Where Should I go: Jiangsu or Anhui?
Jiangsu
Jiangsu is a coastal province of China located just north of Shanghai. With a landscape abundant in lakes, rivers, and canals the region is extremely fertile, known for its quaint water towns and classical Chinese gardens. Its capital, Nanjing, dates back to the first dynasty period and is the birthplace of Wu culture.
Anhui
Exploring the Chinese province of Anhui is like walking around a painting. The picturesque mountains and the untouched villages make this a quiet escape from the harsh and loud cities surrounding it. Travelers should put Anhui on their list if they're seeking a glimpse into the China of the past.
Only a few hours from Shanghai or Hangzhou, this region is easy to access, but feels a world away.
