Yaoli Ancient Town Landscape Quiet Tour

Yao Li is one of the beautiful scenic spots in Fuliang. The most attractive thing is its well-preserved antique wooden buildings, coupled with the quiet rivers and lakes and green mountains and forests, bringing out a strong Chinese cultural atmosphere. In addition to strolling through ancient towns, there are also waterfront scenery and small shops. Slow down and feel the slow life. Especially for those of you who want to escape the city and experience the history and culture of the floating beam in depth!

Afterwards, you can walk towards the water's edge, enjoy the reflection of the ancient buildings on the water, and feel the tranquility surrounded by the mountains and forests. Walk further towards the Yaoli Scenic Area (located on Provincial Road 205) to further explore the panoramic view of the ancient village.
