Anhui surprises me |
| To be honest, I had no idea what to expect as I have never travelled to China before, and was quite surprised and pleased with what it has to offer. |

Anhui revisited |
| I was fortunate enough to embark on the charming land of Anhui a second time on June 21, 2010 (my first trip to Anhui was made only a month ago), participating in the1st National Web Media Anhui Travel Trip. |

Day two of trip: Hongcun Village |
| The other aspect I loved about Anhui is its ancient villages. I visited Hongcun Village on my second day in Huangshan city, Anhui. |

Day one of trip: Huangshan Mountain |
| It was in Anhui that I both truly experienced and saw China. Anhui province, with its stunning Huangshan Mountain and beautiful old towns, was what I pictured China to be based on the movies I've watched and the books I've read. |

Believing is everything |
| Huangshan Mountains, located in the south of Anhui province, was originally known as Mt Yishan. It was renamed to Huangshan Mountains in AD 747 by Emperor Xuanzong of Tang dynasty in recognition of the legendary Huang Di, who was the reputed ancestor of the Chinese people and who made magic pills for immortality here. |

Where's the rush? You are in Hefei |
| Whenever I talk about my hometown with my foreign friends, I like to make fun of its name - Hefei - which means "two fat men together". |
