Huangling Village is located in the northeastern part of Wuyuan County in Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province. It features classic Hui-style architecture, which is a prominent style in ancient Chinese architectural heritage predominantly found in the historical Huizhou prefecture of Anhui. This village boasts a history of nearly six centuries as a traditional Hui-style settlement.

Huangling is a typical mountain village with residential buildings arranged in a fan-shaped, terraced layout around a water source. It is surrounded by thousands of ancient trees and enveloped by vast terraced fields.
