2026 Ji'an Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in February)

#Charter Bailuzhou Academy is a national key cultural relic protection unit. This famous academy was built in the first year of Chunyou in the Southern Song Dynasty (1241) and was founded by the patriotic Prime Minister Jiang Wanli when he was the military governor of Jizhou. Jiang Wanli was attracted by the quiet and peaceful environment of Bailuzhou and thought it was an excellent place to study and clear the mind, so he built a temple and opened an academy. The academy is located on an oasis in the Ganjiang River east of Ji'an City (very suitable for chartering a car or driving yourself). It is named "Bailuzhou" because egrets often live on the island. The environment here is beautiful, with clear water and egrets flying among the trees. It is an ideal place to study. The location of Bailuzhou Academy not only reflects the ancient people's awe and respect for the natural environment, but also laid a solid foundation for its subsequent development. Since Jiang Wanli founded Bailuzhou Academy, it has played a leading role as a model. Under the cultivation of the academy, Luling scholars became famous in imperial examinations, scholars formed a forest, writers formed a school, officials formed a group, writings formed a mountain, and patriots died for their country, making Luling culture prosperous for thousands of years and becoming the center of Jiangxi culture. When you come to Bailuzhou Academy, it is very convenient to charter a car and drive yourself, because there are plenty of parking spaces. On the southwest side of Bailuyuan Community - there are parking spaces on the ground in the parking lot, which makes parking super convenient✨; it only takes 8 minutes and about 620 meters to walk to the entrance of the academy! Or you can go to the roadside parking lot on the east side of Yanjiang Road, which is also a ground parking space and has no pressure to park. It is about an 8-minute walk, about 530 meters away, to reach the academy. As a cultural landmark in Ji'an, Jiangxi, Bailuzhou Academy is a must-visit. Detailed address: No. 248 Yanjiang Road, Jizhou District, Ji'an City, Jiangxi Province

A hidden Shang Dynasty underground bronze kingdom! ...In Jiangxi!! Ji'an, you're so low-key! From Nanchang to Ji'an for the Youth REVEL Music Carnival to see Li Yuchun And a side trip! The Ji'an Museum is magnificent! The Bronze Kingdom exhibition was incredibly impressive! This is Jiangxi's version of Sanxingdui! And there are so few people here! This exhibition focuses on displaying a rich variety of artifacts unearthed from the Shang Dynasty tombs in Dayangzhou, Xingan County, including bronze ritual vessels, weapons, tools, and musical instruments. It unveils the mysterious veil of the Bronze Age in the Jiangnan region. The most striking feature is the enormous bronze head of a two-faced deity, mysterious, eerie, and awe-inspiring. Its half-human, half-divine form may correspond to the role of a shaman in the Shang Dynasty, bridging the gap between humans and gods. Its round upper part and square lower part aligns with the ancient Chinese concept of a round heaven and a square earth, symbolizing its power to connect heaven and earth. The exhibition hall also simulates an archaeological excavation site, which children find very interesting.

🌧️ 01｜A rain at the village entrance soaked me into a Ming Dynasty person Take the high-speed train to Ji'an Station, then a 30-minute taxi ride. The drizzle was like fine ink. The driver said, "The 'Mei' in Meibi is pronounced méi, an ancient water name; 'Bi' means shore—a village by the water." I looked up, the blue brick horse-head walls blurred in the rain, like a water-stained "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" painting. The old camphor tree at the village entrance is 700 years old, its branches hung with red silk ribbons. When the wind passes, the whole tree whispers Ming Dynasty secrets with a rustling sound. --- 🏮 02｜In the old ancestral hall, a "Jinshi Pot" has been cooking for 480 years Following the village chief, I entered "Yongmutang." A "Jinshi" plaque hangs high on the beam, dated the 38th year of the Ming Jiajing reign. The iron pot on the stove, 1.8 meters in diameter, still cooks the "Jinshi Banquet" for visitors—red yeast pork, glutinous rice chicken, soy sauce fried rice, with oil patterns forming the characters "Jidi" (success in imperial exams). I scooped a bowl and squatted on the doorstep to eat. Rain dripped through the tile gaps into the bowl, like history adding broth for me. --- 🛶 03｜In the afternoon, I rowed a "daydream boat" for half an hour on Luling's "Little West Lake" The "Mei River" in Meibi Ancient Village loops around the village in a "U" shape, with rapeseed flower petals floating on the water. For 5 yuan, rent a wooden boat. The boatman, an elderly man wearing a bamboo hat, said, "Row or not? If not, just drift." I lay back; the boat board was slightly warm from the sun. The white walls and black tiles on both banks receded, clouds moved in the sky, and I lay in the water. At that moment, my phone signal dropped to two bars, but my heart was full. --- 🌙 04｜At 7:30 PM, when the ancient village lights up, I accidentally wandered into the filming set of "Chang'an Thirty Thousand Miles" Along the alley, 220 "Luling Lanterns" were hung, their shades made of rice paper, handwritten with the characters "Meibi." At "Zhenhanfang," a shadow puppet show began. On the white screen, Lü Bu was fighting Diao Chan, while the old artist behind hummed the Ji'an Tea-Picking Tune. I raised my phone to film; my shadow was cast on the screen and on the thousand-year-old wall—turns out I was part of a "time-travel Easter egg." --- 🚄 05｜Reminder for changes and cancellations: Only 15 days left for the rapeseed flower season! Trip.com data: Spring 2025 searches for Meibi up 280% year-on-year, weekend homestay occupancy at 100%. For those wanting to check in to the "Ink Reflection," place your order now for the "Luling Spring Charm" package: ✅ Round-trip shuttle from Ji'an Station + Meibi entrance ticket ✅ One night in a Ming-Qing dynasty style homestay in the ancient village (carved bed + courtyard) ✅ Jinshi Banquet for two (red yeast pork + glutinous rice chicken + rice wine) ✅ Complimentary VIP seat for shadow puppetry + "Luling Lantern" handmade experience --- 💌 Epilogue｜Bringing Meibi's rain back to the office On the subway back to the city, I put a tile fragment I picked up in Meibi into my pencil case. At the next morning's meeting, the tile corner made a soft "click" sound—like the ancient village reminding me: "Don't live your life like a PPT, remember to occasionally create an ink painting that breathes." So, don't wait for the next spring— "While the rain still moistens, while the flowers still bloom, place your order now!"

Who says you have to travel far to see snow? I found an "Ice and Snow Fairy Tale Town" just 2.5 hours by high-speed train from Hangzhou! The snow here is dense, the atmosphere quiet, perfect for a slow-paced, immersive winter vacation with kids. The detailed guide is ready for you to copy! ⛷️ Ice and Snow Kingdom Family Guide Beginner Ski Slope Experience: The ski resort has a dedicated children's ski teaching area, with patient instructors and complete equipment. Kids over 5 can try beginner skis; remember to book one-on-one lessons in advance. Non-Skiing Fun: • Snow Petting Zoo: Alpacas and miniature horses are especially cute in the snow; you can buy carrots to feed them. • Handmade Cyanotype Workshop: An indoor alternative! Create unique blue art using sunlight and leaves—quiet and fun. • Nighttime Stargazing: On clear nights, the hotel organizes professional guides to show winter constellations, with Orion especially clear. Key Info: Ice and snow activities are highly temperature-dependent. Be sure to check the official channels (like Trip.com) for daily opening status before traveling. ♨️ Warm Winter Hot Springs Guide Public Hot Spring Area: Recommended is the "Starry Sky Pool Area," semi-outdoor design with mountain views overhead. Features ginger and milk pools—healthy and fun. Private Hot Spring Homestay Options: If your kids are young or you value privacy, strongly consider rooms with private hot springs. Soaking in warm water under the stars with family at night is a trip highlight. 🚌 Easy Family Transportation Choices Best Route: After arriving by high-speed train, it’s recommended to charter a car or book hotel transfers. Carrying kids and luggage makes local bus transfers inconvenient. Parking Tips: If driving, the scenic area parking lot is some distance from the main hotels and temperatures drop at night. Confirm with the hotel if there are closer parking areas or shuttle services when booking. 🏡 Deep Sleep in Snowy Beautiful Stays Sanqingshan Boxinyunshe·MCA: Combines tea culture with lodging, huge public areas including a book bar and kids’ media room. Rooms have ample floor heating, so kids can run barefoot without worry. Wang Sanqing·Private Villa: Ideal for two families or large groups. The whole villa includes kitchen, living room, and private courtyard hot spring—great for cooking and gatherings. Sanqingshan Kaiyuan Mingdu Resort: Rich in family activities with different themed crafts and games daily. Parents can enjoy some short “childcare” breaks. 🎒 Thoughtful Pre-Trip Tips Health Protection: Mountain areas have big temperature differences and are prone to colds. Bring common children’s cold medicine and vitamin C effervescent tablets. Indoor air is dry, so bring a small humidifier. Photography Tips: Dress kids in bright colors (red, yellow) for great photos against the white snow. Use frost as a foreground to add depth. Off-Peak Secret: Weekends are crowded; try to visit Monday to Thursday for a better experience. Delay lunch by an hour to avoid restaurant crowds. Winter here has a quiet yet rich beauty. It’s unassuming but heals everyone silently with soft snow, warm mountains, and clear starry skies.
