900 Years of Grace: The Story of Hongcun Village

#chinatravel 🐂 Old Lanes and Alleyways What to capture: Narrow stone-paved lanes, doorways, calligraphy plaques, old bicycles, villagers at work. Why it’s special: These lanes show authentic daily life, untouched by time. Best time: Morning when the light filters through rooftops and fewer crowds are around. 📸 Pro Tip: Shoot in portrait orientation to emphasize the verticality and depth of the alleyways.
