I prefer this small Jiangnan place in southern Anhui to Suzhou and Hangzhou.

😍Tongling actually hides such a niche ancient town!

This place is completely different from the crowded Suzhou and Hangzhou scenic spots, it is very quiet! 😃 And the transportation is super convenient, with direct access by high-speed rail and natural hot springs! 😎

📍Yongquan Town, Tongling City, Anhui Province 🚗Self-driving from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, 3 hours from Hangzhou, just get off the highway 🚄Go to Tongling North Station, 15 minutes by taxi from the exit 🅿️There are plenty of parking spaces and charging piles at the entrance!

1⃣️Remembering the 12 Scenes of Jiangnan, walking along the valley, the scenery is amazing! 😲The gurgling water, ancient trees and covered bridges make you feel like you are walking into a paradise! There are also ladders and glass slides, so much fun! 😜It’s like being cast under a spell at night, it’s so beautiful!
2⃣️Jiubao Hot Spring, a natural hot spring at the foot of the mountain, is rich in minerals. Take a dip and all the fatigue from climbing will go away!
3⃣️The taste of Jiangnan, go back to ancient times in a second, use copper coins to eat, don’t miss the lobster and home-brewed beer in summer, and there will be a bonfire party at night!
4⃣️Wander in the town, where you will see pavilions and Jiangnan buildings everywhere. You can enjoy lotus flowers and red spider lilies in summer and autumn in autumn!

📝Note tips:
1⃣️The scenery during the day and at night has its own characteristics, you have to see them both!
2⃣️If you live in a small town, you can make an appointment for free pick-up at the high-speed rail station, which is convenient! 3⃣️The town is pet-friendly, you can bring your furry children to play together!

If you are tired of crowded scenic spots, come to Yongquan Town to spend a relaxing weekend! 😉
