Poyang Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Avoid the crowd and go to the island to see migratory birds in winter during the Spring Festival!

Traveling to Jiangxi in the off-season is simply super happy! Few people, beautiful scenery, and delicious food! And it takes only 4.5 hours to drive from Hangzhou, and the high-speed rail takes 3 hours to reach Poyang North, which is very suitable for people in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai as a cross-provincial travel destination for the New Year, and the Spring Festival here is also very full! 👉🏻Share a niche 3-day tour route, you can go to the island to watch migratory birds in winter, you can enjoy the original ecological life in the grapefruit manor, and you can see the history of porcelain... 🌈Day1: Hangzhou—Wunian Island—Fuli Resort ☑️Wunian Island The romantic grass sea in the Miyazaki Hayao anime that exploded in the summer is on this island, a free scenic spot, you need to take a boat to the opposite side, 50r a car round trip. The grass has turned yellow in winter, but I prefer it. ✅Reed swamps, marsh wetlands, shallows, grass seas... You can also bring equipment to pick up shells, locals will pick them up and sell them~ If you want to see migratory birds, it's actually very casual, because they are not fixed in one place, you can judge their position based on their calls, you can always find them. 🔍You can camp, but you can't light a fire. It is recommended to bring a bicycle to ride, it's really beautiful! (The sunset is stunning) ☑️Jiangxi Fuli Resort It's about 40 minutes away from Wunian Island. I booked a two-bedroom suite, not only a super large living room🛋, but also two bathrooms. If it is a parent-child or a family, I recommend this type of room. Because it has a grapefruit manor, we were given a huge grapefruit when we checked in. The hotel quality is great, Dyson hair dryer, Parma shampoo and conditioner, floor-to-ceiling windows are standard, love the details! Dinner is directly resolved in the hotel. After eating, there is a bonfire outdoor KTV to have fun. We also prepared fairy sticks for us. The hotel's activities are quite rich. It is recommended to stay half a day in the hotel to experience the next day. ✅Outdoor archery🏹✅Grapefruit picking✅Cycling experience✅Pottery painting✅Indoor gym, KYV, indoor private soup, constant temperature swimming pool... You can plan your time according to the projects you want to play. 🌈Day2: Fuli Resort—Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Museum Self-driving is about 1h, non-self-driving can take the high-speed rail, it will arrive in 20min. You can go to the Imperial Kiln Museum first, remember to make an appointment in advance, there are arch-shaped brick kiln buildings that can be photographed, and there are also relic parks and museums that can be savored. It takes about 3h to play all. You can go to Taoxichuan to stroll the market at night, if you like ceramics, you can buy, buy, buy, you can't stop at all! 🌈Day3: Bingding Wood Kiln—Thousand-Year Porcelain Palace—Hangzhou ☑️Bingding Wood Kiln is very suitable for babies who like architecture and photography. Be sure to choose a sunny day! The light is really amazing!! The ticket is 30r, no need to make an appointment in advance, just go. ☑️Thousand-Year Porcelain Palace, an 80-year-old grandmother built a dream palace with her life savings, with mixed reviews, but I personally like it very much, and it looks good in photos. (But choose a sunny day and go when there are few people)

Hike in the clouds

Wugong Mountain, one of the three renowned mountains in ancient times in South China, covers an area of over 120 square kilometers and contains the highest peak in Jiangxi province: White Crane Peak. It reaches 1,918.3 meters and attracts many visitors very year. There are many terraces in front of the mountain. In spring, farmers prepare the land. The way they work has not changed since the time of their ancestors. Even today, they plough the fields with a buffalo. This spiritual mountain has a history of past poets and literati coming here for inspiration and reflection. Some of the paths are paved with pebbles. It’s said that walking on the pebbles is good for your health. Numerous children and elderly people sometimes take off their shoes and walk on the pebbles. The most famous thing about this mountain is the ‘sea of clouds’ which can form depending on the weather. Unfortunately we were not lucky enough to see this as we had glorious sunny weather during my 2 days hiking here. Missing out on this was compensated by a glorious 5am sunrise, seeing this fiery orb slowly rise up to greet a new day was awe inspiring and worth the grueling hike Astonishingly due to the clear weather and lack of clouds we managed to see a ‘blood moon’ and beautiful stars in the sky. Living in a big city with light pollution this is something I never thought I would see in China. The hike itself is very challenging. With endless stairs and monotonous stomping up and up, you almost feel like you want to die. but stick it with, IT IS WORTH IT！The green panorama at the top is mind blowing, and seems to stretch on forever and ever. The lush surroundings and fresh air of the top make you feel alive and enthused with life. This is China at its finest. Along the route up there are lots of streams and waterfalls to see, and trees surround you, you almost feel at one with nature (apart from all the people). Bring lots of water and snacks with you as the prices on the mountain side are scandalously high and you’ll end up paying a lot. The peak is awash with colours as there are so many tents around, each with a vibrant colour of its own, its a visual feast for the eyes. The tent is reasonable and comes with a sleeping bag and a soft cover, it is big enough for 2 people just about and costs 100-200 RMB depending on where you put it. We chose a more isolated spot away from the mass crowds. I recomend choosing a good spot for the early sunrise, which is usually 5.30am or so and then pack up the tent before breakfast. There is a little hotel/restaurant nearby where you can get some noodles ready for the climb down. Should you wish there are cable cars which run up and down, however there will likely be long lines and you may be quicker walking down. #gohiking #china #travel

Wugong mountain has breathtaking views. My legs are still painful 2 days after hiking down but what can i say, the hike was worth it. fun, excitement and the WOWs...

Lazy Bird Watching Guide to Poyang Lake

If you want to go bird watching at Poyang Lake this winter, but are afraid of factors such as weather and environment, missing the golden spot for bird watching, or if you bring children and elderly people, unable to travel around, there is a place you might want to try, you will not be disappointed - Poyang Lake Wetland Science Park. The park is located on the shore of Poyang Lake, covering an area of 400 acres, divided into wetland museum, internal and external lake docks, wooden boat bay, bird watching corridor and other areas. In the bird watching corridor, there are swans, peacocks and other ornamental birds, as well as several species of wild water birds and migratory birds, especially the gray cranes that we usually cannot watch at close range. Many of them are wild birds that were rescued in the waters of Poyang Lake by the Science Park, or those that fell behind. Here they have received good care, and I believe that they will be able to soar in the blue sky in the near future. Next to the park is Poyang Lake, you can walk to the nearby bird watching spot, and enjoy the scene of wild migratory birds dancing in the air!
