If you still don't know where to go for the New Year, remember to send this note to your family when you see it, it's worth a rush for the New Year‼️
The 4A famous mountain in Zhejiang, which is known for its cave exploration, will be free of charge in 2024
For those who like to explore "magical" places, it's a great experience to visit some unexplainable and unique places!
For example, the first strange stone in Sanjin, Shanxi Zhiguo Stone, the 30 degrees north latitude Huashan Mystery Cave, the "natural yearbook" of earth and geological science Huguangyan, the world's four major natural mysteries Shennongjia, the Emei Buddha Light on Mount Emei, the lost Dali Jinso Island, and the mountainous area of 100,000 mountains, which has been a mountain range since ancient times, are all mysterious places that everyone is rushing to!
In fact, what you don't know is that there is a magical scenic spot in Zhejiang, which has the characteristics of "one mountain across three provinces" and "cave exploration", which is really eye-catching in 2024. You can come and challenge it when you have time.
The mountain I'm talking about is Fugai Mountain. Because the main peak is stacked with stones, the lower one is like a plate, and the upper one is like a cover, it is named "Fugai Mountain". The main peak is 1146.4 meters above sea level, with a total area of 14.40 square kilometers.
Unlike other mountains, Fugai Mountain spans Zhejiang, Fujian, and Jiangxi provinces. You can overlook the junction of the three provinces from the top, and if you're lucky, you can see the sea of clouds!
After starting to challenge the mountain, you will find that this mountain is really "honest", there is no cable car or other means of transportation, there are two roads for walking, one is the adventure road (cave exploration), the other is the step road, and the two roads are intertwined with each other, almost every cave has a step road to walk, you can explore the cave, or walk!
For the first time visitors, you can follow the route: Visitor Center - Lotus Cave - Die Shi Temple - Three Die Shi - Viewing Platform - Fugai Mountain Top - Viewing Platform - Three Die Shi - Die Shi Temple - Aotu Rock Face - Lotus Pond - Visitor Center.
What needs to be noted is that you can climb the Lotus Cave up the mountain, but it is not recommended to take the Lotus Cave down the mountain, which is more dangerous!
On the way up the mountain, you will find that the mountain is really great, challenging in the combination of climbing and cave exploration! You can walk up the plank road steps, or shuttle in the original mountain stones, occasionally you will see a lot of pictographic stones, use your imagination, you can get a lot of surprises!
After reaching the top, the scenery of the main peak is really "beautiful", the clouds that are within reach, the tough and upright mountain body, the lush forest, the small town with the smell of fireworks, a gust of wind blows, fully experiencing the feeling of "overlooking all the small mountains"! It's like being in God's perspective, that experience is indescribable!
For those who drive by themselves, you can drive to the halfway point near an altitude of more than 500 meters, and then hike up more than 600 meters to the highest peak of 1146.4 meters.
Moreover, Fugai Mountain has another highlight, that is, it is usually free from Monday to Friday, and charges are only on holidays and weekends.
For those who like to check in, you can focus on taking pictures of Lijian Peak, Shilian Pool, Xianzhang Stone, Xianrenji, Bishi Peak, One Line Sky, Longchi Longdong, Songyan Cave, Shuangsun Stone, Xianren Peak, Chessboard Stone, Donggua Stone Toad Stone, Fugai Mountain Top, Three Die Stone, Baihua Rock, Lishan Temple, Die Shi Temple, Dayun Temple.
Among them, One Line Sky is worth staying, because it is located to the east of Bishi Peak, and is a rock fissure type cave. The cave entrance is only a narrow foot wide, and the top and bottom are like one. The climb to the top of Fugai Peak is from this fissure, which is very interesting.
Fugai Mountain Tourist Tips:
The ticket is 45 yuan , located 3 kilometers south of Twenty-eight Du Town, Jiangshan City, Quzhou, Zhejiang Province. Take Jiangshan 311 Road to Station and walk. It is recommended to drive by yourself.
The feeling of climbing Fugai Mountain is very good, the adventure road section designed with special terrain is very interesting, the photos are also good-looking, it will pass through caves, climb stone piles, climb stairs, cross single-plank bridges and other terrains, it is fun and not tired!

Xianxiaguan Scenic Resort Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Xianxia Pass is one of the four great ancient passes in China
Xianxia Pass, where the light of swords and shadows of blades travel the ancient path.
China has four great ancient passes: Jianmen Pass, Hangu Pass, Yanmen Pass, and Xianxia Pass.
Xianxia Pass is located on the ancient Xianxia trail. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the army led by Huang Chao entered Fujian from Zhejiang, carving out this mountain-crossing and ridge-traversing route that stretches over 300 li from Jiangshan in Zhejiang to Pucheng in Fujian.
Thereafter, it became an important land transportation route for the maritime Silk Road.
Silks, porcelains, and teas produced in Zhejiang, Fujian, and Jiangxi were transported through the ancient Xianxia trail to the southeastern coastal ports. This place also served as a vital traffic route between Zhejiang and Fujian, known as the 'throat of Zhejiang and Fujian'.
Xianxia Pass is built at the narrow pass between two steep mountains, with two stone gates in the middle of the perilous pass. In the event of an enemy attack, once the stone gates were sealed, it would be impossible to pass, embodying the saying 'One man guards the pass, ten thousand are unable to open it'.
The entire Xianxia Ridge still has four gates today, from north to south: the first, second, third, and fourth gates, with a distance of 1500 meters between them. The ancient path between the first and second gates is the steepest, and the distance between the second and third gates is only about a hundred meters.
The first gate is Xianxia Pass, which is 40 meters long, 7 meters high, and 5 meters thick, with gate doors 3.6 meters high and 2.6 meters wide. The walls of the pass are entirely built with rough and strip stones.
Zhejiang, you are confused not to promote this treasure place!

Root Palace Buddhist Culture Tourist Area Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
This park is a fantastic place which is worth visiting in Quzhou, Zhejiang Province. There is huge carving sculptures and great lakes with carving zoo animals museum. Also there is ice palace, where the temperature is lower than 0°degree. There is many sculptures made from ice cube. From October there is opened a glass bridge under the park and there is every day shows with light and music from 6.30 p.m. The prices are not cheap but I highly recommend to visit that place!
Check out the lesser-known 5A scenic spot in Zhejiang - the Root Palace Buddha Land in Kaihua, Quzhou
Visiting Quzhou during the May Day holiday is a wise choice! Compared to other places, Quzhou is truly a rare paradise, with few people and beautiful scenery. I highly recommend everyone to come and experience it~
⭐⭐Root Palace Buddha Land Cultural Tourism Area⭐⭐
I want to introduce you to a unique tourist holy land in the world - the Root Palace Buddha Land. This is the only tourist area in the world themed on root culture, worthy of being a national 5A-level tourist scenic spot! Here, you can appreciate thousands of large-scale root art works, including more than a thousand giant root carvings of Buddhist culture series. These works perfectly combine root carving art and Buddhist culture, giving people a sense of shock. For example, there is a root carving Buddha statue of Sakyamuni, weighing 40 tons and reaching 9.9 meters high (Figure 3), which is simply amazing!
🚔Transportation: It's very convenient to drive or take a taxi!
🎫Ticket: The usual ticket price is 80 yuan, and it will be slightly more expensive on holidays
⏱️Opening hours: From 8:30 in the morning to 4:30 in the afternoon
⌛Tour time: Half a day is recommended for touring, but if you have enough time, it's suggested to spend a whole day!
🔍Tour tips:
1. The scenic area is very large, with south and north entrances, please plan your route in advance.
2. In addition to root carving art, there are many other highlights, such as the aerial glass plank road (Figure 5) and the peacock pavilion. There are also wonderful 'Root Palace Night Banquet' performances in the evening, with a wide variety of content.
3. This place is very suitable for relaxing, walking around and appreciating, and you can also take very classical photos haha. What's even better is that there are fewer people during the off-peak tourist season, so you can enjoy the tranquility and the fun of taking photos.
The trip to the Root Palace Buddha Country in Quzhou, Zhejiang, is less crowded and niche
🚶🏻♂️The Root Palace Buddha Country is a root carving culture museum located in Kaihua County, Quzhou City. It is a 5A-level scenic spot, about an hour and a half's drive from Quzhou city center.
👉🏻The museum mainly exhibits the works of Master Xu Guqing and his disciples. The main theme is Buddhist statues, and there are also historical, mythological, and animal-themed statues. The Maitreya Buddha Hall and the Five Hundred Arhats Hall are very shocking. I especially like the Arhat Hall. The five hundred Arhats have different postures, their expressions are vivid and natural, their eyes are bright, and they seem to be about to speak to me the next second. The exhibition line design is also very smooth. The order of the exhibits in the History and Culture Hall is very confusing.
👉🏻The garden landscape in the scenic spot is also great. It is professionally designed, not the kind of forced assembly line landscape. There are 15 small white cars in the scenic area, which can be called and stopped at any time, which is very convenient. Finally, I have to complain about the shopping point at the exit. It's very long. A short 10-meter straight line distance has made almost four hundred meters of shopping channels. I thought I was in the wrong place several times.
🏞️Scenic Spot Features:
✅Root Carving Works
The Buddha statues with different postures and lifelike appearances, a total of more than 4,000 root carving works are shocking.
✅Glass Skywalk
The original price is 60, and it was half price when I went. Friends who are not afraid of heights must go. You can overlook the entire scenic area from above, which is especially beautiful.
✅Less Crowded
Going there once feels like a private booking.
💰Ticket: Night scene 55/person, refundable at any time. (Daytime 120/person, free admission from Monday to Friday on non-holidays.)
The overall play time is 3-4h
The predecessor of the Gen Palace Buddhism Cultural Tourism Zone is Kaihua County Root Bo Garden, located in Kaihua County, Cangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, with a total area of 3.03 square kilometers. The resources are huge and the types are rich, which is a shocking world. The only root cultural theme tourist area is well known both at home and abroad.
In the "Gen Palace Buddhism", you can appreciate thousands of ingenious root carvings. Every piece of work is worthy of a city. It is amazing. It is no wonder that there is a saying: "The world root carving looks at China, the Chinese root carving looks Kaihua." After you come here, you can feel that this sentence is truly deserved.
Various kinds of roots, big or small, different shapes, re-energize in the hands of the artists, and also reflect the industriousness and wisdom of the Chinese people, and the "harmony between man and nature" in Chinese culture. The concept is vividly displayed, so that every visitor who comes here will never forget.
