I thought Huangshan was beautiful until I came here

I don't know if it's too low-key or not well-promoted, but how can such a beautiful place be so little known! Located between Sanqing Mountain, Longhu Mountain, and Wuyi Mountain, the scenery here is no less impressive than these three mountains! Guifeng was formed during the Danxia landform of the Cretaceous period 135 million years ago, and you can see many strange and interesting peaks (like rabbits, Zhu Bajie, Elizabeth, etc.). Even Xu Xiake wrote, 'The wonders of Guifeng's peaks and ridges are unmatched by Yandang' after visiting. If you plan to travel after graduation or have a team-building hike during the summer, make sure to bookmark this place! Location: Yiyang Guifeng Scenic Area Transportation: 15 minutes by taxi from Yiyang Station My travel route: (covers all the essential parts) Thousand-year-old camphor tree → One Line Sky → General Building → Three Passes Hero Slope (Return to Three Passes) → Camel Peak Viewing Platform → Golden Bell Peak → West Sea Coast Viewing Platform → Eighteen Arhats → Glass Plank Road → Camel Peak → Clear Water Pond Pier → Guifeng Lake → Visitor Center Must-visit spots: One Line Sky: Xu Xiake once walked here, a narrow path between two peaks where you can only see a strip of blue sky when you look up, with a gentle mountain breeze blowing through the valley. Three Passes: On the way to the Camel Peak Viewing Platform, the entire route is a suspended plank road with spectacular scenery along the way, and you can also see stone peaks that look like rabbits. Hero Slope: The stone steps are winding and twisting, and in the afternoon you can see the golden sunlight on the mountains. Photography enthusiasts should not miss this spot. Golden Bell Peak: The peak resembles a hanging golden bell, and a local saying goes, 'When clouds cover Golden Bell Peak, it will either rain or be windy.' It can predict the weather. From the top, you can overlook the entire Guifeng, and there is a small wooden horse that is very interesting. Be careful at the top, and do not climb on rainy days. Glass Plank Road: You can see the overlapping peaks from afar, with a sheer cliff on one side and a hundred-meter drop on the other, thrilling and exciting! Tips: It takes about 4-5 hours to complete the entire route. Travel light, and there are service points on the mountain where you can buy water and food. The overall difficulty of the climb is not high. On sunny days, be prepared for sun protection. Do not climb on rainy days. Cloudy days are very comfortable. Remember to take a map of the area, as there are multiple routes to choose from.
