Jiangmen | Rainbow Village.

Jiangmen Rainbow Village is located at No. 128 Baishuidai Avenue, Jianghai District, Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province. Its original name was Hengkeng Village.
Its history can be traced back to many years ago. It was originally an ordinary village. In 2019, the local government implemented a micro-renovation project for the Hengkeng Economic Society, painting the residential buildings in vibrant colors such as yellow, orange, sky blue, and light green. The bold and artistic color scheme was like a colorful coat for the Hengkeng Economic Society. From a distance, it looks like a colorful oil painting, hence the name "Rainbow Village".
Travel Guide:
• Best time to visit: On sunny days, the colors are more vibrant and bright, making for better photos. However, it is important to avoid the midday heat in summer to prevent heatstroke. The morning or evening is a good time to visit when the light is softer.
• Transportation: Take bus No. 13 or 54 to Baishuidai Sports Park bus stop and walk to the village. If you are driving, there are parking lots nearby.
• Travel route: After entering Rainbow Village, you can walk along the colorful houses and admire the various creative graffiti and cartoon characters. Popular打卡 points include "Fengzhi Facai" (May You Be Rich), "Fengkao Bi Guo" (May You Pass All Your Exams), "Seven Colors Steps", and the Miyazaki Hayao Comic Wall. After visiting the village, if you have time, you can also visit the nearby Baishuidai Park, Busan Park, or walk on the Jianghai Cloud Road. From the Cloud Road, you can also overlook part of Rainbow Village.
• Photo tips: Wear white or light-colored clothes to create a sharp contrast with the colorful background, making you stand out. You can use different angles and props, such as posing on the painted steps or interacting with the cute graffiti walls, to add fun to your photos.
• Civilized travel: Rainbow Village is still home to many residents. Please do not make loud noises or disturb the residents' daily lives. When taking photos, do not enter the residents' private courtyards or climb the houses.
• Time management: The village is not very large, and you can basically visit it in 1-2 hours. You don't need to spend too much time, but if you want to visit nearby attractions as well, you need to set aside enough time.
