Hongcun Village is a classic Huizhou-style ancient village, renowned as a "village in a Chinese painting." A visit here offers two unmissable experiences: first, the water landscapes shaped by its irrigation system, with Nanhu Lake and Yuezhao Pond as the crown jewels; second, the exquisite "three carvings" of Huizhou architecture—brick, stone, and wood carvings—intricate enough to rival paper-cut art. Here, cultural heritage and natural beauty blend seamlessly into a harmonious whole. The ancient village was first built during the Shaoxing era of the Southern Song dynasty and gradually developed from the Yongle era of the Ming dynasty into a unique "ox-shaped village" layout. The two ancient trees at the village entrance form the "ox horns," the densely packed Ming and Qing Huizhou-style buildings in the village form the "ox body," the four bridges over the stream west of the village form the "ox feet," Yuezhao Pond is the "ox stomach," Nanhu Lake is the "ox belly," and the water channels flowing past every household are the "ox intestines." Sightseeing can begin at Nanhu Lake in the south of the village. Nanhu Lake is a bow-shaped artificial lake dug during the Wanli era of the Ming dynasty, with a broad expanse of water; the Huabridge crossing the lake is where Li Mubai led his horse in the film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. On the north bank of the lake, Nanhu Academy was formed by merging six original private schools by the lakeside, and its layout is exceptionally spacious. Heading north along the lake's north bank, visitors can also stop by ancient residences such as Jingde Hall and Wang Daxie's Former Residence (Zhenqi Hall). Continuing north leads to Yuezhao Pond at the village center, a half-moon-shaped pond dug during the Yongle era of the Ming dynasty, surrounded by Huizhou-style buildings reflected in its waters—one of the best spots for photography in the ancient village. However, visitors crowd around Yuezhao Pond year-round, so patience is needed to capture an empty shot. At the center of Yuezhao Pond's north bank stands Lexu Hall, also known as the Wang Clan Ancestral Hall, a surviving Ming dynasty building in the village with a simpler style than Qing dynasty architecture. On the western end of Yuezhao Pond's north side is Jingxiu Hall, built during the Qing dynasty. Further north, visitors can tour Chengzhi Hall, the residence of late Qing salt merchant Wang Dinggui. The residence is fully equipped with a study, kitchen, stable, bodyguard room, and servants' quarters, and even includes a "Paishan Pavilion" for playing mahjong; the house has its own pond and well, so water is available without leaving the premises. The exquisite Huizhou three carvings are worth examining closely—some wood carvings are even coated with gold powder, lavish and magnificent. Other ancient buildings in the village worth seeing include Deyi Hall, Shuren Hall, and Taoyuan Residence.

Xidi

7.7

4.6/5

12.2k reviews

Xidi is a typical Huizhou-style ancient village in Yi County, and together with Hongcun it is known as one of the two great ancient villages of southern Anhui. If Hongcun is known for its waterscape, Xidi focuses more on the architecture itself—the village preserves a well-laid-out complex of Ming and Qing dynasty buildings, with exquisite craftsmanship in the "three Huizhou-style carvings" of brick, stone, and wood. The patterns and branches are so finely detailed that they are a highlight worth savoring throughout the ancient village. Most residents of the village share the last name Hu. Legend has it that they are descendants of Li Ye, Emperor Zhaozong of Tang, who changed their surname to Hu to escape the chaos of war and have lived here for generations ever since. The ancient village was first built during the Huangyou era of the Northern Song dynasty. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, as Huizhou merchants rose to prominence, extensive construction took place, and a large number of Hu merchants returned home to build residences, once giving Xidi hundreds of courtyard houses. The ancient village was laid out in the shape of a boat, spanning three streams. In the south, the Qianbian Stream and Houbian Stream converge at Huiyuan Bridge inside the village to form the Xi Stream, which then joins the Shewu Stream to the north at the village entrance. All the streams flow from east to west, and this is how Xidi, meaning "westward flow," got its name. The main entrance is in the southwest corner, and the first thing that meets the eye is the Hu Wenguang Memorial Archway, built in the sixth year of the Wanli reign of the Ming Dynasty. It is entirely carved and built from local "Yi County bluestone" marble, with five tiers of stone carvings stacked layer upon layer, grand and imposing. Beside the archway, the broad surface of Mingjing Lake is a good spot for photographing the reflections of Hui-style buildings. Entering the village, Ruiyu Ting at the Henglu Street intersection is a typical Huizhou merchant residence. The couplets in the hall are quite meaningful, such as "Happiness is earned through hard work; good bargains often come from being willing to take a loss," which discusses business principles and also contains a philosophy of life. Heading east along the Front Stream, Jing'ai Hall is one of the larger surviving ancestral halls in the village. The "filial piety" character hanging in the center is ingeniously designed—the right half resembles a person bowing with hands clasped, while the left half resembles a monkey, meaning that only those who observe filial piety are truly human, and those who are unfilial are like macaques. Shangde Hall upstream is one of the oldest surviving Ming Dynasty buildings in the village. In addition, Taoli Yuan, which pairs a residence with a study hall; the Hui-style courtyards West Garden and East Garden; Dunren Hall, the late-life residence of the Qing Dynasty Huizhou merchant Hu Guansan; as well as Zouma Lou, Xiulou, and Zhuimu Hall, each have their own features and are worth visiting one by one. Art academy students often come here to sketch, and the young people setting up easels among the white walls and black tiles have also become a scene of the ancient village.

Qiyun Mountain

7.6

4.7/5

7.4k reviews

Qiyun Mountain has been active since the Tang Dynasty, and some spectacular cliff carvings can be seen on the mountain. The Danxia landform has brought a rounded red mountain to Qiyun Mountain, which is in sharp contrast with the verdant vegetation on the mountain. Qiyun Mountain is 33 kilometers west of Huangshan City, with an altitude of 585 meters. The mountain is not high, but it is relatively large. It is divided into four areas: Yuehua Street Attraction, Loushanglou Attraction, Yunyan Lake Attraction, and Hengjiang Attraction. If you think it is "just a small mountain", you have only visited the Yuehua Street Attraction, which is the essence of the front mountain, and this is the content of a one-day tour; for a two-day tour, you can first visit the Yuehua Street Attraction, and on the second day you can go to the Loushanglou Attraction on the back mountain; as for the Yunyan Lake Attraction, it is too far away and generally no tourists go there. The hiking trail of Qiyun Mountain is at Dengfeng Bridge, 600 meters away from the lower station of the cable car. When taking a bus to Qiyun Mountain, you must tell the driver where you want to get off. It takes about an hour to walk up the mountain to reach the upper station of the cable car. It is recommended to take the cable car when going up the mountain, so that you can enjoy the rural scenery below the mountain. When you get out of the upper station of the cable car to Feiyun Pavilion, remember to look back at the mountain below. The best time to visit Qiyun Mountain is when the rape-flowers bloom in April. The golden flower fields and the Hui-style villages with white walls and black tiles are like a Chinese painting. The main attraction in the front mountain is the cliff carvings, with the Zhenxian Cave House being the most spectacular. There are caves all over the cliffs, with the four characters "天开神秀" written on the top. In the caves, there are various gods and immortals. From the top of the cliff, there is a pearl spring dripping into the clear pool below the cliff. Then walk to Yuehua Street. At the end of the street, through the doorway is a gourd-shaped stone archway "Xiao Hutian", and you will reach a cave. If you look carefully at the top of the cave, you will see footprints left by dinosaurs in ancient times. It takes about half an hour to climb from Yuehua Street to the peak of Qiyun Mountain. Most tourists return to Yuehua Street. If you want to go to the back mountain, you can stay in Yuehua Street for one night, otherwise you will not have enough time. Yuehua Street is a village on the mountainside with limited reception capacity. Although there are not many tourists staying in the mountain, it is better to make reservations in advance. There are also old houses in hotels with better conditions, such as the century-old Changsheng Building. The accommodation conditions are average, but you can see the sea of clouds in front of the building. Walking from the front mountain to Yuehua Street, there is Xianglu Peak on the right hand side. It is the representative of all the peaks of Qiyun Mountain because of its exquisite shape. There is a pavilion on the top of the peak. There is a road leading to the top of the peak from Zhenxian Cave Mansion, but the road is not easy to walk. It is recommended to put the luggage at the accommodation on Yuehua Street and then go back to the mountain climbing place. If you don't know where to climb, you can ask the hotel owner or villagers in detail. Don't climb on rainy days because the road is slippery. The next day, we went upstairs in the back mountain. There were no supply stations along the way, so we had to prepare enough water and dry food. After watching the sunrise on the peak in the morning, we returned to Yuehua Street and headed towards Yuxu Palace. There was a fork in the road leading to Fangla Village. If you have good stamina and can run fast, you can go and take a look. Otherwise, it is recommended to go straight upstairs. We walked in the mountains and could no longer see the scenery below the mountain. There were very few people along the way, and it felt like "the whole mountain is yours." On the way, you will pass the downhill road leading to the bamboo raft dock. If there is a mountain guard on duty at the pavilion at the intersection, you can leave your luggage there and pick it up when you come back from here. Going forward, you will encounter another fork in the road. The right side leads to the reservoir, and the left side with the covered bridge is the correct road. When you reach the upper floor, you can see the naturally formed upper and lower layers of caves. Backpackers will set up tents here. The terrain is flat and can shelter from wind and rain. Go down the mountain from the road leading to the bamboo raft pier, and take a bamboo raft to drift all the way to Dengfeng Bridge. Dengfeng Bridge is a stone bridge built during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. On the other side is a Hui-style village. When the rape-flowers bloom, the scenery in this area is no less beautiful than those popular rape-flower viewing spots in Anhui and Wuyuan. When the golden sun sets and the night falls, the town of Qiyun is brightly lit and bustling. Qiyun iron flowers bloom in the sky, bringing romance; fish lanterns parade in the streets with the blessings of Huizhou for 600 years; standing on the Dengfeng Bridge, you can also see the 100-meter golden dragon winding forward with fireworks all over the sky. As a new landmark for Huangshan night tours, Qiyun Mountain Resort has created the [Baiyue Night Carefree] special night tour IP, introducing a number of intangible cultural heritage interpretations, and highly presenting the thousand-year folk romance through the inheritance and innovation of intangible cultural heritage skills, helping the development of Huangshan's night tour economy, promoting the continuous renewal of Huangshan's night tour forms, and bringing tourists a beautiful holiday life with fireworks and nights.

The huge perspective in the town is the wood cutting structures worked by the well off specialist Lu Bangxie(Lu million) for six spouses in the Qing Dynasty. It takes 20 years to manufacture a to a great degree perfect wood cutting. Cut into, Huang Mei show "Huizhou lady", TV series "walk into the blue waterway" have been shot here. Lu Village, otherwise called Lushan Village and Lucun Woodcarving Building, was built up in the Tang Dynasty. It is situated in the northwest of Hongcun. It is where a few guests to Hongcun will visit, yet Lucun visitors are far not as much as Hongcun. Especially appropriate for picture takers and adventurers.

Tachuan is an ancient Hui-style village in Hongcun Town, Yi County, also known as Tashang. It is named because the ancient dwellings are built along the mountain in overlapping layers resembling a pagoda, and a stream flows through the village. The village lies between Hongcun and Mukeng Bamboo Sea, backed by the southwestern extension of Mount Huangshan, with white-walled, black-tiled houses scattered among the mountains and fields. Tachuan is famous for the Chinese tallow tree fall colors in late fall, and together with Fragrant Hills in Beijing, Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan, and Kanas in Xinjiang, it is known as one of China's top four fall color viewing destinations. Chinese tallow trees are widely planted at the village entrance and around the village. After fall arrives, the leaves turn from green to yellow and then gradually to red, and a single tree often displays mottled colors such as emerald green, pale yellow, and orange-red at the same time. The brilliant crowns of trees across the mountains, together with the white-walled, black-tiled houses at the foot of the mountain and the golden rice fields, form a picture, and when morning cooking smoke rises, it is especially like a natural oil painting. Fall colors begin to appear in mid-to-late October each year, and in early-to-mid November the color layers are rich, making it the golden period for viewing fall colors. At the village entrance stand several ancient camphor, Chinese torreya, and maple trees that have survived for hundreds of years, known as the "five towering trees," and they are the landmark view for entering the village. The village preserves a group of ancient buildings from the Ming and Qing dynasties, built against the mountain and near the water, with streams winding around the fronts and backs of the houses; the layout of "streams winding around the front houses" is uniquely distinctive. Along the rural road outside the village are several viewing platforms where visitors can look out over Tachuan and the surrounding villages in panorama; early morning and dusk are ideal times for photographing fall colors and pastoral scenery.

Moon Pond

Moon Pond is the "ox stomach" ofHongcun, excavated during the Yongle era of the Ming Dynasty and located in the very center of the ancient village. Back then, villagers dug "ox intestine" water channels to guide stream water through lanes and into households, converging into this pond at the heart of the village. It was intentionally dug into a half-moon shape, reflecting the philosophy that "when the moon is full, it begins to wane." It is not merely a pond for viewing, but an important part of the ancient water system of Hongcun, which, together with the water channels and South Lake within the village, forms the artificial water system of this traditional village. Today, the water surface remains calm, with the white walls, black tiles, and horse-head gables of the surrounding Hui-style residences reflected in rows on the water, creating the iconic image of Hongcun.

Pingshan Village in Yi County is located near mountains and rivers, and the houses in the village are built along the banks of the stream. In order to facilitate the travel of residents on both sides, eight stone arch bridges were built on the stream during the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, commonly known as the "Eight Ancient Bridges of Changning". The houses built along the stream, the quaint stone bridges, and the gurgling stream under the bridges constitute the typical rural charm of "small bridges, flowing water, and people". Pingshan Village is also called Shu Village because it is a village where the Shu family lives together. There are small streets along the stream, mostly small shops with shops in front and workshops in the back, or houses in front and shops in the back. There are seven ancestral halls preserved in the village, including Guangyu Hall and Chengdao Hall. Among them, Shuqingyu Hall is a very rare clan ancestral hall of the Ming Dynasty in southern Anhui, China. In addition, there are more than 200 Ming and Qing Dynasty houses, including the Sangu Temple where "three girls ate peaches and turned into carps to become immortals", Changning Lake where "sunken in the lake to die for love and turned into mandarin ducks", the imperial guards' wall-mounted memorial archway, Shu Xiuwen's former residence, Magnolia Courtyard, Gourd Well, Small Embroidery Building and other scenic spots and historical sites. Jiudu Shu Village has scenery in all seasons. In spring breeze and drizzle, peach blossoms rise in water; in summer, willows hang down to cool off; in autumn nights, the moon is admired and the bridge is reflected in the water; in winter, bamboo shoots sprout in the snow.
