If you only have one choice for a spring destination, it has to be Huangling in Wuyuan.

This place, named the most beautiful village in China by *National Geographic*, is absolutely stunning in spring! Rapeseed flowers stretch across the mountains and fields, complemented by the white walls and black tiles of Hui-style architecture, and pear and peach blossoms are everywhere. From a distance, it looks like a Monet spring oil painting 🖼, beautiful to the extreme‼ 📍Huangling Scenic Area, Wuyuan, Jiangxi Take the high-speed train to "Wuyuan Station", then take a taxi or bus.
