Huangyan Culture & Travel|2025-02-19 13:26:21

Huangyan, known for its thousand-year legacy of sweetness, offers a unique mix of nature, culture, and creativity. Renowned as the "Hometown of Chinese Honey Oranges," its golden groves along the Yongning River fill the autumn air with a refreshing fragrance, while juicy bites burst with flavor. Local persimmons in Xiang’ao Village, like hidden red lanterns, add to the vibrant autumn scenery.

The city’s culinary delights extend beyond fruit. Treats like the smooth, sweet "Shanfenhu" (a kind of starch paste with a diverse array of ingredients) and crispy "Egg White with Lamb Tail" showcase Huangyan’s rich food heritage. Desserts such as soft Meihua Cake and Wild Black Rice Mochi bring warmth and joy in every bite.

Huangyan’s sweetness also shines through its cultural products. Plush toys inspired by local flavors—like honey oranges or the noodles with ginger soup—capture the city’s charm with their cute designs.

Whether you’re savoring local desserts, breathing in the scent of ripe oranges, or taking home an adorable plush, Huangyan offers a heartwarming blend of tradition, innovation, and natural beauty.
