Wuyi Mountain is indeed worth recommending. The Jade Maiden Peak stands like a young girl, Jiuqu River, Dahongpao, etc. are all must-see places. The most shocking one is Impression Dahongpao, with its rotating stage and colorful lights... I want to watch Impression Dahongpao again
Entering the park with your ID card is very convenient, and after that, you only need to scan your face to board the bus at each attraction. My only regret was that I didn't get to ride the bamboo raft. You should book in advance during the summer. I heard it's even more crowded during Golden Week, but I was very satisfied with the crowds for the summer. Although the temperature was acceptable, it was still very hot. I decided to just explore the national park on my own, climbing and hiking whenever I wanted. It was very flexible and comfortable. The air was fresh, and the clear water and mountains were refreshing. It's worth a visit!

During holidays, it's a good idea to book a VIP ticket. There's a dedicated VIP channel for ticket checking and entry, which is much faster than the regular channel. They also give you a bottle of water. The seats inside are also very good, right in the middle of the venue.
A must-see show when visiting Wuyi Mountain. The actors, light and shadow, stage, and mountain scenery blend into one. This is my second time watching it, and it's still very impressive. The stage rotates according to the plot. The weather was very good on the day we watched it, and there was no tent, so it might be difficult to watch the show on a rainy day.

Very fun rafting project,
The scenery on both sides is beautiful.
There are still many people on bamboo rafts,
Rafts of bamboo rafts pass by in front of you,
Feeling the movement of people under the beautiful scenery,
Adding vitality to the originally quiet scenery.
The mountains are undulating and looming,
The lingering clouds and mist make the mountains more hazy,
Wandering on the river,
Feeling very refreshing,
It is worth a visit.
The first drift in East China: a thrilling water adventure
When the hustle and bustle of the city gradually blurred and the desire for freedom in my heart became stronger, I resolutely embarked on the journey to the first drift in East China, eager to find excitement and tranquility between the mountains and rivers.
When I first arrived at the starting point of the first drift in East China, I was shocked by the scenery in front of me. Surrounded by mountains and lush greenery, it seems to be a green barrier carefully woven by nature. The clear river water sparkles under the sunshine, like a string of shining diamonds. The stones of various shapes on the shore seem to tell the story of the river for thousands of years.
Putting on a life jacket and sitting on the rubber boat, my heart was nervous and excited. With a gentle push from the staff, the rubber boat slowly drifted down the water. At first, the water flow was relatively gentle, and the rubber boat swayed slowly, allowing me to leisurely enjoy the beautiful scenery on both sides of the river. The breeze in the mountains blows on your face, carrying the fragrance of soil and plants, making people feel refreshed. Occasionally, you can see a few birds flying overhead, leaving behind crisp chirping sounds echoing in the valley.
However, this tranquility did not last long. Soon, a turbulent bend appeared in front of us, and the water flow became rapid. The rubber boat accelerated instantly and rushed into the waves like an arrow from a string. I held the handles on both sides of the rubber boat tightly, and my heart was raised to my throat. The waves kept hitting my body, and the cool river water instantly soaked my clothes, bringing a hint of coolness. Every bump and rotation made me couldn't help but exclaim, which was awe of the power of nature and excitement of self-challenge.
In the constant confrontation with the rapids, the rubber boat was sometimes thrown high and sometimes fell quickly, and my body swayed up and down with its ups and downs. When passing a particularly thrilling drop, I felt as if I had left the rubber boat, and the whole person "flew" briefly in the air, and then fell heavily into the water, splashing huge water. At that moment, all the fear and tension were thrown out of the sky, leaving only endless excitement and pleasure.
After drifting through the rapids, the water gradually returned to calm. At this time, I had the opportunity to take a breath and savor the thrilling moment just now. Looking at the rapids left behind, a strong sense of accomplishment surged in my heart. The scenery on both sides of the river is still beautiful, and bursts of birdsong can be heard from the dense woods from time to time, as if cheering for our bravery.
Nearing the end, I was a little reluctant, and this time of close contact with the mountains and rivers was about to end. When the rubber boat slowly approached the shore, I stepped onto the land with fatigue and joy. The first drift in East China not only allowed me to experience the excitement and fun of drifting on the water, but also allowed me to find inner peace and strength in the dialogue with nature.
If you also want a trip full of challenges and surprises, then the first drift in East China is definitely worth your experience, and it will leave you with a lifetime of unforgettable beautiful memories.

It was quite cool to go to the scenic spot in the afternoon. The trail was not dangerous and the water was very clear. You could touch fish and tadpoles. The scenic shuttle bus had 9 seats. Overall, it was good.
All three mountains and five mountains have passed, Huangshan (the Qingming Festival has just been a full 24 years to climb the old place of Huangshan and revisit it), Lushan, Taishan, Lushan have gone twice, and Guilin, which is the best in the world, has also gone twice (the May Day holiday has just been a full 20 years to Guilin's old place to revisit Once again), but my favorite Chinese mountain is still Fujian Wuyi Mountain in southeast Xiujia, I have been there three times before, but the most recent is 2015 ten years ago. So the Dragon Boat Festival in 2025 went to one of China's only four world natural and cultural heritage sites for the fourth time. Qinglong Waterfall is located in Wuyishan National Forest Park. It is an attraction that has not been visited three times before. The traffic is slightly inconvenient and needs to be chartered (I spent 150 yuan for half a day). The momentum of the waterfall is still very magnificent, and there is a free Moon Bay attraction on the way. A worthwhile trip.
