It is 6 kilometers long and 1.8 meters wide, entirely paved with fine bluestone slabs. The bluestone slabs along the road are well-preserved, winding and secluded, with an ancient charm. The Ancient Wenchang Path connects two mountain ridges over 600 meters above sea level, Wenshan Ridge and Ba Ridge, with a 2000-meter-long horizontal road in between. Six pavilions were built along the way for mountain people to rest while working or visiting relatives. The Ancient Wenchang Path was once the main passage for the people of Dazhouyuan to the outside world. The people of Dazhouyuan used this path to carry rice to Jingde, study in the county town, and do business in Zhejiang. The ancient path from Chakou Village to Wenshan Village is about 2.5 kilometers long, with 1736 stone steps. Wenshan Village is a true mountain village, with almost no flat land. The houses are built on the mountainside at an altitude of about 600 meters. There is a place called "Hundred-Step Ladder" in the middle of the ancient path, with more than a hundred steps built along the cliff, curving around the mountain pass. The people of Wenshan Village say that the stonemason who built this place boasted that if any stone slab became loose decades later, he would use silver dollars to level it. Nearly a hundred years have passed, and the "Hundred-Step Ladder" is still firm and neat. After passing the Hundred-Step Ladder and walking for another three to five minutes, you will reach the three-way intersection of the ancient path: left to Chengfuyuan Village in Wuyang Township, right to the foot of Ba Ridge in Bayuan Village, Changxi Township. Standing at the three-way intersection, looking around at the ancient path winding through the mountain ridges, the hurried figures of Huizhou merchants from a hundred years ago seem to reappear in the morning mist. 🚌【Transportation Guide】: (Recommended to drive) 1: Hangrui Expressway/G56 (Huihang Expressway) Shexian Jinshan Exit: 30 kilometers to Chakou (entrance of the Ancient Wenchang Path), about 45 minutes by car, passing through S324 and X012 lines; 32 kilometers to the middle section of the ancient path (Wenshan Village), about 50 minutes by car. 2: Jingtai Expressway/G3 (Hetonghuang Expressway) Huizhou District Exit: 59 kilometers to Chakou (entrance of the Ancient Wenchang Path), about 1 hour and 25 minutes by car, passing through S324 and X012 lines; 61 kilometers to the middle section of the ancient path (Wenshan Village), about 1 hour and 31 minutes by car. 👉【Itinerary】: 3 days and 2 nights itinerary D1 Departure → Shitan | Chakou Town - (Ancient Wenchang Path hike - about 6 kilometers) - Changxi Xiabayuan Village - (1 hour) - Shitan Village [Stay in Shitan Village] D2 Shitan → Shendu | Shitan Village - (Shitan Loop - Xiatian - Hushan - Beishan 3-5 hours) - Yangchan Earth Building (2 hours) [Stay in Shendu or Yangchan] D3 Shendu → Departure | Xin'an River Landscape Gallery Cruise (2 hours) - Huizhou Ancient Town (3 hours) - Return 4 days and 3 nights itinerary D1 Departure → Shitan | Chakou Town - (Ancient Wenchang Path hike - about 6 kilometers) - Changxi Xiabayuan Village - (1 hour) - Shitan Village [Stay in Shitan Village] D2 Shitan → Shendu | Shitan Village - (Shitan Loop - Xiatian - Hushan - Beishan 3-5 hours) - Yangchan Earth Building (2 hours) [Stay in Shendu or Yangchan] D3 Shendu → Huangshan City | Xin'an River Landscape Gallery Cruise (2 hours) - Huizhou Ancient Town (3 hours) - Tunxi Old Street D4 Huangshan City → Departure | Tangyue Archway Complex and Bao Family Garden - Tangmo Ancient Town - Return Shitan Village Yangchan Earth Building Xin'an River Landscape Gallery Huizhou Ancient City Tangmo Tangyue Archway Complex and Bao Family Garden 🧡【Preparation】: 1.
