Features: The layered green peaks of Mount Huangshan and Mount Baiyue, the misty waters of the Xin'an River, this land in the low mountain and hilly areas of southern Anhui, has nurtured the once glorious Huizhou culture. At the solitary fisherman's ferry on the ancient Yuliang, amidst the Huizhou-style alleys with tiled roofs, painted walls, and decorative gargoyle ends, in the "four waters converging to the hall" Tianchi Courtyard, in the delicate window lattices and bracket ends, on the weathered walls, among the dilapidated ruins of ancestral halls and memorial archways, amidst the desolate smoke, tangled grass, and drifting petals, I read the scattered remnants of past memories preserved deep in the depths of historical memory.
