This hidden gem in Guangdong is a seriously underrated treasure!

Who says only Guizhou has stunning landscapes and ancient towns? Here, ancient villages nestle amidst mountains and rivers, surrounded by lush greenery reminiscent of "The Wizard of Oz." Tiered stilt houses line the riverbanks, creating a scene that feels like a journey to the southwestern frontier, completely changing your impression of Guangdong! Here, you'll find no bustling crowds or excessive commercialization. Especially on rainy days, the swirling mist creates a truly enchanting atmosphere. Stroll along the mountain streams, feel the cool mist on your skin, and let time stand still as you embrace the tranquility and peace. 📍 Location: Yunji Mountain National Nature Reserve 🎫 Tickets: 24 yuan 🅿️ Parking: 10 yuan (unlimited time, hassle-free parking) 🌟 Travel Guide 1️⃣ Easy Access: The ancient town is just a few hundred meters walk from the main entrance of the scenic area. Although small, the town is full of charming scenes. A leisurely stroll takes about an hour. 2️⃣ Hiking Experience: Besides the ancient town, this area is a hiker's paradise! The 11 km hiking loop reaches an altitude of 1402 meters and takes 5-6 hours to summit. Even without reaching the top, you can enjoy breathtaking mountain views in about 3 hours. 3️⃣ Hidden Gem: The ancient town is not yet overly commercialized, so even during holidays, you can enjoy a peaceful and uncrowded experience. 4️⃣ Outfit Recommendations: Traditional Chinese clothing perfectly complements the ancient town's atmosphere. Light-colored dresses and cheongsams also make for great photos. Strolling through the town on a rainy day evokes the charm of a Jiangnan water town. 5️⃣ Food Recommendations: The surrounding farmhouses offer delicious local cuisine. Don't miss the local specialty cheung fun (rice noodle rolls) filled with wood ear mushrooms. The rich and savory flavors are unforgettable! Tired of the city's hustle and bustle? Escape to this "hidden ancient town" in Guangdong for a tranquil mountain getaway!
