I always thought Hongcun had the most rustic charm until I reached the end of Huizhou

Let me take you into an ancient village with even more rustic charm than Hongcun—Chengkan, and together we can experience the most authentic Huizhou atmosphere. Chengkan, this ancient village praised by the Song dynasty Confucian scholar Zhu Xi as the number one village in the south of the Yangtze River, has preserved its most original ancient village appearance. Here, there is no strong commercial atmosphere or the hustle and bustle of crowds, just the rich, authentic atmosphere of the old village. The entire village is laid out according to the Bagua, and Yongxing Lake is like a traditional Chinese ink painting of the south of the Yangtze. Here, you can admire the beauty of a few white geese gliding across the water, and walking on the stone-paved roads, you can carefully observe the tortoise shell-like patterns on the whitewashed mountain walls that are filled with a sense of history. The residential houses by the street are surrounded by water channels on three sides, with villagers occasionally coming out to wash clothes, and the small green vegetables growing freely in the vegetable gardens, all of which showcase the tranquility and simplicity of this ancient village. The tour route includes the entrance, Yongxing Lake, the lower houses, Yanyi Hall, Zhongying Tower, Huanxiu Bridge, and Luodong Shu Ancestral Hall. Here, you can feel the unique charm of Huizhou life. The ancient village scenery and the atmosphere of Chengkan make people linger and forget to return.
