Visiting mountain villages around Songyang

Songyang is a county in Zhejiang province, located in the southeast part of China. It is home to several traditional mountain villages that have preserved their historical architecture and way of life.

Our visit to these villages was a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the region. The villages are nestled in the mountains and surrounded by lush greenery, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. We spent our time walking around the narrow streets and alleys, admiring the traditional houses and buildings made of wood and stone.

One of the most impressive villages we visited was Tashi, known for its unique architecture and stunning scenery. The village is situated on a hillside and has a distinct layout, with buildings built into the slope of the hill. We also visited Gaojiabao, a village known for its traditional paper-making techniques that date back to the Ming Dynasty.

Other notable villages include Nianbadu, known for its rice terraces and water-powered mills, and Wencheng, known for its impressive ancestral halls and temples.

Overall, our visit to the traditional mountain villages around Songyang was a memorable experience that offered a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the region. We highly recommend a visit to anyone interested in exploring the history and architecture of China's rural communities.
