A treasure trove of rapeseed flowers, hidden in Anhui's Shangri-La
📷 When spring comes, I think of Huizhou!❗ (Anhui's off-the-beaten-path spring viewing🎈)
The most beautiful spring in the south of the Yangtze River🌸 must be in Anhui!😍
In the sunny March, the bright yellow rapeseed flowers seem to climb over every corner of Huizhou overnight.🤩
👀 Wherever the spring light reaches, there is endless tenderness.🥰
📌 8 hidden Anhui treasure spots for enjoying rapeseed flowers, no need to squeeze with the crowds in Wuyuan anymore~😜
📆 Rapeseed flowering period: March - April
1️⃣ Xin'an River Landscape Gallery Rapeseed Flowers
📍 Address: Shendu Town, Shexian County, Huangshan City
💐 Stretching about a hundred miles, it is a base for Anhui photography enthusiasts. To see the rapeseed flowers here, it is recommended to take a boat tour first.
In the early morning, when the sun has just risen, take advantage of the sunlight just spreading over the river, travel on a black-awning boat on the river, follow the river, with ancient villages scattered along the riverbank, rapeseed flowers appearing and disappearing, women washing clothes by the river, children playing on the shore, and chickens and ducks running around, everything is so leisurely, what a pastoral landscape painting!🖼
When the black-awning boat docks at Zhangtan, the scenery that comes into view suddenly changes into another painting, a sea of golden rapeseed flowers in front of you🌼...
2️⃣ Jiapeng Terraced Rapeseed Flowers

4️⃣ Fushan Xiangshuijian Rapeseed Flowers
📍 Address: Eqiao Town, Sanshan District, Wuhu City
😍 It can rival the rapeseed fields of Wuyuan in Jiangxi, with more than 100,000 acres of rapeseed flowers, covering the sky and the earth. When the spring breeze blows, this sea of flowers surges like waves, overwhelming and fragrant.
5️⃣ Gufeng High Mountain Terraced Rapeseed Flowers
📍 Address: Changqiao Township, Shexian County, Huangshan City
For thousands of years, the villagers here have painstakingly cultivated thousands of acres of terraced fields at an altitude of nearly 800 meters. Every year in sunny March, thousands of acres of rapeseed flowers are splendid, set against the backdrop of layers of mountain forests, quite spectacular.🤩
6️⃣ Qiyun Mountain Rapeseed Flowers
📍 Address: Xiuning County, Huangshan City
🤩 This place is truly beautiful with few people, with attractions like Xianglu Peak, Shiqiao Rock, Xian Cave, Yunyan Lake, and Zhulian Spring all very appealing.
Around the Qingming Festival, looking down from Qiyun Mountain, one sees a sea of golden yellow, as if forming a continuous mirror.😍
7️⃣ Xuke Village Rapeseed Flowers
📍 Address: Yi County, Huangshan City
🤩 A hidden gem in the deep mountains, with vast fields of rapeseed flowers and scattered village houses.
Every spring, many photography enthusiasts come here to take pictures. In the early morning or after a fresh rain, sometimes you can see a dreamy scene with misty clouds.🌈

Xin'an River Landscape Gallery
Xin'an River Landscape Gallery, a must-go for self-driving tours in Huangshan City, where you can also experience the fun of boarding by boat. The scenery is naturally unspeakable, especially beautiful, and it's worth going.
Self-driving route:
Start navigation to Xin'an River Landscape Gallery Visitor Center, set two waypoints, the first is Nanyuankou Village, and the second is Zicheng, as P1.
Starting from Nanyuankou Village, keep driving deep along the river, you can see the sign of Huizhe No.1 Tourist Scenic Route.
There are many people fishing along the way, and there are many parking check-in points where you can stop and take pictures. There are also many public toilets. There are many villages along the way, the scenery is particularly beautiful, and I was so busy looking at the scenery along the way that I didn't have time to take pictures or stop and look slowly.
This road is a mountain road, with great ups and downs, and the road is relatively narrow. There are also oncoming cars, it is recommended that drivers with longer driving years drive, and novices drive carefully.
When you get to the vicinity of the Xin'an River Visitor Center, many surrounding shopkeepers or stall-holding grandmothers will come up to sell, especially hard to entangle, and their appearance is very ugly. It is recommended that if you don't really want to buy something, don't care!!!
What can you buy in Xin'an River
Loquat syrup and loquat honey. The villages along the way are rich in loquats, and there are many loquat trees on the mountain. Many farmers' homes also post notices that can be purchased. There is also an e-commerce center near the government office, which should be specifically for export. We didn't stop to buy at that time, thinking that there would be more later, but as a result, no one sold it near the Xin'an River Landscape Gallery Visitor Center, which is a pity. Interested friends can stop by the roadside to inquire, you can bargain!!! When shopping in Huangshan, you can always bargain!!!
Xin'an River Boat Strategy
①You can buy Xin'an River 100+ boat tickets, there is one in the morning and afternoon, you can sit to the opposite bank to the opposite village. I personally feel that the ticket price is a bit high, self-driving can already see the good scenery, and the time is also tight, so I didn't consider it this time. Interested friends can search for other strategies to see the schedule and time

The hidden village, the hidden Jiangnan | Shexian County, Anhui
A two-day budget tour of Shexian County, Anhui is absolutely worth it.
Shexian County, Anhui, is a treasure trove for those who like to go to the village to see the mountains and waters. I like Shexian County so much that I plan to come again next time.
1⃣️Yangchan Tulou, the parking lot charges 10 yuan, the scenic area bus is 30 yuan per person, and there is no need for the aunt in the village to be a tour guide for 20 yuan, just refuse. If you like Tulou, you can take a look, it's almost the same as Songyang in Lishui. Passing through a super original village, the grass carp is swimming on the water surface, and there are no fishing guys.
Then I went to Yuliang Dam, looked at the grassland by the water at dusk, the cows eating grass, strolled around Yuliang Village, it was very comfortable and beautiful.
I stayed in Huizhou Ancient City at night, with various snacks, one for each.
2⃣️I got up at more than 5 o'clock in the morning to go to the viewing platform of Xiatai Village to see the sea of clouds, but unfortunately there was only a little bit, and I took some wild flowers on the top of the mountain. It was quite interesting. It was very painful to be bitten by a small bug on my leg.
Then I went down the mountain to Shitan Village, a paradise for photography, a gathering place for old masters, and I still like the delicate Huizhou architecture. I have walked so many villages and they are all empty houses, the current situation of Chinese society.
After arriving at the "Xin'anjiang Landscape Gallery", I went up the river, all the way was loquat trees, stop and take pictures, go into every village I pass, Miantan Village, Zhangtan Village... I really like the peaceful life in the village, with the green river that can be seen when I look up.
Finally, I went to Yuliang Village in Huizhou Ancient City again, took sunset photos on the dam, and quietly waited for dusk. That feeling is too beautiful and precious.
Shexian County, a treasure that is two and a half hours drive from Hangzhou, will come again next time to see the sea of clouds.
