I thought Wugong Mountain was already beautiful enough, until I went here
I thought Wugong Mountain was already beautiful enough, until I went here....
Jiangxi people really keep a tight lip, such a beautiful mountain and they don't promote it‼️
Located in Yiyang, Shangrao, Guifeng gets its name because it looks like a giant turtle. With its peculiar peaks and strange rocks, emerald waters surrounding, and its unique Danxia landform, it has even been recognized as a World Natural Heritage site by the United Nations. After the rain, the clouds and mist linger, resembling a fairyland, truly an underestimated treasure of a tourist destination in Jiangxi!
If you don't want to be crowded during the May Day holiday, you can head here without a second thought. At Guifeng, follow the footsteps of ancient travelers seeking beautiful sunsets, and enjoy a unique adventure. Make sure to organize a detailed guide and remember to save it first!
