2 Days Road Trip to HuiZhou
I was suppose to update this way back, not purposely MIA again. There was customer audits, kids sick, preparing investor audit documents! HA! I think 24 hours is not enough for me. Its really very tiring when kids get sick, especially when they gotten cold. Something I don’t like consulting medicinal assistance in China is any illness, doctors always ask patients to go for dripping. For kids as well! My poor kid has to have the needle insert through the head!!! No choice I’m not staying in the city where more choices of clinics or hospital.
Anyway, back to the topic! OK, Hui Zhou is actually between Hangzhou & Huangshan, a very small town (district) but with rich historial background. From Shanghai to Hui zhou takes about 5 hours crazy drive, where we passed by Jiaxing (Famous of its rice dumplings) & Hangzhou.
The scenery was awesome, with all the mountains & rice fields. A good place for a few days getaway, but not much visitors, there were basically 1 or 2 cars on the road when we about to reach Huizhou. There were also not much introduction in English on Hui Zhou, as usually people goes to Huangshan straight away instead of dropping by.
Below are some photos I have taken, didn’t take much cause the weather was wet plus need to carry the kids.
^Must try the rice dumpling! They have lots of varieties. ^_^
^ Taken when the babies are asleep.
^ I was joking with PC to imagine we are in Malaysia highway.
^ See no cars, in-front is my colleagues. Only 2 cars on the highway!
^ Our 1st destination, forgotten the name of it. ^_^
^ Huizhou has lots of this, basically is to honour great people.
^ All the old houses in Huizhou has this, it was said to keep fortune/wealth. As water in Chinese is regarded as wealth, hence, by letting the water/rain falling in, it was believe that the family will be in good fortune.
^ Love this, so calming when looking at it.
^ Now I understand why some Chinese elderly love to grow these plants, cause this thing actually worth RMB 5million. Unbelievable!
^ Does this place looks familiar? hahaha…if you have watch the “Couching Tiger” you will know. Zang Ziyi, bounce on the water & fly away! hahaha..
^ This was the last place we went, a village with all the surname “Bao” (鲍).
I suggest to dropby this place for people going to Huangshan, worth while to take 1/2 a day visiting this place.
As for accommodation, I suggest to stay in Huangshan, more convenience, there are lots of shops & budget hotels there. But must book in advance, otherwise weekend are usually fully book.
