The mountains are stacked and the sunset is lingering

In this beautiful mountain range, the mountains are stacked and the clouds are lingering. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can overlook a tranquil lake. The lake is clear and bottomless, like a mirror, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds and the surrounding mountains. As the afterglow of the setting sun falls, the lake is dyed with a golden glow. The afterglow of the setting sun jumps on the lake, flashing golden light, as if countless little stars are twinkling. The ripples on the lake are also dyed gold, giving rise to layers of ripples, making people feel an incomparable tranquility and beauty. On the mountain peak, snowflakes are falling down, like a group of light white butterflies dancing in the cold air. Snowflakes fall on the rocks, on the branches, and on the lake. The snowflakes on the lake are like laying a thin layer of white gauze on the mirror, adding a bit of mystery and pure beauty. The surrounding mountains and trees are decorated with snowflakes, making them even more magnificent and tranquil. The afterglow of the setting sun and the falling snowflakes intertwine to form a beautiful and moving picture.

Stay at the Shuizhukeng Village B&B, and visit the Zhanshan Grand Canyon

Following the recommendation of two cycling friends on the Huizhou Sky Road, we rushed to Changxi Township in Shexian County, and cycled along the road beside the mountain canyon stream. The scenery along the way was indeed stunning. By combining driving and cycling, we reached a place of high mountains and beautiful waters, where the road markings turned into a three-colored rainbow line. There was a sign indicating that we were entering the Huizhou National Forest Park, an especially tranquil environment, which suddenly inspired us to stay overnight in a mountain village. We smoothly checked into a newly built four-story beautiful B&B, which was perfectly located by the stream passing through the village, at the center of a mountain village embraced by hills and water, enjoying a uniquely favorable location. Pulling back the curtains of the room, we saw a vast expanse of neatly arranged rapeseed flowers in the distance, and nearby, the babbling stream under the shade of ancient trees. The B&B owners were kind and generous, having done business in Shanghai for over a decade, and they proudly praised their hometown as the most beautiful place. In spring, one can see the mountains blooming with flowers, and in autumn, observe the mountains covered in red leaves, with the sound of mountain springs falling continuously to the ear, creating a poetic and picturesque atmosphere in all four seasons. Hence, the B&B was named 'Listen to the Water, Chant of the Maple'. Our village, named Shuizhukeng Village, also known as Zhuxi Village, has a history of several hundred years dating back to the Yuan Dynasty. The villagers are hardworking and the local customs are simple and pure, making it a rather authentic ancient village. After staying one night in the clean and new inn, the next day we visited the scenic spot 'Zhanshan Grand Canyon', 8 kilometers away from Shuizhukeng Village, and it was a trip well worth it!

Anhui Travel Recommendation | Zhan Mountain Grand Canyon only known by locals ||

||. Anhui Jixi Local recommended attractions: Zhan Mountain Grand Canyon Ticket + shuttle bus 💰 around 60 (cheaper to buy tickets on Ctrip than on-site), free admission with Jixi local ID card. The shuttle bus will take you to a place in the mountain, then go to the well-maintained path next to the canyon, walk all the way to the end, and return to the ticket office. It took us 1.5 hours to walk and take pictures all the way. It is said that locals will come here to escape the heat and swim in the summer. We who came in winter feel that the water is indeed very clear, constantly flowing living water. It's really beautiful, it's a pity that you can't play with water in winter. Apart from the Huizhang Ancient Road, this place is highly recommended!

Start off at staggered times and take a walk on the mountain roads of Zhejiang and Anhui

The first stop is Kan Tou Village in Jixi, with streams, old people, stone roads, ancestral halls, cooking smoke, and cacti. The lost prosperity is faintly visible in the mottled moss, and the old walls influenced by etiquette and folk customs are calm and steady.

Go to Kantou Village in southern Anhui to search for a thousand-year dream.

I recently went to Kantou Village in southern Anhui, on a journey full of mystery and fantasy. I heard that there is a thousand-year-old dream tree here, and many people come to search for it, traveling day and night. I am no exception. I took a car and a train to the small town adjacent to Kantou Village, arranged accommodation in the town, and prepared to set off the next morning. Early in the morning, just as the sky was getting light, I packed my bags and took a bus to Kantou Village. People on the bus chatted and exchanged information, making a lively and bustling atmosphere to welcome the arrival of dawn. Through a small path on the hillside, this road leads to the entrance of Kantou Village. In this small village, I feel like time has frozen hundreds of years ago. Glancing over, the thousand-year-old Dream Tree is not far away. As I approach, it is astonishingly huge. Looking up at the tree, the tree crown carved by nature rises up to the sky, its foliage dense and exuberant. In an instant, I feel an incredible shock. A thousand-year-old tree, I wonder how many stories are buried inside, I wonder if it has experienced the precipitation of many years in ancient times, which makes me feel a sense of historical weight. This tree is too big, too tall. The eaves, tiles, and houses of the entire village are all under the cover of the millennium garden, echoing with ancient historical thoughts and traditional culture remaining in the village. When I could no longer admire the thousand-year-old tree in detail, I walked to the center of the village where there was an ancient temple. This is the most beautiful place on this road, and it appropriately embodies an intangible faith. When I immerse myself in the peaceful temple and the purple micro-flower tree, I feel as if I can see the soul of this city. The sunlight is still dodging above my head. Deep into the depths of the village, I discovered an ancient ancestral hall. Places like this have been precipitating the inheritance and traditional culture of ancient society for a long time, worn down by time, and walking towards the horizon of heritage. My trip was only a few days, but I really felt the gentleness of the blooming flowers and the weight of the ancient city there. Kantou Village is not big, but it has its own ancient history and mysterious culture, like a thousand-year-old town. I am grateful for this journey, because it has led me to discover the winding and ancient history, feel the charm of traditional culture, and discover many mysterious and interesting stories. Reading through historical classics, searching for millennium dreams, this is an experience that fills me with passion and soul, and also a memorable journey in my life.
