【Huizhou Intangible Cultural Heritage Experience|Xixinan Village Fish Lantern Night Tour】

🌟【Huizhou Intangible Cultural Heritage Experience|Xixinan Village Fish Lantern Night Tour🏮】🌟 ✨Hey, darlings! Recently checked out the Fish Lantern Night Tour in Xixinan Ancient Village, Huangshan. It’s spontaneously organized by local villagers and it’s absolutely amazing! It feels like traveling back to ancient Huizhou, the atmosphere is just perfect~ 🏮Event details: As night falls, lanterns hang high in the ancient village✨, dozens of intangible cultural heritage fish lanterns slowly swim in the dark, leaping over ancient bridges or weaving through streams, beautifully complementing the Hui-style architecture—perfect for photos📸! Villagers dressed in traditional costumes carry large fish lanterns to lead the way, while visitors hold small fish lanterns following closely, like golden fish swimming in the night sky, super dreamy. 🔥Other activities: Besides the fish lantern parade, there are fireworks displays🎆, fish lantern banquets, and other folk experiences, fully immersive and very healing. 💡Tips: 1️⃣ The event usually takes place on holidays (like Spring Festival, Lantern Festival), so check the schedule before you go. 2️⃣ It gets a bit chilly at night in the ancient village, remember to dress warmly🧥. 3️⃣ For photos, wearing Hanfu or light-colored clothes gives a more ethereal effect~ 4️⃣ Nearby you can try Hui cuisine: stinky mandarin fish, Mao tofu… a must for foodies! 📍Location: Xixinan Ancient Village, Huizhou District, Huangshan City 📆Time: Follow official announcements (such as holiday nights like Spring Festival, New Year’s Day) 💬Personal feeling: Highly recommend it to those who love traditional culture and photography! This place is not commercialized, preserving the original charm of the ancient village. The moment the fish lanterns swim by feels like a scene from "Big Fish & Begonia," worth visiting again and again!
