The Underground River

The Underground River is located 8 km east of Lanxi and is also known as "Liudong Mountain". It is particularly famous for two attractions: The Underground River and Qixia Garden. In the attraction, an underground river over 1 km long runs through it, with water flowing year-round, and its source remains unknown to this day. Taking a boat ride along the underground river inside the karst cave is the unique feature and highlight of visiting the attraction. The cave sightseeing area can be explored either on foot or by boat. It's quite interesting to observe the surrounding stalactites hanging upside down from the boat. Moreover, the admission ticket already includes the boat fee, so it's worth giving it a try. The entire boat ride covers approx. 800 m. After disembarking, you can exit the cave via the stone steps, with many uniquely shaped stalactites to admire along the way. Not far from the attraction, the ancestral home of the renowned socialite Miss Zhao Si, Qixia Garden, is located in Dongyuan Village. This Qing Dynasty Huizhou-style brick-and-wood structure displays historical materials and stories about Miss Zhao Si and General Zhang Xueliang. If interested, you can visit.Lanxi · 7.7 km from downtown

The Shuanglong Cave Scenic Spot features a water-filled karst cave. The name Shuanglong, which translates to double dragon, comes from the stalactites resembling dragon heads that guard the entrance to the cave. The cave's outer entrance is warm in the winter and cool in summer. Visitors can gladly escape from the outside heat when visiting in the summer. To enter the cave's interior, visitors must lie down in a boat that travels through the stalactites. It's an exciting and unforgettable experience.Jinhua · 16.3 km from Lanxi

Daciyan Scenic Area
No. 6 of Fall Viewing Attractions in Zhejiang

Daciyan Scenic Area

4.6/5
2.8k reviews
Daciyan Scenic Area is located 24 km south of Jiande. The mountain features a glittering double-sided Buddha statue, and the temple architecture halfway up the mountain is half embedded in the cliff and half suspended in the air, similar to the Hanging Temple of Mount Heng, earning it the nickname "Hanging Temple of Jiangnan". The attraction everywhere embodies the character "suspended"; plank roads, temples, and the giant Buddha are all built against steep cliffs. Although most of them have been rebuilt, they still make people marvel at the creativity of the ancients. Tour Route The scenic area features a roughly circular route. For visiting Daciyan Scenic Area, we recommend taking the cable car up the mountain and then walking downhill counterclockwise, which saves both time and energy. After ascending, there are still uphill and downhill mountain paths to navigate, with some exposed areas that can get quite sunny in summer. The main highlight is walking along the winding cliffside boardwalks to admire the mountain-embedded pathways, temples, Buddha statues, as well as the distant rolling green mountains and tiny towns below - creating truly spectacular views. Xuankong Plank Road From the foot of the mountain, you can see the glittering double-sided Buddha statue on the mountaintop from afar. After getting off the cable car, a short walk up the mountain leads to the suspended plank road. The plank road offers an excellent spot to photograph the panoramic view of the main buildings in Daci Cliffs Scenic Area, so don't miss it. After walking across the plank road, don't forget to turn back and take a close-up photo of it; the flying eaves and corridor pavilions clinging to the mountainside are also iconic views of Daciyan Scenic Area. Continue walking a bit further, and the natural standing Buddha is another unique feature here: from the side, the main peak of the entire Daciyan Scenic Area closely resembles a standing statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Strange rocks, peculiar caves, and plants harmoniously form the facial features of the Great Buddha, and visitors invariably stop to admire it. Temple interior view Daciyan Scenic Area features two major highlights: the Two-Faced Buddha and the Ksitigarbha Hall. Visitors can walk along the plank path to see the Two-Faced Buddha up close or visit the Ksitigarbha Hall to pray for blessings. Behind the Heavenly Gate, cherry blossom trees are adorned with red ribbons tied by visitors, creating a serene Buddhist atmosphere. The statues in the Arhat Hall also showcase remarkable artistic expression. After visiting the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Hall in Daci Cliffs Scenic Area, exit the temple gate. On your right, there is a trail leading down the mountain (approx. 30 min). The trail is quite hidden; if you can't find it, you can ask the staff. The scenery along the downhill path is also beautiful, with a stream accompanying you. In October, when the ginkgo trees turn yellow, the view is even more charming. If you wish to take the cableway down, you will need to return to the upper cableway station via the same route. Additionally, Xinyue Ancient Village, the filming location for "Where Are We Going, Dad?" in 2014, is not far from Daciyan Scenic Area, so you can visit both. It's a great experience to see old houses, explore ancient villages, and try the "celebrity-style" amusement rides.Jiande · 20.2 km from Lanxi
Lanxi Ancient City

Lanxi Ancient City

4.4
4.1/5

The ancient city of Lanxi is in the shape of a half-moon, with Dayun Mountain in the east and Lanjiang River in the west. There used to be four gates: Anzheng Gate in the east, Mingde Gate in the south, Qingbo Gate in the west, and Gongchen Gate in the north. Northeast Water Gate, Longli Gate (Water Gate Pier) along the Yangtze River, Liujia Pier and Zhujia Pier were added in the Ming Dynasty. Due to the disaster of war and disrepair for a long time, most of the ancient city walls have been destroyed. The more than 600 meters of city walls that still exist along the river were rebuilt in the seventh year of Ming Zhengde (1512), and the rest were rebuilt in 1995. You can vaguely appreciate the unique features of the ancient city of Lanxi. West Gate Tower Lanxi Ancient City used to have three towers in the south, west and north, all of which were built in the seventh year of Zhengde in the Ming Dynasty (1512). During the Anti-Japanese War (1939), in order to prevent air raids and facilitate the evacuation of people, the south and north gate towers were demolished together with the east and south city walls, while the west gate tower was retained as a hanging bell because the west city wall along the river was not demolished as a flood protection bank. For alarm purposes. In 1985, the west gate tower collapsed. The existing West Gate Tower was rebuilt in 1995. The main building is on the 2nd floor, standing along the river, with a majestic momentum, which is a good place to board the Range Rover. The residential area in the area from Fuling Lane to Kite Lane to the south of Yan'an Road in the urban area still retains the style of the residential buildings in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. This residential community covers an area of about 3 hectares, with mountains and rivers, east-west layout, ups and downs, in harmony with the natural environment. Most of the planes are "three rooms, two rooms and one patio", generally on the second floor, with a wooden structure, gray tiles and white walls. The unique form of Lanxi dwellings has played a certain role in the development of Huizhou dwellings. Alleys In the late Qing Dynasty, Lanxi City had 21 large and small streets and 87 alleys. The alleys such as Tanhua and Zhongxi in the residential community to the south of Yan'an Road in the urban area still retain the characteristics of the streets and alleys of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. This kind of alley is narrow and long, which plays a certain role in fire protection. In order to strengthen the rigidity of the two gables, the two gables are connected by rammed walls. This is the innovation of the "lane" by the ancient craftsmen of Lanxi, which can be called a "masterpiece of architecture".Lanxi · 1.7 km from downtown
Danaye·Jinhua Mountain Little Iceland

Danaye·Jinhua Mountain Little Iceland

3.9/5
20 reviews
Danaye·Jinhua Mountain Little Iceland is a cultural and tourism space in Jinhua Mountain transformed from an abandoned mine. It was once an old limestone mining area. After the lime factory ceased production, only steep, exposed gray-black rock walls and deep pits remained. It later became popular after the movie "The Southernmost Land" was filmed here. The giant wooden whaling ship built by the film crew is still stranded on the gravel beach by the lake, becoming a highly recognizable scene. Today, the gray-black rock walls surround a pool of clear, azure mine lake water. The pervasive mist and the black swans swimming on the lake make the entire valley look cold and empty, possessing the temperament of a Nordic wilderness, which is why it is called the "Little Iceland of Jiangnan." The craggy rock walls, the stranded whaling ship, the black stone beach by the lake, and land art installations such as "Wedding Under the Glacier Ruins" and "Lone Boat in the Mist" are all popular photo spots. A mine-themed bookstore is embedded under the rock wall, and the park is scattered with rock-style creative cafes and wilderness camping areas. The open mine water area has been transformed into a diving base where you can experience diving and other water activities. The temperature in the valley is lower than in the city all year round, making it especially cool in summer, suitable for taking photos, camping, and leisurely strolling. Wearing dark or solid-colored clothing creates a stronger contrast with the gray-black mountains, resulting in better photos.Jinhua · 14.3 km from Lanxi

The village was settled by descendants of Zhuge Liang during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period when they were appointed magistrates in Lanxi. Nestled deep in the mountains, the village was designed and built according to the Bagua (Eight Trigrams) principles, and is predominantly inhabited by people with the surname Zhuge. The quaint, traditional courtyard houses are very rustic and charming. Highly recommended. By the way, don't take the electric carts at the entrance of the scenic area; it's just a short walk, and there's absolutely no need to waste money.

The scenic area is easy to find, with plenty of parking. It's really comfortable to visit in the summer. When taking the boat, there are signs indicating when to bend over to avoid bumping your head, and the entire boat ride is very comfortable and cool. The water in the underground river is very clean and clear. The stalactites in the cave are beautiful, and each attraction is labeled with its resemblance to something. There were also women picking up litter along the way. There are stone benches for tourists to rest on, and police officers are available to help inside the cave. Walking through the entire scenic area is a bit tiring. The exit is halfway up the mountain, and after that, it becomes a bit desolate. The descent is a quiet and pleasantly shady path, perfect for a summer visit!

This is the old-fashioned soy sauce workshop in Youbu. It's not very big, and you can see some homemade soy sauce products displayed at the entrance. The prices aren't high either. Youbu Ancient Town is famous for its morning tea and bridges, and there are several other attractions besides this soy sauce workshop and the Langjingshan Museum. Overall, it's a very leisurely trip, and the soy sauce workshop is definitely worth a visit.

There weren't many people there at 4 p.m. The underground river boat ride was unique and lasted several minutes. It felt more fun than the Shuanglong Cave. Afterward, you can even take a ride down the slide for a thrill. Recommended.

As someone from a AAAAA-rated hotel, I feel the bus service, reminder service, and everything else are terrible. Maybe the service at Shuanglong Cave is a little better. Moreover, there are so many ways they make money that it discourages other people from spending money. —From a solo road trip around the world, staying in hotels for hundreds of days a year, visiting all sorts of attractions, big and small, wild and unregulated. I don't have a star rating system; I judge based on different environments and circumstances. My own experience is the standard.

The environment is beautiful. The park designed by a designer is different. The cruise ship is worth a ride, the viewing platform is worth a visit, and the Lanhu restaurant is worth a meal. There are not enough amusement facilities. I think a Ferris wheel can be added to overlook the entire lake. It will definitely be very popular.

The Daci Rock Scenic Area is nice. The Hanging Temple on the mountain is quite impressive and beautiful. Taking the cable car up is relatively easy. Usually, you take the cable car up and then walk down the mountain without going around in circles. If you take the cable car down, you have to walk back the way you came.

Lanxi Ancient City is still worth a visit. I went there in the morning. The pancake and fried dough stick breakfast stalls had the flavor of childhood. The Gaotianzi Tower was well preserved. The ancient city was quite ancient, unlike many other newly built "". It was a gathering place for the people in the market, but it was a bit noisy.

Family! Jinhua's "Little Iceland" Dana is also super cool! The ruins style is matched with the azure blue lake, and the photos are high-end. The surrounding area is the natural scenery of Jinhua Mountain, and the air is fresh. This place is niche and unique, and there are not many people, so you can have fun. Don't miss this treasure when you come to Jinhua. Highly recommended!
