Discovered a “lazy-friendly” hidden gem in Jiangxi — Tonggu Tianzhu Peak, where you can enjoy the Danxia mountains and waters without exhausting yourself! It’s just a 2-hour drive from Nanchang, making it perfect for a weekend day trip. Cruising on a boat through the emerald waters and red mountains of Jiulong Lake really gives off a bit of a Guilin vibe. After getting off the boat, it only takes half an hour to hike to the summit, which is super friendly for those who don’t like climbing! The summit offers a wide-open view, and the Feilong Waterfall cascades down golden rocky cliffs, creating a spectacular sight. Even more exciting are the activities here: the cheapest helicopter tours in the country, high-altitude glass rafting, a water park... you can enjoy a full day without repeating anything. Don’t forget to try the fish fillet at the scenic area’s restaurant — it’s a local specialty. If you’re looking for a place that’s easy and relaxing, yet offers beautiful scenery and fun activities, Tianzhu Peak is definitely worth it. The best part is it’s not crowded, so you won’t have to dodge people when taking photos! Where do you think is the most “lazy-friendly” scenic spot?

Family, who understands! I was tricked by the title "Little Guilin of Jiangxi" to go to Yichun Tianzhufeng, thinking it would be an easy place to take the kids, but I almost got exhausted! 😭 I have to share some honest truths with you to help you avoid the pitfalls, but honestly... some parts are really great! First, the pitfalls: Route trap: The recommended route looks great, but you simply can't finish it with kids! Morning and afternoon check-ins all in one day? Unless your kids are super tough and so are you. We followed the recommendation, but by the time we got to Happy Island, the kids' energy was almost gone, so we gave up on the second half. Attraction queues: Went on a weekend, the boat ride at Jiulong Lake had a queue over half an hour, and the glass bridge was crowded too. The slide and high-altitude rafting have strict height limits; under 1.2 meters is basically no chance, so it was a wasted wait and the kids got upset. Sun protection and mosquito repellent: The warnings in posts are right but underestimated! The Danxia landform offers little shade, making you question your life under the sun; mosquitoes by the lakeside boardwalk are like "hungry wolves," so you must spray mosquito repellent heavily! Now for the surprising highlights: But! After all the complaints, I have to say, this place really has its "worth"! ✔️ The Jiulong Lake boat ride is truly beautiful! Sitting on the boat watching the clear water and Danxia landforms really has the charm of Little Guilin. The kids were glued to the view, and the photos came out great. ✔️ Hiking Tianzhufeng, although tiring (it took nearly 50 minutes to climb slowly with kids), the view from the top is unbeatable! At that moment, the sweat felt worth it, setting an example for the kids that "persistence brings beautiful scenery." ✔️ The photo spots along the lakeside boardwalk are like a big treasure hunt game for kids, checking off each one keeps them happily engaged. ✔️ Booking tickets in advance really saves a lot, remember to book at least one day ahead! Ultimate advice for taking kids: Don’t be greedy! Skip the loop route and focus on "scenic area entrance → boat ride → Elephant Trunk Hill → lakeside boardwalk photo spots → a light mountain climb (within your limits)." This way, you won’t get too tired and still see the highlights. It’s suitable for a weekend family relaxation, but be sure to manage expectations. It’s a physically demanding mountain and water secret spot, not a pure leisure park. Plan well and avoid peak traffic times, and it can still be a great parent-child hiking experience! 🎒

1️⃣ Lushan Sandiequan Waterfall⛰️ The once majestic Sandiequan Waterfall softens its roar in subzero temperatures, like a dreamlike symphony carefully woven by nature, quietly playing through the valley. Layers upon layers of icicles and frost hang from cliffs and rock faces, forming a spectacular winter scene, like a fairy tale world carved from ice and jade. The best moment is at noon, when the slightly melting ice drips drop by drop, resembling the steady and slow heartbeat of this famous mountain in winter. 2️⃣ Mingyue Mountain⛰️ Every winter, the spring water along Qingyun plank road freezes into a long ice waterfall stretching dozens of meters. The flowing water solidifies into crystal-clear ice, silently hanging on the cliff, showcasing the dynamic stillness of frozen beauty under the blue sky. Icicles of varying lengths dangle from the rock face, ringing with ethereal chimes when the wind blows. Walk carefully along the frozen plank road, and you’ll see streams still flowing beneath the ice— a sign of the earth’s warmth. 🎫 Annual Pass Benefits: Mingyue Mountain ticket: 95 RMB/person.

Water freezes into icicles on the cliff, shimmering like crystal in the sunlight, intertwined with snow-covered forests, crafting a serene and magnificent icy fairy tale world. 4️⃣ Qixingling❄ After a cold wave, the ice waterfall scene quietly appears in front of the ticket hall at Tonggu Qixingling Scenic Area. The once flowing mountain spring freezes in the cold, turning into a crystal-clear icy world. Icicles hang like crystal curtains, cascading down the rock face, varying in length and layered, glowing with a clear blue-white light under the sky. Branches are wrapped in transparent ice, complementing the diverse shapes of the ice waterfalls. Unfrozen streams flow gently among the icy rocks, blending movement and stillness, as if weaving the poetry of winter into every inch of the scenery. 🎫 Annual Pass Benefits: Qixingling Ski Package: Reference price 368 RMB.

In Tonggu County, located on the western border of Jiangxi Province, there stands a solitary peak known as Tianzhu Peak, hailed as the "Number One Pillar of Jiangnan." This 401-meter-high mountain, with its unique Danxia landform, beautiful lake and mountain scenery, and rich historical and cultural heritage, attracts countless visitors eager to explore. I was fortunate to set foot on this magical land and embark on a profound dialogue with nature and history. First Impressions of Tianzhu Peak: Awe and Amazement Combined At dawn, when the first rays of sunlight bathe Tianzhu Peak, the entire mountain seems to be gilded with a golden glow, appearing especially solemn and mysterious. We boarded a boat and slowly sailed from Jiulong Lake toward Tianzhu Peak. Jiulong Lake is broad and elongated, embraced by green mountains on both sides, with crystal-clear waters. As the boat moved forward, the lake and mountain scenery gradually unfolded like a beautiful painting slowly revealing itself before our eyes. After disembarking, we first visited Elephant Trunk Hill. Located to the left of Tianzhu Peak, Elephant Trunk Hill is the second tallest stone peak after Tianzhu Peak. Viewed head-on, it resembles a narrow sky slit; from the side, it looks like an elephant’s trunk, lifelike and astonishing. Although it appears somewhat rugged and abstract compared to the Elephant Trunk Hill in Guilin, this primitive beauty showcases the marvels of nature’s craftsmanship. Climbing Tianzhu Peak: Challenge and Beauty Together We ascended the winding mountain path, gradually approaching Tianzhu Peak. The path was shaded by lush trees and filled with the fragrance of flowers, refreshing the mind and spirit. Although the trail was steep in places, each step was full of challenge and anticipation. Along the way, we passed Ling Shi An and Yixian Tian, each spot captivating us deeply. Ling Shi An is a natural rock cave shelter formed by huge boulders on the mountainside. Inside, it is neatly arranged without feeling cramped. Spring water flows down the cliff into a small pool for drinking, and ancient cliff inscriptions can be found on the boulders. Since the Southern Song Dynasty, incense has burned continuously here. People have lived peacefully under the blessing of the "spiritual stone," creating a tranquil and harmonious atmosphere. Yixian Tian is a narrow passage formed by two giant rocks standing opposite each other, with the narrowest point only 0.8 meters wide, revealing just a sliver of sky above. Passing through Yixian Tian feels like entering a new world, with the scenery opening up and refreshing the soul. Finally, we reached the summit of Tianzhu Peak. Standing at the top, we gazed far and wide: the Mufu Mountain Range rolled like waves, and Tonggu County spread out like a chessboard. The mountain breeze carried the sound of pine waves into our ears, making us feel as if we were in a fairyland. At this moment, I truly experienced the grandeur and majesty of "looking down on all other mountains." Exploring Tianzhu Peak: A Blend of History and Culture Tianzhu Peak is not only naturally beautiful but also rich in historical and cultural significance. Legend has it that Zhang Guolao, one of the Eight Immortals, once passed through here. While tying his donkey and emptying his purse at "Shoe Drying Point," he accidentally lost his magical conch in the grass. Strangely, the conch fell to the mortal world and grew rapidly with the wind, reportedly growing a thousand units a day and breaking through the sky in ten days. The Jade Emperor was alarmed and sent the Thunder God to subdue it to ensure the safety of Heaven. On that day, the wind rose, clouds gathered, the sky darkened, heavy rain poured, and thunder struck, splitting a large hole in the spiritual stone’s belly, stopping its growth and forming Tianzhu Peak. Besides this beautiful legend, at the foot of Tianzhu Peak stands the thousand-year-old Tianzhu Temple. Founded during the Tang Dynasty’s Zhenguan era, it was once one of the "Three Great Zen Forests of Jiangnan," alongside Donglin Temple in Lushan and Yuelu Temple in Changsha. The temple houses statues of Maitreya Buddha and Shakyamuni, as well as precious artifacts like the "Record of the Renovation of Tianzhu Temple" written by Li Rongbi, a Qing Dynasty Tonggu scholar. These relics not only witness the temple’s historical changes but also reflect the deep bond between the local people and the temple. Savoring Tonggu Cuisine: A Feast for the Palate After a full day of touring, our stomachs began to rumble. We headed to a farmhouse restaurant within the scenic area to taste local delicacies. Tonggu’s cuisine mainly features mountain treasures and wild flavors, with unique tastes that linger in the memory. We ordered braised pork, roasted rooster, stir-fried rice noodles, and amaranth soup among other specialties. These dishes were not only delicious but also nutritious, satisfying our appetites fully. Farewell to Tianzhu Peak: Reluctance and Fondness Time flew by, and soon our journey to Tianzhu Peak was coming to an end. Standing on the boat, I looked back once more at this beautiful land, my heart filled with reluctance and affection. Tianzhu Peak, you are like a gentle lady, conquering every visitor’s heart with your beauty and kindness. Here, I felt the magic and charm of nature, witnessed the vicissitudes of history, and savored the richness and depth of local cuisine. I know this farewell is only for the sake of a future reunion. I believe that one day, I will return to this land to experience your beauty and warmth once again. Tianzhu Peak, you are forever the poetry and distant place in my heart, and I will cherish your beauty forever. 1.

The Guanyin Hall inside is solemn and heavily frequented by worshippers, making it an excellent place for quiet prayer and blessing. - Jiulong Waterfall and Love Valley: Jiulong Waterfall is 78 meters high, with silver chains of water cascading down, often forming rainbows on sunny days.

Besides the snow scenery of Lushan, what else can you do in Jiangxi in winter? We took a self-drive trip to explore Tianzhu Peak in northwest Jiangxi and unexpectedly found it to be a paradise for winter family self-driving! The roads are good, there are few tourists, and the combination of mountains and waters is superb. This self-drive guide will take you through the full experience of boating, hiking, hot springs, and rural fun. 🗺️ Self-Drive Routes and Road Conditions (Departing from Changsha/Nanchang/Wuhan) Core destination: Set navigation to "Jiangxi Tianzhu Peak National Forest Park." From Nanchang: About 2 hours by car, mainly via Changtong Expressway (S40), with excellent road conditions. From Changsha: About 2.5 hours by car, take Changliu Expressway then transfer to Changtong Expressway. From Wuhan: About 4 hours by car, take Wushen Expressway (G0422) then transfer to Changtong Expressway. Friendly reminder: The last section after exiting the highway is on provincial and tourist roads with more curves, but the scenery is beautiful, so please drive carefully. There may be fog in the mountain areas in the early morning and evening during winter, so it is recommended to depart in the morning. 🎣 Hidden Activities: More Than Just the Standard Scenic Area Besides taking a boat ride and climbing the main scenic area of Tianzhu Peak, if you have enough time, you can try: Lake Circuit Self-Drive: There is a road outside the scenic area gate that partially circles the lake, with some quiet viewing platforms along the way where you can see different sides of Tianzhu Peak, perfect for photography and daydreaming. Rural Flavor Hunt: Drive to nearby Yongning Town or Paibu Town to find authentic farmhouse dishes and experience more local Hakka culture. Tangli Hot Springs: This is not a hidden item but a must! The advantage of self-driving is flexible scheduling. We strongly recommend staying at the Tonggu Tangli Cultural Tourism Resort. Spend the day exploring mountains and waters, then soak in the warm natural hot springs at night while gazing at the starry sky—this is the ultimate winter self-drive enjoyment. ⏱️ Recommended Two-Day One-Night Self-Drive Itinerary Day 1: Depart from home in the morning, arrive at Tonggu County or Tangli Resort around noon, and have lunch. In the afternoon, visit Tianzhu Peak National Forest Park (follow the route from the previous guide). Check in to a hotel in Tangli Hot Springs Resort in the evening, enjoy dinner, and soak in the hot springs to your heart’s content. Day 2: Sleep in naturally, take a walk within the resort, or try other activities offered there (such as hiking or Hanfu experience). After lunch, return home at a relaxed pace. If you still want more, you can stop by Tonggu County on the way back to shop for local specialties. 🚗 Self-Drive Tips Check tire pressure, antifreeze, and windshield washer fluid. Prepare some children’s music and story audio for the trip. The scenic area parking lot has ample spaces and reasonable fees. When using mobile navigation, it’s best to download offline maps in advance as some mountain road sections may have unstable signals. ♨️ In-Depth Hot Spring Resort Hotel Recommendations To emphasize again, if you come to Tianzhu Peak in winter, you must stay at a hot spring hotel! Tangli Hotel (inside the resort): First choice, central location, many hot spring pools, relatively new facilities. Tonggu Tangli Yanling Homestay: A high-end homestay within the resort, with more distinctive design and better privacy. Tonggu Tangli Holiday Hotel: A cost-effective option with authentic hot spring experience. The greatest freedom of self-driving is that you can decide the pace of your trip.

Tonggu County boasts extremely high forest coverage and borders Tongcheng County in Hubei Province and Pingjiang County in Hunan Province, making it a tri-provincial border area. For those who enjoy natural hot springs, you can navigate directly to "Tangli Hot Spring Resort Hotel" or "Tonggu Tongfu Inn" in Tonggu County. The hot spring is located in a niche park with beautiful surroundings and surrounded by mountains, similar to a "Xanadu." The journey into the mountains is very comfortable along a scenic road, and the roads are exceptionally well-maintained, accessible by both cars and SUVs. Tickets: 60/person, but currently, hot spring + ticket = 115/two people. Inside, there's a full-scale replica of Beijing's "Tongfu Inn" from the TV series "My Own Swordsman." Photography enthusiasts can bring a few sets of ancient costumes for photoshoots, offering excellent value as there are very few visitors. The scenic spot is relatively niche, unknown to many due to its distance from major urban areas. The supporting facilities are not yet fully developed, but there are places to eat inside, and they are affordable. Wentang Town has taken most of the fame for hot springs in Yichun, but it's crowded, resulting in a slightly less enjoyable experience. This place is a 2-hour drive from Yichun's urban area, two and a half hours from Changsha, and one and a half hours from Tongcheng. High-quality water, few people, and a beautiful environment are the biggest advantages of this hot spring. If you stay at the hotel inside the hot spring resort, you can drive directly to the hotel instead of parking in the open-air parking lot outside. Hotel guests can enjoy free hot springs, and stargazing at night is fantastic.
