Not Suzhou or Hangzhou, but Anhui's Underrated Dreamy Water Town

📸【Must-Capture Spots】 ✅ Liutongxinglongzhuang: The "commercial giant" of the Ming and Qing dynasties, featuring five courtyards, eight wings, and thirty-two rooms—experience the prosperity of ancient merchants! ✅ Dong Yinchui Memorial Hall: Six exhibition halls take you through the life of this legendary figure, brimming with historical charm~ ✅ Dafu Di: A private residence of Ming and Qing literati, with exquisitely crafted furniture made of rosewood and mahogany—a must-visit for antique enthusiasts! ✅ Yang Zhenning's Former Residence: Discover the growth story of this scientific giant, with fun interactive installations—perfect for kids to learn something new~ ✅ Helu: The former home of Huai Army general Liu Bingzhang, showcasing the charisma of this late Qing dynasty military leader—history buffs shouldn't miss it! ✅ Wangyue Pavilion: Climb to the top for a panoramic view of the ancient town, plus a treasure trove of ancient art inside—a visual feast! 【Travel Tips】 1️⃣ Mosquito & Sun Protection: Mosquitoes are abundant during summer lotus blooms, so bring repellent; sunny days require sunscreen, while rainy days offer misty Jiangnan scenery. 2️⃣ Best Photo Times: Afternoon sunlight casts beautiful shadows on white walls; during blue hour (after 7 PM), the lights create a magical atmosphere. 3️⃣ Interactive Fun: Chengkan's white geese love biscuits—capture playful moments while feeding them. 4️⃣ Transport Tips: The ancient villages are close together, making self-driving or chartered cars ideal. Pair your visit with nearby attractions like Huangshan or Xin'an River.
