The Prelude to the Huangling Autumn Drying Culture Festival

🍁 Deep nostalgia, savoring the warmth of memories

🍂 Huangling Ancient Village is known as the "Most Beautiful Nostalgia Experience Place," where a century of time has left a strong mark of nostalgia. Under the old tree in the ancestral hall square, village girls raise their cups to welcome the door-blocking wine, vegetable farmers push fresh melons and fruits, setting up a fun booth of "You answer questions, I give vegetables." Not far away, the members' meeting starts lively, with voices and laughter rising one after another. Autumn drying performances take turns on stage, fully displaying the joy of harvest in the flow of autumn charm and colors.
🍕 Scattered throughout the ancient village, nostalgic snacks preserve the sweetest memories of Huangling people. The fried rice cakes at Zhongwu Square are crispy outside and glutinous inside, with radish filling that is fresh and juicy. One bite fills the heart instantly with satisfaction; the rice slice candy at Liushuntang is crispy, fragrant, and sweet, wrapped in the rich aroma of fried rice, malt, and sesame; in the corner of the ancestral hall square, maltose candy, popcorn, and popcorn cones warmly invite you to freely taste this sweet gift from the ancient village.

🍁 Autumn food festival by the mountain, opening an autumn date for the palate and dwelling
🍚 Huangling Tianjie Restaurant crafts a unique dish for autumn—the Autumn Drying Banquet. Fresh and fragrant farm ingredients are sourced from local plantations, with the taste of harvest slowly blooming on the tongue. The colors are enticing, the flavors rich, showcasing both the hardworking wisdom of the Huangling people and their sincere tribute to nature’s generous gifts.
🏠 If you want to immerse yourself in Huangling during the Autumn Drying Festival, consider staying at Huangling’s beautiful lodgings.
