The scorching summer heat is unbearable, do you want to go on a refreshing summer trip to cool off? Where should you go? Departing from Shanghai, it takes about 2 hours by car to reach Yixing... Here, there are natural air-conditioned rooms provided by nature, which are particularly cool. The clear water activities here are fun and exciting, and the scenery is very pleasant, making it a perfect summer destination. How to enjoy a summer trip to Yixing? The first stop is Yixing Bamboo Sea, a national 4A-level scenic spot. The entire area is covered by bamboo forests, with a total area of 200,000 acres. Here, you can check in at the highest peak in southern Jiangsu. If you hike through the bamboo forest, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way, which takes about two hours. Another option is to take a sightseeing car and then transfer to a cable car to go up the mountain. This is less strenuous. The cable car is over 1,400 meters long and takes about 25 minutes to reach the top. From the cable car, you can overlook the entire bamboo sea and feel the treetops of the bamboo. The feeling of being shoulder to shoulder with the tall bamboo, blowing the cool breeze in the valley, feels cool and comfortable. At the top of the highest peak in southern Jiangsu, you can see a panoramic view of the lush greenery. This is also where the three provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui meet. The second stop, if you take the cable car up the mountain, it is recommended to walk down to experience different scenery. At the foot of the mountain, the source of Taihu Lake flows with spring water naturally filtered through the bamboo sea, also known as bamboo root water, which is drinkable. The pure natural spring water is icy, clear, rich in minerals, and has a slightly sweet taste. This is the closest source to Taihu Lake, so many people come here to drink some spring water. The third stop, how to tour Yixing to cool off? Zhanggong Cave is one of the three caves in Yixing. In the Zhanggong Cave scenic area, there are two natural air-conditioned rooms. The first is the underground river adventure. Walking down the steps, you immediately feel the temperature drop, and waves of coolness hit you. At the entrance of the cave, you can see white cold air with the naked eye. You can enter the Yiquan Cave by kayak. The cave is about 500 meters long and is said to maintain a constant temperature of 18-20°C all year round, making it warm in winter and cool in summer. The water is less than 0.8 meters deep, and the water cave is not very high. There is only faint light in the cave, and the various shapes of the stalactites on the top are very spectacular. The body feels very cool in the cave. The fourth stop is Donglingguan. After the water adventure, go explore the cave. The entrance is also filled with visible cold air. The large cave is connected to smaller caves, making the quiet karst cave exploration very cool. The fifth stop is bamboo forest rafting. The bamboo forest rafting is 1,500 meters long and takes about ten minutes. A kayak can hold up to three people. The slide is not wide, and there are guardrails on both sides, making it quite safe. It's like playing a large-scale rapid in nature! In summer, water activities are always very popular. The summer water battles are exhilarating, and Yixing is a great place for a summer trip to cool off!
