A fantastic one-day tour of Hongcun Village is here!

It feels like going back to childhood~ Best Route 7:00 AM - 8:30 AM: First, go to Nanhu Painting Bridge. The bridge across the lake is incredibly beautiful, like stepping into a traditional Chinese painting🎨. Then, head to Moon Pond. The pond in the morning mist is simply a fairyland. Afterward, visit Chengzhi Hall and Shuren Hall to experience the historical charm~ In the afternoon, make a wish at the red and white ancient trees, and maybe your wish will come true. Enjoy tea at the Sunset Tea House in the evening, and take a night tour of the Shuizhen waterway to see the swaying lanterns🏮. Must-See Photo Spots 1. Nanhu Arch Bridge: Highly recommend aerial photography to capture stunning "person in the painting" shots📷. 2. Moon Pond Reflection: Remember to bring a polarizing filter. The photos taken when the morning mist lingers are breathtaking. 3. Red and White Ancient Trees: You can receive a red ribbon from an old lady under the trees to make a wish, a very ceremonial experience✨. Huizhou Food Memories 1. Deyue Restaurant's Stinky Mandarin Fish: The fermented aroma is amazing, perfect with rice. You won't forget it after one bite😋. 2. Wang Family Winery's Hairy Tofu: Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Dipped in chili sauce, it instantly brings back childhood memories. 3. Grandma's Wu Mi Fan at the end of the alley: The sweet glutinous rice is wrapped in fragrant bamboo leaves. At 5 yuan a serving, it's super cost-effective. Travel Tips 1. Be sure to wear soft-soled shoes. The flagstone roads are uneven, and soft-soled shoes make walking comfortable. Otherwise, it's like getting a "massage"🤣. 2. Avoid weekends from 9 AM to 11 AM, or the hordes of tour groups will make you question life. 3. Bring an oil-paper umbrella during the rainy season. Walking in the alleys with an umbrella, you'll instantly transform into the person in Dai Wangshu's poem, increasing your photogenic level by +50%💯. My Serendipitous Encounter At the corner of Jingxiu Hall, I met an old man selling malt sugar. Humming a Huangmei Opera tune, he handed me a piece of candy and said, "Little girl, are you lost? The alleys of Hongcun will lead those who are destined back home." Following the sound of the gurgling water, I unexpectedly found my way back to the inn. The waterways here are like a natural navigation system. It's amazing😆. Tips At 6 AM, follow the locals and buy freshly baked crab shell yellow biscuits. Munch on them while waiting for the morning mist to drift over the horse head walls. At this time, the empty Hongcun is like a true paradise, super relaxing. When the lanterns light up one by one, sit by Moon Pond and listen to the gurgling water. It truly allows hurried travelers to stop and appreciate the beauty of time💕.
