The Jianshui Confucian Temple is said to have been built by gentry and common people who migrated south after the fall of the Song Dynasty. Jianshui was formerly known as Lin'an Prefecture, and it shares a lineage with Hangzhou (then called Lin'an), the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty. The temple is not only a place for worshipping Confucius, but also a testament to the integration of Ming and Qing architecture, Confucian education, and frontier culture. Its magnificent "sea of ​​learning" (a semicircular pond), exquisite stone carvings, and profound cultural heritage make it an unmissable historical and cultural landmark in Yunnan.

It boasts a rich history, ancient legends, a small train from the Republican era, unique geography, and a vibrant display of karst caves illuminated by lights.

The scenery along the way wasn't great, especially on the road from the first stop, which was mostly residential buildings and a bit distracting. It improved a lot later on, and each stop was worth seeing. Overall, the photos turned out better than the experience itself.

The scenic area isn't very large. After entering the gate, I bought tickets for the magic carpet for my parents. The magic carpet didn't have any safety features, which made me feel a bit unsafe. Inside the scenic area, there are several photo spots at the tropics boundary, which are quite nice.

Here is a review of my trip to Fuxian Lake in Yunnan: Fuxian Lake is truly a stunning place, a hidden gem of Yunnan. Picturesque Scenery The lake water is crystal clear and azure, like jelly, with extremely high visibility, making the pebbles and small fish underwater clearly visible. The lakeside ecological park boasts vast green lawns, and the wooden boardwalk is a photographer's paradise, offering stunning shots whether it's morning or evening. The sunset, in particular, with its orange hues reflected on the lake, is breathtakingly beautiful. Abundant Activities There are many fun activities to enjoy. For example, at the Star Fish Cave, you can rent kayaks or sailboats to enjoy a relaxing time on the water; Moon Bay Wetland Park features coconut groves, white sand beaches, and an infinity pool, making it feel like a mini-Sanya, perfect for family trips. Tempting Cuisine The food at Fuxian Lake is also unforgettable. Copper pot fish is a must-try local specialty. The freshly caught fish, cooked in a flavorful broth, results in tender, melt-in-your-mouth fish. The accompanying copper pot potato rice is also very fragrant. Street vendors selling chilled pea noodles and iced rice porridge are also delicious and offer excellent value. However, the facilities at Fuxian Lake Scenic Area do have some shortcomings. Some attractions are quite remote, making transportation inconvenient. The distances between attractions are considerable, making it difficult to explore without a car. Furthermore, some popular spots, such as the pink sand beach at Hongshanzui, differ from online descriptions; the beach has many pebbles, and the color isn't as vibrant. Additionally, some guesthouses in Guanglong Town have poor soundproofing, affecting the accommodation experience. Overall, Fuxian Lake is a perfect resort for relaxation. Despite some minor flaws, its natural beauty and unique experiences make it well worth a visit.

The scenic area isn't very large; a leisurely 3-4 hours is sufficient to explore it all. The main area features a red brick design, with attractions like the "Kaleidoscope," "Seal Workshop," and "Cow Drum" being particularly distinctive buildings. The entire park is a fascinating red brick art gallery. Unfortunately, perhaps due to the season, there weren't many flowers in the flower fields; several areas had only recently been planted with new flowers.

The spa is spacious, with the outdoor hot springs shaded by trees and filled with squirrels. I loved the fish spa pool, where tiny fish kept chasing after food at my feet. The spa is located across the garden, with a large pool on the first floor. There's a lounge on the second floor, and a buffet on the third (for an additional fee).
