street]: The old street is composed of more than 300 Huizhou style buildings from different eras. Because Tunxi Old Street is located at the confluence of the Hengjiang River, the Shuishui River, and the Xin'an River, it is also known as the "active Qingming Riverside Scene". It is the most well preserved and Ming Qing style ancient street market in China, and it is important to understand the rise and inheritance of Huizhou culture. Here, you can appreciate the charm of ancient towns in Jiangnan and feel the essence of Huizhou architecture. You can also stop and rest in taverns and tea houses, or stroll around the ancient streets.
  • Recommendation 2: [Liyang IN Lane]: Separated by a bridge from Tunxi Old Street, it is a perfect fusion of ancient Huizhou architecture and modern architecture. Walking in the quaint alleys of Liyang, the ancient atmosphere that has been accumulated for thousands of years is overwhelming. Ancient buildings, streets, and docks are all ancient and charming; Ancient carvings, murals, and paintings are all lifelike, as if time is frozen here.

Among the four treasures of the study, Huizhou ink and Sheyan are produced here, known as the "Capital of Huizhou Ink" and "Hometown of Sheyan" in China. It is known as one of the "four best preserved ancient cities in China" along with Langzhong in Sichuan, Lijiang in Yunnan, and Pingyao in Shanxi.

Every brick and tile is filled with stories, and every blade of grass and tree exudes its charm; Let us explore the footsteps of Huizhou merchants by following the beautiful poetry of ancient people, 'Lost in the abyss of one's life, without dreaming of Huizhou.'.
  • After lunch, head to Wuyuan and visit the "ancient village hanging on the cliff" - Huangling: In ancient times, it was named after the abundant production of "Huangzhu" on the mountain; Coming here, you can experience a very rich autumn sun culture. This unique folk custom is also known as the 'most beautiful Chinese symbol'. Here, bamboo shoots are sun dried in spring, mountain treasures are sun dried in summer, fruits and vegetables are sun dried in autumn, and local customs are sun dried in winter, hence it is also known as "Four Seasons Sun Autumn"; When we take the cableway to the top of the mountain, stand on Huangling Tianjie, gaze far into the distance, appreciate the clouds and mist swirling in the mountains, and experience: half is a fairyland, half is a human world;
