This is a 5A-level scenic spot...!

It is the only well-preserved ancient village in China, but unlike other scenic spots, it seems to have no so-called 5A-level standard. The ticket is valid for three days, and the relevant information is not electronically entered, but the ticket seller writes your name and date on the ticket directly, and it is in traditional Chinese characters. Simply put, this is a village with almost zero commercialization. When we arrived at the first attraction, Changchun Dasha, it was very empty inside. If you want to know its story, you need to learn it from the stone tablet. Fortunately, an old man from the local area came to tell us the story here, which we are very grateful for! Later, we happened to meet a local aunt and asked her to be our guide. She took us to visit all the attractions in the village for 20 yuan and told us many stories. The art of Huizhou architecture is vividly reflected here, and it also shows its brilliance in history... "Sun-drying" - when we went there, it was just in time for the sun to set, and the farmers were just about to return, and we completely felt the life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset. There are two ditches, five streets, and ninety-nine alleys here. The innkeeper said that every alley is connected, but guests often get lost. The guide aunt told us the way to Yongxing Lake before, and I have walked it several times and remembered it, so it went smoothly. But later, I was greedy and wanted to eat Grandma Wu's osmanthus glutinous rice cake, and I didn't want to bother the boss to pick us up, so we walked around in a big circle, but fortunately, we finally found our way back to the inn, hahaha~ I stayed at 🌟99 Alley Inn, which is inside the scenic area. The owner and his family are very nice, and the room is very clean! On the first day I arrived, I saw the owner's son eating double-skin milk, and I wanted to eat it too 🤪. The brother was so enthusiastic that he led me there, both during the day and at night with a flashlight! It was great! I didn't buy double-skin milk, thinking I should eat something I can't usually eat at home, hahaha. I bought osmanthus kudzu jelly, osmanthus black plum jelly, and fairy grass rice wine, all of which I like! I haven't had time to buy the others, so I will have to come back later. By the way, this shop is called "Luo Ji Dessert Shop". It is really quiet here. The innkeeper said that young people may not like to stay here for a long time, but I think it is quite good! I like quietness, haha~ The people in the village are all doing their own things, working at sunrise and resting at sunset. I hope it will be maintained and developed, although it is impossible to restore it to its former state, it will definitely get better and better! I also hope it will not be commercialized, at least to retain its purest heritage and atmosphere...
