Ancient charm: Explore the traces of history in the bricks and tiles

My weekend travel guide! 😍 ### 1️⃣ [Xidi]: The ancient and tranquil beauty of a World Heritage Site Xidi, a World Heritage Site located in Yixian County, attracts countless visitors with its ancient and tranquil atmosphere. 🌫️ Narrow alleys, low houses, mist rising from the distant mountains, ripples in the pond, smoke rising from the white walls and black tiles, and young people sketching by the stone bridge and stream, all exude a charming charm. 🏞️ The viewing platform on the mountain opposite the village offers a breathtaking view of the entire village, with the distant mountains and mist adding to the beauty. 📸 ### 2️⃣ [Nanping]: The Huizhou style in film and television dramas Nanping, about 6 km from Yixian County, is a typical ancient village in southern Anhui. The commercial atmosphere here is very light, and even during holidays, there are not many people, making it very suitable for a quiet visit. 🏡 The village has a large number of typical Huizhou-style buildings, with layers of horse-head walls showcasing extreme aesthetics. 🏛️ There are two ancestral halls on the square in the center of the village, among which the Ye Family Ancestral Hall (Xuzhi Hall) is the main filming location for the movie "Ju Dou" and has also been featured in many other films and TV shows, such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "The Sky of History." 🎥 ### 3️⃣ [Hongcun]: The poetic picture of a green ox village Hongcun in Yixian County is famous for its unique layout. From a high vantage point, the entire village resembles a green ox lying by the stream in front of the mountain, with the Moon Pond as the ox's stomach, the South Lake as the ox's belly, and the four bridges over the stream as the ox's legs. 🌈 The South Lake and Moon Pond became popular as filming locations for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," and these two spots are also great for taking photos. 📷 ### 4️⃣ [Bishan]: The artistic utopia with a literary sentiment Bishan Village is famous for its unique "Bishan Project." Although the project has not been fully realized, it has left many wonderful marks on the village. 🎨 The village has a strong artistic atmosphere, and Bishan Bookstore, a rural pilot of Nanjing's Xianfeng Bookstore, has become a popular spot for literary youth. 📚 In short, the opening of the Changjinghuang High-speed Railway not only brings convenience in transportation but also offers real discounts for tourists. Come to Yixian County and visit these four unique scenic spots for an unforgettable and wonderful journey! ✨
