Favorite thing: If you have hiked up or down Mt. Huangshan, you probably have bought a walking stick.

A walking stick is very useful even if you are just going up and down by cable cars and walking the steps on the top of Mt. Huangshan. Help you to balance and reduce the weight on your knees. You may not feel it in your knees now, you could feel it in the future.

Get one that is light and shorter that can fit into your luggage bag. Do not throw them away. Take them home as souvenir to remember those wonderful and tiring moments at Mt. Huangshan.

Favorite thing: Hong Cun is an amazing village where the water flow through the entire town for use of each household. It is a place for budding artists and film directors.

A wonderful village worth visiting after the majestic grandeur of Huangshan.

Favorite thing: There are many tourist attractions after your visit to Huangshan that are worth dropping by before returning to town:

1) Tea house that demonstrate different method of preparing tea and the different kind of tea for you to sample. Buying the tea is optional and usually can be pricey especially the specialty Huangshan tea.

2) A snake farm that sell all part of the snake for medicinal value and a bear pit where you can hang apples for the bears to stand on their two paws or throw in a live chicken. Please do not do the latter.

Favorite thing: When there is rolling clouds, the scenery of Huangshan is enhanced and becomes heavenly. Suddenly the sun shine, then the clouds covered forever.

TIP: So take your pictures fast and early in the morning for when the day proceeds, the clouds may blanket everything.

TIP: Do not spend too much at one spot, there are so many beautiful vistas, that when you get to the other spots later, the clouds have covered everything.

Fondest memory: But on a rainy day, it felt like Autumn!

This is one place that you could have the "entire" place to yourself many a times.
In fact, on my visit, at most times, this entire mountain range was mine!

It can be scary but exciting as well...

Favorite thing: Before the sunset & when there's rain, the clouds in Huangshan can be spectacular.
It's moving & with the rugged mountains, it's basically like viewing a painting in the making.
A chinese painting!
It's a moving experience...

Unfortunately, no camera of mine could capture the essence of those spectacular moments!
I guess you'll have to do the works yourself & to see them for yourself! ;-)

Favorite thing: Huangshan is a landscape of your own imagination.
Over the years, artists & travelers have come up with their own version of what they saw.

Try it on your own.
It'll be a happy experiment & you'll be rewarded with moments of joy & thrills unimaginable until you are there yourself!
