Things to do in Benxi

The scenic area was fantastic! I explored two different routes. The shuttle bus service was excellent and very convenient; it's free after you buy your ticket. The tour guides were also very responsible, reminding me of weather changes and recommended tour times. Thumbs up! I would definitely recommend the shuttle bus service to other friends.

Benxi Water Cave is the most beautiful karst cave I've ever seen. The stalactites and stalagmites inside are diverse in style—some majestic, some precipitous, some graceful. Looking at them is truly captivating. However, you can only look; there's not much interaction involved—the entire experience is by boat. The Petrified Wood Geological Park mainly consists of petrified wood fossils, which adds a nice touch to the overall experience of the scenic area.

First of all, the scenery is undeniably beautiful. However, we came specifically to see the autumn leaves, and surprisingly, there were very few at the time. Frankly, the "King of Maple Leaves" wasn't anything special; unless it's very close and convenient to get there, I wouldn't recommend making a special trip.

The scenic area was fantastic! Because of the season, it wasn't too crowded, making for a very enjoyable visit. The tourist shuttle bus was especially convenient, and the tour guide was very responsible and friendly. Thumbs up to the scenic area, the tourist shuttle bus, and the tour guide!

You can spend a whole day there. It is recommended to bring some food, as the food there is not very tasty. You can bring less water because there are a lot of people buying water. Anyway, it is very fun. I will come again next time. There are many places to take photos and check in, but there are a lot of people

The scenery at the scenic area: The air was crisp after the rain, a sea of green, and the maple leaves on the mountain were quietly turning red. Enjoyments: There were many activities, but there were almost no signage. We took a lot of detours. The sightseeing bus charges a one-way fee, and you had to buy a new ticket after getting off. The line for the airship was long and not very interesting. The boat only boarded at pier 1 and disembarked at pier 2. 🚢 From the upper deck, you could stand by the fence to enjoy the scenery; sitting down, your view was blocked and you couldn't see anything. You had to row the bamboo raft yourself, which was a pleasant experience. The smell of the airplane was strange. The high-altitude glass rafting was fun, a bit thrilling, with many twists and turns, and a moderate incline. The flying magic carpet ascended slowly, and the rainbow slide descended quickly, which was very exciting. I didn't see the 9D because I didn't plan my route well. Hike Experience: The slopes were not very steep until the Savage Valley, so it was easy. Then the winding mountain road was very steep. The climb to the top was very refreshing.

Surrounded by mountains and water, this "Little Jiangnan of the North" boasts numerous photo-worthy spots, including a misty forest wonderland and a light-and-shadow old street. It combines local delicacies like mutton soup and Manchu farm cuisine with activities such as forest water slides, pet interactions, and bonfire and fireworks shows. Visitors can also experience Hanfu dress-up, interact with NPCs to win prizes, and enjoy a one-stop experience for family trips, friends' getaways, and more.

The scenery is very beautiful, and the mountains in the scenic area are not difficult to climb, but the scenery at the top of the mountain is particularly good. However, the transportation is not very convenient. It took a long time to get there by car. I hope that the high-speed rail can be built to the vicinity in the future to make it easier for everyone to travel.

During the May Day holiday, my partner and I took a road trip, spending four hours exploring. Overall, it was a great experience. The trees weren't fully green yet, and the icefalls on the mountain hadn't melted, giving us a glimpse of the spectacular waterfalls in summer. The attractions weren't crowded, the management was excellent, and the service center was busy but organized. The sightseeing bus covered about 2.5 kilometers, followed by a 2-kilometer hike uphill. The hike wasn't tiring, and the leisurely pace was quite pleasant. The downhill walk along the boardwalk, following the babbling brook, was also easy. Overall, it's worth a visit—a less-traveled spot with fewer crowds and beautiful scenery.

Tiesha Mountain is a sacred religious site. The Babao Yunguang Cave is the most famous natural cave in the mountain and the birthplace of the Longmen School of Taoism in Northeast China. Tiesha Mountain is thus known as the ancestral home of Taoism in Northeast China, as it is associated with the founder of Taoism in Northeast China.
