I chose a niche route, went deep into northern Anhui, and found that it was really "interesting"!👣 🚅Day1: First impression of Huainan, a collision of history and modernity! From Beijing, take a high-speed train for 4 hours to reach Huainan. The first stop is Tianmu Lake (free admission! Highly recommended!), with beautiful mountains and lakes.🏞️ Next, visit the Anhui Paper Mill, this nostalgic abandoned factory seems to tell the story of its past glory, every step echoes with history.🏭 Huainan Ferry Terminal has a unique flavor, cars, tricycles, two-wheeled vehicles, pedestrians, all piled up on the boat, one yuan per person for a single trip, experience the most down-to-earth way to cross the river, really "interesting"!🛥️ 🚗Day2: Shou County Ancient City and Fengyang, a magical journey through ancient and modern times!

This is the highlight of the trip! 🏛️ Fengyang Mingzhongdu Ruins, this "unfinished building" from the Zhu Yuanzhang period, has now become a witness to history. Walking among them, you can almost hear the echoes of that distant era.🏯 🌃 Mingzhongdu Drum Tower, under the brightly lit ancient city wall, I felt the unique rhythm of this city. In the square, young people's energetic dance steps injected new vitality into this ancient city.💃 Fengyang, without the hustle and bustle of high-speed rail, retains its purest charm, becoming the city that touched me the most on this trip.💖 Northern Anhui, this forgotten land, left a deep impression on me in its own unique way.
