When we went, there were very few people, and the weather was great. It was raining down below, but when we reached the top of the mountain, the sky cleared up, and we saw a fairyland. So, when going to Fanjingshan, don't give up because of bad weather. Maybe a miracle will happen at the last moment. Stay in one place for a while and don't leave immediately, because your time there can change in an instant.
The long-awaited holy land finally arrived today! Absolutely amazing! We even bumped into some Hong Kong aunties and uncles along the way – that was incredible too! You don't know what "perilous" means until you've been here. The weather was great, sunny and bright, and I was in a great mood! Hahahaha, come on, friends!

Don't buy the round-trip escalator ticket. Definitely avoid the escalator down from the waterfall to the Water Curtain Cave; you'll have to walk back up to the halfway point to reach the cave, which is tiring and a waste. It's much better to walk down to the cave. You can buy the escalator ticket for the return trip. The scenery is quite nice, and on a sunny day, there's no need for raincoats or shoe covers—they'll dry quickly.
It was truly spectacular! Even visiting just two attractions was a bit tiring.
I brought my mom this time, so we didn't walk across the Tianxing Bridge.
We arrived at the scenic area at 11 am and left before 4 pm. I think people with good stamina can walk across the Tianxing Bridge. The Great Waterfall is definitely a must-see. The panoramic view is also worth taking photos. We even saw a rainbow after exiting the Water Curtain Cave.

Our tour guide, Xiao Tian, was very helpful and provided excellent explanations. The bus driver drove smoothly and we arrived at our destination on time. The Huangguoshu Waterfall, Water Curtain Cave, Tianxing Bridge, Beauty Banyan Tree, and Silver Chain Waterfall were all incredibly beautiful.
If you're driving, you can enter from the West Gate, take the tour bus to the East Gate, and finally take another bus back to the West Gate. Parking: Parking is available at the West Gate; there are plenty of parking spaces.
For people from the plains, the mountains and waterfalls are absolutely breathtaking. My favorite part was the water forest; walking along the stone paths through the forest with the rushing stream beside you was very enjoyable.

All the ancient cities, towns, villages, and fortresses are pretty much the same. A river runs through the village, and it's very lively at night. I think the management of the scenic area is quite mature compared to others.
It's worth seeing. I recommend doing your research beforehand to avoid backtracking. Overall, it's a very good experience. Just be aware that the sightseeing bus stops running after 10:30 am.

Zhijin Cave in Guizhou is a natural karst cave formed over thousands of years. Inside the cave, there are many stalactites and underground rivers on the walls and ceiling, with various shapes and forms that are very spectacular. The whole scene is well worth visiting in person!
The cave is beautiful, and since it's the off-season, it's deserted, allowing for a leisurely visit. A visit takes about 3 hours, with many steps! Whether it's tiring depends on your physical condition; I personally didn't find it too strenuous. It's not cold inside the cave; a base layer and a sweatshirt are usually enough (in November). The only problem is transportation within the scenic area. There are very few direct buses from the high-speed rail station to the scenic area—only one per hour, and they're very slow. We had to take a taxi, which cost 120 yuan and took 40 minutes. By the time we finished our visit, it was almost dark, and there were no taxis available, especially in the middle of nowhere. I hope the scenic area can change the time of the last bus; otherwise, we would miss our high-speed train back to Guiyang. Finally, a kind man took us to the high-speed rail station. What a thrilling trip!

I have visited so many ancient towns all over the country, and Qingyan Ancient Town is one of the most distinctive ones. It has scenery surrounded by mountains and rivers, and its towering ancient city walls are very dangerous. It has the charm of a frontier town.
It feels like all ancient towns are the same now, with no distinctive features. The shopping malls are rarely visited, but what makes it different from other ancient towns is that you can climb the city walls, which feels like the Great Wall. Food is very cheap, with sugarcane juice at the entrance only 7 yuan a cup, and the set meal at "South City Old Things" is 38 yuan, which is more than one person can finish!

The price is reasonable at 20 yuan, and it's good that it helps preserve intangible cultural heritage. However, the activities weren't exciting enough, and it was inconvenient for tourists with strollers or suitcases. Fortunately, there's free luggage storage at the entrance.
After a morning stroll along Huaxi Golden Avenue, head to Huaxi Yelang Valley. This stone kingdom, created by artist Song Peilun over 20 years, blends the mysterious Yelang culture with natural wonders. The scenic area features over 200 stone totem poles incorporating elements of ancient Yelang totems and Nuo opera masks, their unique shapes creating a mysterious Yelang cultural atmosphere. The perfect combination of karst landforms and man-made art results in a pristine yet fantastical landscape, perfect for taking photos. Tickets are inexpensive at 20 yuan per person, and the visit takes approximately 1-2 hours. The road to the scenic area is blocked by vendors, making it easy to get lost; a security guard informed us that parking costs 10 yuan per vehicle. However, parking at the entrance is only 2 yuan per hour.

Thumbs up for Wanfenglin Scenic Area in Xingyi, Guizhou! 👍 The service at the scenic spot was excellent, with an abundance of clean restrooms, and the local drivers were very nice. 🥰 The scenic area is a 20-minute drive from the city center. The entire trip takes 2.5-3 hours. You board an electric cart from the visitor center, and the driver provides commentary along the way and stops for photos. There's plenty of time, the driver is friendly and doesn't rush you, and they even help you take good photos. There are restrooms at every stop, and water is available for free at the service areas. Nearby, Huangxiu is the most popular fried rice spot; 15 yuan is enough for two people and it's not too spicy, perfect for people from Guangdong who can handle the heat.
We were very happy that we took a pet-friendly sightseeing bus. The dogs were given snacks, water, and exquisite water bowls. The pet bus was very warm, clean, and tidy. The beautiful driver not only drove us, but also explained the history of Qianhu Miao Village to us.

When you come to Guizhou, you must experience China's strength up close. Take a 30-minute shuttle bus to the core area of FAST (Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope), where the super telescope is right before your eyes. It's the world's first, a testament to our powerful motherland! The FAST scenic area also has many science education and experience halls, including the Nan Rendong Memorial Hall, where you can pay tribute to the father of China's FAST telescope!
It's worth visiting; these are the nation's most important instruments, the best in the world. The Chinese people have the capability and ambition. With the passage of time, all the problems that imperialism has created for us will be solved. I am proud of our great motherland! A salute to the scientists who have contributed to the country; the people of our motherland will never forget you!

The scenery in this Dong village is quite nice, and it's well-managed with not too many people. Transportation is convenient; the village itself isn't large, and you can easily walk around. You could also visit Tang'an Dong Village and Xiage Dong Village, where the commercial atmosphere is less intense and there are fewer tourists.
It was quite interesting to stumble upon their Lusheng Festival. However, it was a little disappointing that after walking through the front garden, we turned back at the shopping street! Later we learned that the actual scenic area is inside the shopping street.
