On May 1st, we will start our journey to southern Anhui.

Ten of our traveling friends made an appointment to set out early in the morning and drove into southern Anhui for more than six hours. By noon, we encountered a Qiqi service area that did not provide catering services. At this time, the traveling friends brought tea eggs, pancakes, dumplings, and even roast duck, meat sauce, etc. played a huge role in easily solving the first lunch of the trip and everyone ate happily. Especially after the meal, we cut a watermelon as an after-meal fruit, making this lunch perfect. At about 6 p.m., after a 12-hour drive, we arrived at Qiandaohu Town.

After a brief rest, we continued on to Weiping Town, the planned first night camping site

As a result, every family was full, so I had no choice but to move forward. I happened to have driven for more than ten minutes and encountered Jiekou No. 1 Inn, which is across the Xin 'an River from Jiekou Town, and I was able to check in. The donkeys were excited and regardless of the fatigue of the journey, they quickly used the time waiting for meal preparation to set up a poker game and started fighting.

On May 2, we will take Anhui and Zhejiang No. 1 and visit Baili Gallery.

Although we had a 13-hour drive the day before, playing cards and drinking until late at night before we rested, our traveling friends were really energetic. At 5 o'clock in the morning on the 2nd, our traveling friends successively went to the Xin 'an River to enjoy the beautiful scenery around the inn. Some of the traveling friends even drove small boats to Jiekou Town on the other side of the river to go shopping.

After breakfast, we drove along the No. 1 Landscape Road in Anhui and Zhejiang shortly before arriving in Wuyang Township. After challenging the thrilling and exciting winding mountain trails with narrow slopes and sharp turns, we experienced driving like never before. After that, we had to visit the Spider Belly Tulou hidden in the mountains.

At noon, we tasted the taste of Wuyang Township Government Canteen (Wuyang Hotel) with the regret that no winner was decided in a game of eggs. After dinner, go straight to the Xin 'anjiang Landscape Gallery Scenic Area.

Xin 'anjiang Shanshui Gallery Scenic Area is located in Shendu Town, She County, Huangshan City. It is about a hundred miles long. It has always been the water throat of ancient Huizhou to Zhejiang and an important material distribution center. It was here that Huizhou merchants went to Jiangnan to start their business journey. The scenery here is beautiful and the river is open, but it has towering peaks on both sides, green mountains and clear waters, making people linger back and forth. There is an ancient quatine circulating here: "Deep crossing the ferry, deep crossing the ferry, Yao comes and Yao goes to both sides. Have you heard of it?

The scenic spot is famous for its combination of China's unique emblem culture with natural scenery and ancient villages. The ecological environment on both sides of the Taiwan Strait presents a three-dimensional ecological pattern of "high mountains and forests, Zhongshan tea, low mountain fruits, and fish in the water". The ancient houses of the Hui-style style are dotted among the green mountains and clear waters, and the Xin 'an River, known as the "Oriental Danube", passes through it. Throughout the year, the scenery is different, like a flowing landscape scroll, so it is called Xin 'anjiang Gallery

After visiting Shendu Town, travel 10 kilometers along the Xin 'an River to Miantan Village, located on the north bank of the Xin' an River. This is an important part of the Xin 'an River Landscape Gallery Scenic Area. It is famous at home and abroad for its "Santan Loquat", commonly known as "The Queen Mother of Heaven is flat with peaches, and the three ponds of loquat on the ground." Several of us beautiful donkeys couldn't resist the temptation. Seeing the master's acquiescence, we took the opportunity to "steal" a few Santan loquats. However, our attitude was good. We returned to the car and took the initiative to confess the "crime" we had just committed.

After leaving Miantan Village, we went to the next stop, Yuliangba, known as the "No. 1 Dujiangyan in Jiangnan".

Yuliang Dam was built in the Tang Dynasty and rebuilt in the Ming Dynasty, nearly 1400 years ago. It is the oldest and largest ancient barrage in the upper reaches of Xin 'an River. The status of Yuliang Dam is extremely important. Its functions of flood discharge and drought prevention, interception of ships, and beautifying the environment have become the symbol of Huizhou's rise and fall in successive dynasties. As an important terminal for fleets of merchants, large and small, on the Xin 'an River for hundreds of years, Yuliang Dam was the place where Hui merchants set sail from here to take on the prosperity of their families during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is a veritable "source of Hui merchants."

After enjoying Yuliang Dam and visiting Yuliang Ancient Town, the sun was almost setting. We hurried to Xiongcun, known as "the first island in Xin 'an and the most heroic village in Huizhou."

Xiongcun has a history of more than 800 years. It is surrounded by green mountains, covered by bamboo forests, and the Qingbi Xin 'an River flows close to the village. It is a treasure of feng shui with beautiful spirits and beautiful scenery. The surname Cao is inhabited by the people here. There is a Zhushan Academy, which is respected by their ancestors. There is still a touching story of a sister advising her brother to work hard. What's more special is that the saying,"The prime minister is there in the court, but the monarch is not there in three months." You can still hear the saying among the people.

After ending the entire day's trip, it was already eight o'clock in the evening when we arrived in the county of She County. After experiencing some difficult and helpless difficulties and confusion when we couldn't find a place to live, we once again welcomed the bright flowers. On the way to the forced transfer, we ran into a comfortable small hotel and a comfortable restaurant. Everyone's mood suddenly improved. After drinking a lot of wine amidst the noise, we went to rest contentedly.

On May 3, we will have a relaxing leisure trip in Guniujiang.

After tasting the local specialty breakfast in the morning, we drove for two hours to Guniujiang Guanyin Hall Scenic Area.

Guniujiang is the first national-level comprehensive nature reserve mainly based on forest ecosystems in Anhui Province. It is the largest nature reserve and national geological park in East China. It retains relatively complete natural vegetation and is extremely rich in biological resources. It is known as the "Green Nature Museum on the Edge of the Subtropics" and the "Natural Gene Bank of Rare Species." The main attractions of the Guanyintang Scenic Area we visited include Fairy Pond, Huanglongtan, Dayankeng, Xiaoyankeng, Immortal Gathering, etc. The main peaks include Dali Mountain, Camel Peak, Xuehuapian, and Xiaoli Mountain. The scenery is "majestic, dangerous, strange, and secluded" in one. The donkeys are deeply attracted by the beautiful scenery, especially the beautiful donkeys. They spend far more time posing for photos than enjoying the beautiful scenery. At the end of the tour, the donkeys found a bamboo forest and sat at three tables. While replenishing energy, they discussed the next step. At the same time, our team leader also made a wise decision and booked a place to stay in Qingyang County for tonight.

On May 4, it was raining and foggy to climb the flower platform.

Huatai Scenic Area is one of the core scenic spots in Jiuhua Mountain and the core area of Jiuhua Mountain National Forest Park and Geopark. It is located in the middle of Jiuhua Mountain and covers an area of 10 square kilometers. The scenery in the scenic area is magnificent and beautiful. It is famous for its strange peaks and rocks, clouds of clouds and rime, and the sea of flowers. It is known as the saying that "Lingshan Jiuhua, the beauty lies in the flower platform." The scenic spot consists of Dahuatai and Xiaohuatai. It is one of the Jiuhua Mountain alpine scenic spots. Huatai Scenic Area is located in the north of Tiantai Peak. It is named for its abundant mountain flowers. It is a newly developed tourist area dominated by natural landscapes in Jiuhua Mountain Scenic Area.

Here, the rain gear we had not prepared for a long time finally came in handy. Unfortunately, the fog and steam on the mountain were too heavy, which not only affected everyone's appreciation of the beautiful scenery of the flower stand, but also seriously affected the beautiful mood of the beautiful donkeys to take beautiful photos.

Considering that some of our fellow travelers only had a four-day holiday, we started our return trip after finishing our tour of Huatai, and with an attitude of not letting go of the green mountains, no matter how far the journey was or how congested the way was, we resolutely insisted on rushing to Hongze Zhuba Pot Sticker City to taste the long-lost delicious fish pot stickers (sorry, there were no delicious pictures left).

After eating and drinking, the donkeys returned to the beautiful Daguannan in an hour!
