2026 Anyi Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in April)

In the evening, watch the sea of orange light flood the entire street, with street lamps and the sunset together warming the days The bustling street life mixed with the market atmosphere of the door and window factory, even the wind carries the comforting scent of everyday life Stay at the All Seasons Hotel, no need to rush your schedule, just cozy up in the room and daydream, watch the clouds roll by, watch the cars come and go The slowness of Anyi is a relaxed feeling engraved in the bones. During Labor Day, you should spend your days in such a small county, turning life into a gentle poem.

With Qingming approaching, an unexpected drizzle falls on Anyi Ancient Village in the outskirts of Nanchang. There is no noise, no rush, only the gentle rain weaving a soft ink wash painting over the thousand-year-old village. Walking here, even your breath slows down, revealing that Anyi itself means tranquility. The bluestone paths are polished smooth and glossy from the rain, with moss filling the cracks, growing even greener. Light footsteps create the delicate sound of water, like whispers of time in your ear. Centuries of comings and goings have worn down the edges of the stones, leaving a smooth texture. Raindrops roll off, crystal clear—each step a scene, each step a poem. Rain curtains hang from the eaves, dripping and tapping on the dark tiles and the stone vats in the courtyard. The old Gan-style houses with mottled blue bricks, silent horse-head walls, and half-open carved wooden windows let in soft, damp daylight. The old farmhouse courtyards have lightly closed wooden gates, with plants stretching their leaves in the rain, less of the hustle and bustle of city life, more of a quiet and serene charm. Wandering through the intersecting alleys, the old buildings are arranged with grace—the grandeur of the Shi family mansion, the elegance of the ancient opera stage, the gentleness of the maiden’s tower—all appear even more tranquil in the rain. Small exhibition halls tucked in the alleys display old objects and stories. No need to study them deliberately; just walking by quietly lets you feel the weight of time. There are no crowds, only the sound of rain as company. Strolling here, watch the raindrops cling to the flying eaves, see the mist drift through the ancient lanes, and admire the thousand-year-old camphor trees standing tall like umbrellas in the rain. Your heart slows down too, shedding worldly worries to enjoy this undisturbed peace. Anyi in the rain is less bright but more graceful. No need to rush schedules or check off spots—just follow your heart, listen to the rain on the eaves, step on the bluestones, visit the old houses, and seek nostalgia. The best journey is not about chasing grand sights but meeting a gentle rain in such a peaceful ancient village, stealing a half-day of leisure from life. Anyi Ancient Village, rain falls and the heart is at ease—indeed, it is the most peaceful place.

Anyi Ancient Village is the best-preserved ancient village around Nanchang. You can take a direct shuttle bus from the tourist distribution center next to the Nanchang Tengwang Pavilion Holiday Garden Hotel, and it takes about 1.5 hours to get there. The village features ancient buildings, streets, and wells from the Ming and Qing dynasties, full of charm. I spent an entire afternoon exploring, visiting the ancient opera stage, ancestral hall, and even enjoyed some farmhouse dishes. If you also love ancient villages, you must visit Anyi. Plus, taking the bus from the distribution center next to the hotel is very convenient, making it well worth a visit.

Just 40 minutes from Nanchang, this national 4A-level scenic spot and famous historical and cultural village of China holds 1,400 years of Gan merchant heritage. It connects the three villages of Luotian, Shuinan, and Jingtai, featuring over 100 Ming and Qing dynasty ancient residences arranged harmoniously, with blue bricks and black tiles, old streets paved with granite, and a thousand-year-old Tang camphor tree—every step reveals the sediment of time. Must-visit spots: The 48 Courtyards of the World Doctor’s Residence with stunning bat-patterned flower window carvings; the millennium-old camphor tree that requires six people to embrace, believed to bring powerful blessings and wishes; the Guixiu Tower, Huang Clan Ancestral Hall, and ancient opera stage—all showcasing Gan-style architectural aesthetics. In spring, enjoy seas of rapeseed flowers; in autumn, admire the red leaves of the ancient camphor tree. Stroll through the ancient village, savor Anyi rice noodles, stay in local guesthouses, and immerse yourself in a slow-paced life filled with nostalgia. Free with Nanchang One Card

Anyi Ancient Village is a hidden gem near Nanchang, and I specially planned a day trip this time. Starting from the Nanchang Tengwang Pavilion Holiday Garden Hotel, I walked to the Bayi Bridgehead, where there is a direct tourist shuttle bus to Anyi Ancient Village. The bus ride takes about 1.5 hours, which is very convenient. The hotel front desk informed me of the departure times and ticket purchase methods, and even gave me a map. The ancient village is well preserved; we strolled through the old streets, admired the ancient buildings, and enjoyed local farmhouse dishes. In the afternoon, we took the shuttle bus back, just in time to rest at the hotel. If you also want to visit Anyi Ancient Village, staying here is very convenient for transportation, and there are plenty of dining and shopping options around the hotel. You can even go to Hama Street for a late-night snack after returning.

When tens of thousands of acres of golden flower seas cover the land of Anyi, and footsteps, wheels, and engines together awaken spring—on March 22, the starting gun fires at Yuandian Square, and four themed routes take you through the city, countryside, and ancient villages, collecting the brilliance of spring through sports. 🏃 Golden Flower Joy Run | Speed and Warmth Side by Side Unified starting point: Intersection of Fengshan Avenue and Yingbin Avenue The fun run is specially designed for energetic youth. The 7.5 km course starts from the intersection, passes Anyi Bridge, Long’an Avenue, and Anchang Highway, and finally reaches Laoxia Village. The first half runs alongside the family run through the core golden flower scenic area, while the second half delves into rural roads, accompanied by golden flower fields and panoramic countryside views, perfectly balancing athleticism and experience. The family run is a gentle choice for parent-child time. The easy 5.5 km route also starts from the intersection, passes Anyi Bridge, Long’an Avenue, and Anchang Highway, ending at Daifang Bridge. There are no high-intensity sections throughout, allowing parents and children to run hand in hand and leave springtime silhouettes amid the endless golden flower fields. 🚶 Golden Flower Walk | Slow Down and Talk with the Flowers A 5.5 km leisurely journey for 3,000 people to enjoy the spring scenery together. The route overlaps with the family run: Intersection of Fengshan Avenue and Yingbin Avenue → Anyi Bridge → Long’an Avenue → Anchang Highway → Daifang Bridge. No need to rush; you can walk, admire, take photos, and chat, gradually moving from the city into the countryside as the golden flower fields unfold like a painting scroll. Invite family and friends to turn spring into a poem amid the sea of flowers. 🚴 Picture-Perfect Ride | Wheels Measuring 17.5 km of Romance Exclusive for 300 cycling enthusiasts. Starting from the intersection of Fengshan Avenue and Yingbin Avenue, passing Long’an Avenue, Anchang Highway, and Chong’an North Road, finally arriving at Anyi Ancient Village. This is the longest route of the event, connecting city roads, countryside flower seas, and a thousand-year-old village. The first half races through vast golden flower fields, the second half enters a pastoral secret realm, and the finish line at the ancient village offers a perfect photo spot, capturing the dual spring memories of "flower sea + ancient village." 🏍️ "Moto" Fantasy Journey | Engine Roaring, Trendy Wind Chasing 100 motorcycles invited by appointment, also a 17.5 km journey. The route is the same as the cycling line: Intersection of Fengshan Avenue and Yingbin Avenue → Long’an Avenue → Anchang Highway → Chong’an North Road → Anyi Ancient Village. Riding a motorcycle through the wind, the flower sea rapidly retreats on both sides, with wind and floral fragrance blending into a unique speed aesthetic. Wide-open road sections and scattered rural villages make every spot a perfect check-in point, unlocking the hardcore romance of motorcycle travel colliding with the flower sea. Four routes, four speeds, one spring color. On March 22, Anyi uses golden flowers as a letter, waiting for you to write your own spring footnote with your footsteps, wheels, or engine. 🌼

Who would have thought! I just saw a picture by chance, and the next day I was standing on the ridges of the fields in Anyi Ancient Village. When the March wind blows, the entire fields of rapeseed flowers ripple like golden waves, with 1,400 years of blue bricks and black tiles behind. At that moment, I was truly stunned, only four words left in my mind: Life is worth it. 🚶‍♀️My walking route (personally tested, no detours) Enter from Luotian Village at 10 a.m. Look up and you’ll see the 1,300-year-old ancient camphor tree, its trunk so thick that three people can’t hug it around. Local elders say this tree has a spirit. I secretly touched it, making a wish. Further in is the “Residence of the World’s Great Doctor.” There are 48 courtyards! I got dizzy counting to the 20th. Sunlight pours down from above, like stepping into a movie. There’s a small corner that’s especially photogenic, the shadow of wooden window lattices cast on the white walls, any shot looks like a scene from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Had lunch in Shuainan Village, sitting under an old locust tree by the stream, next to a waterwheel creaking as it turns. The owner served a bowl of Anyi rice noodles, smoothly slurped into my mouth, · ooking up to see the distant sea of flowers. Days like this, I wouldn’t trade even with a fairy. In the afternoon, wandered to Jingtai Village, just in time to catch some elders singing opera in front of the ancient stage. The Gan opera sounds yiyi yaya, I didn’t understand a word but listened for half an hour. The wind blew past the horse-head walls, past the rapeseed fields, and also blew into my heart. 📸Secret photo spots (few people! Stunning!) 1️⃣ The small dirt hill behind Luotian Village, a 5-minute climb, the whole ancient village and flower sea come into view. The light at 4 p.m. is perfect. 2️⃣ Walk 50 meters inside the stone archway of Jingtai Village, there’s an abandoned old alley, moss crawling up the wall roots. Look up and a corner of the horse-head wall appears, behind it blue sky and rapeseed flowers. The composition is simply divine. 3️⃣ Stone steps by the stream in Shuainan Village, crouch down to shoot the waterwheel’s reflection, a few rapeseed petals float on the water, it’s like a moving painting. 💡Some honest tips · Don’t crowd at the village entrance flower sea; walk 200 meters inside for a no-people zone. · Go on a sunny day! On cloudy days, the horse-head walls lose their light and shadow, which is less impressive. · Wear light colors or Hanfu; photos taken on your phone will look like a blockbuster. · Buy tickets online in advance to save 20 yuan. · Driving is most convenient; parking in the village is free. · If you want to stay overnight, the old house homestay in Luotian has a century-old carved bed. That afternoon, I sat dazed on the stone steps in Jingtai Village, a ginger cat basking in the sun beside me, the distant opera singing drifting intermittently, the scent of rapeseed flowers mixed with earth. At that moment, I suddenly understood what it means to say “Ten miles of spring breeze can’t compare to you.” If you’re also looking for a place to slow down yourself, come to Anyi in March. The flowers only bloom for 20 days, if you miss it, you’ll have to wait another year.

The colorful rapeseed flowers shattered my original impression of them being plain and simple. It turns out they can be so vibrant and beautiful. This time, I chose to take bus 🚌 No. 69 to Tanjiafan Station, then walked into the village (about 1.5 hours round trip). PS: I tend to walk slowly because I stop to play and take photos 📷. You can set your navigation destination to Panwan Village. Along the way, you'll pass a small patch of colorful rapeseed fields (though small, they are truly beautiful). Then you can continue walking to the final stop, Panwan Village. Unfortunately, I missed the peak blooming season of the rapeseed flowers. If the weather is nice and you want to breathe fresh air, you can choose to walk like me. Of course, you can also drive 🚗 there.

🌼 March, the season when rapeseed flowers are in full bloom It's time for the annual rapeseed flower trip‼️ Three routes to explore Anyi Ancient Village: 1️⃣ Sea of Rapeseed Flowers 🌼 The rapeseed flowers are growing very well, as tall as people. Walking into them feels like being immersed in a sea of flowers, with the ancient town's historic backdrop and the surrounding mountains blending beautifully. 2️⃣ Anyi Ancient Village The first time visiting Anyi Ancient Village, it was crowded with people and bustling vendors everywhere. Returning after ten years, it has become much more relaxed and peaceful! ☕ 🏯 As a town full of historical charm, if you're interested in culture and history, it's worth experiencing the local customs and lifestyle. 3️⃣ Open-Air Camping Site This is a newly developed area with complete recreational facilities!

In Luotian Village, ancient camphor trees tower; in Shuinan Village, the babbling creek accompanies the gentle turning of waterwheels; in Jingtai Village, the ancient archways and old opera stages stand quietly, occasionally filled with the melodious sounds of traditional opera. The Gan-style architecture is distinctive: blue bricks and black tiles, thick high walls, and horse-head walls arranged like an ink painting; wooden door lintels carved with vivid flowers, birds, and figures; stone carvings of dragons, phoenixes, and auspicious beasts full of vitality; and brick carvings with simple and elegant lines.

In the interweaving of knives and pens, the charm is like a flowing spring of vitality; between the square inches of the plaque, the true chapter of art shines like a brilliant star. An Yi plaque calligraphy carving, this name is like a key, opening the door to an ancient art. This is a manual technique of carving calligraphy on wooden boards and transforming them into plaques through decorative techniques. Looking back at the long river of history, since the eighth year of the Zhengde reign of the Ming Dynasty, this craft has been like a resilient seed, taking root and sprouting in the soil of the Zou family in Banxi. From generation to generation, until today, it has been passed down for six generations, like a living historical masterpiece. Calligraphy and sculpture can be regarded as a wonderful fusion of art, whose essence lies in using knives instead of pens and combining knives and pens into one. What it presents is not simply a replica of its appearance, but rather a complete preservation of the ethereal and subtle charm of flying white in calligraphy. To achieve this goal, based on the traditional carving knife technique that inherits the wisdom of our predecessors, we have innovatively created the "hook shaped knife technique" with ingenuity. This unique swordsmanship allows the blade and the pen to follow closely and dance together in harmony, creating a captivating and dynamic beauty. In this way, the beauty of form, the agility of spirit, the depth of meaning, the grandeur of momentum contained in calligraphy, as well as the deep and rich emotions in ink, can all be vividly displayed on the plaque, as if endowing the plaque with a fresh soul. Let the beauty of Chinese calligraphy, under the wonderful interweaving of knives and pens, be revitalized like a phoenix bathed in fire, continuing to write legendary chapters.
