Two-day tour of Qi Yun Mountain, experience the beauty of Danxia landform and ancient villages Today I'm going to share with you a super awesome two-day tour of Qi Yun Mountain that I just experienced. Departing from Huangshan North Station, the scenery along the way is picturesque, as if stepping into a long scroll of landscape. Transportation: We started from the high-speed rail Huangshan North Station, took a direct bus or taxi to Qi Yun Mountain, the transportation is very convenient. Accommodation: In Qi Yun Mountain town, we chose an antique inn with a quiet environment and complete facilities. The price for one night is very affordable, although the specific cost is not mentioned, but believe me, it's definitely worth it. Attractions: On the first day, we visited Qi Yun Mountain, a scenic spot famous for its Danxia landform, which is breathtaking. We took the Yuehua cable car up the mountain and enjoyed the views of the cloud street, cliff carvings, Danxia landform, etc. The tour route includes Wangxian Tower, Shouzi Rock, Zhenxian Cave Mansion, Yuehua Street, Incense Burner Peak, Tai Su Palace, Small Pot Sky, Yuxu Palace, Ziyun Pass, Wulao Peak, Fangla Fort, Danxia Corridor and the highest peak. Finally, we took the cable car down the mountain, looking at the scenery under our feet, as if in a fairyland. Bilian Pond: There are cliff carvings here, which is a good place for photography. Yuehua Street: A village on the top of the mountain with shops, restaurants and homestays. Walking on the ancient streets, it's like going back to ancient times. Small Pot Sky: The hidden 'Gourd Gate', suitable for photography. Standing here, it's like being in a painting. Yuxu Palace: The red Taoist temple is located under the cliff, very stunning, also a good place for photography. Tour time: The whole tour up the mountain takes about 4-5 hours. So I suggest you guys start early. Precautions: Be sure to wear comfortable clothes and shoes. After all, we have to walk a long mountain road to enjoy these beautiful views. The last cable car down the mountain is at 16:50, if you miss it, you'll have to walk down. So be sure to keep track of time. There are many attractions in Qi Yun Mountain, if you want to have a deep tour, it is recommended to plan your itinerary in advance. Be sure to pay attention to safety on the mountain, do not climb places without safety protection such as rocks. Please keep the environment clean in the scenic area, do not litter. Overall, this two-day tour of Qi Yun Mountain made me feel the grandeur of nature and the charm of culture. If you also want to have a spontaneous trip, why not come to Qi Yun Mountain!

Mount Qiyun of 2061.3 M height, locates at Shangyou County of Jiangxi Province, and one of the Ten Famouse Mountains in Jiangxi. As it's still not reachable by any pave road, it stays very wild and natural for hikers. It's highly recommended to have a 2-day hike and camp on the mountain top at night. On the way to the top, you would come across a bamboo forest, then thick woods, and then reach a grassland with lots of lovely cow families. What I love this mountain the most, must be the clouds surrounding it, and the stunning sunset, moon-rise, and sunrise! As we just finished enjoying the beautiful sunset, turn around, there was the soft moon rised from the pink and light blue horizon afar. First and best mountain camping experience up till now. * It's quite windy at the mountain top, do prepare a proper sleeping bag. * There is a very small stream for water, but a little bit dirty, need to boil before drinking. * Bring enough food with you as there is no supply on the way up. #momentsmission #beautifulsunsets#naturalwonders#camping#hiking

The world's Shangbao, Hakka's terraces 📍Location Navigation: Shangbao Terraces, Chongyi County, Ganzhou City. 🟩Attraction Introduction: AAAA-rated scenic area, consisting of several villages. The scenic area stretches from the foot of the mountain along the mountain up to the inside, featuring an agricultural culture park, Dapaizi attraction, Muzipai attraction, Baiguibu field attraction, etc. There is a large parking lot at the foot of the mountain, and if you are staying in the scenic area, you can drive up. There are many indigenous people living on the mountain. 🕒Opening Hours: All day, the best viewing period is from late September to early October each year. 🎫Ticket Price: Normally, the ticket is 60 yuan, and the sightseeing car is 30 yuan/trip, but if you stay overnight in the scenic area, the accommodation fee includes the ticket to the scenic area but not the sightseeing car ticket. Just show your accommodation order at the entrance of the scenic area, and the ticket inspectors will ask which homestay you are staying at. The sightseeing car ticket is valid for the whole day and can be used multiple times, while the entrance ticket is valid as long as you don't leave the scenic area. 🚗Travel Planning: Drive directly to 'Shangbao Terraces Scenic Area'. This attraction is not very convenient for public transportation and is suitable for self-driving. You can take a high-speed train to Ganzhou West, then take a Didi or rent a car to get there, about 120 kilometers away, 2 hours' drive, and the cost is about 150-180 yuan. The road conditions are good, with green mountains and rivers all the way to the scenic area, which are all asphalt roads. It's worth praising that although Jiangxi's economy is not strong, the rural road construction is quite good. 🏠Accommodation Arrangement: There are quite a few homestays inside, but they are scattered because the attractions are dispersed. There are renovated old houses and newly built ones, as well as some popular homestays, with prices ranging from 200-800 yuan. There are quaint wooden houses, and the whole room is filled with the scent of wood, which is particularly relaxing. It was very quiet when I went there at the end of September, and it is recommended to book in advance during holidays. ✅Travel Planning: DAY1⃣: Agricultural Culture Park -> Dapaizi Attraction -> Muzipai Attraction. DAY2⃣: Shangouzi Attraction -> Baiguibu Field Attraction. ✅Photo Spots: Dapaizi Viewing Platform, Baiguibu Field Viewing Platform. ✅Clothing Preparation: It's a bit chilly in the mountains at the end of September, so just prepare a thin long-sleeve shirt, and white or red clothes are photogenic. ✅Food Experience: There are plenty of seasonal fruits and vegetables, and each homestay grows various fruits and vegetables, with specialties like bamboo shoots and cured meat. ✅Spending Level: Moderate, about 1000 yuan per person for two days. ✅Experience Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Compared to the fame of the Longji Terraces, this place is a hidden gem. If you like quietness and being close to nature, this is a place worth visiting. These terraces are the largest Hakka terraces in China, awarded 'Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems' by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, and included in the 'World Irrigation Project Heritage List'. The surrounding mountains are covered with hemp bamboo, and the negative oxygen ions in the morning and evening are off the charts. The various bird calls and the sound of mountain springs make your mind peaceful and your thoughts distant.

🌟Highlights: The Shangbao Terraces in Shangbao Township, Chongyi County, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, are located in the mountains at the junction of Hunan, Jiangxi, and Guangdong provinces. They are one of the three major terraces in China and represent the Hakka terraces. In May, the terraces are in the plowing season, just irrigated with water, looking sparkling and extending like waves or fingerprints, very magnificent. It's just a pity that there was a heavy fog on the mountain that day, and nothing could be seen of the terraces at the Bagua Ridge, while the scenery at the waist of the mountain was just right. 🏨Accommodation: There are 8 homestays scattered from the top to the bottom of Shangbao Terraces, each with its own piece of terraced fields. If the weather is good, it is recommended to stay overnight in one of them for a more leisurely experience. 🚉Transportation Tips: Although the transportation to Shangbao Terraces is relatively remote, the infrastructure is very well developed. It takes about 2 hours to depart from the urban area of Ganzhou, half on the highway and half on rural roads, all of which are smooth asphalt roads. The roadsides are filled with blooming little yellow flowers (daisies), truly the most beautiful countryside scenery. ⏳Recommended Duration: 0.5-1 day
