"Recommend 9 niche travel destinations for National Day".

I've been fortunate enough to visit over 100 cities in China over the years. Today, I'd like to share with you 9 places I've visited at least three times, not only off the beaten path, but also picturesque. As National Day approaches, I hope these suggestions will bring you a whole new experience for your holiday. - ❶ Shangrao, Jiangxi Admire the sea of rapeseed flowers in Wuyuan, the autumn harvest scenery in Huangling, the mysterious atmosphere of Wangxian Valley, the iron flower show in Wunvzhu, and the hidden villages, which seem like a fairyland on earth. · ❷ Kashgar, Xinjiang There's a saying that goes, "If you haven't been to Kashgar, you haven't been to Xinjiang". This is the filming location of the movie The Kite Runner, where you can immerse yourself in the Western Region's charm and historical heritage. The local bazaar is full of cultural vibes. · ❸ Taxkorgan, Xinjiang This small town on the Pamir Plateau is where the sun sets the latest in China. Here, you can admire the magnificent scenery of southern Xinjiang, including Muztagh Ata, White Sand Lake, Panlong Ancient Road, and Muji Volcano. · ❹ Xi'an, Shaanxi While Xi'an is not a niche city, this ancient capital with a long history is still worth a visit. Visit the Shaanxi Museum, stroll along the ancient city wall, and experience the bustling Tang Dynasty Night Market. · ❺ Chengkan, Anhui Escape the crowds of Huangshan, Xidi, and Hongcun, and come to Chengkan Ancient Village, which has a history of 1,800 years. The white walls and black tiles, the bluestone paths, and the serenity of boating on the lake will leave you feeling refreshed. · ❻ Litang, Sichuan This is Ding Zhen's hometown, where you can experience the mystery of Mount Genyen, the magnificence of the Thousand Households Tibetan Village, the vast grasslands, and the simple Tibetan people. Standing on the mountaintop, overlooking this "Sky City", you'll feel your soul being shaken. · ❼ Lingshui, Hainan Adjacent to Sanya, Lingshui has a romantic Freedom Lighthouse and a small train on the sea, making you feel like you're in a fairy tale world. · ❽ Chaozhou, Guangdong Chaozhou's cuisine is mouthwatering, with beef hotpot, rice noodle rolls, and kway teow, making it a paradise for food lovers. Stroll through the archway street, or experience the fun of "crossing the bridge and demolishing it" on the Guangji Bridge. · ❾ Wuzhen, Zhejiang There are many ancient towns in Jiangnan, but my favorite is still Wuzhen. Enjoy morning tea at the water market, sip tea at a teahouse in the afternoon, admire the lanterns at night, and take a boat ride at night to enjoy a peaceful evening. -
