👣Footprints: Lishui Ancient Weir Painting Village

The real Jiangnan

Lishui Ancient Weir Painting Village

The work has been long, the days have been long,

I have experienced many things,

Staying in the same environment for a long time,

You will find that branches slowly grow on your body,

They don't sprout upward,

Instead, drag down.

I can no longer be as free and easy as before,

I can't be as open as before.

so

Set off!

The branches that break free from restraint,

Break through the invisible shackles.

on the way

To experience the hardships of the journey,

To feel the snow, moon, wind and flowers,

Go and measure the world with your steps.

Car Rental Guide for Self-Driving Tours

📌Software: Linkage Cloud Car Rental

💰Price: 89 yuan/day on weekdays and 180+ yuan/day on holidays

💰Car rental fee: 695 (3-day fare) + 245 (gas fee) = 940

📌Reason for recommendation: Cheap and convenient

Before we even set off, we had compared almost all the car rental platforms!

Before May Day, the price on car rental platforms for a week was still 188 yuan/day. By May Day, it had risen to more than 400 yuan a day. It was terrifying!

When we came to Lishui, we accidentally searched for this software. Although the price increased during the May Day holiday, this price is the usual price of the car rental platform. The longer the rental time, the cheaper it is.

The key is! You can rent a car at the parking lot next to Lishui High-speed Railway Station! ! ! Just turn a corner and get the car! !

Three-day self-driving tour route

📍day 1 Lishui—(40min drive)—Guyan Painting Township

📍day 2 Huaxiang—(1h drive)—Yuanxiang Shangtian—(2h)—Yunhe Rice Terraces

📍day3 Yunhe Terraced Fields—(2.5h)—Xiandu Scenic Area—Lishui City

Although there are few scenic spots, the beautiful scenery is all along the way.

Guyan Painting Village

👉Highlights: fishing boats on the Oujiang River, big banyan trees in scenic spots, simple folk customs that are commercial yet original, and the water flow of the Oujiang River

👉Duration of play: one day

👉Tickets: Ticket + cruise ship 50 RMB

(When we went, the scenic spot happened to be attractive, so we only paid 20RMB for the round-trip boat ticket)

👉Accommodation: Accommodation in Huaxiang is not expensive, the price is around 100.

(The chicken next to the hotel where we stayed crowed at 4 o'clock in the morning, followed by various human voices, car bells, and ding-ding-dong-dang urging us to get up...)

👉Food: braised creek fish, fried screws

(Most of the delicacies in Huaxiang are small stir-fry dishes. No matter which store you go to, it should be good. Because it is close to Oujiang River, Xiyu is a must-try)

📍Travel manual: This picture was "stolen" from other travel notes. It summarizes the major attractions of the painting town very well.

▲ Jiangbin Ancient Street

The first part is Jiangbin Ancient Street, which is full of various shops, just like other commercial streets. But because the water level has dropped, when walking along the river, stepping on the cobblestones, watching the moss growing on the stone steps, and the dense ivy covering the entire wall in the alleys between the houses, I can't help but sigh that the reputation of the Painting Township is well-deserved.

After lunch, take a nap at the hotel and set off on a cruise at 3pm to Baoding Pier.

If there is any difference between the two sides, it might be that the Baoding Wharf side allows you to be closer to the water and the banyan trees are more lush.

When we got on the boat, it was not crowded. The boat slowly turned around in the waves of the Ou River and walked towards the depths of the reeds.

Attractions here: Tongji Canal and Wenchang Pavilion. The order of my tour is also from passing by the river to walking through the shops.
