Furong Ancient Town!

Furong Town (芙蓉镇) is a beautifully preserved ancient village in Hunan, famous for its dramatic setting above a wide cascading waterfall. The town blends Tujia ethnic culture, stilted wooden houses, lantern-lit alleys, and riverside scenery. Visitors can wander narrow stone streets, try local snacks like rice tofu, and enjoy panoramic views from the cliffside walkways. At night, the waterfall is illuminated and becomes the highlight of the town, creating a magical atmosphere. Furong is small, relaxed, and perfect for a slow wander, offering a peaceful break from the busier Zhangjiajie area while still feeling culturally rich and visually stunning.
