It is currently the only lake landscape inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. West Lake's beauty lies in its shimmering waters and mist-clad mountains, transforming enchantingly through the four seasons.

Nestled at the southern foot of Huangshan Mountain along the Fengle River, this millennium-old village resembles a hidden utopia. Well-preserved Ming-Qing architecture bears witness to time's passage and historical legacy. National cultural relics—Old House Pavilion and Green Encircling Pavilion—silently echo past grandeur.
Hongcun Village
Founded in the Northern Song Dynasty (900+ years old), its Hui-style architecture features whitewashed walls, black-tiled roofs, and iconic horse-head gables. Exquisite wood, brick, and stone carvings adorn interiors and exteriors with distinct cultural motifs. Among 137 surviving ancient residences stand Chengzhi Hall (dubbed "Folk Forbidden City"), Peide Hall, Sanli Hall (home of Hui merchants), Lesxu Hall, and the historic Nanhu Academy.
Nanhu Academy
Amidst South Lake's emerald waters, this white-and-black complex stands serene—where Hongcun's scholars once chanted classics. Cradled by lake reflections and mountain hues, it blends Hui architectural elegance with scholarly ambiance into Jiangnan's misty rain, forming the softest brushstroke in Hongcun's ink-wash painting.
Yuezhao Lake
Yuezhao, also called Yuetang by the locals, refers to the "cow's stomach" or "cow's small belly" in folk terms. It is located at the center of the ancient village. This semi-circular pond anchors the ancient village as its central landmark. Encircled by Hui-style architecture with whitewashed walls and black-tiled roofs, its mirror-like waters reflect timeless Huizhou charm. Historically, only Hongcun's wealthiest and most prestigious families resided around Yuezhao Lake.
Chengzhi Hall
Hongcun's "Folk Forbidden City." Once the mansion of salt merchant Wang Dinggui, every carved beam whispers merchant-legends and ingenuity. Each corner narrates Hui traders' sagas—their wealth amassed across China, yet hearts tethered to homeland. Duty to family and zest for life are etched into its very foundations, embodying "one mansion, half of Hui merchant history."
Wang Clan Ancestral Hall
A family's memory vault deep in Hongcun. Behind its weighty doors, the plaque "Filial Piety as Our Code" hangs in the main hall—honoring ancestors and admonishing descendants.

Every brick and tile speaks of "roots," offering an eternal harbor for blood ties and nostalgia.

Itinerary: Huangshan Mountain (including shuttle bus, Yuping Cable Car, and Yungu Cable Car) - Shixin Peak - Beihai Scenic Area - Qingliang Terrace - Paiyun Pavilion
Huangshan
Its majestic landscapes and profound cultural heritage draw countless travelers. The "Four Wonders" — bizarre pines, grotesque rocks, sea of clouds, and hot springs — define its allure. Pristine mists churn through peaks: at times like raging ocean waves, at others like sheer veils, enveloping mountains in celestial grandeur. Every season unveils unique vistas awaiting discovery.
Shixin Peak
"He who misses Shixin Peak, knows not Huangshan pines." At 1,683 meters, this peak guards Huangshan’s most mesmerizing scenery. Its marvels begin with the pines — seemingly sculpted by nature, tenaciously rooted in crevices. Then unfolds the view: an open summit like a natural observatory, where emerald ridges pierce churning clouds, vanishing and reappearing in ethereal fantasy.
Beihai Scenic Area
Nestled within a "cool oasis" encircled by peaks, Beihai’s soul lies in its cloud seas. Standing cliffside, white clouds surge beneath your feet while pine whispers and winds hum — an ascent to heaven. Its charm resides in pine-and-stone spectacles: the Stone Monkey Watching the Sea perched eternally over clouds; the Stone Brush Blooming with Flowers, where a pine tilts like an ink-laden brush poised to verse the sky. Legendary pines like Black Tiger Pine and Unity Pine dot the forests, each uniquely contorted.
Qingliang Terrace:
Dubbed "Huangshan’s Premier Viewing Platform". Its magic first whispers through "coolness" — summer breezes sweep away heat while elsewhere swelters. Greater wonder awaits in its vistas: this stone ledge juts cliffward, framing panoramic "windows" to Huangshan. Leftward, Shixin Peak’s pine umbrellas unfold; rightward, Lion Peak’s stone monkey crouches; ahead, boundless valleys stretch into infinity.
Paiyun Pavilion
Built in 1935 with granite slabs, this oblong pavilion stands serene at West Sea Gate. Step inside to enter a fantasy realm of grotesque stones — hailed as a "Gallery of Ingenious Stones". Each rock whispers mythical legends, igniting the imagination.
Itinerary: Huangshan (Sunrise at Bright Summit) - Tianhai Scenic Area - Yuping Pavilion — Chun'an County
At dawn, ascend to Bright Summit (Guāngmíng Dǐng) for Huangshan’s most magnificent sunrise—a soul-stirring spectacle no nature lover should miss. After hotel breakfast, explore Beihai Scenic Area to witness ever-shifting cloud seas and towering peaks. At Yuping Pavilion, admire the iconic Greeting Pine and Farewell Pine in their distinct majesty. Conclude with a transfer to Chun'an County.
The Sunrise at Bright Summit
When dawn’s first light pierces the night sky over Huangshan’s Bright Summit, the mountains awaken. A crimson sun drags free from clouds, leaping above the horizon with primal vitality. Instantly, golden rays cascade—gilding jagged rocks and cloaking churning cloud seas in splendor. In this moment, every moment of waiting becomes rewarding.
Tianhai Scenic Area
Huangshan’s "aerial garden" at 1,700+ meters, where cloud seas are perennial guests. Its magic lies in concealment and revelation—an open plain hides within encircling peaks (Lianhua, Tiandu, Liandan), offering both awe before towering summits and rare tranquility.
Yupinglou Scenic Area
A viewing deck cradled in the palms of cloud seas and legendary pines. Here, the Greeting Pine meets your gaze while the Farewell Pine stands sentinel nearby—Huangshan’s poetic etiquette of welcome and parting. Perched on Wenshu Terrace (1,680m), every window frames majesty. The wonder of Yupinglou is that it is never an isolated landscape; it serves as the backdrop for the Greeting Pine, a frame for Lianhua Peak, and a station where the sea of clouds flows through.
Itinerary: Qiandao Lake (by boat) - Meifeng Peak (including round-trip cable car) - Yule Island - Longshan Island - Hangzhou
After hotel breakfast, visit Qiandao Lake Scenic Area. 1,078 islands lie like scattered emeralds, cradled by crystalline waters. Board your cruise ship to behold islands dotting the expanse-a casually brushed ink-wash landscape painting by nature’s hand.
Meifeng Scenic Area
Qiandao Lake's soul resides at Meifeng's heights. Dubbed "The Lake's Prime Viewing Platform", this peak offers unparalleled vistas of "a thousand islands vying in beauty". Emerald isles scatter like jade across the water—larger ones undulating like mountain ranges, smaller ones dainty as hairpin dots—while the lake itself gleams as a colossal jadeite, carved by islands into serpentine contours.
Yule Island
A culinary paradise featuring the "Lake's Number One Cauldron"—a giant iron wok simmering secret-recipe "Dongpo Fish". Numerous buffet restaurants serve diverse local delicacies. The island also hosts Qiandao Lake’s largest aquatic playground, Water World, and its sole Floating Stage for performances.
Longshan Island
Among Qiandao Lake’s myriad isles, Longshan guards its cultural essence. Ascend weathered stone steps from the dock to encounter ancient camphor trees; deep within their shade lies Hai Rui Temple. Inside, the statue of Hai Rui (Ming Dynasty’s "Unofficial Judge") gazes forth with piercing eyes—his incorruptible spirit transcending time.
