Unknowingly, I also visited a lot of ancient villages in Anhui, but I can’t tell you which ones I’ve been to at once.
I just compiled a list. How many have you been to?
There are some places that many people have heard of even though they have never been there, but there are some places that very few people have heard of.
It is the most famous ancient village in Anhui. The famous movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was filmed here.
The entire village is shaped like a cow and has a very special design.
Walking along the water, you can find many surprises in Hongcun. Maybe you will meet the academy, or maybe you will meet the "folk museum" Chengzhi Hall.
Such a clever place, you must follow the explanation to understand it.
By the way, the performance of "Ah Ju" in the evening is very exciting. Remember to go and see it. This performance will take you to understand Hongcun from ancient times to the present.
A leftover gem of the ancient village, there are more than 300 ancient houses and 72 ancient alleys in this small place, making you feel like you are walking through a maze.
There are almost no commercial things here, just stroll around the old houses with an ancestral hall within a few steps.
There are very few tourists here, so the surroundings are very quiet, and you can hear your own footsteps.
The highest-spec horse-head wall, the designed courtyard, the representative "leaf-shaped windows, the exquisite wood and brick carvings and the century-old embroidered building are all worth seeing in Xidi. At night, there is also a water curtain
Movies and musical fountains are worth checking out. What makes it different from other ancient towns is that it has a wide layout. The old houses and new houses in the ancient town are mixed together. From the century-old ferry to the opposite side, you can also see the cute finless porpoises.
. It is a very low-key ancient town, with few places lit up at night. During the day, there are occasionally students sketching there. There is a stone bridge in front of it, with smoke beside it and floating clouds in the distance, giving it an unearthly feeling.
It is worth mentioning that the prices here are very impressive. Half a rice cake costs 8 yuan and is bigger than a human face! The ancient city of Huizhou is located in She County, Anhui Province, where the Huizhou Prefecture is located. There is the only eight-legged archway in the country - Xu Guo Shifang.
, known as the "Oriental Arc de Triomphe". Here you can also meet the Internet celebrity stinky tofu guy, who has been on a TV show. It is very pleasant to visit the ancient city while eating stinky tofu. This is my favorite place in Shexian.
In an ancient village, the houses here are arranged one on top of another, as neatly arranged as fish scales. Some houses are hundreds of years old but intact, while others are dilapidated. There are some villagers sitting at the entrance of the village who will actively serve as guides.
, it’s 30 yuan a time. It’s safer to ask for one if you don’t know the way, otherwise it’s easy to get lost. The story of this ancient cultural village has been spread since the Eastern Han Dynasty. There are several archways in the village, and the stories behind each archway are fascinating.
Photographers couldn't help but praise the scenery on the double-hole stone pier wooden bridge across the river. This is a man-made ancient town in Wuhu, Anhui. It was built by moving old houses from many places.
The ancient town took a lot of time to build. It is a good place for locals to relax. There are really good B&Bs there. If you have the opportunity, you can go to the famous ancient village in Anqing, Anhui, in addition to local and nearby places.
, probably only some experienced in-depth travel/niche travel agencies or clubs know about such a village. There are not many people living in the village now, but the more than 20 old houses are still quite intact along the river.
There is a famous suspension bridge in the upper reaches of the waterfall, and the air is very fresh. In Anqing, an ancient village that has not yet been fully developed, there is no point to collect tickets, and there are no guides waiting to be called at any time. You can go directly to Longquan at the door.
For drinking, many houses in the village are connected to each other. It is a favorite village of Tongling people. It was only included in the list of traditional Chinese villages in the third batch. There is also a beautiful house on the mountain that was recorded in the previous program.
It was built in 1979, and one of the builders was Wu Yanzu. Therefore, although this ancient village is low-key, it is still somewhat famous. It is also a man-made ancient town in Tongling, Anhui. It is still under construction and only accepts individual tourists.
The construction is good, and many intangible cultural heritage people have taken root here. The exhibition halls are scattered in every corner of the ancient town, which is quite interesting. The irregular moat and square city wall are its major features at night.
, the scene of the lanterns lighting up is beautiful. Now it has become a favorite place for citizens. It is normal to go shopping here with friends on weekends and eat some delicious food.
Nanxi Ancient Village is located in Chizhou, which is the last Xiongnu tribe in the mountains. Most of the people in the village are descendants of the Xiongnu.
The people in the village are very hospitable and will invite you into their homes. Any house may be an old house with a story.
If you're lucky, you can even see the barber shaving people's heads in a very primitive way.
