[quote=GUEST81244,44062]Hi All,

I am planning 3 different trips to China later this year, all 3 around 15 days each. I wish to visit at least 1 or 2 ancient village or town that is worth at least half or a full day. So far, after much reading from guidebooks and forum, I found Lijiang, Pingyao and Fenghuang to be top choices and in this order. Please correct me if I am wrong or if you have other choice or opinions.

There are also these 2 places that I found  mentioned in Chinese guidebooks to be among the top too but English guidebooks just don't have them. Are these places new in popularity that English guidebooks have not known yet or are they popular only among the Chinese ? The names of these 2 places(in Mandarin pronounciation) are:

Wu Yuan(described as most beautiful village in 2 Chinese guidebooks) & Nan Si Jiang.

These 2 places are somewhere in south-east China, below Shanghai. When I refer to the maps by Insight and others English maps, I could not find any names that sounds close.

Thank you for any help.
