Gaoyiling Tourist Area is a natural attraction centered on Danxia landforms. Unlike many Danxia views that feature only mountains without water, this area's red cliffs and crimson rock faces are dotted with emerald pools, and the lake at the foot of the hills is as clear as jade. Viewed from above, dark green pools encircle the crimson ridges, often vividly likened to a "heavenly lake" embracing an "octopus," with the contrast between red and green creating a highly distinctive scene. The attraction's trail runs along the mountain ridge, with the core highlights concentrated at several spots: Dragon's Back Ridge, Monitor Lizard Lake, and the cliffside plank walkway. Dragon's Back Ridge is a narrow ridge at the top of the mountain, with sheer cliffs on both sides; walking along it offers a panoramic view of the Danxia landscape, and it is also a popular photo spot. Monitor Lizard Lake takes its name from a Danxia rock formation in the lake that resembles a monitor lizard lying in wait; during the dry season the rock's full outline is revealed, vivid and lifelike. The cliffside plank walkway is built against the cliff face, with a deep canyon below, leading to a sliver of sky — stone walls press in on both sides, and at the narrowest point only two people can squeeze through sideways. The Hundred-Step Sky Ladder is a steep flight of stone steps, and after reaching the top the view opens up wide. The tour route follows the ridge trail as its main line, with little shade along the way and strong sun exposure. Danxia elements such as mountains, waters, springs, caves, villages, cliffs, and flatlands are all present here; among them, "flatland" is the local term for flat areas atop Danxia peaks, and the Meili Flat area is planted with bamboo groves, serving as a rest stop along the hike.

I initially thought this scenic area would be rather ordinary, but it exceeded my expectations. It's a well-managed area. Although it was misty on the mountain, the climate was very comfortable, with occasional light drizzle. I brought a raincoat, which was both rainproof and windproof, keeping me warm. Along the way, there were cute little murals that attracted the children to walk and breathe in the fresh air of nature. The cable car even had small fans, and the glass bridge had national flags flying.

It is said to be the largest square walled house in China. When we went there, there were almost no tourists. We hired a guide to explain the site. The price was a bit high at 100 yuan, but the service was good. The overall feeling was spectacular, and the outdoor scenic area was well designed and the scenery was beautiful.

If you're looking for a place to unwind, relax, take the kids, or bring friends and family, this is the perfect spot. I'd love to bring my family here next time. It's best to enter from the West Gate and exit from the South Gate, where you can enjoy the view of the mountain and sea escalator, see Kinmen, and overlook half of Xiamen. It's a wonderful experience.

It's alright; you can see the Petronas Twin Towers and the sea, but only for a short distance. Most of the view is the same as usual. If you like cable cars and prefer a longer ride, you can take one; the queue time is manageable.

The scenery is beautiful, featuring Danxia landforms rarely seen in northern China. However, it gets extremely sunny at midday, so it's best to avoid visiting around noon. Going earlier, before noon, will allow you to see most of the sights. Alternatively, go after 2 PM, as there's less shade in the area.
