From Huangshan to Wuyuan

Hi, We are planning to make a day trip to Wuyuan in March (around 30th or 31st). Can you pls advice,
1. Is it right time to see rape seed flowers in Wuyuan.
2. Mode of transportation from HS to Wuyuan. If we hire a taxi or a private cab, how much will it be?
3. Best scenic places to visit in Wuyuan.

Also is there any options for Vegan food in HS?

Thanks & Regards Rajan

1. The time is right. Rape seed flowers generally bloom from the early March to the end of April;
2. There is only two buses from HS Tunxi Bus Station to Wuyuan. I suggest you to take a high speed train from HS North Railway Station to Wuyuan. There are 13 trains a day and the trip only takes 22min. The ticket for a hard seat is CNY 35.
3. Wuyuan is famous for its countryside scenery. Besides the rape flowers, Likeng Village, Jiangwan Village, Rainbow Bridge, and Moon Bay are also very beautiful.
Hope you enjoy your staying there!
