Wuyuan/Shangrao 上饶
Wuyuan, on the boundary of three provinces in Jiangxi's northeastern corner, has a landscape dotted with strange caves, deep secluded rocks and numerous historic sites. Wuyuan County is home to some of the best-preserved ancient architecture in China. Wuyuan's structures were built in 740 during the Tang Dynasty, its remoteness and inconvenient transportation protecting its villages from too many visitors.
Wuyuan, known as the "most beautiful countryside in China", with at least 50 old villages, is located northeast of Jiangxi Province, and near Mt Huangshan and Jingdezhen. Local people there can enjoy the pure, clean brooks, seemingly delicate wooden buildings, unique bridges as well as the tranquil lifestyle, etc...

Huangling Scenic Area (篁岭):
Famous for its traditional practice of drying crops in the sun (晒秋), with colorful peppers, corn, and other produce displayed on bamboo trays.
The village is perched on a hillside, offering breathtaking views of terraced fields and surrounding mountains. A cable car ride is available for a stunning aerial view.

Wunüzhou Resort (婺女洲度假区):
Located on a picturesque island in the middle of a river, Wunüzhou Resort is a perfect place to unwind after a day of sightseeing.
"Da Tie Hua" (打铁花): This traditional performance involves throwing molten iron into the air, creating a dazzling fireworks-like display. It originated as a folk art in ancient China and is now a rare and captivating spectacle.

Wangxian Valley (望仙谷):
Afterwards we uncovered the tranquil valley with waterfalls, forested trails, and beautiful mountain scenery. It felt like stepping into a fairytale fantasy world. The area offers a profound journey through the harmonious trio of natural landscapes, human heritage, and legendary tales that transcends the ordinary. Here, it invits all who wander its paths to step into a story where every nook is a verse, every vista a painting, and every moment an ode to the enduring dance of nature, culture, and myth.
