A Stunning Seclusion: The Last Untouched Paradise in Jiangnan

Have you ever felt like something is missing after spending too much time in the city? Today, I'm taking you to Songyang, Zhejiang, hailed by National Geographic as "the last untouched paradise in Jiangnan," a place where time slows down! 🌿 Songzhuang Village "The last untouched paradise in Jiangnan" lives up to its name! A clear stream flows through the village, and a 600-year-old stone arch bridge stands quietly. Villagers wash vegetables by the stream, surrounded by bamboo forests, as if you've stepped into the filming location of "The Faraway Place". There's hardly any commercialization here, preserving the most original rural look. Yangjiatang Village The old buildings built on the mountain are painted yellow, looking like a "golden little Potala Palace" from afar! The couple trees in the village are a popular spot for photos. Stand in the photography pavilion to capture the old buildings, and you'll get a great shot in no time! This is also the filming location of "A Romance of The Little Forest", bursting with artistic vibes! Xikeng Village Located at an altitude of over 700m, this village blends the sea of clouds with ancient houses. Every shot you take is worthy of a photographer's best work! There are also large tea fields on the top of the mountain, full of greenery and healing vibes! Songyang Old Street (Ming and Qing Ancient Street) With a history of over 1,800 years, this old street is not commercialized and is full of the daily life of the original residents. Cotton fluffer, scale maker, tailor, barber... This is a real-life version of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival"! Chenjiapu Village Backed by cliffs and surrounded by mountains, it is a representative of cliff villages! "China's Most Beautiful Village Bookstore," Librairie Avant-Garde, is located here. Sit on the edge of the cliff and space out, away from the hustle and bustle of the world. It's simply the ideal state of life! Pingtian Village You can see the sea of clouds for more than 300 days a year, a veritable paradise! Live here, and you'll wake up to a wonderland every day! ⚠️ Transportation Tips: The ancient villages of Songyang are located deep in the mountains, and public transportation is not very convenient. It is recommended to drive there. Although the mountain roads are winding, the scenery along the way is definitely worth it! ✨ The beauty of Songyang is the kind that makes you forget all your worries. Here, time seems to stand still, and life is no longer about rushing, but about feeling. Escape the city, stay in Songyang for a few days, and find your own slow life!
