Things to do in Nanling

Although the scenic area I visited wasn't large, the discounted package deal was incredibly cost-effective! There weren't many people when I went, so there were no queues for any of the facilities, making for a perfect experience. The rafting only ran once an hour because there were few tourists, and we waited a little while, but it was totally worth it. The glass walkway wasn't very clean, which actually made it less scary, haha. I have to give it five stars, mainly because it's super pet-friendly! I took my dog ​​on the cable car, walked on the glass walkway, went on the glass rafting, and the zipline – everything was seamless and we had a blast!

Yongquan Town and Jiubao Hot Spring are my favorite places. They offer healing for both body and mind, with natural hot springs. In autumn, soaking in the pools and watching the maple leaves fall onto the water washes away all your fatigue.

Xihe Town is an ancient port in southern Henan Province that is steeped in the fragrance of tea. The long bluestone street winds like a dragon's spine, with old houses from the Ming and Qing dynasties on both sides. The red sandstone wall foundation holds up the carved wooden building, and the tea plaques drying under the eaves are rolling in the green waves. The stone steps of the ancient wharf are submerged in the tributary of the Huaihe River. Although the grand scene of thousands of tea boats in the old days has passed, the sound of the pestle of the laundry woman still breaks the sparkling waves. The most colorful place is the tea market - the beams and pillars of the century-old tea shop are filled with tea smoke, and the rustling sound of the iron pan frying new leaves, the cocoon patterns between the fingers of the tea farmers and the veins of the baskets tremble at the same frequency. The mottled stage of the boat gang hall is hidden in the deep alley, and the residual warmth of the merchant gang's secret language remains under the flying eaves; the broken walls of the ancient village are covered with vines, and golden chrysanthemums and yellow flowers peek out from the gaps in the arrow crevices. There is no pretentious "ancient town" label here, only the shoulder pole bent by the tea basket and the steam rising from the purple clay teapot in the old teahouse, which have boiled 600 years of commercial port memories into mellow tea soup. You can taste the warmth of time in every sip.

We randomly picked a spot while driving with friends, and it turned out to be the most unforgettable stop on our trip to southern Anhui. There were no crowded tour groups, and we strolled around the cave, joking and laughing. Even the little bats we encountered along the way became fun surprises. This relaxed feeling was truly rare.

My second visit to West Lake was great; the boat tour was excellent. The dock was easy to find, the staff were very friendly, provided clear explanations, and helped with any issues. There were also sightseeing buses, which were nice but a bit pricey. Taking the boat tour and then walking around was both perfectly fine.

Mount Jingting owes its fame to Li Bai, and Li Bai came to live here because of Xie Tiao; these histories are told to the world within this mountain. Within the mountain are all the historical stories that have been sung, displays of Shi Tao's Xuanzhou School of painting, Jingting Green Snow Tea, and beautiful green hills. The entire scenic area is not overly commercialized, but full of poetic atmosphere. Climbing to the top offers a panoramic view of the entire city—a truly breathtaking sight!

After a long and tiring journey, I was fortunate to find this gentle haven. The clean room, soft bed, and warm, attentive service offered respite from the outside world, providing a peaceful respite from the hustle and bustle. Outside the window, a gentle breeze and the glow of the sunset graced the space; inside, relaxation and tranquility prevailed. This trip was truly worthwhile; I look forward to returning.

There are only two slopes, and you still get soaked. The rest are for the elderly. The green mountains and green waters are quite comfortable. I like the elderly. It is comfortable and cool to lie down all the time. The 30-degree temperature feels like 20 degrees on the boat. The water is a bit dirty when you are about to reach the end. There is a free shuttle bus back to the starting point at the end. If you want to change clothes, you still have to park your car at the end and take the shuttle bus to the starting point.

It cost an extra 20 to drive up the mountain, which is my favorite way to travel. I think the scenic area is good, but it feels like a semi-finished product at present. The back half of the scenic area is still under renovation, so I didn't get to play most of it. It was a bit of a scam, and there was no warning. My comment should be regarded as a warning. At present, I just drive in and take pictures!

"Having seen the Five Sacred Mountains, one need not see other mountains; having seen Huangshan, one need not see the Five Sacred Mountains." Seeing it with your own eyes, you'll understand that this saying is no exaggeration! We traveled with our elders and chose the cable car route, which was less strenuous, avoiding the need for a full hike. The ancient welcoming pine tree is beautifully shaped, and strangely shaped rocks are scattered throughout the mountains. If you're lucky, you might even witness a sea of ​​clouds, with mist flowing among the peaks like a scene from a traditional Chinese ink painting. The Bright Summit offers a panoramic view of the rolling mountains. The mountain path has many steps and some sections are steep, so be sure to bring hiking poles, walk slowly, and rest frequently. The temperature on the mountain is lower than at the foot, so remember to bring an extra jacket. The scenic area has excellent facilities and rest stops along the way. Although it's physically demanding, the magnificent scenery makes it all worthwhile and highly recommended!
