An ancient village of the Zhan clan deep in a mountain gorge: flanked by two streams and shaded by old trees, it was formerly known as "Little Peach Blossom Land." Thanks to its remote, deep-mountain location it remains barely commercialized and is still a pristine example of Wuyuan's original character; the Zhan ancestral hall and old residences are well preserved. Hikers can reach neighboring villages via an ancient post road, and even after the flower season it remains a quiet place to enjoy blossoms.
Getting there: self-drive from the county seat (approx. 60 km)
