Where to spend New Year's Eve in Anhui? Lichiao Water Town in Tongling!

Lichiao Water Town is like a hidden gem in Anhui. White walls and black tiles, small bridges and flowing water, every step is a scene. As soon as you enter, you will see a square pond. The pond is like a natural ink painting, with the beauty of emptiness in the blank space. When night falls, the lights come on, and the whole water town is lit up, full of New Year flavor. There are also free shows to watch from day to night! For those visiting for the first time, you may be a little overwhelmed, but don't worry, here is a detailed guide. 1. Tour route After entering from the entrance, you will first reach the poetic square pond, then stroll through the ancient streets, shuttle between the ancient buildings to feel the traces of time, and stop in front of the ancient stage to appreciate the charm of traditional culture. Then go to the sparkling lake in the afternoon, walk over the charming Lichiao Bridge, climb the Wenchang Pavilion to overlook the panoramic view, and finally take a break near the Xiyan Building, and then go to the Wanfeng Tower Square to eat some snacks. When night falls, go to the square pond to watch the intangible cultural heritage iron flower show, and be sure to wait for the fireworks show at night. 2. Highlights 1. Intangible cultural heritage performances During the day, there are good shows on the ancient stage and the water stage. The melodious and graceful tune of Huangmei Opera, the agile posture of the stilt artists, the thrilling performances of the acrobats, etc., are full of New Year flavor, and each program carries the profound heritage of traditional culture, which is immersive and memorable. 2. Iron flower show There are two performances a day. When night falls, a visual feast is staged by the square pond - the iron flower show. The mirror-like water surface of the square pond perfectly reflects the "fire tree and silver flower" blooming on the shore, which is simply amazing. 3. Fireworks show at 9 pm every Saturday New Year is of course incomplete without fireworks, so come to Lichiao Water Town to watch the grand fireworks show! Here, between the ancient bridge, the lake, and the Wanfeng Tower, watch the fireworks bloom in the night sky with everyone, as if time stands still at this moment. Bring your family and friends to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Anhui in the New Year!
