🗻Dongjiang Lake Scenic Area 东江湖风景区 This amazing lake is a great place to spend a day. You can take a cruise that stops in two spots that deserve a visit: Doushuai Rock兜率岩 and Longjing Grand Canyon Waterfall龙景大峡谷瀑布群. (pics. 1,2&3) 📸Rucheng Hot Spring Fuquan Resort: this hot spring is amazing and incredible cheap. Rucheng, the village where is located, is a very beautiful place with natural and free hot springs. (Pic. 5) ⛰️Wanshi Mountain 万时山 This mountain has a beautiful view and it's a nice hiking to enjoy and escape the city. (Pic. 4) You must know that this place is easy to reach by fast train but to move around is better to have an own car. Worthy! #naturalwonders#lakes

Dongjiang Lake is a huge area with tons of things to see, do and explore. When entering you can buy tickets which include bus and boat and rafting tickets. The bus takes you past a dam and to the main area with restaurants and shops. You can then walk to some of the waterfalls and shorter paths. The boat from there takes you to the island after a 20 min cruise where you can do more walks or go into the huge limestone karst cave which you can see in my pictures is truly spectacular. There is an option of white water rafting on the other side of the lake which I didn't try. The cave was the biggest highlight for me, it was cool and damp and the paths lead you up and down and around the maze like cave for about a 20-30 minute walk. There are bats on the ceiling and huge limestone features everywhere lit up by multicoloured lights. It's like an alien world and something that no pictures do justice. The cave is very large and at the end of the path you can buy souvenirs. In dongjiang lake I would recommend trying some local small spicy fish snacks.

Getting There - Taxi or car from Chenzhou takes about 30 minutes. Close to Fetian mountain. Attractions - Scenic views, hiking trails, small rural village with a chicken farm, glass bridge Hotels - none close by, closest in Chenzhou Food & Restaurants - small stands selling water and snacks but no restaurants. Gaoyiling scenic area is an amazing place for walking and hiking and seeing awesome views. The landscape is interbedded red sandstone hills with steep drops into rivers and small lakes surrounding. The views are simply awe inspiring. When walking around here I would recommend a sun umbrella, sun screen and lots of water. You can buy water and other drinks here from the locals. There is a 20RMB charge to enter the hiking trails. When high on some hills take extreme caution near edges as the drop offs are steep and lethal, some are not fenced off. The only downside is the hills have quite a lot of trash so make sure to take yours home with you and be a good tourist. It's also extremely hot here in peak summer so maybe avoid that time of year.
