The Jiulong Waterfalls are incredibly beautiful and well worth a visit. With numerous waterfalls cascading downhill, each level offers a unique scene, and the splashing water and cool breeze make this a perfect summer escape. Entering from the west gate, it's a straight downhill climb, and the waterfalls are visible in no time. It's a delightful experience, and the east gate is also a convenient exit. If you drive to the west gate, private taxis will take you there. The fare is under NT$20 per person, and NT$10 for larger groups.
Whether you want to go to a crowded place or a sparsely populated place, a quiet place or a lively place, this place is very fun. The environment is different and it is not very tiring to walk around. The waterfalls are very spectacular and magnificent. I was reluctant to leave after playing for a long time.

The scenic area is primarily divided into a canyon tour area, an aerial bus tour area, a cable car, and a glass bridge sightseeing area. The canyon tour area is limited to a 3.6-kilometer one-way walk and lacks numerous waterfall features. The aerial bus experience is average, while the glass bridge experience is quite good, offering aerial views of the Nizhu River Grand Canyon and Beipanjiang River Gorge. Other attractions include via ferrata and bungee jumping. Overall, the scenery is pleasant, but the scenic area's service facilities are incomplete, with unclear entrance signs and directional signs. Many areas are still under construction, impacting the overall experience. Tickets are a bit pricey.
You can experience a walk from the canyon to the summit. While the walk from the ticket office to the summit can be a bit long, there are many beautiful photo spots, including a small waterfall, which is perfect for taking photos. Several areas within the canyon are not included in the ticket price (make sure to check carefully). After reaching the bottom of the canyon, if you've purchased the glass walkway package, you can take the 248-meter high-speed elevator (though it's not ideal for taking photos). After that, take the cable car to the summit, where you can experience the glass walkway. Of course, if you want to stand on the Buddha's hand for a photo, you'll need to go to the parking lot above. The photo cost 10 yuan (the Buddha's hand isn't included in your ticket). Wear shoe covers while walking on the glass walkway to avoid falls. You'll then walk a short distance, cross the Rainbow Bridge, and finally visit the 520 Sky City Observation Deck (another version of the glass walkway, but worth checking out if you want to see the canyon from the summit). Afterward, take the bus back to the starting point for 7 yuan. Tourists who want to experience different attractions can pay attention to which attractions they bought tickets for when they bought tickets, so as not to miss out on tickets for the attractions they want to visit.

Parking is convenient. It takes less than an hour to drive from Qujing. The ticket plus the battery car costs 70 or 80 yuan. The cost performance is average. The key is that it is cool. It is more refreshing when there is a little breeze. However, a very small number of people are not conscious and enter the colorful Shatin to take pictures. They turn a blind eye to the warning signs. Maybe they are uneducated and can't read. Nowadays, there are more than 100 people, and there are all kinds of people, haha
Here, there is a piece of land formed 340 million years ago, which has high tourism value and geographical research value, and is a rare natural wonder in the world; here, it is a desert in an oasis, a colorful and varied dream world; here, it is the world's largest colored sand sculpture theme park.

Very classic alpine grassland scenery, blue sky and white clouds, green grass and clear water. The scenery is quite beautiful. Children can ride horses. It was a bit crowded during the National Day holiday. We waited for nearly 40 minutes for the return shuttle bus.
I went there in the afternoon. The weather was good. The original pictures are so beautiful!
It is suitable for self-driving. After all, it takes an hour to get to Huize County. The road is not easy to walk. You have to wear a jacket in late August. The altitude is 3500+, and there is a slight altitude sickness.
You must eat the lamb skewers. It is delicious! Freshly cut, quite fresh.

The scenery is good, but the journey is a bit far. It takes an hour to drive from Luoping County, and you still have to take a sightseeing bus to get there, otherwise the road is too long. The picture shows that it is 6 kilometers one way to see all the attractions. We didn't take the sightseeing bus at the time, and we couldn't walk after reaching the second attraction, so we had to return.
Luoping is rich in tourism resources, and of course it is inseparable from the affectionate Duoyi River! This beautiful homeland where the Buyi people have lived for generations is beautiful with clear water and picturesque scenery. You can appreciate the folk culture of the Buyi people, enjoy the beautiful river, and feast on the Buyi people's five-color glutinous rice and grilled fish. It is worth a visit!

The Pearl River Source Scenic Area is more than 60 kilometers away from Qujing City. Navigate directly to the gate of the scenic area. Parking is convenient and free. The scenic area is covered with forests and is very cool. You need to buy a ticket for 35 yuan. If you want to go to Sanjiang Pavilion, it is recommended to buy a round-trip electric car ticket for 15 yuan. After all, it is a bit far. The water at the source of the Pearl River is quite large. There is a small waterfall next to the wetland. You can take a look. Sanjiang Pavilion has a wide view. There are many large wild azalea trees along the way. Unfortunately, it is not in bloom now. The toll for self-driving is 24 yuan per side. It is also good to come to the oxygen bar to breathe fresh air when you have time.
Very convenient, on-site ticket checking.
Not many people, nice scenery.
The battery car goes up and down 10 kilometers back and forth. The negative oxygen ion content on the mountain is high, so it is still necessary. The Pearl River Source Scenic Area is generally good and worth recommending. There are not many people during the National Day.

It is a rapeseed flower base with many rapeseed flowers growing well. It is a good place for taking pictures with children. Then, you can also come here to experience the field scenery, fly kites and relax.
The best time to view Luoping rapeseed flowers is from February to mid-to-late March. This place was once praised by Global Human Geography magazine as "the most beautiful spring in the world" and certified by the Guinness World Records as "the world's largest natural garden". When the spring breeze blows in late February every year, this land is like being carefully outlined by a golden brush. Millions of acres of rapeseed flowers are like a yellow ocean, magnificent and magnificent, and set off against the green peaks and islands, forming a beautiful natural painting. The fragrance of flowers is overflowing and refreshing. This is the purest gift given to us by nature. And here is also the first touch of gold brought by this spring, which makes people fascinated and intoxicated.
