This isn't Jiangnan, but it's even better!!!

A Millennial Ancient Town in an Ink Painting—A Dream-Seeking Journey to Sanhe Stroll along the bluestone paths, touch the mottled horse head walls, as the spring breeze blows through the willows of the central Anhui water town, Sanhe Ancient Town is waiting for the awakening of an old Jiangnan dream with the mellow fragrance brewed over thousands of years. Ancient Bridges and Flowing Water Tell of Spring and Autumn The soul of Sanhe is hidden in the crisscrossing waterways. Ascend the Wangyue Bridge, watch the sails skim over the confluence of the two rivers, and listen to the storytellers in the century-old teahouse recount the fiery past of the Taiping Army. Every brick and tile forms history, and Sanhe has written half of Huizhou's history with its ancient architectural complex. Water Town Memories on the Tip of Your Tongue The aroma of rice wine wafts from the riverside restaurants, and the Sanhe shrimp paste simmering on the stove gurgles. Taste a bite of the crispy inch-gold candy, the sweetness hides the flavor of childhood New Year; hold a bowl of fresh mussel soup, the broth precipitates the feelings of generations of fishermen. A Poetic Dwelling Through the Four Seasons Enjoy the golden rapeseed flowers dyeing the ancient embankment in spring, ride a painted boat and listen to the rain hitting the lotus leaves in summer, savor chrysanthemum wine during the autumn crab harvest, and gather around the stove for a winter night chat while watching the snow fall on the green tiles. The bamboo weaving in the hands of the intangible cultural heritage craftsmen sways with time, and the Lu Opera singing on the stage has echoed for thousands of years. Here, every season transforms into tangible poetry.
