Things to do in Hefeng

Compared to Enshi Grand Canyon, I highly recommend Pingshan Canyon. Don't choose the so-called "lazy person's route" with boats in and out; you still walk quite a bit, and you repeat the same route both ways, going up and down a long stretch of steps inside the cave and missing a lot of scenery! Just take the regular route; even as a lazy person, I thought it was fine. The cliffside views are absolutely stunning!

The scenic area is nice; you can enter by swiping your ID card, and it's worth a visit. Wearing a fairy-like outfit will make for better photos. Overall, it's quite good. First, you walk down to the bottom of the valley, then play around. At the bottom is the leaf boat photo spot; you take photos yourself (3 minutes costs 30 yuan). Once you have a pose, take lots of pictures. Then walk to the end, take a boat ride, and then climb back up. The exit costs 10 yuan, then you can take a bus back to the parking lot. I suggest parking at point A, as it's a direct route. At point B, you have to walk back as the bus doesn't go there.

Amazing experience! Everything was great, the park is really well managed, we loved it. It’s totally worth it and I would go back again.

The Rongmei Tusi built a large-scale Juefu complex in Pingshan. To date, there are more than 50 sites including Juefu, Old Street, Wanquan Cave, etc., and thousands of historical relics have been unearthed.

Escape the hustle and bustle of the city, I found long-lost tranquility in this secluded mountain and water paradise. If you also want to give your body and mind a break, why not visit the Wulong Mountain and Water Scenic Area in Hefeng and embark on a journey to cleanse your eyes and mind with the beauty of nature? Upon entering the scenic area, the five open-air sightseeing elevators built into the mountainside immediately catch the eye. As you ascend, one side is a sheer cliff face, and the other side is the winding, crystal-clear waters of the Loushui River. The pristine mountain scenery unfolds before your eyes without any obstruction, and a gentle breeze instantly dispels any restlessness in your heart. Arriving at the Nandujiang Wharf, you board a new energy cruise ship and officially enter the Loushui Gallery. The river's water is crystal clear, and the banks are lined with layered mountains and lush vegetation. The sky and clouds are reflected on the water's surface, and a gentle breeze scatters the shimmering light across the lake. The air is filled with the fragrance of grass and the moist scent of the lake. Here, all worries seem to slowly dissipate with the flowing water. Along the boat, every step reveals a new scene, every place a legend. Passing the Nandujiang Bridge, formerly known as "Nandu Feihong," one can feel the ancient bustle of merchants along the ancient Tea Road; gazing up at the "Five Dragons Ascending to Heaven" peaks, the legend of five divine dragons guarding the Loushui River adds a touch of dynamism to the majestic mountains. Further on, unique peaks and rocks such as Yunya Houjun, Nantianmen, and Niujiaofeng appear one after another, each imbued with local legends and cultural imprints, truly achieving a constantly changing landscape. This journey through mountains and waters is free from the hustle and bustle of the city, accompanied only by green mountains and clear waters. The mountains hold poetic beauty, the water exudes gentleness. If you also seek a pure place to unwind, come here, let the green mountains cleanse your eyes, let the still waters purify your heart, and find inner peace and tranquility in the gentle embrace of mountains and water.

This place worth definitely a visit. Unfortunately the weather wasn't so good but neither so cloudy than you can't see anything. We took the escalator and completed the visit in 5:00 hours. Consider 1:30/2 hours just to complete the escalator up and down.
