A must-see for strolling through the green grasslands

Wuyuan, known as the most beautiful countryside in China, takes you through ancient cities, villages and resorts to feel the quiet years of Hui-style architecture, the poetry of idyllic ink painting, and the Wunuzhou light show at night. It has a unique flavor whether it's sunny or rainy, suitable for those who want to savor humanity and slow life.

Itinerary guide

First stop: Honggao Ancient City
Location: Xiangao Ancient City Heavenly Heaven Scenic Area (southeast side of the intersection of Huancheng North Road and Huancheng West Road, Wuyuan County, Shangrao City)
The ancient city retains a large number of Ming and Qing style Hui-style buildings, with blue bricks and gray tiles and horse-headed walls, with winding alleys inside, suitable for walking slowly and feeling the historical atmosphere. During the day, you can enjoy the characteristic houses when you stroll through the alleys of the ancient city. You can go in and rest when you encounter a small teahouse. The lights of thousands of houses in the evening are particularly rhyming and suitable for night shooting. There are many Local teahouses and snack bars along the street. It is recommended to try Wuyuan's authentic "pocket red sugar cake", which is crispy on the outside and glutinous on the inside, and is naturally sweet.

Second stop: Likeng Village
Li Hang Village is a super popular ancient village in Wuyuan. The stream runs through the village, and the two banks are full of white-walled black tiles, ancient houses and stone bridges. Going on a cloudy and rainy day has a more "ink Jiangnan" feeling - thin mist and drizzle, the river microwaves, the village is like a painting. There are handicraft shops in the village where you can pick local souvenirs, or you can sit in a teahouse under the old trees, drink a cup of Wuyuan green tea, and enjoy a super relaxing slow life. You might as well stay a little longer and feel the human touch and natural atmosphere.

Stop 3: Wunuzhou Resort Night Show
Don’t miss the night show at Wu Nuzhou Resort at night, with riverside lights, projections and performances to showcase Wuyuan’s mountain and water culture, which is perfect for friends or parents to enjoy together. The lighting blends with the Hui-style architecture at night, the atmosphere is first-class, and the photo-taking effect is particularly beautiful.
