At the mountain peak 1,168 meters above sea level, there are vast healing meadows like those in Xinjiang, and Hobbit houses straight out of a fairy tale. The blue sky and white clouds are within reach, and the wind carries the scent of freedom. But don’t be fooled by this tranquility—the mountaintop also hides a "cliff heartbeat park"! The Sky Ladder Glass Bridge hangs hundreds of meters in the air, every step sends adrenaline soaring; the cliff swing flies out in an instant, you’re flying in the air while your soul chases behind! There’s also via ferrata climbing, rainbow slides, aerial bicycles… 10+ attractions that let you scream all the way down from the mountaintop.

Tips: 📍 Anji Cloud Grassland ⏰ 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM (Cable car down closes at 5:00 PM!) 🎢 Must-try: Cliff swing, Sky Ladder, Rainbow slide 💡 It’s windy at the top, bring a jacket; go early, there are so many attractions you won’t finish them all!

Just returned from Qiandao Lake and realized this place really needs a useful and detailed travel guide!! If you come to Qiandao Lake on the weekend, I recommend lazy travelers just copy this 2-day tour route directly. · 📝 Two-day tour route: Day 1: Qiandao Lake High-Speed Rail Station — Beer Town — Qiandao Lake Botanical Garden — Fish Street — City Lake Day 2: Southeast Lake Area Pier — Osmanthus Island — Tianchi Island — Huangshan Peak — Qiandao Lake High-Speed Rail Station . 🔖 Sightseeing tips: Transportation: There are direct shuttle buses from the high-speed rail station to most hotels in Qiandao Lake, which is very convenient. There are also shared electric bikes in the urban area, and buses basically cover all the scenic spots. · Beer Town: A European-style town with a small amusement park and food street. The lighthouse on the lake is the symbol of Qiandao Lake, but it’s only suitable for photo stops, no need to stay too long. · Qiandao Lake Botanical Garden: The red-roofed chapel by the lake is very photogenic, and there are many small animals. During winter time, sunset is around 5 PM, so you can watch the sunset before leaving the garden (the best sunset viewing spot is at the piano on the hill). · Southeast Lake Area Pier: If you only visit one place in Qiandao Lake, choose the Southeast Lake Area. At the pier, you can choose different routes for morning and afternoon cruises. "Huangshan Peak" is the most worthwhile island to visit; the mountaintop viewing platform overlooks the famous "All Under Heaven is for the Public." You can take a cable car or walk 20 minutes up the mountain. · City Lake: Located in the center of the bustling city area, the night view is beautiful. Taking a walk along the lake at night and enjoying the breeze is very pleasant. · 🏨 Accommodation: This time I blindly chose the super cost-effective "Qiandao Lake Holiday Hotel." The hotel is located in the urban area of Qiandao Lake, only a five-minute walk to City Lake. It’s also just 3 kilometers from the Southeast Lake Area Pier, so no need to get up early on purpose. The hotel is surrounded by lake and mountains, and the high-floor terrace offers a panoramic view of the lake and mountains. The hotel shares facilities with Minghao, featuring unique cave hot springs and many amusement facilities to choose from. .

It’s been 12 years since I last came to Wuhan. When I returned this time, a local friend said they wanted to arrange a special trip around Wuhan for me. They said it would take 2 days and 1 night to let me experience more sides of Wuhan. This time, we headed straight to Mulan Mountain in Huangpi, Wuhan. . 🏔 Wuhan 2-day 1-night surrounding travel route D1: Wuhan city ➡️ Yuehe Linquan Homestay ➡️ Shandao Li (Wuhan’s “Thousand Island Lake”) D2: Yuehe Linquan Homestay ➡️ Dayuwan Autumn Drying (Wuhan’s Little Wuyuan) ➡️ Wuhan city . 📸 Mulan Mountain - Yuehe Linquan My friend said Mulan Mountain is the weekend backyard garden for Wuhan people. He absolutely feels it has the vibe of Moganshan. He really likes this homestay; every time he comes here, he feels very relaxed and healed. Listening to the wind in the forest and the dappled light, having a forest therapy for body and mind and copying sutras, the mind clears, and peace comes. . 🚣‍♂️ Shandao Li This place really looks like Wuhan’s Thousand Island Lake. It’s about 20 minutes from Mulan Mountain. You can completely lie down under the trees by the lake, drink coffee, and daydream—that’s a serious activity here. You can also get active with kayaking and paddleboarding on the lake. If you’re lucky, the sunset here is truly stunning. Enjoying barbecue by the lake while feeling the lake breeze is really cozy. . 🍂 Dayuwan Autumn Drying and Village Cafe Autumn drying isn’t only in Wuyuan. You can also feel this autumn vibe in Dayuwan. I recommend going straight to VANAS Village Cafe here, drinking coffee while surrounded by autumn drying. The atmosphere is really on point!! . An unforgettable afternoon in Mulan Mountain, sitting cross-legged in the forest, sunlight filtering through the leaves casting dappled shadows, makes me eagerly look forward to the coming autumn here.

Gear and Clothing · Essentials: Power bank (photos and videos drain battery fast), camera/phone tripod (for long exposure fireworks shots), portable stool (many free spots have no seats). · Clothing: Autumn nights can be chilly; bring a light jacket or shawl. Wuxi and Qiandao Lake lakesides are windy; scarves are recommended. 3. Transport and Avoiding Pitfalls · Transport: Popular spots often have traffic jams; prioritize subway or bus.

The Lion City (狮城 / Shī Chéng), also called Shi Cheng, is one of China’s most fascinating hidden treasures — a real-life “Atlantis of the East.” Here’s its history: ⸻ 🏯 Origins · Built during the Eastern Han Dynasty (25–200 CE), Lion City was a thriving cultural, political, and economic hub in Zhejiang Province. · It sat at the foot of Wu Shi Mountain (Five Lion Mountain), which is how it got its name. · At its peak, it had grand arches, temples, pavilions, roads, and intricate carvings that reflected traditional Chinese architecture. ⸻ 🌊 Submersion · In 1959, during China’s rapid modernization, the government built the Xin’an River Hydroelectric Station — the country’s first large dam project. · To create Qiandao Lake (Thousand Island Lake), the valley was deliberately flooded. · As a result, Lion City was submerged under 40 meters (130 ft) of water, along with several other ancient towns. ⸻ 🔍 Rediscovery · For decades, Lion City remained forgotten until 2001, when divers rediscovered it. · To their surprise, the city was astonishingly well preserved: walls, gates, stone carvings, and even wooden structures remained intact because the water shielded them from wind and erosion. ⸻ 🐉 Today · Lying silently beneath Qiandao Lake, Lion City is now one of the world’s most spectacular underwater heritage sites. · Specialized diving tours allow adventurous travelers to explore its arches, temples, and carvings, frozen in time for over 1,300 years. · It is often called China’s Atlantis, blending history, mystery, and natural beauty. ⸻ ✨ Fun fact: Because of its preservation, Lion City is now considered one of the best examples of underwater archaeology in the world. Highlights from Qiandao Lake · Island Hopping – Explore clusters of lush islands, each with its own charm, from Monkey Island to Snake Island. · Lion City Underwater Ruins – Dive or take a glass-bottom boat to glimpse the submerged city’s stone arches and carvings. · Scenic Cruises – Sail across jade-green waters, especially stunning at sunrise and sunset. · Local Delicacies – Taste fresh fish head soup, a regional specialty you won’t forget. 🌟 Travel Tips · Best Time to Visit: March–November for mild weather and lush scenery. · How to Reach: · From Hangzhou: About 2 hours by bus from Hangzhou West Bus Station to Qiandao Lake Town. High-speed trains from Hangzhou to Chun’an (Qiandao Lake Station) take just over 1 hour. · From Shanghai: Around 3–3.5 hours by high-speed train to Qiandao Lake Station. · By Car: Driving from Hangzhou is straightforward and offers scenic countryside views. · Activity Tip: Try diving tours for a close encounter with the submerged Lion City — truly one of a kind! #QiandaoLake #ThousandIslandLake #HiddenCity #ChinaTravel #NatureAndHistory
