Viewpoint
Favor the classic viewpoint looking along the Yaojiang River in Huangyao toward the arched Dailong Bridge with jagged karst towers rising directly behind the town, showing banyan roots and flagstone paths in the foreground, the tranquil river water, stone bridge, and historic tile-roofed residences in the middle-ground, and the dramatic, mist-shrouded karst mountain spires rising into the sky in the background.
Palette
Green should be the predominant color, especially in the thick canopies of ancient banyans, bamboo groves along the Yaojiang, and vegetation clinging to karst peaks.
