    This is a well-deserved 4A scenic area. It's not very famous, but the scenery inside is excellent. You can take a cable car up the mountain to save energy. Inside, you can explore a loop route; follow the signs to avoid getting lost. The rocks are strangely shaped, showcasing the wonders of nature. Hiking on the mountain is quite time-consuming and energy-intensive. It's recommended to take the 211 route (the one on the left) after exiting the cable car; the 985 route on the right is more strenuous and challenging…

    Worth to visit with your own eyes! The nature and the scenery during the night is very beautiful. I think 1 day is enough. You can travel by Didi or the direct bus from the Shangrao train station. I would recommended to stay until evening to see the lights. There are all day performance and program so visitors can enjoy the whole day. Great place to visit with family, kids, friends, and couple~ Or even a single traveller can enjoy as well :)

    I've been to Wuyishan twice and highly recommend it. It truly lives up to its reputation as a World Heritage Site, a National Park of China, and one of China's Top Ten Famous Mountains. Although the scenic area is large, the shuttle buses are quite convenient, making the visit less tiring. We drove there and stayed in the city center, where the hotels were great value for money.

    Very good 👍 The scenery background is not moving, but the audience seats are rotating. It is a wonderful design that maintains the high level of the Impression series. It was a thunderstorm day and there was lightning in the background. It was unforgettable.

    Jianglang Mountain, formerly known as Jinchun Mountain and Xulang Mountain, is located in the southwest of Jiangshan City, Quzhou City, Zhejiang Province. It is renowned for its "majestic grandeur and unparalleled beauty in Southeast China." Jianglang Mountain is a captivating natural and cultural mountain. As a World Natural Heritage site, it is an outstanding representative of Danxia landforms. Its iconic "Three Stones," rising 312 meters high, stand majestically in a "川" (river) shape, earning it the title of "China's First Danxia Peak." The "One Line Sky" in the mountain, 312 meters high and 298 meters long, narrows to only 3.5 meters at its narrowest point, and has been identified by 56 geological experts from East China as the "Longest One Line Sky in China." Langfeng Tianyou is a paradise for hikers, with its near-vertical iron ladders and over 3,500 stone steps. While challenging, it offers climbers a sense of triumph, allowing them to experience the exhilaration of "reaching the summit and becoming the peak." Jianglang Mountain not only boasts stunning natural scenery but also possesses a profound cultural heritage. This is the place where Xu Xiake visited three times, and many literati such as Bai Juyi and Lu You also left poems here. In addition, the scenic area where Jianglang Mountain is located is connected to the surrounding Qingyang Village and Ershibadu Ancient Town, where nature and culture complement each other.

    I visited 7 out of 11 attractions in three days, which was worthwhile. The ancient buildings in Jiangwan, the chrysanthemums in Xiaoqi, the streams and bridges in Likeng, the morning mist and red maples in Shicheng, and the ancient camphor trees in Yantian were particularly impressive. I'll visit the remaining ones in spring to see the rapeseed flowers.

    The essence of Wunvzhou Island lies entirely at night. The artificial Hui-style streetscape offers little to do during the day; its true highlight is at night. As dusk falls, the Baoyu Pagoda glows with shimmering light, the Hui-style architecture is reflected in the lake, and the swaying fish lanterns create a poetic scene. The intangible cultural heritage of iron-making is a major attraction, with molten iron at 1600℃ splashing like a golden river falling into the night—a truly breathtaking sight. However, the park's regular attractions are somewhat ordinary, and the NPC interactions are rather standard, offering few surprises. If you're only coming for the night view and the iron-making, visiting in the evening is more than enough to live up to your expectations.
