Nearby trips in Yongzhou - I discovered the "Little Erhai Lake of Hunan"~

🌿Friends! Who knows! I found the "Little Erhai Lake of Hunan" around Yongzhou~No need to travel far to Dali, you can get the same kind of romance! 🚗 Starting from Yongzhou, a 3.5-hour drive brought me to the treasure spot of Wayaoping Ancient Town in Chenzhou✨! Just navigate to "Chenzhou Wayaoping Ancient Town Zhuangyuanmao Wood-fired Kiln," and you can start a super healing ancient town trip with zero entrance fee~I suggest spending 2-3 hours leisurely exploring, every corner hides surprises! 💫 Walking into the ancient town, I was instantly captivated by the beautiful riverside scenery~The breeze gently blows, the river surface sparkles with ripples🌊, it really feels like being by Erhai Lake! Enjoying the river breeze, I completely relaxed~Strolling along the bluestone paths, the streets are full of treasure shops! Exquisite handicrafts, stunning Hunan embroidery, and various traditional snack shops with enticing aromas, taking photos while eating and exploring, happiness maxed out📸🍢! 🐾 Here’s the highlight! You must check in at the town’s top spot—Zhuangyuanmao Wood-fired Kiln! The moment you open the door, the aroma of bread baked in the traditional wood-fired kiln hits you🥖! The crust is golden and crispy, with a "crack" when bitten, while the inside is soft and fluffy, with a rich texture! Pair it with a freshly ground latte☕, sit by the window, watch the people coming and going in the ancient town, and feel the peacefulness of time~ 🍲 Speaking of food, the ancient town’s delicacies are amazing! You must try Dengzhanba, crispy on the outside and tender inside, full of rice fragrance; and the warm Yao family oil tea, one sip warms you from the stomach to the heart🔥! 🚕 Transportation is super convenient~For those driving, just navigate to the parking lot, worry-free parking; if taking the high-speed train to Chenzhou West Station, a taxi ride of about 30 minutes will get you straight to the ancient town! Friends, hurry up! Experience a romantic and healing trip at the "Little Erhai Lake of Hunan"~💕
