Autumn Season Don't waste the good time Decided to take the Sichuan-Tibet line in southern Anhui I also made some decisions. Open map Zoom in You can see the layers of hairpin bends It is worthy of being called Jiangnan Tianlu . 🚗Route Day 1 Self-drive in Hangzhou for 2.5 hours—Xuancheng (lunch)—West entrance of Sichuan-Tibet Highway in Southern Anhui—Moon Bay—Shuimo Tingxi—Taoling Liudao Bay—Hotel Day 2 Depart at 6:30 — Fallen Redwood Forest — Qinglong Bay — Moon Bay — Ningguo East Exit — Drive 2 hours to Hangzhou Why choose to enter from the west and exit from the east? Because the redwood forest is filled with morning mist in the early morning of November, you must get up early to see it. If you choose the west entrance, you can rest for a night at the Halfway Hotel and set out to the redwood forest early the next morning. . 🏠Live We arrived at the hotel at around 2:00 p.m. and finally decided on this one after careful selection. The room was very spacious, with a whole wall of floor-to-ceiling windows, which cured the fatigue of half a day's running around. The temperature in the mountains had started to drop by then, so we arrived at the restaurant in time for afternoon tea. The sunshine at four o'clock is beautiful, shining warmly in the backyard. I moved a chair and quietly enjoyed the leisure of the weekend. You can take a short walk in the nearby mountains. It gets dark around 5 o'clock. The hotel has a restaurant, which is a good place to experience the characteristics of Huizhou. . 🧾Itinerary Starting from downtown Hangzhou, it takes about three hours to reach the western entrance of the Southern Anhui Sichuan-Tibet Highway (you can navigate directly). It is recommended to have lunch before entering the mountains. Next, we will officially start our self-driving journey on the winding mountain road, passing Taoling Liudaowan along the way. Get up at six o'clock the next day and drive for about an hour to reach the Fallen Redwood Forest Scenic Area. The parking spaces in the scenic area are limited. It is strongly recommended to arrive before 8 o'clock in the morning, or stay in a homestay near the gate of the scenic area the night before. There is an outdoor viewing platform about 100 meters west of the Redwood Forest Scenic Area, which is an ideal drone shooting spot. The roads on the west side of the Sichuan-Tibet Highway in Southern Anhui are generally narrow, so you must pay attention to passing safety. The roads on the east side of the Sichuan-Tibet Highway in Southern Anhui are slightly wider than the west side, but there are more traffic jams. If time permits, try not to drive there on weekends or holidays. .

#passionpassport Shuimotingxi scenic spot is a beautiful place to go to for walking, swimming, fishing, exploring the water and mountains, trees, and doing some fun activities that you can find inside the scenic spot. We found a small cave, a lot of interesting plants and animals (frogs). You can see the clear water, amazing different shapes of stones, somehow slippery so be careful on your steps all the time. It’s just so relaxing to feel the breeze, be closer to the nature and just admiring it. Remember to wear comfortable shoes for walking and swimming on the water with stones ( we bought crocs on the street for 25rmb) It’s super comfy and reliable to wear around. #anhui#chinalife #summer #mountains

#passionpassport We decided to stay in a small kinda hotel and we found this Moon River Bay House. It’s a walking distance from the Moon River Bay, and the street where you can have food tripping at night. It has a nice rooftop, you can sit and relax.

Dear friends, if you're visiting Chaji Ancient Town, you must stay at Jing County Sweet Home Inn! Located right in the heart of the ancient town, it offers stunning views and is surrounded by numerous local delicacies that will satisfy your taste buds. I stayed in the family room on the third floor. The room was beautiful and clean, and the hostess provided excellent service, even offering us tea from her own collection. What surprised me the most was the rooftop terrace. Not only can you do laundry and dry your clothes there, but you can also watch the sunrise in the early morning. The distant mountain views are breathtaking, with misty clouds creating a fairyland-like atmosphere—truly healing. At night, it's very quiet, ensuring a good night's rest. This inn is a peaceful retreat amidst the bustling ancient town, complete with fish, flowers, and a homely vibe. Staying here allows you to fully relax and enjoy a leisurely time. This hidden gem of an inn offers incredible value for money. Highly recommended to everyone!

This time, we specifically chose the "Huaya Yunman · Hidden Luxury Hotel" as our destination. Initially, we thought it was just an ordinary resort, but it completely exceeded our expectations! Nestled amidst lush mountains yet only a 15-minute drive from the city center, the hotel strikes a perfect balance between seclusion and convenience. **Awe-inspiring design at first glance**—The entire building showcases a modern Oriental aesthetic, combining bamboo weaving with glass. The lobby features a floating infinity water landscape that dances with light and shadow. Upon check-in, the manager personally presented a handwritten welcome card and seasonal osmanthus brew, showing impeccable attention to detail. The rooms were full of surprises: floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows offering breathtaking views of the mountain clouds, smart mattresses that automatically adjust sleeping positions, bathrooms equipped with Dyson hairdryers and Japanese imported Binchotan shampoo, and even feather-light custom slippers. **The hidden luxury experience far exceeded expectations**! In the morning, the butler discreetly delivered freshly made peach gum and snow swallow soup. In the afternoon, we enjoyed the chef's specially crafted floral and fruit cold brew tea in a private tea room. At night, there was a stargazing cocktail party to attend. The most unique feature was the infinity pool hidden in the bamboo forest, where you could swim while overlooking the city lights, feeling like you were in a Miyazaki animation. Upon departure, the manager handed over a handwritten thank-you card and a handmade sachet. Such warmth makes you want to book a longer stay immediately!

DAY 1️⃣ ➢ First, Xuancheng is vast. The urban Xuanzhou District mainly features Jingting Mountain, but the real gems lie in its counties—Ningguo, Jixi, Jingde, and Jingxian—boasting Southern Anhui landscapes and culture rivaling Yixian and Shexian. Thus, exploring Xuancheng requires a car; only self-driving/rentals work. ➢ Second, the Southern Anhui "Tibetan Line" gets jammed during holidays, but Xuancheng shines even without it. My route covers ancient villages, museums, and landscapes, with endless layered mountains and lush greenery en route. ➢ Spend most of Day 1 driving. If renting a car at Xuancheng Station after a high-speed rail trip, grab a cup of Anhui’s local milk tea "Cawacca" 🥺. ➢ Then head to Longchuan in Jixi. Depending on time, stop by Kantou Ancient Village or Hu Village—both niche spots—before driving to Longchuan and staying nearby. DAY 2️⃣ ➢ Arrive at "Longchuan Village" by 7 AM today to dodge crowds. Fewer tourists mean better vibes. The ¥65 ticket is worth it for the "Hu Clan Ancestral Hall" and waterscapes. Fans of *The Great Ming Dynasty*? This is Hu Zongxian and his mentor’s hometown, with exquisite wood carvings. ➢ At noon, dash through "Jixi Museum" in Jixi town. Though small, its architecture intrigues. As the birthplace of Hui cuisine, the museum displays a replica feast; pick a nearby restaurant for lunch. ➢ Cool off at "Daixia Village"—rustic but sparkling with gorgeous, relaxing streams. Perfect for a dip. ➢ Time it right: reach "Luxi Village Tea Plantation" by 4 PM. This hidden aerial tea farm lets you drive up. By then, locals leave, making sunset strolls serene. Stay overnight in Jingde town. DAY 3️⃣ ➢ Morning drive to Jingxian’s "Huangtian Village" (¥50). It feels like a hidden *Peach Blossom Spring*, blending old/new homes with nature. A must for Hui-style village lovers. ➢ Next, "Xuan Paper Cultural Park" (¥60)—the trip’s busiest spot. Hongxing Xuan Paper Factory (maker of luxury "thousand-dollar paper") built this museum showcasing xuan paper craft. Stunning architecture, but packed in peak season; visit off-hours for photos. ➢ Proceed to "Zhaji Ancient Town" (¥65). More commercialized than before, which is a letdown, and crowded in peak season. Yet, its deeper alleys retain charm. ➢ End the day by driving straight to Taohuatan in Jingxian for overnight stay. DAY 4️⃣ ➢ Rise early for "Taohuatan (Peach Blossom Pool)".
