6 Days Huangshan Photography Tour

Our local professional guide will meet you at the Tunxi station and help you to check in the hotel.
After that, you will proceed to visit the best-preserved commercial street named the Ancient Street of Tunxi, built in Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Today we'll drive to the foot of Mt. Huangshan before ascending mountain by Yuping cable car. The breath-taking scenery of Mt. Huangshan has attracted numerous painters and artists across the country ever since the ancient time. It was listed as world natural and cultural heritage by UNESCO. We really can not find out the right words to describe the stunning beauty of this mountain.

Photography is surely the best way to share with your family members or friends the marvelous views. Visit Jade Screen Peak, Guest-greeting Pine, Lotus Peak (the highest peak of Huangshan with an elevation of 1,864 meters), White Clouds Scenic Area, Tianhai Scenic Area, Bright Summit, Flying-over Rock etc.

Today we continue our exploring and photographing of Mt. Huangshan at the views of the Cloud-dispelling Pavilion, one part of the Xihai Grand Canyon, the Lion Peak, the Flower-scattering Valley and the Beginning-to-believe Peak. Descend the Mountain by the Yungu Cable Car in the afternoon and drive to Yixian County, which is praised as a veritable Garden of Eden on earth, visiting and photographing in the village called Hongcun Village (a world cultural heritage site, the unique buffalo-shaped village, one of the shooting locations for the Oskar-awarded movie “Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon”). 

Today we continue to photograph in Yixian County, including Lucun Village with its beautiful woodcarvings, Mukeng Village with its amazing bamboo forest, Tachuan Village with its beautiful autumn scenery and Pingshan village (a peaceful, simple and beautiful mountain village, real countryside with small bridges and flowing water).

Today we continue to photograph in Yixian County, including Xidi Village (a world cultural heritage site, the boat-shaped village, which is reputed as “A Living Ancient Residential Museum in China”), Nanping Village (which is just like a labyrinth, with eight ancient ancestral temples and 300 buildings of Ming and Qing Dynasties interconnected by long and narrow alleys. It is also a famous movie-shooting site, where the movie “Judou” was shot) and Guanlu Village (the magical ancient dwellings are interconnected with each other). All those villages mentioned above still preserve a lot of old Huizhou-styled residential houses built in Ming & Qing Dynasties, characterized by white-washed walls, gray-tiles, horse-head eaves and beautiful carvings.

In late afternoon, drive back to Tunxi, the downtown of Huangshan City.

Pay a visit to Shexian County, one of the historic and cultural counties in China, which is well-known for its long history and profound Culture. There, you may appreciate the unique Tangyue Archway Complex (the largest one in scope so far in China, comprising as many as 7 arches constructed in Ming and Qing Dynasties), the Bao’s Family Garden (the largest bonsai garden of Huizhou School in China,) Chengkan Village (built in the Ming Dynasty, a so-called mysterious “Eight Diagram Village” with its layout just in accordance with the traditional Chinese Fengshui theory) and Tangmo Village (which was honored as “the Model Village of Tang Dynasty” for its honest and simple life style).After seeing all those above, you may get some idea of the spirit of the architecture style in Ancient Huizhou Prefecture. Then, drive back to Tunxi and go to the next destination by plane or bullet train.
