in all, it was a memorable and tiring trip and i had lots of fun, tho there were disappointments here and there.
Here comes the story and pictures xDD
day1: trip to huangshan
woke up at 6>< should be the earliest i woke after my flight from sg- shanghai. body was screaming for more sleep, but my mind tell me not to. quickly got changed in the chilly morning(was a torture). left my house at 7 and took bus towards my destination along with the aunties and my family(you will see them in the pictures later).
7am -1pm, all the way on bus stopped by therest stations along thehigh wayfor few afew times to pee xDD no one can hold theirpee for6 hrs are there?
so, i had my lunch on the bus, just eat here and there. 2 hard boiled eggs(茶叶蛋) 1 sandwich and a few biscuits. poor lunch. i know =( but too bad since its on the bus, cant complain much.
reached at 1.30 pm and immediately started touring at 宏村(a village, very old one and usually one village has only 1 surname,i.e everyone in the village has the same surname.)
here are the pictures:

after the trip at 宏村 went to hotel to rest:D
the hotel i live in xD nice toilet eh? if only i share the room with megan fox :P
nth much happened after that. dinner. then sleep :D:D oh and, ihad a warm bathe beforei sleeppp. warm and cozy.
day 2:
woke up at 630 and leaft the house at 7 to eat breakfast =( tiring. after breakfast went to the Emerald Vally ( though its called the emerald vally on the map, ill prefer to clal it the crystal jade vally since its called 翡翠谷, for people who understand chinese would know why =D) crystal jade vally, also known as the lover's vally. only 4 of the 11 of us went to this vally, rest of the 7 stayed at the hotel to play golf ==
the story begins very long ago where the vally wasnt discovered yet. there were 36 pairs of male and female who went on the exploration and after going through lots of hardship out of the36 pairs, 20 of them became couples which is 患难见真情. thus known as the lover's vally(情人谷)
more pictures to come with!

okay, after this trip at emerald vally, went back to hotel at around 2. i had my lunch at about 1 at some local restaurant, not bad. cheap and tasty. haha had around 5-6 people serving of food andcost only about 60 sgd.
go back hotel meet up with the aunties that went to play golf. and straight away head for 花山谜窟(hua shan's mysterious cave).
story of the cave:
this cave was discovered at aroind 1930 and only 2 out of the 36 areas was excavated. it is presumed that it is built 1700 yrs ago which is the san guo's time (三国时代). and there is 3 mystery to this cave:
1. it is amazingly huge,one of the cave i went to is as big as 30 basketball courts. and its only 1 out of 36 caves. and it has no records of the digging of this cave. totally zero.
2. this cave is so perfectly built as tho its modern digging, however according to the stones and evidences its built 1700yrs ago, thats the second mystery
3. the cave was so big that i would never been completed in just one dynasties, which also means that all dynasties are coviering the fact that this cave is build, and for what purpose, thats the third mystery.
here are the pictures of the cave:
the big name of the cave xD
