Yixian County, Southern Anhui|Step into the Real-Life "A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains"! Escape Guide‌  ✨“A lifetime of obsession, no dream reaches Huizhou” This summer, I found the most fairy-tale escape spot in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai! Blue bricks, small tiles, horse-head walls, corridors with hanging lattice windows... The ancient villages of Yixian County in Southern Anhui are like landscape paintings forgotten by time, with bamboo forests, streams, starry skies... All the beautiful imaginations of summer come true here! · 🖼️Must-Visit Scenic Spots ‌1️⃣ Shouzhuo Garden · Geometric Aesthetics in Ink Painting‌ The "Returning to the Garden to Keep Clumsiness" described by Tao Yuanming is right here! Faint green mountains, rippling blue lakes, white walls and black tiles, small bridges and flowing water... Strolling through Shouzhuo Garden, every step reveals a new scene. Check in at the same round gate featured in "Joy of Life"! See the clear water reflecting a perfect concentric circle, as if stepping into a period drama, wearing Hanfu and posing for an ancient-style masterpiece. 2️⃣ ‌Nanping Scenic Area · The Living Huizhou Museum‌ A mysterious secluded ancient village with 8 ancestral halls and over 300 Ming and Qing dynasty ancient residences, known as the "Chinese Ancestral Hall Architecture Museum." A maze of 72 ancient alleys crisscrosses the village, where you might meet leisurely strolling cats around every corner. Backed by green mountains, with curling cooking smoke, fragrant fruits and vegetables in front and behind houses, watch dragonflies skim over rice fields, and listen to frogs croaking over lotus ponds. Enjoy a cup of Huangshan Maofeng tea in a century-old ancestral hall, climb to the rooftop of a Huizhou-style ancient residence, and wait for the sunset glow to dye the horse-head walls honey-colored. ‌3️⃣ Zizai Valley · Live in a Secluded Mountain Paradise The "Peach Blossom Spring" described by Tao Yuanming comes to life! Surrounded by mountains on three sides, with water nearby on one side. Mountain, water, and farmland, leisurely and free. A blend of Huizhou architecture and tulou, simple and elegant. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a rolling sea of bamboo🎋 The green waves hide the cicadas’ summer chorus. Living in the mountains and fields, the heart wanders with the clouds. Awakened by birdsong in the morning, fall asleep under the stars at night. 4️⃣ Xiuli Wansong Art Institute · A Vacation Style for Young People The charm of Southern Anhui in ink painting, meeting the gentlest summer. July winds sweep past horse-head walls, blue stone slabs reflect the broken tile sky. Vine shadows crawl over old brick carvings, a courtyard mottled with age, a lane full of laziness. Experience ancient plant dyeing in a century-old ancestral hall. Listen to a concert on the open lawn. At Wansong Art Institute, immerse yourself in the joy of intangible cultural heritage study tours. 5️⃣ Yixian Ancient City · Attend a Lantern City Rendezvous The treasure "City of a Thousand Lanterns" hidden in Yixian City! Here, Huizhou-style architecture stands densely, white walls and black tiles, full of rustic charm. The ancient city has many small alleys; strolling through them feels like traveling back in time. At night, the ancient city is brilliantly lit, with the sounds of bells and drums swaying the grand chapter of a prosperous era. ‌🏡Accommodation 📍Moss Homestay Close to Yixian Ancient City, facing it across a bridge. Lying in bed, you can see the beautiful ancient city through the window. The small courtyard in the middle is surrounded by greenery; drink coffee and daydream during the day, enjoy the river breeze quietly and leisurely at night. 🍛Food Recommended to try Huizhou delicacies such as stinky mandarin fish, Mao tofu, and small river shrimp. · This summer, come to Southern Anhui with your loved ones and live a few days in a painting~
