Furong Ancient Town, located in western Hunan Province, is a stunning water town known for its dramatic Furong Waterfall that flows through the town, creating a unique and picturesque setting. The town showcases traditional Tujia ethnic architecture, especially the iconic wooden stilt houses. With a history of over 2,000 years, Furong also gained fame as the filming location for the Chinese movie Hibiscus Town. Visitors can explore cultural sites like Tusi Square, ancient bronze pillars, and enjoy local food and crafts along cobblestone streets. The best time to visit is from April to October when the waterfall is at its fullest. Furong is accessible by bus from Zhangjiajie, making it a perfect blend of natural beauty and ethnic culture for travelers.
