Things to do in Tunxi International Airport
Huangshan (Yellow Mountain) is one of China's most celebrated landscapes — granite peaks wrapped in cloud, ancient twisted pines clinging to vertical rock faces, and sea-of-clouds vistas that have shaped Chinese ink painting for a millennium. Cable cars make the main summits accessible without the full multi-hour ascent, though hiking down is highly recommended. The UNESCO-listed Hui-style villages of Hongcun and Xidi in the surrounding valley are equally extraordinary, with whitewashed courtyard houses reflected in millpond water.

Top Tips for Tunxi International Airport
- Take the cable car up and hike down — the descent trails wind through the most dramatic rock and pine scenery on the mountain.
- Book mountain guesthouses well in advance for peak season (May, September–October); an overnight stay lets you catch both sunset and sunrise from the summit area.
