The small river in the town twists and turns, and the bluestone bridges span the two banks, adding to the town's water town atmosphere.

Guifeng Scenic Area is quite nice, but it needs more promotion. There weren't too many tourists during the National Day holiday. The scenic area offered a variety of interactive activities, which were very engaging and provided a great emotional experience. The scenery is beautiful, and climbing up and down the mountain is not difficult. A day trip there was very relaxing, and the boat ride back offered stunning views of the lake and mountains.

It's worth a visit. Although it's a small, undeveloped scenic area, the natural scenery is still beautiful and perfect for taking photos. The lights are quite lovely at night. The area is large, and going up and down the mountain requires some physical exertion.

Ge Xian Village truly is a real-life fairyland! Surrounded by green mountains, with white walls and black tiles, it's shrouded in mist during the day, exuding an ethereal aura. As night falls, the Zhongmiao Pavilion hosts a series of light and water shows, with thousands of lights illuminating the scene and creating an unparalleled atmosphere. The streets are filled with delicious snacks, and Hanfu (traditional Han clothing) photo opportunities offer stunning pictures. There are many programs and a highly immersive experience. Escape the city and spend a day here as a carefree immortal – it's definitely worth a visit!

I like places with beautiful scenery and few people. It is very suitable for traveling with parents. It is also comfortable during holidays. I recommend it. It is a little far from the city, but it is worth it. My parents are very satisfied with the experience. Good review

Traveling to Jiangxi, I came to the Gexian Mountain Scenic Area in Shangrao. Gexian Mountain is located in Qianshan County, at the northern foot of Wuyi Mountain, and belongs to the branch of Wuyi Mountain. Gexian Mountain belongs to the Yanshan period granite landform, with the main peak at an altitude of 1,096 meters. It has a strong Taoist culture and is a famous Taoist mountain. There are Da Gexian Temple, Niangniang Temple, Ciji Temple, etc. in the scenic area. In the evening, there is a musical fountain stage play in the scenic area, which tells a story of Taoist culture.

The scenery was beautiful; I visited a few years ago and had a great impression, so I brought my husband here again from out of town today. But it was a huge disappointment! We waited over two hours to get a number and queue for the cable car up the mountain; then another two and a half hours for the cable car down. We rushed through the small loop on the mountain. If you're planning to come here, be sure to arrive early and descend early to avoid taking the cable car in the dark or driving out of the scenic area after dark – it's a safety concern! 😟

I woke up at 4:30 a.m. to watch the sunrise at 6:10 a.m., and it was a magical experience. The sky was painted in a thousand different colours!I then explored Xihai Grand Canyon and took the funicular. The views were magnificent! From there, you can continue hiking to other peaks or head to the cable car to descend to the city.I spent a little more time wandering around, but as the day was sunny, huge crowds started pouring in. I decided to leave before it got too busy.An unforgettable morning!

Huangling has a long-standing reputation, and I came here with high expectations. Even though I traveled during off-peak hours, it was still quite crowded. Fortunately, the parking lot was large and free, and the management was good! The scenic area is not large, and it's quite comfortable to walk around. There are quite a few steps, and the restrooms were very clean!
