In Lishui City, located in the southwestern part of Zhejiang Province, there is a secluded small town that has been classical for 1800 years👉Songyang. It has been a county since the Han Dynasty and still retains more than 100 traditional ancient villages. Out of 365 days a year, there are 200 days shrouded in a fairy-like mist, reminiscent of the Peach Blossom Spring described by Tao Yuanming. It is also called 'the last secret land of Jiangnan' by National Geographic Magazine. Songyang·Lishui 🌟'The Golden Potala Palace'—Yangjiatang 📍Address: Yangjiatang Village, Sandu Township, Songyang County 🚗Transport: About a twenty-minute drive from Songyang county town, self-driving is recommended. The first half of the road is relatively wide, with a free public parking lot midway, and the latter half is narrower, with another free parking lot at the entrance of the village, but it is relatively smaller. During holidays, it can get very congested, so it is suggested to park in the first parking lot. If you're lucky, you might unlock an NPC with a tricycle to take you into the village. 🌟'The Internet-famous village above the cliff'—Chenjiapu 📍Address: Chenjiapu Village, Sidu Township, Songyang County 🚗Transport: More than 30 kilometers from Songyang County, self-driving is recommended. The whole journey is mountainous, and it is also very congested during holidays. It is not recommended to drive directly to the entrance of Chenjiapu Village. You can park midway and walk, enjoying the terraced fields along the way, which is also a pleasure.
