Huangyao Ancient Town | Mountain clouds are like lead-colored silk
|The mountain clouds are as white as lead. 🌄 Huangyao Ancient Town | Clouds roll in and out, banyan trees sway in the wind, and on the top of the mountain, there is the sound of time breathing 🍃
🎬 The Painted Veil, which was adapted from Maugham's pen to the screen, depicts the oriental charm vividly, and Huangyao Ancient Town is the elegant background of the painting. Stepping on the veil of history and strolling in Huangyao surrounded by mountains, you can feel the strong nostalgia for the past.
🌳 When you first step into Huangyao, those majestic ancient banyan trees instantly capture the traveler's surprise. The vine-covered branches gently brushing the stream, all of which are like a vivid painting of the Lingnan countryside. The rural scenery of Guangdong and Guangxi in the minds of many travelers comes from the image of ancient banyan trees floating into the water. Huang Yao is the epitome of such a classic pattern.
🏞 Huangyao's prosperity began with the convenience of water transportation. But as the water flow of Yaojiang River decreased, this once prosperous commercial port also returned to its peaceful village life.
🎭💫 Ancient Theater & Baozhu Temple - These two ancient monuments at the north gate of Huangyao are heritage sites from the Qing Dynasty and are also cultural relics protection units of the autonomous region. The ancient stage is one of the only remaining stages in northeastern Guangxi. It is a single-eaved hip-and-gabled building with exquisite glazed decorations and lifelike auspicious beasts and floral patterns. Baozhu Temple combines Buddhist and Taoist elements, and its interior is decorated with dragon pillars, which is very different from the architectural style of southern Hunan. During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Baozhu Temple was also the headquarters of the Guangxi Working Committee.
🚶♀💡 Huangyao is not a big town, and you can walk around it in two hours. But tourists often seek that rare pastoral idyll in the blend of banyan trees and Dailong Bridge, and enjoy that rare leisure in the beautiful scenery.
🧘♂✨ Xianrenjing - Even life has not changed due to the halo of the 5A scenic spot. Local residents can still be seen washing clothes and vegetables next to Xianrenjing. In the slightly damp stone alley, through the open doors of the houses, you can get a glimpse of the warm and harmonious dinner time of every household.
🌉🐉 Dailong Bridge - You can take a tour around the ancient town to see Dailong Bridge, which is the landmark of Huangyao. Ancient trees and old houses stand proudly beside the small stone bridge in the morning mist, a paradise for photography enthusiasts. The southern snake on the side comes out of the cave, and there is another spectacle of strange rocks. Xinxing Street, opposite the Dailong Bridge, is the symbol of Huangyao. It is majestic and imposing as it is superimposed among the mountains.
🌆 Although the business atmosphere is becoming increasingly strong and many tourist and specialty shops have formed a bustling market, the Huangyao Ancient Town in the morning and evening is still a dreamland shrouded in mist and smoke. For Huang Yao, "The Veil" seems like a fateful entanglement. Perhaps it is because the oriental painting constructed by these strange peaks, bamboo forests, arch bridges and clouds is too charming.
🚌🚖 After visiting the ancient village in Fuchuan, you can take the bus from Fuchuan to Wuzhou at 8:40 and get off at the Huangyao Expressway Exit. There are many public buses between Hezhou and Huangyao, and carpooling to Hezhou High-speed Railway Station is also very convenient.
