Also known as Huizhou prefecture, Huangshan is today widely associated with being the home of the picturesque Huangshan Mountain, or Yellow Mountain.
However, many people are not aware that the city is also renowned for its numerous remaining ancient buildings, which are distinctive and resemble ancient Huizhou-style buildings.
These houses are best known for the carvings on their components, be it wood, stone or brick.
