"Now I understand why Li Bai loved Southern Anhui so much."

🔥 It truly lives up to Li Bai's poem: "The water of Peach Blossom Pool is a thousand feet deep, yet not as deep as Wang Lun's friendship seeing me off." Southern Anhui Travel Recommendations: 📸: Mist-shrouded peaks of Huangshan (Yellow Mountain), with the morning sun piercing through the sea of clouds *:* "Southern Anhui, China's most beautiful landscape gallery! Of course, the first stop is climbing 'the most peculiar mountain under heaven'—📍Mount Huangshan (a 2-day, 1-night trip is recommended), to see the sunrise, sea of clouds, unique pines, and strange rocks. In winter, there's also stunning rime!"* 📸 **Shot 2 (Ancient Town Sculling Boat)**: Hongcun Village's Moon Pond reflects the whitewashed walls and dark gray tiles. *"Next, step into the 'Village in a Painting' 📍Hongcun Village (Yi County), with its ink-wash style Huizhou architecture + rapeseed flower fields (best from March to April). Remember to check out the wood carvings at Chengzhi Hall and the night view of Moon Pond!"* 📸 **Shot 3 (Overhead Shot)**: Emerald Valley's emerald-green pools resemble gems inlaid among the mountains. *"📍Emerald Valley (Tangkou Town) at the foot of Mount Huangshan, filming location for *Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon*. Come in summer to escape the heat and wade in the water, super refreshing!"* 📸 **Shot 4 (Human Interest Close-up)**: Elderly residents sketching and Shaiqiu scenes in Xidi Ancient Village. *"Want something more authentic? Go to 📍Xidi (Yixian County) to see the Huizhou three carvings. In the fall, during the Shaiqiu (autumn harvest drying) season, red peppers and corn cover the square, creating a wonderfully authentic atmosphere!"* 📸 **Shot 5 (Food Close-up)**: Hairy tofu pan-fried until golden brown, steaming hot stinky mandarin fish *"A must-try for foodies: Huizhou hairy tofu and stinky mandarin fish! We recommend 📍Dasha Huicaiyuan on Tunxi Old Street. Eat till you're stuffed for around 50 per person!"* 💡 **Tips**: 1️⃣ Attractions in Southern Anhui are concentrated, but roads are mountainous; chartering a car or self-driving is recommended. 2️⃣ March–April is best for rapeseed flowers; November is best for fall colors. 3️⃣ Buy Hongcun/Xidi tickets online in advance and save CNY 10! Xin'an River Landscape Gallery at sunset, fishing boats sing in the evening "Southern Anhui—The spirit of Huizhou, a living ink wash painting!"*
