Shangrao Huangling: A Thousand-Year-Old Ancient Village in the Autumn Drying Scroll, Every Step a Poem!

Huangling, located in Wuyuan County, Shangrao, Jiangxi, is a representative of "China's Most Beautiful Villages"! It is famous for the "Autumn Drying" folk custom, with red chili peppers, yellow corn, and white radishes covering the rooftops like a spilled palette 🎨, combined with Hui-style architecture and terraced fields surrounded by sea of clouds, every snapshot looks like a masterpiece! Recommended route: Ancient village stroll + terraced field hiking 🚶♀️🌾 I chose to start from "Tianjie," walking along the bluestone path to check in at "Drying Workshop," "Wugui Hall," and "Terraced Flower Sea," taking about 3 hours in total. The autumn drying scenes are the most stunning, with colorful crops covering the rooftops and villagers enthusiastically introducing the customs, full of lively local atmosphere! Experience: The autumn drying is breathtakingly beautiful, and hiking the terraced fields is super healing! 😍📸 Standing on the viewing platform of the "Drying Workshop," the entire ancient village looks like a three-dimensional painting, with red and yellow interwoven, delivering a full visual impact! 📸 While hiking the terraced fields, the layered greenery is dotted with rapeseed flowers (in spring) or red leaves (in autumn), the mountain breeze brushing your face, calming your heart.
