⛳Yongquan Town, Tongling
👉Another version of "The Wizard of Oz" in Anhui is hidden in this town where only copper coins are used. Tongling Yongquan Town is a magical place where all transactions are made with copper coins. The food here is sourced from nearby mountains—chickens are raised locally, vegetables are homegrown, oil is self-pressed, and meals are cooked by local villagers using traditional wood-fired stoves.
👉A Jiangnan paradise transformed from an abandoned mine, where Hui-style architecture flows with Anhui charm. Stroll through the "Jiangnan Flavors" food street, exchange copper coins for traditional snacks; soak in wellness hot springs, and wander through the forest's light show at night. This is a resort that bridges ancient and modern times.
