If you’re heading to Huangshan, don’t just climb the famous mountain. Staying in one of the nearby villages is well worth considering. Let’s say you stay in Hongcun...

Before sunrise, take a stroll around the village wetlands and watch mist curl around the distant mountains.

In the morning, wander through Hongcun Village. You will find classic Anhui architecture, featuring white walls and grey tiled roofs.

For a coffee break, take a Didi to Bishan Village. This laid-back village is home to cozy cafés and creative handmade craft shops. Visitors can try making a traditional fish lantern.

When night falls, Hongcun and Xiuli Village next door host fantastic fish lantern parades. You can join the local procession, carry your glowing fish lantern, and wander through winding ancient alleyways.
