It's said that "the most unforgettable place in life is Huizhou, a place one never dreams of," but Huizhou in autumn is simply a place where those words are welded into the very fabric of its scenery! When the autumn wind sweeps across the mountains of southern Anhui, the tallow trees blaze red, the rice paddies stretch into golden waves, and the white-walled, black-tiled houses appear and disappear amidst the sea of clouds—only then do you understand what it means when "God spilled his palette and splashed it all over Huizhou." I've personally tested this 3-day, 2-night itinerary; it's fun, foolproof, and guaranteed to make your social media feed explode with photos! 📍3 Days 2 Nights Golden Itinerary (Lazy Person's Guide) Day 1: A Stroll Through Bishan's Pastoral Scenery Arrived in Yixian County in the morning and headed straight to Zhongcheng Mountain Villa for check-in. A Hui-style garden hotel, opening the window reveals verdant mountains and black-tiled houses—a perfect start to the day! In the afternoon, rent a mountain bike and ride along the Bishan rice paddies. The wind is filled with the sweet fragrance of rice stalks, and the golden waves of rice ripple in the breeze, like stepping into a Miyazaki Hayao animation world. When you get tired, head to the Bishan Bookstore, a bookstore converted from an old ancestral hall, and have a cup of tea. Sunlight streams through the windows, casting dappled shadows on the pages, making time seem to slow down. In the evening, you absolutely must visit Yixian Ancient Town! Join the intangible cultural heritage lantern parade for a nighttime stroll. Red lanterns illuminate the ancient stone streets, and you might even encounter vendors selling handmade trinkets—the atmosphere is incredibly lively. Day 2: A Double Attack of Red and Green in Tachuan Who understands! Tachuan's autumn doesn't need a filter! In the morning, head straight to the Luba Terraces viewing platform. The tallow trees are a vibrant red and a bright yellow, occasionally interspersed with touches of emerald green, set against the backdrop of the distant horse-head walls—every snapshot is wallpaper-worthy. Don't miss the bamboo rice at Mukeng Bamboo Sea at noon! The rice absorbs the aroma of bamboo and, paired with local side dishes, is so delicious you'll want to lick the bowl clean! In the afternoon, venture into the bamboo forest. The rustling sound of the wind through the bamboo is like white noise, and the dry bamboo leaves rustle underfoot. Climb to the top and you can even learn bamboo weaving, making your own little bamboo basket to take home—a truly meaningful souvenir. Day 3: The Cultural Romance of Xidi Ancient Village Autumn in Xidi exudes an inherent elegance! The morning sun shines obliquely on the horse-head walls, making the Hu Wenguang Prefectural Governor's Archway appear even more weathered against the blue sky, its stone carvings clearly visible. Be sure to stroll around slowly; the couplets on the lintels reveal the wisdom of ancient Huizhou: "Happiness often comes from hard work, and bargains often come from losses"—reading them brings a sense of enlightenment. In the afternoon, experience the intangible cultural heritage of rubbing. Make a rubbing of your favorite inscriptions and proverbs to take home—a meaningful souvenir. Before leaving, I stopped at a small shop next to the Xidi Agricultural Museum for a cup of Huangshan Maofeng tea. The aroma of the tea mingled with the fragrance of osmanthus, making for a perfect ending. 📸Photography Tips (Avoid Crowds for Great Photos) 1. Tachuan: Avoid the main viewing platform! Walk 500 meters towards Lucun, there's a less-visited spot with panoramic views of rice paddies, mangroves, and the ancient village—no one's vying for the camera. 2. Bishan: Take a photo of your back as you cycle along the rice paddy ridge, have your companion snap a side shot; the wind lifting your clothes creates an amazing atmosphere. Also, take a photo of yourself reading by the window on the second floor of the Bishan Bookstore—it's incredibly artistic. 3. Xidi: Arrive at the village entrance before 7 am. The sunlight is soft, there are no tour groups, and the light and shadow on the horse-head walls are superb. Sit down on the stone steps by the Moon Pond for a half-body photo; the white walls and gray tiles as a backdrop create a sophisticated look. 4. Bonus Props: Bring a light-colored scarf, a straw hat, or buy a local oil-paper umbrella for extra Huizhou charm in your photos. 🍜 Foodie Must-Try List (Avoid Pitfalls) - Must-Try Soul: Fangxin Yu Mao Tofu. Pan-fried until crispy, dipped in chili sauce, its texture is as smooth as cheese. Even if you're hesitant, go for it! - Main Dish: Stinky Mandarin Fish is a must! It smells slightly pungent but tastes incredibly delicious. The fish meat is firm and shaped like garlic cloves. I recommend Sanweitang; authentic and a safe bet. - Snack Collection: Xiu Sao's Tart Cake with preserved mustard greens filling—crispy on the outside; Huangshan Sesame Cake—buy freshly baked, savory and crumbly, perfect as a souvenir. - Avoid Pitfalls: Don't buy overpriced "trendy snacks" at the entrance of tourist attractions. Follow locals to the small shops in the alleys; the food is authentic and inexpensive. 💡Practical Tips (Tested and Useful) 1. Transportation: Driving is recommended, or take the direct shuttle bus from Huangshan North Station. The attractions in Huizhou are scattered, and public transportation is not very convenient. 2. Clothing: Temperatures vary greatly in the mountains. Wear a light down jacket and a base layer for easy layering. Light-colored and earth-toned clothing will blend better into the autumn scenery for photos. 3. Accommodation: Prioritize accommodation near Yixian or Xidi. It's convenient for travel, and you can experience Huizhou-style guesthouses, falling asleep to the sound of the mountain breeze at night – incredibly comfortable. 4. Best Time to Visit: Early November. The red leaves in Tachuan are at their peak, and the rice paddies haven't been harvested yet. Don't miss it, or you'll have to wait another year! Autumn in Huizhou is both a picturesque landscape and a vibrant, everyday life. Here, you don't need to rush. Just slow down, see the red trees painted with autumn frost, hear the bamboo forest rustling in the wind, and taste authentic Huizhou cuisine. You'll understand why Tang Xianzu was so captivated by it.
