The Ultimate Summer Escape | Banqiao Village on the Anhui-Tibet Line

120 kilometers of Jiangnan's scenic road encapsulating Anhui's natural beauty: gentle waves like Guilin, unique rock formations like Stone Forest, and thrilling mountain roads reminiscent of Route 318. Summer brings lush greenery and cool temperatures (average 25°C), with bamboo forests, deep pools, and ancient villages creating picturesque scenes. 📌 2-Day 1-Night Comprehensive Guide Day 1: Drive through Jiangnan's scenic road and stay amidst nature Morning: Enter from the eastern Ningguo entrance → Chujia Beach (misty lake views, ride a bamboo raft into a watercolor painting); Noon: Enjoy authentic local dishes like roasted fish and Ningguo rice cakes in Fangtang Township; Afternoon: Head straight to Banqiao Village, check into a homestay → play by the creek → enjoy dinner while watching the sunset from the homestay. Day 2: Conquer the peak of the scenic road and explore cool hidden spots Early morning: Depart from the homestay → Taoling Road (six sharp turns! Continuous hairpin bends for an adrenaline rush—hold your phone tight); Noon: Cool off at Ink Tingxi under the shade, walk the glass bridge on Anhui's ancient path; Afternoon: Off-road adventure at Moon Bay (navigate to "Sanhe Bridge" for free, less crowded wild streams) → return trip. 🏡 Hidden Moments in Banqiao Village ✅ Homestays nestled in Banqiao Village offer views of layered green mountains and rolling clouds over bamboo peaks like a fairyland. Rooms feature wooden decor and panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows. Wake up to birdsong and stargaze at night. ✅ A 2-minute walk leads to a wild creek: crystal-clear water! Bring water guns and nets for creek exploration and water fights with kids. Chill watermelon in the creek for natural cooling. 💡 Insider Tips ⚠️ Reverse route for smoother travel: Start from the western Jingxian entrance and exit at the eastern Ningguo entrance to avoid 90% of traffic and ensure a smooth ride on Taoling Road; ⚠️ Safety first when playing in water: Creek stones are slippery—wear water shoes! Bring a change of clothes; 🌿 While cities are engulfed in heat waves, even the breeze here carries the refreshing scent of bamboo leaves. @Ctrip Community Creation Center @Ctrip Travel Photography @Ctrip Homestay @Ctrip Travel
