Jinyun Xiandu || It makes sense for immortals to gather here for cultivation
|| It makes sense for immortals to gather here for cultivation. Everyone should visit Jinyun Xiandu at least once in their life!
This is Jinyun Xiandu, named after Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty said, 'This is truly a city where immortals gather.' It is also the filming location for many TV shows and movies like 'The Legend of Sword and Fairy.' With green mountains and clear waters, I recommend you to come and embrace nature. It takes about a day to walk around. If you have enough time, you can stay overnight and experience it fully.

👉Zhutan Mountain, a popular spot for farmers leading cows, is also a filming location for many fantasy dramas. It takes about 10 minutes to check in, and there is a farmer leading a cow performance every 2 hours. There is a tea room where you can rest.
👉Ni Weng Cave, where there are cliff carvings from various dynasties and a popular rock wall library. We didn't go there due to limited time.
👉Xiandu View, a place to worship the medical doctor Zhao Bing. It is also a filming location for martial arts dramas. The Taoist temple is built against the mountain, and there is a cave on the side of the cliff. When you pass through the cave, the view suddenly opens up, which is another side of the Taoist temple.
👉Little Red Cliff, a steep cliff that resembles the Red Cliff of the Yangtze River. There are inscriptions from the Ming Dynasty on the cliff. From Xiandu View, you can walk along the path under the cliff to the inscription site. Along the way, you can enter the ancient Dragon Plow Road, a natural stone corridor on the cliff, which leads to a place several tens of meters above the ground, overlooking the farmland and lake. The scenery is beautiful. These two attractions take about 2 hours in total.

㊗️Have a nice trip!
It is indeed beautiful and well-deserved. Most attractions do not need tickets, and there are scenic traffic between the attractions. It takes about 15 minutes to get there, but the traffic to the train station is very inconvenient.
The scenery is beautiful, there are mountains and waters, there are many homestays along the street, the price is not expensive, the price is very good, and the Jinyun sesame cake is also delicious. But the scenery is not as good as expected, at least there is still a certain gap between the cloud and the terraces.
The scenery of Dinghu Peak is beautiful, Huang Dixuan is very historical, and there is a sacrifice performance at 9:50. It is worth seeing. There are discounts for buying tickets on Trip.com one day in advance, including transportation tickets in the scenic area, you can go up and down at any stop.
Xiandu Scenic Area is the most representative scenic area in Lishui. The first stop of our scenic browsing car is its highlight Dinghu Peak, Dinghu Peak, the core of Xiandu Scenic Area in Jinyun County, Zhejiang Province. Dinghu Peak, like spring, straight thorny sky, high 170.8 meters, the top area is 710 square meters, the bottom area is 2787 square meters, can be called "the first peak in the world", "the first peak in the world". The peak and the pine and cypress are stored in a pool, and they are inexhaustible at four o'clock. The great poet Bai Juyi of the Tang Dynasty used the phrase "Huangdi's flag does not go back, the cloud is alone and the stone is alone. Sometimes the wind is blowing the lake and the waves are scattered as sunny and rainy spots." The verse depicts this wonder of the world, and we have the honor to watch the sacrifice ceremony of the Emperor Huangdi of the emperor's Zongxu. With the browsing car we arrived at the next stop of Zhutan Mountain, this is the best location to shoot Dinghu Peak, if you meet the old farmer, it will have a pastoral scenery. The rest also have the cave and the small red wall. Finally, I went to the fairy view to absorb the Xiaxianqi Xiandu Scenic Area. It is worthy of being a national 5A-level scenic spot. It is worth traveling.
The first time I went to Xiandu, it was really a fairyland, Dinghu Peak, Zhuyu Mountain was recommended, and the scenery was beautiful and picturesque. It is recommended to go in the morning, there are fewer people, you must take the cable car to the highest peak, the most beautiful on it, you can take pictures without obstruction,
The fairy spirit of Xiandu Scenic Area is floating. When I arrived, it began to rain in 2 attractions. Although there were fewer people in winter, it still felt very good. There are still people performing subjects 3, and the babies jump up with them. Dufeng College is the place where they used to read.
Xian is very immortal, Trip.com booking, fast and convenient, no brain, the visitor center gets on the bus and punches in various attractions, interesting, good physical strength, you can climb more mountains 😂, the main one is coming, the net red attractions and special snacks are all available 😁
The staff of the scenic spot is very good. Only one of the five main attractions is charged. Looking at the whole country, only Zhejiang is so atmospheric. It is worth slowly enjoying and slowly enjoying the leisurely time. Before I came, I read the Internet and said that it takes a long time to visit these attractions. In fact, it is not enough for a day. If you just walk around and watch the flowers, it is not meaningful to come here. Of course, there are also shortcomings. I think some attractions have not done enough guide signs, and it is easy to find the way. No matter what sunny and rainy days, Xiandu shows you a different scenery and a different feeling. I look forward to the next slow trip to Xiandu.
