💄Spicy Mom says: Likeng is an ancient village mainly inhabited by people with the surname Li, surrounded by mountains. Two mountain streams outside the village converge into a small river in the village, and Huizhou-style residences are built on both sides of the stream and river, with a unique architectural style.

I enjoy galloping on the road, experiencing the journey through myriad rivers and mountains, and the local customs and cultures. You can never predict whether the trials you face will lead you to muddy bumps or a rainbow after the rain! 🗺️ Itinerary The original plan was to drive from Shanghai to Jingdezhen, staying one night in Wuyuan's Huangling to see the rapeseed flowers and eat beef bone noodles before heading to Jingdezhen. However, as the rain god seems to have taken a liking to me, ever since I arrived in Jiangxi, thunderstorms have been relentless, forcing me to alter my route: Wuyuan Huangling — Wangkou Village — Likeng — Jingdezhen 📢 Attraction Introduction: ✅ Wangkou Village — Named for its location at the confluence of two rivers, with clear waters in front of the village, hence 'Wangkou' (meaning 'pond mouth'). The first settlers were descendants of Qi, with the village also known as 'Yongchuan' due to its long and flowing history. It is an ancient Huizhou village predominantly inhabited by the Yu clan. The village's unique architectural style, superb craftsmanship, and high cultural taste make Wangkou an exhibition garden of masterpieces of ancient Chinese folk architecture. It is not overly commercialized and retains the original simplicity of the local customs, highly recommended❗️ ⏱️ Duration of Visit: About 2 hours 🎫 Ticket Information: Single attraction adult ticket 55 yuan, children and the elderly free (also available: 5-day pass for 11 attractions 180 yuan) ⏰ Opening Hours: 07:30-17:00 Attraction Address: Wangkou Village, Jiangwan Town, Wuyuan County, Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province 🅿️ Parking Information: There is a small fee-based parking lot at the main entrance of the scenic area (free parking at the rear entrance, which also grants free admission 😁) ✅ Likeng — Likeng is an ancient village mainly inhabited by the Li clan, and is the closest scenic area to the county town on the Wuyuan eastern route. After spring, the hills are covered with golden yellow. There are many Huizhou-style buildings along the banks of the village streams. Climbing the hill along the path behind the village, you can overlook the entire view of Likeng. However, commercial development is quite intense, not highly recommended. ⏱️ Duration of Visit: About 3 hours 🎫 Ticket Information: Single attraction adult ticket 55 yuan, children and the elderly free (also available: 5-day pass for 11 attractions 180 yuan) ⏰ Opening Hours: 07:30-19:30 Attraction Address: Likeng Village, Jiangwan Town, Wuyuan County, Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province 🅿️ Parking Information: There is a fee-based parking lot at the main entrance of the scenic area 🏠 Accommodation Recommendation: We stayed at 👉 Wuyuan In the Wild Villa Luxury Resort Space Not far from Huangling, theirs is the only guesthouse on the mountain road, quite quiet. The guesthouse is pure white, quite photogenic. The guesthouse also has its own cafe and parking lot, perfect for a lazy afternoon tea when you don't feel like going out. 🥗 Dining Recommendation: Lunch was at 👉 'Home Sweet Home' Farmhouse Not particularly recommended but worth a try, the fresh bamboo shoots were indeed tender, and the landlady was very enthusiastic; Dinner was the internet-famous 👉 Fan's Beef Bone Noodles Not expensive, quite spicy, but lacking the fragrance of beef, not as amazing as imagined, just average. ⚠️ Notes: 1️⃣ The local Jiangxi cuisine is not as spicy as rumored, I found it rather mild; 2️⃣ Remember to enter Wangkou Village through the back door to avoid paying for a ticket; 3️⃣ It's best to visit Likeng in March or April, skip it during the summer as it often gets flooded; 4️⃣ If you have time for a longer visit, consider buying a combo ticket, otherwise visiting just one spot is enough.

Wuyuan Record📝North Line➕East Line||| On the first day, we first explored the Sixi Yancun on the North Line. This ancient village left a deep impression on me. Although it does not have a strong commercial atmosphere, it retains the original Huizhou architecture, giving people a simple feeling. In the village, we even met a guide dog. Perhaps worried that we would get lost, it always guided us to walk in front. However, when we walked to the exit, the dog no longer followed, and we had to say goodbye. This scene made me feel particularly moved. Then, we went to Bench Bridge, but it is said that after the flood, this attraction no longer exists, so it is not highly recommended to go. Of course, if you still want to go, it's best to do some research in advance. While strolling in the village, we also took a photo with the internet celebrity old man leading the cow. We and another family pooled 20💰 to take the photo, which is also an interesting memory. Then we came to Jujing Village, which is a round village, giving people a special feeling. It's definitely worth a visit👍 In the evening, we stayed in Shicheng to prepare for the morning fog view the next day. Unfortunately, it rained the next morning, and we only captured a little bit of morning fog, which was somewhat regrettable. On the second day, we came to Likeng on the East Line. There are many people sketching here, and the stone bridge is the most famous attraction here, giving people a feeling of Jiangnan water town. Afterwards, we also went to Shangtan Village, which is a free attraction, but I personally think it's very worth visiting. There are many natural landscapes and ancient buildings here, which make people linger.

But there are many people, it is recommended to stay for one night, and you can take a good photo of drying autumn before 8 o'clock the next morning. 3⃣️Shangtan Village (P4, P8, P15) The filming location of "I am not Pan Jinlian", there is a thousand-year-old camphor tree at the entrance of the village, and the old people in the village are chatting under the tree, and you can also take a bamboo raft and walk on the bench bridge, walking in the landscape painting. 4⃣️Sanye Bridge (P13, P14) An ancient bridge with a history of more than 200 years, located in the Duanxin Reservoir, it will be exposed to the water surface every year during the dry season, surrounded by alpine meadows, and there are cows and sheep eating grass, especially healing~ The navigation is not easy to find, Gaode map can directly search for "Sanye Bridge". 5⃣️Chaguan Village (P1, P2)-Hongguan Village (P9, P16) The two villages are next to each other. The most classic of Chaguan Village is the ancient bridge at the entrance of the village, which has a history of 500 years. The old man leading the cow is a paid performance. Hongguan Village is upstream of the stream, the village is larger, you can stroll along the stream, you will see a very large thousand-year-old camphor tree. 6⃣️Zhang Village (P3, P5, P12) The most famous is the bench bridge of about 120 meters. Every year in April and May during the flood season, the river will rise and wash away the bench bridge. In September and October during the dry season, it will be rebuilt to facilitate the villagers to go to the mountains for farming. In this way, the bench bridge also has the meaning of life reincarnation. The bench bridge was not rebuilt when I went there at the end of September recently. It is also very good to experience bamboo rafting here. You can check in at the bench bridge in Shangtan Village. 7⃣️Wuyuan State (P17) "Drunk and don't know the sky is in the water, the boat is full of clear dreams and stars", the most popular air loft is here, there are fireworks and iron flower performances on holidays, it is recommended to come here for night tour.
