I have read travel reviews about Wuyuan in north Jiangxi Province and without exception the writers all described it as "the most beautiful village in China." Trying to escape from the urban hubbub while finding out if the common opinion is true, I set off on a trip to Wuyuan on March 31.

Travel starts from Shanghai

The bus departed from People's Square at 8:30 pm and after a 9-hour ride we arrived in Wuyuan County in the early morning. It started raining after our arrival, but this didn't dampen my excitement because I had always thought that villages south of the Yangtze River were more delightful on rainy days than on clear days.
