I love Chengkan, the number one ancient village in the south of the Yangtze River, more than Hongcun

Chengkan, listed as one of the most beautiful ancient villages by 'National Geographic', retains the beauty of the Huizhou-style architecture of southern Anhui. Compared to the hustle and bustle of Hongcun💃🏻, I prefer the quiet and secluded life here🌃! 🚗Transportation Take the high-speed train🚄 to Huangshan North Station, then take bus 17🚌 or a taxi🚗 for 20 minutes, heading to the southwest gate!

A place of sheer devotion in life, no dreams to Huizhou! This place is probably the ultimate retreat. They say that to travel to Chengkan is to have a life without pitfalls! I hope everyone is doing well🏅
