It takes three and a half hours by highway from Yiyang city to Zhongtian Village ancient residences in Changning City. Visiting the ancient village is just the right way to relieve the boredom and fatigue of driving. It is said to be the largest Ming and Qing dynasty ancient residential complex in Hunan, related to military camps. The high walls and narrow alleys indeed reflect the style of Jiangnan residences, but the decorative carvings are not like those of wealthy Jiangnan families; they are more simple and focus more on practical living functions, representing the homes of well-off families. This place is far from big cities, with little commercial development, and most of the vacant courtyards have not been renovated. The printmaking base, paper-cutting exhibition, and the opening of the ancestral hall are already the greatest kindness to the few visitors. From here, there is no highway to Xintian County, about an hour and a half drive, with overnight stay in Xintian. Early the next day, visit the Xintian Confucian Temple. Following the navigation, we drove into a small alley near the temple, just in time for the morning market. Stalls on both sides occupied most of the road, leaving us stuck with no way forward or back. Fortunately, a kind man stepped in to direct traffic, and we reversed into an open space in front of Wanshou Palace. So friends planning to come should remember not to drive in the morning. The Confucian Temple is small, well preserved and maintained, and free to visit. Unfortunately, Wanshou Palace was not open. The road condition from here to the former residence of Jiang Xianyun is good, about a twenty-minute drive. Martyr Jiang Xianyun was an early revolutionary of our party. He was admitted to the Whampoa Military Academy with the top score, served as the first secretary of the CPC Guangdong District Committee, was directly led by Zhou Enlai, and was one of the founders of the Chinese Youth Military Union, recognized as a talented member of the first Whampoa class. The martyr’s former residence is a Qing dynasty building. The adjacent old primary school site has been converted into a memorial hall, now a revolutionary education base.

Enjoy intangible cultural heritage cuisine, unique rock formations, ancient villages, and seas of clouds and tea plantations – a one-stop experience. Slow and relaxed throughout, this tour offers excellent value! Day 1: Cultural Exploration Upon arrival in Changning, start with a bowl of Pengtang wooden rice noodles 🍜, a traditional intangible cultural heritage. The smooth and chewy rice noodles paired with a local chicken broth will kick off your culinary journey. In the morning, head straight to the Yuluo Highway's Metasequoia section for a free photo opportunity at "China's Most Beautiful Rural Road." The dappled sunlight filtering through the Metasequoia forest is perfect for taking pictures 📸. Next, visit China Seal Mountain and the God of Wealth Cave.

Dinner will be Yao-style cured pork and dried Xijiang River fish, a hearty meal for about 30 RMB per person. Stay in a budget hotel in the city center, only 140 RMB per person for two nights. Day 2: Mountain and Water Oxygen-Rich Nights Head to Tiantangshan National Forest Park, enjoy a free hike to the windmill viewing platform, and gaze at the vast tea plantations spread like a green carpet. Occasionally, encountering a sea of ​​clouds creates a fairyland-like scene. Halfway up the mountain, find a farmer to enjoy a cup of Tashan tea, its refreshing and sweet aftertaste incredibly soothing. In the afternoon, explore Tashan Grand Canyon, a free "Little Jiuzhaigou of Hengyang" with its waterfalls and streams. The trail winds along the water, allowing you to walk on fallen leaves, admire the waterfalls, and experience an abundance of negative ions. Lunch will be at a farmhouse restaurant at the foot of the mountain, featuring Luoqiao fish sauce (crispy on the outside and tender on the inside) and yellow sparrow meat (rich in flavor), authentic Hunan cuisine for about 25 RMB per person. Returning to the city center in the evening, I tried rice noodles with snails and mugwort cakes 🥧, a satisfying street food meal for just 10 yuan per person. Day 3: Slow and Relaxing Return Trip Waking up naturally, I enjoyed a bowl of Changning's specialty oil tea, a warm and comforting breakfast with crushed peanuts—a local favorite. In the morning, I visited the free Shuikoushan Workers' Movement Memorial Hall, immersing myself in the history of the revolutionary workers' movement. Along the way, I browsed local specialty shops, buying Baisha sesame cakes, Tashan tea, and Changning Seven Vinegar 🛒—good value and easy to carry. For lunch, I slurped down one last bowl of pork bone noodles—a generous 12 yuan for a large bowl with extra fillings, a truly satisfying meal. The afternoon was a relaxed return trip. Transportation throughout the trip relied on public transport and carpooling, totaling 60 yuan per person; entrance fees were only 80 yuan, with all other attractions free; food cost approximately 280 yuan per person, and accommodation 140 yuan, for a total of under 700 yuan per person—a stress-free trip to Changning.

Today I went to Quan Feng Viewpoint in Changning, Hengyang to see the sea of clouds. The road up the mountain is very winding, but you can drive all the way to the top, making the climb painless.

Changning isn't a trendy tourist destination, but it's absolutely captivating! A day trip encompassing "mountains and rivers + ancient architecture + culinary delights" will leave you with a clear understanding of your budget, even the taxi driver will offer to draw you a hand-drawn map! Start at 7:30 AM, take a taxi from Hengyang city (about 1 hour, 50 yuan per person for a shared ride) straight to [Yinshan Geopark]—don't be fooled by the name, this isn't a dry science park, it's a textbook example of Danxia landforms! Towering red cliffs, facing stone gates, and the most amazing is the "One Line Sky" plank road, suspended on a hundred-meter cliff, with a sea of ​​clouds surging below—every photo looks like a movie poster. Tickets are 68 yuan, half price for students; remember to wear non-slip shoes! Descend the mountain at 12 PM, then take a 15-minute taxi ride to [Zhongtian Ancient Village] (20 yuan). This Ming Dynasty village is even quieter than Fenghuang, with its 600-year-old stone-paved roads, horse-head walls, and carved gate towers all preserved in their original state. Highlights: The Qing Dynasty wooden stage in the Li Clan Ancestral Hall, and the 1200-year-old ginkgo tree at the village entrance (already adorned with golden leaves in November!) – villagers say the shadows cast on the blue bricks look like scattered gold. Admission is free, but it's recommended to give the gatekeeper 20 yuan for tea; she'll then guide you through hidden alleyways to see the Ming Dynasty fire-prevention culvert. At 3 PM, drive 20 minutes to [Miaoqian Town] and head straight to [Tiantangshan Ecological Park]! This is the hidden gem: tens of thousands of acres of wild ginkgo forest + Danxia landforms + waterfalls all in one frame! Pick up a few ginkgo leaves to use as bookmarks, take a small bamboo raft across the emerald pool (30 yuan/person), and then climb to the viewing platform for panoramic views – the sunset paints the entire mountain amber, breathtakingly beautiful. Dinner must be at the local restaurant in front of the temple (around 60 RMB per person): smoked bacon stir-fried with fern cakes, braised chicken, and fried ginkgo nuts (slightly bitter with a sweet aftertaste, a local snack), paired with a bowl of steaming hot Changning soybean oil soup—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, with a bean aroma that goes straight to your head! For the return trip, it's recommended to share a ride back to Hengyang (departs at 18:30, 40 RMB), or stay overnight (recommended: a guesthouse in an ancient village, 198 RMB including breakfast). ✅Total cost estimate: Transportation 110 + Entrance fees 68 + Bamboo raft 30 + Food 120 + Miscellaneous expenses 72 = 400 RMB (enough for 200 RMB to buy ginkgo pastries and make rubbings!) ⚠️Tips: Wear comfortable shoes! Bring a thermos (it gets cool in the mountains in the mornings and evenings); A must-see during ginkgo season (mid-November to early December); Refuse to just "been there, done that"; chat with the old ladies a bit more. The soul of Changning is in the chili sauce they dry on bamboo trays.

It only takes 1.5 hours to drive from Guangzhou to embrace autumn and feel the slowly falling maple leaves, as long as thoughts. When you step into this green world, you will see colorful maple leaves. Although some maple leaves have fallen, the red maple leaves are still the protagonists of this scenery. The best time to see maple leaves is at the end of December, but the maple leaves throughout the autumn are worth seeing. After entering the park, you can walk along the maple viewing path, passing through Bridge No. 4, Bridge No. 3, Bridge No. 2, and finally Bridge No. 1. Among them, Bridge No. 2 and Nine-Curved Bridge are highly recommended for maple viewing. Standing at these viewing spots, you can enjoy the picturesque scenery of maple leaves. As for tickets, the adult ticket is CNY 49, and the double ticket is CNY 88, which is very affordable. In addition, free parking is available in the park. However, it should be noted that there are few shops in the park, only one restaurant, a tofu flower stall, and a coffee shop, and the conditions are relatively simple, so it is recommended that tourists bring their own food and drinks. You can choose to dine at the farm outside the park and then enter the park to play. It is recommended to enter the park in the morning to avoid the peak period in the afternoon so that you can better enjoy this quiet and beautiful maple leaf world. I wish you a pleasant trip to the green world of Qingyuan Fogang!
