Fell in love on my first visit! Jiangxi's hidden gem is truly amazing

Taking advantage of a break, I went to Jiangxi with my sisters and unexpectedly discovered a lesser-known secret spot—Guifeng⛰. Guifeng in Jiangxi is not only a World Natural Heritage site and a World Geopark but also a national 5A-level tourist attraction. Fewer people, beautiful scenery—red cliffs of Danxia rise steeply, strange peaks shrouded in mist; boats glide over clear waves, passing through green fairyland, every scene like a painting. If you want to avoid crowds during the National Day holiday, come here for off-peak travel~ - 🏞 There are 3 hiking routes of different difficulty levels to choose from‍♀ I chose the Xiake Route (about 8km, can be completed in 3.5 hours) ✅ Divine Turtle Welcomes Guests ➠ Century-old Path ➠ Green Fairyland ➠ Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers ➠ General’s Tower ➠ Hero Slope ➠ Crape Myrtle Garden Along the way, each peak and rock has its own charm. 【Green Fairyland】 🌫 The most captivating is Green Fairyland, with mist swirling around, like stepping into a real-life “Lord of the Rings” forest. The dense forest and thick leaves make you feel like you’ve crossed a “dimensional gate.” Sunlight filters through the leaves, and the air is filled with moist greenery—this is the exclusive sense of freedom that belongs to Guifeng. Wear light-colored or fairy-style dresses here for photos, perfect for a stunning nine-grid post on social media~ - 【Guifeng Lake (Boat & Bamboo Raft)】 The biggest surprise is the bamboo raft on the lake; the water is so clear it reflects the sky, and every shot looks amazing💧. The lake water is as clear as a mirror, the gentlest reflection of the peaks. Taking a boat ride lets you admire the grand mountain views, while sitting on a bamboo raft is more poetic, slowly gliding across the lake as if time itself slows down. 【Jinzhong Peak】 From the top of Jinzhong Peak, you can see the entire Guifeng landscape, with beautiful scenery all around! There’s a little surprise at the summit—a playful rocking horse, truly unique! - 【Night Tour of Guifeng】 (19:00-20:30) Guifeng at night is even more imaginative than during the day. When light and shadow blend with the night, the mountains are no longer just mountains but flowing poetry and dreams. ✔ Intangible Cultural Heritage Fire Pot Performance (19:30): Flames and power dance together, instantly igniting the valley. ✔ Live Scenic Performance (20:00): Actors share the stage with nature, with the mountains and waters as the grandest theater. - 🛏 Accommodation: I chose to stay at the Bishui Danxin Hotel inside the scenic area. The design is very elegant, and you can enjoy the Danxia scenery right from your room. The butler-style service is thoughtful and convenient! - Travel tips: ✔ Pay attention to safety and sun protection; wear lightweight sports shoes as walking time is long; ✔ Bring some water and snacks, and definitely bring mosquito repellent as there are many mosquitoes on the mountain; ✔ Make sure to set your location to [Yiyang Guifeng Scenic Area]!
