Hongchun-Village-Anhui-China

Hongcun village at the foot of Mount Huangshan has long been regarded as one of China's most beautiful ancient villages, with its picture-perfect traditional stone courtyard buildings set against the mountains on a serene lake.

Acclaimed Chinese director Ang Lee took its beauty to the big screen in his martial arts epic "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and the village was added to UNESCO's World Cultural Heritage list in 2000.
