Trip to Hefei, China 🇨🇳

It was a trip to Hefei, China 🇨🇳 When we visited Hefei, we were amazed by the city’s balance of modern skyscrapers, serene lakes, and historical sites 😍 Whether you love capturing natural landscapes or cultural landmarks, Hefei offers plenty of fantastic photography spots 📸 Our first stop was Lord Bao Park, dedicated to the legendary Song Dynasty official, Bao Zheng. As we explored, we found that the Bao Gong Temple, stone bridges, and the beautiful lake created a perfect setting for traditional Chinese photography 📸 The best shot is from the arched bridge, capturing the reflection of the pagoda in the water 💦 Morning is the best time to visit for a peaceful atmosphere ☀️ 📍72 Wuhu Road, Baohe District, Hefei, Anhui, China We then visited Xiaoyaojin Park, a historical battlefield turned into a lush green park 🌱 The traditional Chinese pavilions, stone pathways, and vibrant flower gardens 🌺 provided amazing photo opportunities. We recommend heading to the lake area, where you can capture stunning boat reflections and willows swaying over the water. Late afternoon is ideal for a warm, golden light ✨ 📍16 Shouchun Road, Luyang District, Hefei, Anhui, China For a contrast to Hefei’s historical sites, we explored Swan Lake, surrounded by modern skyscraper🏙️ The best shot here is at sunset, when the lake reflects the skyline’s golden hues. If you enjoy night photography 📸 we highly recommend staying until after dark when the city lights illuminate the lake, creating a mesmerizing reflection ✨ 📍Swan Lake, Shushan District, Hefei, Anhui, China We also visited the Anhui Museum, where the ancient artifacts, calligraphy, and bronze sculptures made for fantastic detail shots 📸 The museum’s grand architecture itself is worth photographing, especially in the early morning ☀️ when the light casts soft shadows on its unique exterior ✨ 📍268 Anqing Road, Luyang District, Hefei, Anhui, China Hefei’s mix of natural beauty, cultural landmarks, and modern cityscapes makes it an incredible destination for photography. Whether you’re capturing tranquil lakes, historical sites, or city lights, we highly recommend these spots for unforgettable shots 🙌🙌🙌 #discoverchina #vacation #travel
