“When the Acacias Bloom, Spring Begins” 🌿 Spring arrives a little earlier in this city than elsewhere. Just before the New Year, I met up with my bestie to check out this hill where the golden acacia flowers have fully bloomed, turning the whole view golden and stunningly beautiful. 📍 Jiulong Bay, Panlong District 🚗 You can navigate directly to the War Dog Pet School (Panlong Campus). Follow the road uphill, and you’ll see the entire hill covered in bright yellow acacia flowers—instantly captivating. 🅿️ Parking on the roadside is super convenient, no need to hunt for a parking lot. It’s very hassle-free for friends driving themselves. 📸 Bestie Photo Tips 🔸 Walk up along the road; there are several acacia trees that are quite low, so you don’t need a ladder. You and your bestie can easily take beautiful photos with the flowers in the frame—100% chance of great shots. 🔸 The tree in the main photo is the prettiest one we found and the easiest to shoot at. It’s about 100 meters from the navigation point. There’s a dirt wall you can climb to get panoramic shots of the flower sea, whether sitting or standing, creating a full atmosphere. 🔸 In photo 3, there’s a whole row of acacia trees forming a golden sea of flowers along the roadside. This spot is a few hundred meters further up from the main photo tree. There aren’t many cars on the road, so you can safely shoot from across the street with your bestie. 🔸 We took photos around 6 PM, when the sunset hits the flowers just right, making their color even warmer and yellower. The photos naturally have a soft, gentle filter effect. 🔸 It’s quite windy on the hill, so besties coming to shoot should fix their hair and wear hats securely—watch out for hats flying off (learned this the hard way 😂). 🔸 There are several open forest areas on the hill, perfect not only for photos but also for walking dogs with your bestie. Dogs can run freely, but be mindful of local farm dogs and keep your own dog on a leash. 🔸 Most importantly! No crowds! No crowds! No crowds!! You can take photos with your bestie without waiting or dodging people. The acacia flowers here bloom better and more abundantly than at popular check-in spots, making it easy to capture stunning flower sea shots 📸. For friends spending the New Year in this city, hurry and get ahead with your bestie to play the romance of spring with just one click~

It's impossible to hide it anymore! The mountains, rivers, and local life of Nanzhao in Nanyang are the epitome of romance in southwestern Henan! ✨ "The green mountains never tire the eye, the flowing water never ceases its charm." Nanzhao, nestled at the southern foot of the Funiu Mountains in southwestern Henan, is a treasure trove favored by nature. Here you'll find unspoiled natural wonders, a rich tapestry of history, and a captivating local atmosphere that will leave you wanting more. 🌿 Driving into Nanzhao, head straight to Wuduo Mountain ⛰️ – free admission to experience the magnificent "Little Huashan of Central China"! Take the scenic shuttle bus to Wanfu Palace for blessings. Red walls and gray tiles are nestled among the green mountains. The stone steps to the golden summit cling to the cliff face, and upon reaching the top, a sea of ​​clouds surges around the peaks, creating a scene of ethereal beauty. The 1300-meter-long glass walkway encircling the mountain is breathtaking; stepping onto it reveals a sheer drop below, and the moment you pass through a natural cave is an even greater surprise. On the way down, experience the thrill of the glass water slide – screams and exhilaration all the way! After a tiring day of sightseeing, grab a bowl of 1-yuan braised noodles at the viewing platform. The rich lamb bone broth with wide noodles is both comforting and heartwarming, embodying the honest and down-to-earth nature of the people of Central China. For a less-traveled, hidden gem, head for a hike on Shengduo Mountain. Ancient trees tower in the pristine forest, and the 6-kilometer hiking trail winds its way up to the summit, where alpine meadows carpet the landscape, wild rhododendrons peek through the trees, and the cliffside viewing platform offers panoramic views of the winding Baihe River. Every snapshot during sunrise and sea of ​​clouds is a masterpiece. 📸 The Zhiguoshigou in Cuizhuang is a summer gem, with clear streams flowing around stone slabs. Legend has it that this is where Bian Que (a legendary Chinese physician) used to cook herbs. Splashing in the water and having water fights is perfect for families with children. After exploring the mountains and rivers, be sure to try the local Nanzhao cuisine! 🍜 Zhangji Braised Noodles Restaurant's handmade braised noodles boast a fresh and chewy broth; Cuizhuang rice noodles are as thin as cicada wings, refreshing and smooth when served cold; the baked buns filled with braised pork are fragrant and crispy, bursting with flavor with every bite. And don't forget the magnolia flower stir-fried eggs – a local specialty that fills your mouth with the fresh aroma of the mountains. Nanzhao's beauty is hidden in the sea of ​​clouds of Wuduo Mountain, in the meadows of Shengduo Mountain, and in the warmth of a bowl of braised noodles. This ancient county, with its gentle landscapes and healing cuisine, offers a place where you'll truly understand the meaning of "the simple joys of life."

This is the Black Tiger Temple Village in the depths of Funiu Mountain. The Black Tiger Temple is a small village in the depths of Funiu Mountain. This small village has been unknown for many years. It is so common that even many Nanyang people do not know its existence. This year, however, this small village is extraordinary, it is world-famous, and it is getting better and better. The Black Tiger Temple is famous in China, mainly because of one person: Zhang Yu Rolling Teacher. If you have seen moving China, then you will know the name "Zhang Yu Roll". Teacher Zhang Yuquan was touched by China's 2018 people. It was a model of the times. Before that, he was only the principal of the Black Tiger Temple Primary School in Gaoqiu Town, Zhenping County. He was a post-80s teacher who had been rooted in the countryside for 18 years. Into the Pinghei Tiger Temple in Nanyang Town, Henan Province, perhaps you will have a new understanding of the word "hold".
