"When you know the face of the east wind, you will see the vibrant colors of spring."
Romantic spring is approaching, marking the perfect time for flower lovers! The dazzling Nyingchi peach blossoms, the pure Danba pear blossoms...these blossoms are dazzling, but the most unforgettable sight in Jiangnan spring is undoubtedly the "little yellow flower."

"The weather is always suitable, morning and evening are always suitable"
Every March, with the blessing of this "little yellow flower", Wuyuan must be on the list of the best travel destinations in spring!
In March, the daytime temperature here is around 18℃, with a small temperature difference between day and night. The flower fields are dazzlingly golden on sunny days, while they are shrouded in clouds and mist when it rains or fogs. The ink-and-wash painting of Jiangnan can only be found here.
Of course! Getting to Wuyuan is also very convenient. The high-speed train from Hangzhou takes just 2 hours to reach Wuyuan Station. Spend a weekend, or even a day, to experience this classic flower spectacle!

"National Geographic China certified! Wuyuan - China's most beautiful village"
Among the "Six Most Beautiful Villages in China" selected by "National Geographic China", Wuyuan is one of them, and it has also become synonymous with "beautiful countryside".
Today, Wuyuan County, located in Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province, borders Huangshan Mountain in Anhui Province and was one of the six counties within the ancient Huizhou Prefecture. Similar to southern Anhui, Wuyuan boasts numerous ancient villages with picturesque countryside, featuring whitewashed walls and black tiles, flowing water, and small bridges.
"In Wuyuan, you can see terraced fields, sea of flowers, and ancient villages of Huiyun all at once."
Friends who have never been to Wuyuan often think that Wuyuan is a large scenic area. In fact, it is a county under the jurisdiction of Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province.

The 100,000 mu terraced rapeseed fields in Jiangling, the pear blossom rain in Jiangwan, the "small bridges, flowing water, and houses" in Likeng, and the white walls, black tiles, and horse-head walls that have been steeped in history are all perfectly integrated here.
Wuyuan has many scattered scenic spots, which are divided into the East Line, North Line and West Line according to the travel routes. Don't be greedy. It is impossible to visit Wuyuan in one go. Just choose the key attractions.
The east line is a traditional classic tourist route with a concentration of ancient buildings. Many treasure villages that are more suitable for checking in in spring are distributed here. It is also the place where rapeseed flowers are the most beautiful and dense.

The northern route combines ancient villages with natural beauty.
The western line was the latest to be developed and is the least popular. It is less crowded and quieter. If you like to check in on niche routes, you can try to explore it!
Even though there are rape flowers everywhere, the rape flowers in different parts of Wuyuan have their own highlights. Today, Xiaoxia will talk to you about the highlights of the Wuyuan East Line and North Line.
Major scenic spots: Likeng, Moon Bay, Wangkou, Jiangwan, Xiaoqi, Jiangling, Huangling, Qingyuan
"100,000 mu of rapeseed flowers"
Here is Wuyuan's most spectacular rapeseed terraced fields and the most beautiful mountain pastoral scenery.
The layers of rapeseed fields are staggered in height, spreading from the top of a mountain a thousand meters above sea level to the bottom of the valley.
Distant mountains, mist, yellow flowers, green trees, black tiles and white walls are interspersed. This is not only the first choice for a spring outing in Wuyuan, but also a world-class photography base that countless people yearn for.
"Ancient Huizhou Village on the Cliff Mountain"
Huangling is famous for its autumn drying, but spring in Huangling offers many exciting reasons. Huangling boasts the longest rapeseed blossom season in Wuyuan. The plains below the mountain begin to bloom in February, and the mountain terraces continue their golden splendor until mid-April.

From the blooming red plum blossoms to the pink peach and white pear blossoms, every corner of this ancient Huizhou village hanging on the cliff hides spring surprises.
What's even more special about Huangling is the high-altitude flower viewing experience! Climb the glass plank road and experience the breathtaking aerial view of the vast expanse of terraced fields. Spend the night in Tianjie, gazing down at the breathtaking beauty of the ancient village terraces at dawn.
"A Little Paradise with 1,300 Years of History"
Qingyuan Village is an ancient village with a history of more than 1,300 years. It is located in a deep canyon on the top of thousands of mountains, blocking the outside world and overflowing the inside. It is a place chosen by our ancestors to escape from chaos and is known as the "Little Utopia".
There is only a winding mountain road leading to the ancient village, which has retained many of its original ecological features. Most of the visitors are artists who come here for photography and sketching.
Every spring, peach and pear blossoms bloom by the river. Outside the village, the quiet valley is covered with golden rapeseed flowers.
Major attractions: Likeng, Wolong Valley, Lingyan Cave, Rainbow Bridge, Hong Village, Sixiyan Village
"The largest flower sea on the northern line"
Crescent Bay is located on the riverside road of Tuokou Village on the northern line of Wuyuan. There is a crescent-shaped peninsula in the winding and clear river. On the riverside is a 200-acre rapeseed field, which is also the largest sea of flowers on the northern line of Wuyuan.
Unlike the magnificent terraced fields in Jiangling, the terrain here is relatively flat, and there is a small bench bridge. After crossing the bridge, there is a quiet tea garden with dozens of peach trees among the tea gardens.
Whether you are shooting from the tea garden across from Bandeng Bridge or taking aerial photos, the rapeseed flowers and the ancient village are very photogenic!
"Ancient tower standing alone in a flower field"
Fengshan Longtian Tower, located in Fengshan Village, Zheyuan Township in the north, was built during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. Iron wind chimes are hung on the eaves of each floor. Whenever the wind blows, the chimes ring pleasantly.
The Longtian Tower stands beside the Zhejiang River at the entrance of the village, with a large rapeseed field in front of it. It is a classic check-in point on the northern line of Wuyuan.
The quaint pagoda stands in the golden sea of rapeseed flowers, like an elegant girl. Climbing the tower and looking into the distance, you can overlook the magnificent sea of rapeseed flowers.
"Ode to Joy" filming location
Zhang Village is the filming location of "Ode to Joy". It is also the place where Mr. Bao and Andy relax in the play. When you come here, you can't help but sigh "Mr. Bao is so romantic."
There is a large rapeseed field at the entrance of the village. The essence of this place is the quiet river behind the village, the green lawn and the longest wooden bridge in Wuyuan. It is really difficult to appreciate this beauty without going deep into it.
Zhang Village is backed by mountains and faces the water. The village is integrated with the natural landscape, with black, white, yellow and green alternating between them, giving people a simple and elegant beauty.
"A hidden and niche rural countryside"
Guankeng Ancient Village is one of the beautiful villages in Wuyuan. It is adjacent to the beautiful mountains and lakes, and is connected to the beautiful Jiangling scenery. The whole village is surrounded by primeval forests and appears to be particularly quiet and comfortable.
The ancient bluestone path paved along the river in the village is now a favorite among hikers. After every morning rain, the rolling mountain ridges, covered with clouds and mist, cascade down, and everyone who walks among them is shocked by the beautiful scenery before their eyes.
"A Landscape Gallery Full of Spring"
The winding river bank is lined with golden rapeseed flowers in light yellow and tender green, with orioles singing and swallows flying around. The Xin'an River, which is more tranquil than Wuyuan, connects one secret flower field after another.

In Shitan Village, a photographer's favorite, seas of clouds and flowers are common sights in March. The peach blossoms in Xiong Village are gorgeous, and the dormant Yangchan Tulou are also awakening in the spring.
Here you can hike, cycle or take a boat tour, experience the flowers in different dimensions and feel the different spring atmosphere.

"Village in the Sea of Clouds"
Mulihu, hidden in the sea of clouds, has gradually become known to people. The misty sea of clouds in the early morning and the sunset in the evening are beautiful views of the clouds that cannot be missed and can only be seen by living in the mountains.
Our tourists are staying at the Old Village Chief's B&B, which has the best viewing platform in the village. The beautiful scenery that can be seen from the window, the fresh fragrance of dried bamboo shoots in the clouds, and the large fields of rapeseed flowers scattered in the mountains are a limited private experience only available in spring.
"A place where fish are raised in spring water"
About five or six kilometers away from Muli, there is a peach-shaped sandbar. From the perspective of a drone, there are two lifelike spring fish in the middle of the rapeseed field surrounded by jade water.
If you have enough time, you can follow the trail to the top of the tea mountain in the north and overlook it. The fragrance of flowers is refreshing and pleasant. We will start hiking from here, along the Huirao Ancient Road, to deeply experience the reverie and romance brought by the spring scenery of Huizhou.
There are countless reasons to get out and about in spring, but why not Wuyuan? Spend a weekend in this place where rapeseed flowers bloom, relax, let go of your worries, and find the spring of your memories amidst the sea of flowers.
