It's just like a small town from the Western World.
This place is located in an abandoned 🪨 quarry in Jinhua's Jiulong Village, covering an area of about 200 acres. Little Iceland is actually a mountaintop ⛰️, but this mountain is special, as it is made of typical limestone, appearing blackish-grey, 🌿 without a blade of grass, resembling a black sand beach. Beneath this dark rock lies a lake, with clear and cold water, 🌬️ and when the wind blows, ripples dance across the surface. It is said that this place was discovered by the film crew of 'The Farthest South', who built a whaling ship 🐋 according to the needs of the plot.
Now, this place has become an internet-famous spot, overcrowded, no longer the leisurely and comfortable small town it once was
‼️ Therefore, make sure to prepare well before visiting Little Iceland, and it is suggested to come in the 🌅 morning or forenoon. At this time, the sun rises in the east, full of vitality, and the photos taken are especially beautiful, but the most important point is that there are fewer people, the whole scenic area is yours, 📸 take photos however you want, and it's easier to get good shots. If you come during noon, not only does the light lose its three-dimensionality, but the place is also full of tourists, making it hard to find a poetic and picturesque atmosphere.
📷 Photography suggestions:
Bring a transparent or pure black umbrella as a photo prop
Photos taken on rainy or foggy days will feel more atmospheric
Nearby attractions include the Jinhua Shuanglong Scenic Tourism Area (Shuanglong Cave, Lünu Lake, Huang Daxian Ancestral Palace), and friends who are interested can also explore these places~
I feel that this is an artist contracted attraction, he knows how to create beauty. Tickets are a bit expensive to 78 and claim to be limited to 500 people per day. But considering that it takes one or two hundred to watch a painting exhibition in a big city, after all, the outdoor air is good, and the price/performance ratio is okay. If there is no ticket, it will probably really burst. I have not been to Iceland, and the white rock and ice blue lake feel good. I came in before 4 o'clock, sitting on the camping chair by the lake and listening to music to rest. It is closed at 18 o'clock here.
Jinhua "Little Iceland" is located in Jiulong Village, Shuanglong Scenic Area, about 17 kilometers from the city, half an hour by car. Since "Little Iceland", "Little Iceland" was originally a quarry, and it has been abandoned after parking. In the past few years, the crew came to make movies, built a big ship, and built two rows of European and American-style cabins. After the crew left, they left a big ship and a wooden house. Because its background is a deep black mine rock wall, there are several large clear bottoming ponds in the mining area, and the overall effect of taking pictures is very European and American style. Therefore, it is known as "Little Iceland" by everyone. Later, with more advertisements and wedding photos taken here, it became an online red punching point. [View] The effect of taking pictures of large boats and wooden houses in the morning or near the evening will be more European and American style. The snow scene of "Little Iceland" is very beautiful. [Fun] Because it is in the mountains, the air is fresh, the pond water is clear, and the water is not charming. [Cost-effective] is currently free, and it is still under planning. Note: Don't go near the rock wall of the mine when playing, to prevent the ore from falling and hurting people.
Yesterday afternoon, Jinhua began to snow, and it was intermittently one night. This morning, I went up the mountain to small Iceland to see the scenery of small Iceland under ice and snow. Under the snow cover, the rock wall of the mine is white and black, and it looks more wilderness and desolate, and the effect is more European and American style. It is rare to see snow in the south, and this year is special. It is rainy and snowy weather before and after the Spring Festival, but it is the first time I have seen it in Little Iceland. It is a worthwhile trip. Little Iceland was originally a mine, stopped mining for many years, a crew came here to shoot a film in the past few years, in order to shoot a pirate ship and two rows of European and American-style cabins. The group drama went away, and the boat and wooden house were retained. Later, the competition became a net red punching point for advertising and wedding photos, and the flow of coming to play was endless. Little Iceland is a free attraction. The scenic spot is still under development. When playing, you must not be too close to the mountain, so as not to hurt people by the pumice on the mountain. Pay attention to safety.
Little Iceland is in Jiulong Village, Shuanglongdong Scenic Area, an abandoned mining area. The hull left by filming in previous years has become a tourist photo, wedding photography, costume model advertising photo net red punching point, very exotic feeling. You can stay at the Suihua B&B in Shuanglongdong Scenic Area, and take sunrise and sunset in small Iceland in the morning or evening.
On the weekend, I led the crew to the small Iceland of Shuanglong Scenic Area to shoot the scene and stayed at the Huajia B&B. The weather was a bit cold in the morning and only 2 or 3 degrees. The three small actors were very dedicated and the shooting was very smooth. Little Iceland is a good outdoor shooting attraction, with European and American styles, great. Special thanks to the owner of Yuhua B&B for his thoughtful and warm service.
