When I first heard of this town, my question was: How beautiful could it really be? Was it just promotional photos? ❓
But when I arrived, OMG 😳 it was beyond expectations. The scenery was absolutely real, with no photo editing at all.
📍 For those planning to visit Hongcun, I recommend coming during the lush green months after spring 🌿.
Before coming here, I learned that this town is a popular spot for art students to sketch. I wondered if I would actually see them, as the town is truly beautiful. And yes, by the afternoon, I saw groups of students sketching the scenery. It was incredibly picturesque.
The best time to take photos of this town is in the morning before the tour groups arrive, as the water's reflection captures everything beautifully.
