Mount Danxia Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Danxia Grand Canyon
The Danxia Grand Canyon hike in Guangzhou is an absolute hidden gem that should not be missed by any nature lover or adventure enthusiast. From the moment you set foot on the trail, you'll be captivated by the stunning beauty and tranquility that surrounds you.
The hike itself is a moderate level challenge, perfect for both beginners and experienced hikers. The well-marked paths guide you through a diverse landscape, featuring towering red cliffs, lush greenery, and breathtaking waterfalls. It's like stepping into a postcard-worthy scene that seems almost surreal.
What sets this hike apart from others is the unique rock formations that have been sculpted by nature over millions of years. The vibrant hues of red, orange, and yellow create a mesmerizing display that is truly awe-inspiring. It's as if you're walking through a natural art gallery, with each turn revealing a new masterpiece.
The trail offers several viewpoints along the way, allowing you to pause and soak in the panoramic vistas. Whether you're gazing at the expansive canyon, the winding river below, or the distant peaks, every view is nothing short of breathtaking. Don't forget to bring your camera, as you'll want to capture these incredible moments to cherish forever.
One of the highlights of the hike is reaching the top of the canyon, where you'll be rewarded with an unforgettable view of the surrounding landscape. The feeling of accomplishment as you take in the vastness of nature's beauty is truly indescribable.
Throughout the hike, you'll also encounter various flora and fauna, adding to the overall enchantment of the experience. The sounds of chirping birds and rustling leaves create a soothing soundtrack that helps you reconnect with the natural world.
The trail is well-maintained and there are ample facilities along the way, including rest areas and clean washrooms. This makes it convenient for hikers of all ages and fitness levels to enjoy the hike without any worries.
If you're planning a trip to Guangzhou, I highly recommend adding the Danxia Grand Canyon hike to your itinerary. It's a refreshing escape from the bustling city life, offering a chance to reconnect with nature and rejuvenate your soul. Whether you're looking for a peaceful hike or a thrilling adventure, this hidden gem won't disappoint. So put on your hiking boots, pack some snacks, and get ready for an unforgettable journey through nature's masterpiece. #hike #danxia #guangzhou #hiking #hikingtrails #Hiking trail adventure
Danxia on the water
Another way to view Mount Danxia without climbing - an hour boat ride on the river to enjoy the beautiful scenery on both sides with ease at a reasonable cost.
The cost of the ride is about CNY120, but can be negotiated with the locals for a better discount.

World UNESCO Geopark - Ximei Fortress, Danxia
Once you've climbed to the top of the hill of Yangyuan Stone of Mount Danxia, walk to the other direction for 10 minutes and you will reach another scenic spot - Ximei Fortress. It was built in the 17th century for the protection of the local population from warfare. Although it will take over an hour to climb from the bottom, the view is stunning to see from the top.

World UNESCO Geopark - Yangyuan Stone, Danxia
A scenic park you shouldn't miss if you are visiting southern China, Mount Danxia Geopark is in Renhua County of Shaoguan which is famous for unique terrain and amazing sceneries. If you are in good shape and like either mountain climbing or outdoor activities, you need to spend for 3 days visiting most of the best scenic spots.
Yuanyang Stone Area, one of the main attractions in Geopark for visitor to visit on the first day. However a pretty challenging path for both adult and children that requires at least an hour to walk uphill, but it will be worth for an effort once you've reach to the top.

Maozi Peak Forest Farm Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
The maple leaves in Guangzhou are red again this year, come and enjoy the fastest autumn in China
Guangzhou's autumn this year is really beautiful! The Red Maple Garden is located in Mao Feng Mountain, where there is a red maple forest🍁, adding a strong color to Guangzhou's autumn. At this moment, Mao Feng Mountain is being decorated like a poem and a painting by the red maple. I am very lucky to be able to appreciate the beautiful red leaves in Guangzhou and take unforgettable photos with them.
If you want to come here to take pictures, I have a few small tips🔔:
1️⃣ Although the Red Maple Garden is not large, there will be some people coming to enjoy the scenery and take pictures even if it is not the weekend. Because the trees are not tall, it is more suitable for shooting small scenes. As long as you find a good angle and wait a little, you can capture the beautiful scenery without being disturbed.
2️⃣ If you drive🚗 to Mao Feng Mountain, you can directly park in the parking lot on the top of the mountain (next to Tian Lake), and you can reach the red maple leaves in two or three minutes on foot. If you choose to walk up the mountain, it will take about forty minutes.
3️⃣ There is also a stone tablet staircase next to the red maple leaves that is very suitable for taking pictures📷, as if you are in a forest with only red maple. After shooting the Red Maple Garden, you can continue to take pictures in the fir forest next to it.
Mao Feng Mountain is easily accessible, you can drive there, or you can take the subway to Taihe Station Exit C, and then take the 758 bus to Mao Feng Mountain Terminal. Whether you drive or take public transportation, you can easily reach this beautiful place. Come and feel the charm of Guangzhou's autumn!
