Lishui will punish anyone who doesn't make a strategy! Free of charge

My dears, you must listen to advice! You will really regret going to Lishui without making a plan! Fortunately, these hidden gems in Lishui are all free 🆓 It’s so cool! Songyang Ancient Village is hidden in the deep mountains of Lishui. I really regret not coming here earlier! This place was rated by National Geographic as "the last secret place in Jiangnan"! There are not only spectacular earthen buildings here, but also many well-preserved ancient villages 🏠 The key point is that they are all free, you will lose a lot if you don’t go! Here, I seem to have found the poetic life of my dreams, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, it is so comfortable. My dears, if you want to take beautiful photos, it is recommended to go there on a sunny day. Songyang on a sunny day is like having its own filter, and the photos will look good no matter how you take them! However, the transportation here is not very convenient, and it is not easy to get a taxi, so the best way to travel is to drive yourself. But I have to remind you that the mountain is almost entirely winding roads, so it is best to be driven by experienced off-road veterans. For those who are going to Songyang for the first time, I highly recommend this 2-day self-driving route: Pingtian Village ➟ Xikeng Village ➟ Chenjiapu Village ➟ Yangjiatang Village ➟ Youtian Village ➟ Songzhuang Village ➟ Songyang Ming and Qing Ancient Street (bus stop) Specific itinerary: 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝟏: Pingtian Village ➟ Xikeng Village ➟ Chenjiapu Village. You can choose to stay in Chenjiapu Village or Songyang County at night. 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝟐: Yangjiatang Village➟Youtian Village➟Songzhuang Village➟Songyang Ming and Qing Ancient Street (bus stop) The following ancient villages are all must-visit treasures in Songyang, each with its own characteristics, don't miss them✔️: Yangjiatang Village ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: The two ancient camphor trees at the entrance of the village create a great atmosphere for taking photos! The neatly arranged yellow rammed earth houses look like the Potala Palace in Jiangnan from a distance. It is simply amazing! Chenjiapu Village ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: A secluded ancient village on an 800-meter cliff, full of literary and artistic atmosphere. There are Pioneer Bookstore, coffee shop, B&B and so on here. On rainy days, the place is filled with mist and looks like a fairyland. It is also the filming location for the TV series “The Golden Years”. It really feels great! Youtian Village ⭐️⭐️⭐️: Not far from Yangjiatang Village, relatively more niche. It is said that this is the gathering place of the descendants of Ye Meng, the left prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty. The century-old horsetail pine tree at the entrance of the village has witnessed the changes of time and is full of historical charm. Songzhuang Village ⭐️⭐️⭐️: Songzhuang Village is famous for a stone arch bridge. It is also the filming location of National Geographic! The village houses are built along the stream, simple and quiet, as if time has slowed down here. Songyang Old Street ⭐️⭐️⭐️: This old street is full of Ming and Qing architectural styles and is known as the "living Along the River During the Qingming Festival". There is a strong urban atmosphere here, and you can feel the strong smell of fireworks when you stroll through it. My dears, put Songyang on your travel list!
