Jing County Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Chaqi Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Zhaji Ancient Town is nestled among the landscapes of mountains and waters
Jiangnan is known for its numerous water towns, and Zhaji Ancient Town also possesses the gentle characteristics of a southern ancient town, with small bridges over flowing water. Taking a leisurely stroll on the village paths is a moment of tranquility away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Taohua Tan, the Peach Blossom Pool, is the very one from Li Bai's poem 'A Farewell to Secretary Wang on My Way to Huazhou,' where he wrote 'Though the Peach Blossom Pool is a thousand feet deep, it can't compare to Wang's kindness in seeing me off.' Surrounded by green mountains, clear waters, ancient architecture, and the vast blue sky, it forms a unique landscape painting.

Chaji Ancient Town
A relatively lesser-known ancient village, it's not as famous as Hongcun, but the scenery is nice. There aren't too many tourists, and it's quite small; you can finish touring it in half a day. There are small taverns, coffee shops, Ancient Tea Milk Tea, and Shanghai Auntie. You can visit it along with nearby Taohua Tan. Transportation is not very convenient; you take the high-speed train to Jing County Station, and then you have to take a bus for an hour and a half. It is recommended to drive there.

Chazhi Art Museum: Zeng Laide's Calligraphy and Painting Art Exhibition
Chazhi ancient village, although just a small village under the jurisdiction of Taohuatan Town, exudes cultural atmosphere everywhere. With its typical Hui-style architectural complexes, white walls and black tiles, and ink and wash paintings, Chazhi presents a different splendor every day, making it the prime choice for art enthusiasts to sketch from life. Many well-known painters choose to settle in Chazhi, hence it is also known as 'Anhui Artists' Village'. At the entrance of the village, there is a Chazhi Art Museum, where calligraphy and painting exhibitions are held continuously. 'Zeng Laide's Calligraphy and Painting Art Exhibition' is on display, so I went in to appreciate it.
Zeng Laide, from Pengxi, Sichuan. He is a national first-class artist, the vice president of China National Academy of Painting, and the executive dean of the Calligraphy and Seal Engraving Academy. He has published works such as 'Zeng Laide Calligraphy Collection', 'Zeng Laide Modern Calligraphy Works', 'Writing Endless Books', 'The Stance of Calligraphy', 'Reason in Vertical and Horizontal - Zeng Laide's Anthology', 'The Poetry of Calligraphy, The Poetry of Ink and Water', and other monographs.

Taohuatan (“Peach Blossom Pool”) Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Strolling around Taohuatan
Taohuatan, a section of the upper reaches of the Qingyi River, a tributary of the Yangtze River, is a historic place of interest. It is located between Zhai and Wan'er villages in Taohuatan Town, 40 kilometers west of Jing County, Anhui Province.
The waters of Taohuatan are deep and emerald green, clear and sparkling, with the reflection of green hills, blending the beauty of mountains and rivers, especially enchanting. The Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai made the pond famous with his poem 'A Gift to Wang Lun', turning it into a historic site of interest.

Explore Anhui Xuancheng, sing the song of poetry and distance with Li Bai!🌟🍜🏯

Traveling through the picturesque southern Anhui, the Peach Blossom Pool in Tang poetry!
"The clouds will eventually disperse" is the most appropriate description of my trip to southern Anhui. The thick fog may have made me miss the beautiful scenery along the way. But when I arrived at my destination, Peach Blossom Pool, the noon sun had already dispersed the fog. The Peach Blossom Pool, a thousand feet deep in the poet Li Bai's writing, was clearly presented before me.
Located in Jing County, Anhui Province, Peach Blossom Pool. It was here that the poet Li Bai, at the invitation of his friend Wang Lun, visited and left the poem "To Wang Lun", which is about friendship and has been passed down to this day. "Li Bai is about to sail, suddenly hears a song on the shore. The water of Peach Blossom Pool is a thousand feet deep, but it's not as deep as the love Wang Lun has for me."
Walking to the ferry of Peach Blossom Pool, you can encounter the ancient tower in Wenchang Pavilion and the first ancestral hall in the world, Zhai's Chinese Ancestral Hall. Walking through the ancient village of a thousand years, you can also meet craftsmen who are doing traditional bamboo weaving on the old street. Strolling in the well-preserved traditional village of southern Anhui, you will unconsciously come to the Song Tower, where you can overlook the ferry where Li Bai left by boat.
Taking a boat to the west bank of Peach Blossom Pool, the Wanjia Hotel here is one of the places where Wang Lun and Li Bai met. Wang Lun also told Li Bai that the so-called "Wanjia" Hotel was just a name. But as long as there is friendship, who needs the so-called "Wanjia" Hotel? The beautiful Peach Blossom Pool is not only a witness to the friendship between Li Bai and Wang Lun, but also the place where Wang Lun chose to wait forever. Leaving Wang Lun's tomb, you can take a mountain path to overlook the entire Peach Blossom Pool.
Unfortunately, I came to Peach Blossom Pool in winter. The clear streams in the mountains flow into the water of Peach Blossom Pool, and the peach blossoms on both sides of the bank are invisible. When I left, I saw a sign on the side of the road that read, "A night of spring wind comes, and ten miles of peach blossoms bloom". The encounter with the more beautiful Peach Blossom Pool may be in a spring of a future year!

1. Yancheng Binhai County, Picture 1 to Picture 4
There are not as many people here as in the urban area of Yancheng, and there are not many attractions, but it is super suitable for self-driving tours. You can see the sea. Although it is a muddy beach, not a sandy beach, there is a lighthouse and a place for BBQ, which is very suitable for self-driving tours. The sunset view is really amazing. Then there is a famous pig's trotter wonton shop on the old street of Binhai, which is very delicious. Huaiyang Tower is also pretty good.
2. Xuancheng, Anhui, Picture 5 to Picture 9
I went there during the National Day holiday, and there were not too many people. You can spend two days in Chaji Ancient Town. The homestay I booked there is very beautiful. The ancient town is not big, but the scenery is amazing. It is very suitable for photo shoots and strolling. Chaji paste is a specialty, you can try it. There is a restaurant called Chaji Renjia which is quite delicious. The Shen Yin Coffee Shop is also a good place to sit. But Chaji Ancient Town is quite far from the station. I didn't plan my trip well, so I ended up taking a taxi for more than 100 kilometers.
You can also go to Taohuatan, but I didn't go, so I won't comment.
Jingting Mountain is quite low, you can climb up to see the sunrise. It takes half an hour to an hour to climb up, but you need to make a reservation in advance. There will be many elderly people climbing the mountain to exercise, and it's quite interesting to climb with them. The scenery is also quite beautiful.

Xuanzhi Culture Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
This must be the ceiling of museum architecture aesthetics
Before leaving Jing County, I checked in at the Xuan Paper Museum, a landmark building in Jing County that indeed brought surprises. It is not only a holy place for photography but also allows for an in-depth appreciation of the intangible cultural charm of 'paper longevity for a thousand years, ink charm for ten thousand years.' Such popular museums are beneficial in many ways.
The Xuan Paper Museum, built against the mountains, is located in the Xuan Paper Cultural Park. It was invested by the Hongxing Xuan Paper Factory, costing one hundred million, and the designer is Professor Yu Kongjian, who participated in the Water Cube project. It's another project where a master makes a move. As soon as you enter the museum, you step into a space soaked in Chinese aesthetics. Inspired by the shape of ancient books, the main body of the building is full of tension. Square grilles, through different angles, present the sequential sense of stacking paper, perfectly integrating with Chinese courtyards and Huizhou ancient architecture, as if creating a 'heaven outside heaven' of Xuan paper. Under the effect of light and shadow, walking among them is like a breeze flipping through pages of paper, inviting visitors to read the wordless history that has been passed down for a thousand years.
Everything has a spirit, and Xuan paper is one of them. It carries other people's stories and also shapes its own extraordinary.
'Light as cicada's wings, white as snow, fluttering like fine silk without a sound,' a sheet of Xuan paper requires carefully selected Shatian rice straw and Qingtan tree bark, polished through 108 processes to meet the standards of 'ink absorption, deformability, durability, and insect resistance.' The craft of papermaking is not achieved overnight, and it is said that just the paper lifting process takes three to five years to learn. No wonder it is said that Xuan paper embodies the principles of being human: 'There are no shortcuts to personal growth; one must go through hardships and see the world to strengthen muscles and grow talents.'
Xuan paper can be preserved for up to 1050 years. With it as a medium, countless precious ancient books and famous paintings have been passed down. In this light, Xuan paper, costing 1000 yuan per cut, is absolutely worth more than its price, and its title as a national treasure is well deserved. In the Xuan Paper Museum, you can not only converse with the architecture but also fully understand the traditional Xuan paper-making skills and even experience the production process of paper, ink, brush, inkstone, fan, and paper curtain. Unfortunately, the 'Three Zhang Three' giant Xuan production workshop is currently under maintenance and not open to the public. Not being able to thoroughly explore the Xuan Paper Cultural Park this time seems to be an unavoidable regret in every trip.
📮Address: G205, Langqiao Town, Xuancheng City (deep in the mountains)
⏰Business hours: 8:00-16:30
Tips: Free parking, tickets 60

Experience what's only found in textbooks
The rice paper museum was truly astonishing.
I was fortunate to witness dozens of people making rice paper on site, it was absolutely incredible.
Words cannot express.
I used to have little interest in such museums, thinking they weren't for me, hard to get into. This time, I've truly been schooled.

📚 Tips: Purchase tickets online in advance, only 88 yuan for a family of three, which is more cost-effective than buying tickets on-site. 💳
✅ Visitor Flow: This place is relatively niche, it is recommended to enter the park around 9 am when there are not many people and parking is ample. After 10 am, the number of visitors increases, but it is not overcrowded. 🕘
🈚 A Small Regret: Inside the three Zhang three Che workshop, there are only tools and space, no workers operating on-site, which is somewhat regrettable. 🛠️
🔗 Interactive Experience: In the experience hall, you can participate in papermaking, movable type printing, dabbing printing, thread-bound bookbinding, etc., with a fee of 30 yuan per person, especially suitable for family parent-child tours, children will love it. 💼
💪 Highly Recommended For:
Families who learn soft pen calligraphy and traditional Chinese painting, to understand the past and present of Xuan paper.
Photography enthusiasts, this place provides a beautiful backdrop, it is recommended to arrive early, dressed in traditional Chinese clothing, complementing the ink painting.
🚫 Discouraged For: It is not recommended to bring preschool children, as they may find it boring. 👶
⏳ Visiting Time: It is recommended to plan for about two hours.
🅿️ Parking Guide: Parking inside the park is quite convenient, there are many parking spaces available for visitors at the entrance, so there is no need to worry about parking. 🚗
This is a great place to understand the process of making Xuan paper and experience traditional handicrafts. Remember to plan your trip in advance, arrive early, and fully enjoy this cultural journey! 🎨📜🏞️

Xuan Paper Culture Park
Monochrome silhouette. Xuancheng.
Xuan paper is a unique Chinese handicraft, with the characteristics of soft texture, smooth as jade, non-moth-eaten, non-rotten, and ever-changing ink charm. It enjoys the reputation of "thousand-year longevity paper" and is known as a "national treasure". This Xuan Paper Culture Park in Xuancheng, Anhui is worth visiting.
1. Scenery: The overall white architecture, with soft curves and curved surfaces, layered and stacked, is very charming. There is a pool of clear water outdoors, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, a large sense of déjà vu.
2. Project: There are series introductions of Xuan paper and visits to the process of making Xuan paper in the museum. Especially, it is meaningful to print on Xuan paper with red ink pad as a souvenir.
3. Inheritance: Bring the children to have a look, walk around, take pictures, and spend an interesting weekend, which is both educational and entertaining.

This trip to ancient Huizhou has brought us to Maolin in Jing County
This trip to ancient Huizhou has brought us to Maolin in Jing County.
Maolin Xiuzhu, the name is indeed well chosen, and the people at the inn are nice too. I can pull out a plug to charge my electric bike, haha, better than any five-star hotel, just for this point alone.
Speaking of this inn, I arrived at night, and after a short drive through a winding mountain road, I reached the parking lot, which really gives the feeling of entering a dense forest, especially at night when you can only see the silhouettes of mountains or trees.
For dinner, I had two dishes, both very delicious, especially the greens.
I got up early in the morning and took a walk around. Some trees were left with only their bare branches, devoid of withered leaves, while others were lush and green. How to put it, the diversity of species explains it. The stream was flowing gently, and I could see the frost on the backs of the vegetable leaves, with some geothermal heat rising and creating a bit of mist, giving off a pastoral scenery vibe. Walking slowly on the mountain path is actually a very pleasant morning exercise.
Although I didn't encounter any snow, the rising temperature made for a more comfortable hiking experience.
Sometimes, looking at the houses, trees, bamboo, streams, and mountain paths in the mountains, I always feel like I'm experiencing a return to the ancient Jiangnan.

The exterior walls preserve the traditional residential appearance, and the old wooden doors record the marks of time. Paired with bright lights and dotted green plants, they create a warm and elegant environment.
The B&B features a multi-functional activity center, handicraft workshop, tea room, and bamboo structures, aiming to provide guests with a series of cultural experience activities based on the culture of southern Anhui.

During my stay, I happened to catch the activities during the Spring Festival. I took my family to participate in parent-child paper cutting and DIY small dragon lanterns, as well as parent-child lion dance and dumpling making. These activities not only made our family of three happy, but also made us deeply feel the charm of traditional culture. Especially the experience of writing couplets and sparklers, it is really an unforgettable memory.
The surrounding attractions are rich, Taohuatan Scenic Area, Chaji Ancient Town, Fobao Temple, etc. are all within self-driving range. I chose to go to Taohuatan Scenic Area and Chaji Ancient Town for a walk, strolling through the antique streets, feeling the accumulation of history and the traces of time.
