Encounter the most beautiful rural ink-wash Wuyuan dream, admire the sea of rapeseed flowers, and explore the ancient Huizhou paradise.


Dream back to Wuyuan: A travel guide to falling into an ink-wash painting

If there is a place that perfectly interprets "earthly fireworks" and "a paradise on earth," it must be Wuyuan. This land favored by the gods offers scenic views in all seasons, with picturesque scenes at every step. This guide will help you unlock its most beautiful experiences.

Best seasons: Both seasons are enchanting

· Spring (March-April): This is Wuyuan’s peak beauty! The vast terraced fields of rapeseed flowers in Jiangling and Huangling bloom freely, with golden seas of flowers contrasting against the white walls and black tiles of Huizhou-style residences, creating a magnificent spring epic.
· Autumn (October-November): The maple leaves turn red, morning mist rises, and every household begins "sun-drying" their harvest. Huangling ancient village becomes a palette of colors—fiery red chili peppers, golden chrysanthemums, orange pumpkins... painting the most poetic autumn in China.

Must-visit attractions: Highlights not to be missed

1. Huangling: The origin of the "sun-drying" culture. Take the cable car up the mountain to overlook the entire mountain village and experience the wonder of "no three feet of flat land." Every corner, from the ancient Tianjie alley, Leixin Bridge, to the strange houses, is worth exploring.
2. Jiangling: One of China’s four great flower seas. This is the top spot to admire the terraced rapeseed flowers. From the mountaintop viewing platform, layers of golden fields stretch as far as the eye can see—truly breathtaking.
3. Likeng: A model of "small bridges, flowing water, and homes." A small creek runs through the village, flanked by ancient Huizhou-style buildings, stone paths, wooden bridges, and tea pavilions, full of a peaceful and tranquil lifestyle.
4. Moon Bay: An excellent photography spot. A narrow island lies quietly in the water like a crescent moon. When morning mist drifts, fishermen row boats on it, creating a fairyland scene.

Travel tips:

· Transportation: It is recommended to drive or charter a car for flexible travel between scattered attractions.
· Accommodation: Experience a homestay converted from an ancient Huizhou residence and feel the tranquility of a century-old time.
· Food: Must-try local Huizhou dishes such as fermented tofu, steamed red carp in lotus leaf, and steamed pork, savoring the flavors of Wuyuan.

The beauty of Wuyuan is not in a single spot but in every pause along the way. Slow down, listen to the sound of the streams, feel the gentle breeze, and let yourself be completely immersed in this vast ink-wash painting.

Set off now, Wuyuan is waiting for you.
