2026 Boluo Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in August)

Huizhou 3 days 2 nights | Dongjiang Hakka ancient town · Yanzhou wetland secret spot · Nankunshan valley summer escape guide (July–September) This itinerary avoids the popular beaches of Xunliao Bay and Shuangyue Bay. Huizhou is more than a coastal resort; it’s a thousand-year-old Dongjiang ancient city, featuring pristine island wetlands, the original valleys of Nankunshan, 500-year-old Hakka walled villages, and rich Dongjiang cultural heritage. From July to September, mountain temperatures are 7℃ cooler than the city. Lotus ponds bloom, egrets flock on the tidal flats, and after afternoon showers, the views clear up. The focus is on ancient alleys and culture, valley creek trekking, untouched tidal flats for relaxation, and visits to intangible cultural heritage villages. This route is completely different from any other coastal city. 1. Travel period notes (July–September) From July to August, Nankunshan’s streams are full, West Lake’s lotus ponds are in full bloom, and egrets return to roost in the Yanzhou mangroves at dusk. Days in the city are hot and humid, so ancestral halls, museums, and forested areas are best for midday cooling. September brings dry sea breezes, making seafood and wild mountain ingredients taste their best. Outdoor activities are best in early morning and evening. Mountains and coast have heavy humidity day and night, with noticeable temperature drops after dark. Essentials: high SPF sunscreen, umbrella for sun and rain, non-slip creek trekking shoes, strong mosquito repellent, light jacket, tide-gathering tools, ID card 2. Before you go (booking + transport + accommodation) 🎫 Tickets and reservations Luofu Mountain Chongxu Ancient Temple 60 CNY; Nankunshan Stone River wonder 30 CNY; Yanzhou Island is free, Guanyin Mountain windmill viewing platform has no ticket fee Huang Siyang Hakka ancient village is free; Huizhou Museum is free with WeChat reservation, closed on Mondays; Fengzhuyuan, Dongjiang Sand Park, and Fanhe ancient village are all free; Donghu hotel site is free for registered visits. 🚗 Main transport High-speed rail to Huizhou North Station is most convenient; Huicheng old town is best explored by bike. For Nankunshan and Yanzhou Island, carpooling with four people is safest for these remote spots. Mountain roads are winding and rainy season is not recommended for self-driving with regular cars. Avoid: low-cost roadside one-day shopping tours by the sea; do not drive into muddy tidal flats on Yanzhou; avoid following unlicensed guides into undeveloped wild streams in Nankunshan. 🏨 Accommodation choices Huicheng Jindai Street old town (top choice): 170–280 CNY, established Hakka snack area, central for rural shuttle buses, away from tourist price hikes Longmen Nankunshan foothills (summer escape choice): 160–270 CNY, right by forest streams, cool by day, no light pollution at night for stargazing Avoid: beachfront trendy homestays in summer due to humidity and mosquitoes; mountain-top homestays lack facilities and have unstable water and power. 3. 3 days 2 nights itinerary (ancient village + valley, two distinct routes) Day 1 Huizhou Museum → Fengzhuyuan lotus pond → Jindai Street ancient alley → Shuidong Street night view 9:00 indoor museum visit to explore Dongjiang history and Hakka culture, climate-controlled to escape the heat 14:00 stroll Fengzhuyuan, Lingnan garden lotus ponds in full bloom, shaded paths with no direct sun 16:30 Jindai Street original old street, well-preserved Ming and Qing residences and ancestral halls, no commercial renovation 19:30 walk along Dongjiang riverbank, ancient street lights reflecting on the water, taste authentic old town snacks Stay: Huicheng hotel Day 2 Nankunshan forest park → Stone River wonder creek trekking → Chuanlong waterfall 8:30 depart for Nankunshan, vast original broadleaf forest, mountain air rich in negative ions 13:00 rest and lunch at a farmhouse at the foot of the mountain, avoiding midday sun 15:30 hike Stone River wonder, wade through clear mountain pools and shallow streams to cool off, pass through bamboo forest secrets 18:30 wait for mountain sunset at the summit viewing platform, cool evening breeze for full relaxation Stay: Huicheng hotel Day 3 Yanzhou Baisha village mangroves → Huang Siyang walled village → buy souvenirs and return 9:00 head to Yanzhou Island, boardwalk through sea mangroves, tidal flats stretch endlessly at low tide 13:30 visit Huang Siyang 500-year-old Hakka village, oyster shell walls and old walled houses well preserved, experience Hakka architecture 15:30 shop in the city for specialties like preserved mustard greens and Mapo meatballs, pack and head to the station for departure 4. Local food highlights (unique to Dongjiang Hakka, not overlapping with Cantonese city cuisine) Hengli soup rice noodles: broth made from earth fish and shrimp shells, pork offal braised flavor with rice noodles, unique Huizhou breakfast, about 13 CNY per person Mapo meatballs: hand-pounded a thousand times, springy and tasty, best in clear soup to savor original flavor, about 32 CNY per person Ama jiao: 300-year intangible heritage snack, fried radish shredded batter, crispy outside and soft inside, about 5 CNY per person Dongjiang braised goose: slow-braised goose in sauce, tender skin and fragrant meat, signature dish at Dongjiang banquets, about 52 CNY per person Shankeng snail chicken: Nankunshan specialty, creek snails cooked with free-range chicken over firewood, about 48 CNY per person Radish cake: mugwort rice skin wrapped with cured meat and dried shrimp, steamed or pan-fried, traditional Hakka snack, about 8 CNY per person 5. Exclusive pitfalls to avoid (unique to this guide) 1. Valley and wetland activities ❌ Avoid entering Nankunshan canyon at noon; UV rays in the forest can still cause sunburn. Early morning is best for mountain visits ❌ Do not climb over railings into deep pools at Stone River wonder; underwater rocks are sharp. Stick to official trails only ❌ Always check tide tables before entering Yanzhou tidal flats; do not go into deep mud areas where you can get stuck 2. Suburban transport ❌ Avoid self-driving on rainy days on Nankunshan winding mountain roads; carpooling in an SUV is safer ❌ Bridges to Yanzhou Island are prone to heavy traffic during holidays, try to depart before 8 AM 3. Dining and spending ❌ Hakka restaurants near scenic spots tend to be overpriced; old town local eateries offer generous portions and transparent prices ❌ Ask seafood prices in advance at seaside stalls; self-selecting ingredients at Aotou market with cooking service offers better value ❌ Hakka cuisine is salty and savory; request lighter seasoning if preferred 4. Customs and travel details ❌ Always ask permission before photographing residents or old walled houses in Hakka villages; keep quiet inside ancestral halls ❌ Mosquitoes are abundant in forests and mangroves; apply strong mosquito repellent before going out ❌ Mountain weather changes quickly; bring a raincoat first. Strong valley winds can easily damage umbrellas 6. Overall summary Huizhou from July to September breaks the usual coastal resort image. It lacks the artistic island vibe of Xiamen or the lively ancient city feel of Chaoshan. Half the city is the thousand-year-old Dongjiang old town and Hakka walled villages, the other half is hidden primitive valleys and pristine sea wetlands. Mountains, lakes, rivers, and sea blend into one. Spend mornings in museums learning Dongjiang Hakka history, afternoons in deep mountain valleys escaping summer heat, evenings waiting for egrets to return in mangroves, and enjoy meals with unique Dongjiang Hakka flavors. Avoid peak crowds at popular beaches, respect local customs, and steer clear of souvenir sales to see the quiet, authentic side of this Lingnan ancient city.

There's plenty of activity for a full day without getting bored. After swimming, there are convenient shower rooms and changing areas, so you don't have to worry about getting wet. And a special highlight is the pizza-making activity 🍕, from kneading the dough to baking it yourself.

Last week, I really didn't want to stay in the city, so I grabbed a friend and floored it into the mountains of Huizhou. I didn't have high expectations at first, but it turned out to be a wonderful surprise! It felt like stepping into a scene from a heartwarming movie️. There were a few small animals in the courtyard, lazily lying around, not afraid of people at all. In that moment, it felt like half the stress from the week at work was washed away. The guesthouse isn’t big, but you can see the care put into every corner. The rooms are so clean and comforting, and the biggest surprise is that each room has a private hot spring soaking pool! They use mountain spring water, and you can adjust the temperature however you like. At night, turn off the lights, soak while listening to the sound of the stream outside the window, and you won’t even want to look at your phone—completely relaxing♨️. The next day, I woke up naturally and even sat by the stream for a while; the water was very clear and cool to the touch. There’s nothing you have to do—just bask in the sun, daydream, and stroll at your own pace. This kind of place is really perfect to go with that person you can be with “without needing to talk and without feeling awkward.” Or just come alone, spend two quiet days—it’s more healing than anything else.

“Lingnan’s Number One Mountain,” favored by Su Shi, hides a fairyland sea of clouds and earthly warmth “Under Luofu Mountain, spring lasts all year round, with reed oranges and bayberries blooming in turn.” This line by Su Shi planted a seed of longing for Luofu Mountain in my heart. Finally, in this crisp autumn season, I set off on a journey to Boluo, Huizhou, to witness the true face of this “Lingnan’s Number One Mountain.” 🌄 The mountain doesn’t see me, I go to see the mountain At 7 a.m., I entered through the scenic area gate, where the air was filled with the fresh scent of plants. My first stop was Bailian Lake, its water like a mirror reflecting the gray tiles and yellow walls of Chongxu Ancient Temple, dotted with a few water lilies. The autumn atmosphere of Lingnan here becomes vivid and tangible. Following the trail, Chongxu Ancient Temple came into view. This Taoist sacred site, built during the Eastern Jin Dynasty over 1600 years ago, was where Ge Hong practiced Taoism and alchemy. Standing before the ancient temple, it felt as if I could hear echoes of history and sense the unique tranquility and ethereal quality of this “immortal mountain.” 🚠 Above the cable car, the sea of clouds surges At noon, I took the cable car up the mountain. The gondola slowly ascended, revealing a lush green carpet of scenery beneath, with mountains stretching far and wide. About 20 minutes later, I arrived at Eagle Beak Rock, a giant stone shaped like an eagle spreading its wings—an excellent vantage point to overlook the mountain views. Continuing to climb from Eagle Beak Rock, the 313 steps of Hero Slope tested my strength and willpower. When I finally stood at Feiyun Peak at an altitude of 1,296 meters, all fatigue was healed by the breathtaking sight—endless mountain ranges and a rolling sea of clouds, as if immersed in a fairyland. 🍗 Earthly warmth, flavors of Luofu After descending, I rewarded myself with an authentic Hakka meal. Luofu Mountain kiln chicken is a must-order signature dish, with crispy skin, tender meat, and juicy smoothness; followed by a bowl of Luofu Mountain tofu pudding, brewed with the local sweet spring water, melting in the mouth with a refreshing sweetness that relieves fatigue. 💡 Travel Tips · Recommended routes: For the physically fit, choose the hiking route (Scenic Area Gate 2 → Lion Peak → Eagle Beak Rock → Hero Slope → Feiyun Peak, about 4-6 hours in total); for a relaxed visit, take the cable car up and then hike about 2 hours to the summit · Ticket info: Scenic area tickets cost about 54-60 RMB per person; cable car one-way 70 RMB, round-trip 120 RMB · Transportation guide: Drive and navigate to “Luofu Mountain Scenic Area”; take high-speed rail to “Luofu Mountain Station” then transfer to bus 268 · Best season: October to December for crisp autumn weather and high chance of sea of clouds; March to April to enjoy rhododendron flower seas The beauty of Luofu Mountain lies not only in its majestic and rugged scenery but also in the poetic and Zen spirit that blends with its mountains and waters. It’s worth a visit—walk slowly, breathe deeply, and let your heart settle in the mountains.

Finally checked in at the newly opened bynaked Naked Heart Huizhou · Boluo! This secluded paradise hidden in the mountains of Boluo truly lives up to its reputation✨ 🌿Vacation Experience The entire resort is built along the mountain, preserving the original forest landscape.

Located in the Luoyang Street area of Boluo County, Huizhou City, it has become a popular "European fairy tale town" check-in spot in recent years. The town replicates elements of Austria's Hallstatt, including the iconic spire church, colorful wooden houses, lakeside European castles, cobblestone streets, and Gothic-style architecture, creating a strong European town atmosphere perfect for photography and social media posts. On both sides of the streets, there are cafes, artistic shops, a white church, and a lawn square. The proportions and roof shapes closely resemble the original town, forming a highly "themed" European-style scenic space.

It is located in a valley, with Dongpo culture as its soul and Song Dynasty architecture as its framework. The millennium-old hot springs flow throughout, offering a poetic journey through a thousand years when visiting with kids. 🎋 First impression shock: The thousand-meter Dragon Pearl Corridor The first impression upon entering the hotel is the thousand-meter-long "Dragon Pearl Corridor," winding over the lake. White walls and black tiles, lanterns hanging high, reflected in the water, seemingly endless. Children run happily along the corridor like little birds. At the end of the corridor is the hotel's "spring eye," where genuine hot spring water gushes out, steaming hot, allowing you to directly feel the earth's warmth. ⛩️ Accommodation: Stay in a Song-style elegant gathering The hotel rooms are styled like Chinese villa courtyards. We stayed in the "Lake View Pavilion." The room has a very high ceiling and uses natural wood tones, simple and elegant. The best part is the balcony facing the central lake view and distant mountains, offering a broad view. The bathroom is huge, with a square large soaking tub filled with 100% original hot spring water. At night, lighting incense and soaking with the kids instantly melts away travel fatigue. 🚣 A unique "Xianxia" experience: Rowboat check-in This is the hotel's most distinctive feature! You can check in by "rowboat," boarding a black-awning boat at the dock. The boatman rows slowly along the stream to your room’s private dock. Bamboo forests line both banks, mist swirling, like scenes from a martial arts movie. This experience is novel and unforgettable for kids; we rode back and forth several times. 🌿 Parent-child activities: A blend of culture and nature Dongpo culture experience: The hotel is filled with Su Dongpo’s poetry and stories.

Taking photos on the lawn across the lake with red roofs, blue sky, and lake in the frame looks just like a fairy tale postcard~ Walk along the 4,500-acre Jiulong Lake trail, no need to find special angles, every snap is a healing scene, perfect for stress relief and relaxation. 💰 Tickets Adult ticket 50 RMB/person, choose one of two major benefits: ① Exchange for an ecological scenic area ticket (including the lake-seeking trail); ② Deduct from most merchants’ consumption in the town, deduction requires scanning a QR code with the waiter, valid only on the day, no change given. 🚗 Transportation & Parking Recommended driving: Navigate to "Zhonglv Anaya Jiulong Lake South Gate," about 1 hour from Tianhe. Parking in the park is 8 RMB/hour, capped at 50 RMB/day. Driving to the town center is about 1 km; you can directly navigate to "Anaya Art Center" and park roadside, then walk. Public transport: Take Metro Line 14 to Xinhe Station Exit A, then a taxi for 18 minutes. After taking the bus to Jiulong Lake Resort Station, a walk is required, which is less convenient than driving. 📍 Efficient Check-in Route Enter from the south gate → Anaya Art Center (check out nearby shops) → European Main Street (shopping + photos) → Old Church (key photo spot) → Lakeside Trail (walk and enjoy lake views) → Castle exterior check-in → Return (if time allows, visit the hilltop viewing platform for a lake panorama). ⚠️ Notes There aren’t many shops to browse in the town; the main fun is photographing European architecture. Don’t come just for shopping to avoid disappointment. The ecological lake park requires a separate ticket (50 RMB/person, no consumption deduction), not cost-effective unless you especially like hiking and sightseeing, so extra spending is not recommended. The park has many stairs, making it inconvenient for strollers and wheelchairs. Families with children or special needs should be cautious. 💭 Came here with the mindset of "checking out a trendy spot," but ended up totally captivated by the atmosphere! The 50 RMB ticket allows for photos and coffee/snack deductions, really great value. Spend the weekend here walking, taking photos, and enjoying afternoon tea—the fatigue of city life instantly disappears.
