Autumn Season Don't waste the good time Decided to take the Sichuan-Tibet line in southern Anhui I also made some decisions. Open map Zoom in You can see the layers of hairpin bends It is worthy of being called Jiangnan Tianlu . 🚗Route Day 1 Self-drive in Hangzhou for 2.5 hours—Xuancheng (lunch)—West entrance of Sichuan-Tibet Highway in Southern Anhui—Moon Bay—Shuimo Tingxi—Taoling Liudao Bay—Hotel Day 2 Depart at 6:30 — Fallen Redwood Forest — Qinglong Bay — Moon Bay — Ningguo East Exit — Drive 2 hours to Hangzhou Why choose to enter from the west and exit from the east? Because the redwood forest is filled with morning mist in the early morning of November, you must get up early to see it. If you choose the west entrance, you can rest for a night at the Halfway Hotel and set out to the redwood forest early the next morning. . 🏠Live We arrived at the hotel at around 2:00 p.m. and finally decided on this one after careful selection. The room was very spacious, with a whole wall of floor-to-ceiling windows, which cured the fatigue of half a day's running around. The temperature in the mountains had started to drop by then, so we arrived at the restaurant in time for afternoon tea. The sunshine at four o'clock is beautiful, shining warmly in the backyard. I moved a chair and quietly enjoyed the leisure of the weekend. You can take a short walk in the nearby mountains. It gets dark around 5 o'clock. The hotel has a restaurant, which is a good place to experience the characteristics of Huizhou. . 🧾Itinerary Starting from downtown Hangzhou, it takes about three hours to reach the western entrance of the Southern Anhui Sichuan-Tibet Highway (you can navigate directly). It is recommended to have lunch before entering the mountains. Next, we will officially start our self-driving journey on the winding mountain road, passing Taoling Liudaowan along the way. Get up at six o'clock the next day and drive for about an hour to reach the Fallen Redwood Forest Scenic Area. The parking spaces in the scenic area are limited. It is strongly recommended to arrive before 8 o'clock in the morning, or stay in a homestay near the gate of the scenic area the night before. There is an outdoor viewing platform about 100 meters west of the Redwood Forest Scenic Area, which is an ideal drone shooting spot. The roads on the west side of the Sichuan-Tibet Highway in Southern Anhui are generally narrow, so you must pay attention to passing safety. The roads on the east side of the Sichuan-Tibet Highway in Southern Anhui are slightly wider than the west side, but there are more traffic jams. If time permits, try not to drive there on weekends or holidays. .

#passionpassport Shuimotingxi scenic spot is a beautiful place to go to for walking, swimming, fishing, exploring the water and mountains, trees, and doing some fun activities that you can find inside the scenic spot. We found a small cave, a lot of interesting plants and animals (frogs). You can see the clear water, amazing different shapes of stones, somehow slippery so be careful on your steps all the time. It’s just so relaxing to feel the breeze, be closer to the nature and just admiring it. Remember to wear comfortable shoes for walking and swimming on the water with stones ( we bought crocs on the street for 25rmb) It’s super comfy and reliable to wear around. #anhui#chinalife #summer #mountains

No wonder Li Bai was so fond of Southern Anhui's landscapes. Even doing nothing but quietly gazing at the vast greenery washes away anxiety and bad moods. - 🏯 Secluded Mountain Retreat: 25 rooms scattered along mountain streams, each floor-to-ceiling window framing a landscape painting. Mornings begin with pushing open windows to mist rising from Tingxi River, distant mountains like ink-wash on rice paper. Flipping to Li Bai's verse "Beyond the railing, a creek flows, moonlight fracturing in its ripples," you'll hear the exact tinkling stream outside. - 💦 Mountain Stream Play: ▫ Afternoon dips in the cloud-level pool shatter bamboo reflections and drifting clouds. Lounge poolside with iced drinks as summer heat dissolves into ripples. ▫ Creek fishing: A shallow jade-clear stream before the hotel. Lift mossy stones to spot darting minnows. ▫ Family cinema: Cozy vintage movie nights. ▫ Cliffside dining: Restaurant embedded in rock face. Rainy days offer front-row seats to clouds devouring peaks. - Nearby 🌄: Ink-wash Tingxi – wade upstream chasing waterfalls. Zhaji Ancient Village – listen to raindrops on mossy courtyards in centuries-old "four-waters-converging" houses. Taoling Highway – roll down windows, let 72-hairpin bends' mountain winds fill your shirt. Bamboo rafts carry slow time, mountain breezes flip unfinished poetry pages. All you need? Leap into this living ink-scroll. 📍 Xuancheng Jing County · Xuan'an Resort (Moon Bay section of Southern Anhui's Sichuan-Tibet Route)

The biggest surprise of this trip was absolutely this divine homestay! Like a hidden pearl nestled in a landscape of mountains and water, it completely cured my urban anxiety. 🏞️ A Painting Outside the Window, Sleeping Amidst the Scenery The location of this homestay is simply unbeatable! My room had a full-length floor-to-ceiling window—when I drew the curtains in the morning, wow! Rolling green mountains wrapped in mist, and outside, a swaying sea of emerald bamboo groves🌿, rippling like waves with every breeze. Sitting in the rattan chair by the window, lost in thought, I felt like I’d stepped into a landscape painting. Even better was the terrace, with a hanging rattan chair suspended by the bamboo forest. Sipping a cup of local wild tea🍵, watching the clouds drift by, time itself seemed to slow down. 🛏️ Natural Aesthetics, Warmth in the Details The room embraced a gentle wabi-sabi style, with wooden furniture exuding a faint pine fragrance and linen bedding soft against the skin. The details truly won me over: bamboo-woven lampshades casting warm golden light🛋️, wildflowers freshly picked and arranged in clay vases💐, even the sink carved from river stones. The bathtub faced the bamboo forest, and as I soaked, the rustling of bamboo leaves🎋 washed away all fatigue. 👨‍🍳 Hosts Like Old Friends, Warming Hearts and Stomachs The owners, a couple who truly understand the art of living, welcomed me with chilled bayberry juice to beat the heat🍹 and served homemade fruit wine in the evening. When I mentioned wanting to hike, they immediately sketched a map🗺️, marking hidden valleys known only to locals: "Follow Xingzhi Stream upstream, take the third right fork, and you’ll find a valley of wild lilies!" At dawn the next day, the hostess had already prepared breakfast: steamed buns stuffed with bamboo shoots🔥, wild mushroom congee, and freshly ground soy milk, all steaming in rustic clay bowls—each bite bursting with mountain freshness. 🌌 Blanketed by Stars, Woken by Birdsong Nighttime was pure magic! With the terrace lights off, the sky revealed a dazzling sea of stars🌌, the Milky Way so clear it felt within reach. The owner brought out a small charcoal stove to warm red date tea and shared mountain legends. That night, I fell asleep to the white noise of the stream. At dawn, I was gently awakened by birdsong🐦☀️, and when I opened the window, mist curled around the bamboo tips like a fairy tale. A Revelation of Slow Living Here, three days felt like a lifetime. The so-called "luxury wilderness" isn’t about material excess but letting nature become the backdrop of life—listening to the wind, watching bamboo sway, waiting for a flower to bloom, counting stars as they pass by the window. As I left, the owner pressed a bag of mountain tea into my hands: "Come back when the apricots ripen—the stream is sweetest then." Oh, I’ll definitely return! ✨🍃 📍 Hidden Gems of the Homestay ▪️ After rain, you can find bamboo fungus in the courtyard. ▪️ The study has rare botanical guides for guests to borrow. ▪️ The Shiba Inu "A-Xing" will lead you to the stream for a splash🐕.

It is renowned for its exceptional "30° North Latitude" energy belt, where the values of sunlight, air, water, and magnetic field rival those of longevity villages. Encircled by 100,000 acres of untouched forest, the area features canyon streams weaving through bamboo groves and peculiar rock formations. A 4.2-kilometer flat waterside trail makes it accessible for all ages. Morning mists drape like silk, while evening stars scatter across the horizon. The crystal-clear stream resembles amber, and waterfalls cascade down mountain ravines, creating a dynamic ink painting. 🛏️ Sanlu Mountain Lodge: A premium mountain retreat in the heart of the scenic area ✅ Unmatched Location The lodge is situated in the core area of the Ink Tingxi scenic zone.

Eco-Modern Fusion: Wooden furniture paired with smart toilets, thermostatic showers, and high-end disposable toiletries ensure meticulous attention to detail. ✅ Exclusive Mountain Cuisine The restaurant emphasizes "locally sourced ingredients": dishes infused with Tingxi Lanshan tea, free-range chicken stews, charcoal-grilled fresh stream fish, and vegetables grown on-site. A must-try is the "Bamboo Forest Free-Range Chicken Soup," which diners describe as "so fresh it touches the soul." 🚣 Exclusive Activities for Guests: Two-Day, One-Night In-Depth Itinerary Day 1: Dynamic Adventure Morning: Challenge the "Nanshan First Fly" paragliding experience, overlooking the canyon panorama. Afternoon: Enjoy thrilling canyon rafting, navigating streams through the untouched forest. Evening: Sip tea in the lodge's courtyard, brewing "Tingxi Lanshan" tea with Nanshan spring water, and watch the sunset paint the clouds red.

Dear friends, if you're visiting Chaji Ancient Town, you must stay at Jing County Sweet Home Inn! Located right in the heart of the ancient town, it offers stunning views and is surrounded by numerous local delicacies that will satisfy your taste buds. I stayed in the family room on the third floor. The room was beautiful and clean, and the hostess provided excellent service, even offering us tea from her own collection. What surprised me the most was the rooftop terrace. Not only can you do laundry and dry your clothes there, but you can also watch the sunrise in the early morning. The distant mountain views are breathtaking, with misty clouds creating a fairyland-like atmosphere—truly healing. At night, it's very quiet, ensuring a good night's rest. This inn is a peaceful retreat amidst the bustling ancient town, complete with fish, flowers, and a homely vibe. Staying here allows you to fully relax and enjoy a leisurely time. This hidden gem of an inn offers incredible value for money. Highly recommended to everyone!
