We came here during the Spring Festival. The mountain road winds up, the mountains are high and steep, and the trees are lush. In spring and summer, the scenery is lush and green, and it should be more beautiful. Private cars can drive all the way to the foot of Jinding, and then walk 5 kilometers up the mountain road, or take a ten-yuan one-way battery car to the top of the mountain. There is a group of antique buildings on the top of the mountain, which is extraordinary. Climbing up Jinding, you can see all the mountains, and your mind will be broadened. You can also drive private cars to other attractions, such as Zhuangyuantai and Liangwangdong, which can be reached by self-driving in more than ten minutes. Overall, it's not bad. But it feels like imitating Wudang Mountain, but it doesn't have the beautiful scenery of Wudang Mountain, and the historical heritage is also insufficient.
The scenic spot is quite large and can be visited all year round. Because there are not only ginkgo trees here, but also Golden Summit, Zhuangyuan Terrace, and Dacien Temple. In summer, there are also waterfalls and Liangwang Cave.

There were too many people during the National Day holiday, and the sightseeing bus had to wait for a long time, which made the time a bit rushed. The scenery of Luoyan Island is very beautiful, the tickets are not expensive, and the children's playground is also suitable for children. It is no problem to stay there for a whole day on a leisurely weekend.
Donghu Lake is divided into many scenic areas, where you can ride a bicycle or take a sightseeing bus. The scenery is very pleasant, but the number of sightseeing buses is in short supply during holidays, so you have to wait for a long time. Moreover, pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles are all on the same road, so safety needs to be improved!

We watched a martial arts performance first, and the interactive segment was quite interesting. The ginkgo trees were a beautiful golden yellow in autumn. There's a Yi Jin Jing (Muscle/Tendon Changing Classic) stone carving outside the hall behind the Lixue Pavilion. The vegetarian restaurant at Huanxidi is indeed a bit pricey; a single set meal is 36 yuan, including two side dishes, a soup, and rice. Our group of six ordered five set meals, and after finishing them, the taste was acceptable. We bought some ointment from the Shaolin Pharmacy; I don't know how effective it is yet. The cable car ride from the top to the bottom of Haohanpo (Hero's Slope) is moderate, taking about two and a half hours. The shuttle bus from Haohanpo closes at 6 pm, and it's quite far to the Sanhuangzhai parking lot, so I recommend taking the park shuttle. A taxi from the Sanhuangzhai parking lot to the Shaolin Temple parking lot costs 22 yuan, and there are unlicensed taxis outside asking for 20 yuan per person; I suggest taking Didi (a ride-hailing app).
No spontaneous trip, just repeated plans. You watched the Shaolin martial arts performance, and I admired the thousand-year-old ginkgo trees. It felt so good to receive support. Arrived early at 10 am, no mountain climbing, no cable car, just a slow, leisurely stroll, stopping and going, eating and taking photos along the way. The 1500-year-old ginkgo trees could be photographed for over an hour. The red leaves at the summit are for those with stronger stamina to show off their skills! Cute Jing was also very helpful, today you're the leaf-scattering prop master! [relaxed][relaxed] Unexpectedly high-energy sand play next to the Pagoda Forest, exceeding KPI! [666][666] The only downside: Commercialization and rip-offs abound →→ 100 yuan for a photo with the little monk? Or is it just a phone photo? [weak][weak] A bowl of noodles at a snack shop costs 25 yuan, a blatant rip-off? No hot water if you don't buy food? [weak][weak]

Summer in Wuhan Jiefang Park is a season of dense shade, clear water, lotus blossoms, and vibrant life. The highlight is the visual delight and ultimate coolness brought by the vast expanse of blooming lotuses and the pervasive, dense green shade. It's not only a great place to admire natural beauty (especially the lotus blossoms), but also a prime spot for residents seeking a refreshing oasis and diverse leisure activities amidst the scorching summer heat. Strolling through the park, one can experience the poetic beauty of "the lotus blossoms glowing in the sun" and enjoy the comfort of "resting under the shade of a majestic tree." Dense shade, cool and comfortable: Towering trees: The park boasts numerous tall trees, such as sycamore, camphor, metasequoia, pond cypress, and ginkgo. These age-old trees, lush and leafy, form a continuous green dome. Natural Sunshade: The dense canopy effectively blocks the intense summer sun, creating vast shady areas along forest trails, benches, and lawns. The perceived temperature is significantly lower than outside the park, making it a perfect place for residents to escape the summer heat. A stroll through the park brings a cool breeze, instantly relieving the summer heat. Elegant Waterscapes and the Fragrant Lotus: Surrounded by a water system: The park boasts numerous lakes, ponds, and winding rivers (such as the "Deep Willows and Sparse Reeds" scenic area that runs through the park), encompassing a vast expanse of water. Blooming Lotuses (One of the Highlights): Summer is the peak season for viewing the lotus blossoms at Jiefang Park. Vast expanses of lotus blossoms cover the park's waterways, particularly near Gates 2 and 3 and in the central lake area. Vast expanses of lotus leaves blanket the water's surface, while graceful pink and white lotuses bloom in a myriad of shapes and colors, exuding a delicate fragrance that creates a truly iconic summer scene. Waterfront Landscapes: The water's surface is dotted with small bridges, pavilions, and plank roads (such as the "Flowing Shadow Slope"). Aquatic plants such as weeping willows and reeds are planted along the water's edge, creating swaying reflections and adding a lively and poetic touch. Waterfowl such as wild ducks and egrets play amidst the water, adding to the wild charm. Lush Greenery and Colorful Scenery: Lush Lawns: In summer, expansive lawns (such as those near Pigeon Square and the central lawn) radiate a vibrant emerald green, making them popular spots for leisure, picnics, and kite flying. Flower Borders: The park's meticulously arranged flower beds and borders display a variety of seasonal flowers (such as summer pansies, zinnias, globe amaranths, cannas, and crape myrtles) in vibrant bloom throughout the summer, creating vibrant embellishments between the greenery and waterscape. Featured Plants: In addition to lotus flowers, summer also features blooming crape myrtles ("crape myrtles"), magnolias (large, white flowers), and albizzia (velvety flowers). Jiefang Park is a popular summer destination for family outings (including pigeon releases, a children's playground, and lotus viewing). It's also an ideal spot for both tourists and residents to exercise and escape the summer heat.
Wuhan Jiefang Park is an urban oasis full of vitality and humanistic atmosphere. The park is shaded by green trees and flowers bloom in four seasons, especially the tulip exhibition in spring and the chrysanthemum exhibition in autumn. The artificial lake is rippling with blue waves, where you can enjoy the scenery by boating, and the trail along the lake is suitable for walking or jogging. The park retains historical marks such as the Soviet Air Force Volunteer Team Monument, adding a sense of heaviness. Elderly people doing morning exercises, children playing and artists sketching form a harmonious picture, which is an ideal place for citizens to relax.

The Hankou River Beach is the most scenic and longest section of the riverfront, perfect for a leisurely stroll rather than a rushed photo op. It frequently hosts various cultural and tourism promotional events. There's a chrysanthemum exhibition currently on display, which I recommend checking out; the panoramic views are quite pleasant.
The greatest charm of the autumn scenery along the Wuhan riverfront lies in its "fusion": The fusion of colors: the gold of the ginkgo leaves, the white of the reeds, the yellow of the river, the vibrant colors of the chrysanthemums, and the blue of the sky combine to create a richly colored oil painting. The fusion of time and space: the swaying reeds carry the poetry of a thousand years, the soaring bridges bear the imprint of modern times, and the towering buildings showcase contemporary ambition—all converging here. The fusion of character: it possesses both the powerful surge of the waves and the elegant fragrance of chrysanthemums; both the masculine strength of the soaring bridges and the feminine grace of the swaying reeds. The autumn scenery along the Wuhan riverfront is not a single scene, but a magnificent scroll woven from natural wilderness, historical sedimentation, and urban prosperity. It possesses both the ancient charm of "lush reeds" and the heroic spirit of "gazing at the vast expanse of Chu sky." Six distinctive features: Golden ginkgo leaves – a romantic corridor in the city; Dancing reeds – a poetic and rustic scene by the river; Fragrant chrysanthemums – a uniquely crafted autumn feast; Rushing waves – the majestic backdrop of the Yangtze River; Bridges spanning the river – a symbol of history and power; Towering skyscrapers – the skyline of a modern city.

Everyone should have a "first mountain" in their heart. Maybe it is not the highest or the most beautiful, but it must be the one you are most determined to climb and the warmest when you look back. It is an irreplaceable coordinate on your spiritual map.
This area primarily features the Mi family's ancestral hall, along with some stone carvings. It's perfect for those who enjoy history, especially those who appreciate the historical context. We wandered around for about an hour, but Xiangyang was incredibly hot. 🔥🔥🔥

The autumn colors of Wuhan's Baotong Temple offer a visually breathtaking blend of solemnity and splendor. The most captivating display of color is the Hongshan Pagoda, towering atop the mountain. As autumn deepens, the pagoda is enveloped by vast stands of ginkgo trees and ancient maple leaves. The golden ginkgo leaves and scarlet maple leaves, like an overturned palette, accentuate the ancient stone pagoda with an even more tranquil and profound aura. Climbing the pagoda, one gazes out upon the vibrant forests, the autumn colors complementing the ancient eaves and brackets. The temple's red walls, black tiles, and bluestone pavements, bathed in the clear autumn sunlight, create a stunning backdrop for the autumn foliage. Light and shadow filter through the branches, casting dappled shadows on the walls. When the wind blows, the falling leaves scatter, adding to the tranquility and Zen atmosphere. In addition, Baotong Temple's vegetarian restaurant features seasonal vegetables, allowing visitors to savor the delicious food while experiencing the gifts of autumn. In short, the autumn colors of Baotong Temple are more than just a natural spectacle; they perfectly blend the Zen spirit of a thousand-year-old temple, the solemnity of an imperial monastery, and the rich autumn colors unique to Wuhan. Less bustling and more tranquil, it offers a rare and tranquil spot within the bustling city, perfect for immersing yourself in the changing seasons. If the autumn colors of Baotong Temple are a tranquil classical painting, then the Wuhan Dream Mall across from it is a vibrant, modern ukiyo-e painting. Standing beneath the red walls of Baotong Temple or gazing from the Hongshan Pagoda, one's gaze easily transcends the lush greenery and vibrant autumn leaves to the sprawling modern commercial complex across the street. This visual contrast is striking: On one side, the Zen spirit and tranquility of the thousand-year-old temple, the quiet beauty of autumn leaves, the distant toll of bells, time seems to flow slowly here. On the other, the bustling and bustling of Asia's largest supermarket, with its flashing neon lights and bustling crowds, brimming with the latest consumer and entertainment energy. This scene of "past and present facing each other, just across the street" is the unique charm of Wuhan. You can spend an afternoon under the ginkgo trees of Baotong Temple, enjoying the quiet contemplation of autumn and the reflection of history, and then just steps away, immerse yourself in the vast space of Dream Mall and enjoy the ultimate convenience and pleasure of modern life. Transportation is extremely convenient, with direct access to both the subway and bus.
Baotong Temple was first built during the Liu Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties, with a history of more than 1,600 years. It is the oldest existing temple in Wuhan. The temple is built on the mountain, covering an area of ​​about 112,200 square meters, with a construction area of ​​6,600 square meters. The architectural layout is rigorous and well-proportioned. The main building is a brick-wood structure with a hip roof, brackets and eaves, and painted carved buildings, showing its simplicity, elegance, solemnity and luxury.

Xuzhou's must-see nightlife destinations: The Yunlong Lake Scenic Area Water World light show is incredibly captivating! The aquarium is a must-see! Admire over 200 rare fish species from four continents and five oceans. Enjoy mermaid performances, feeding shows, a marine specimen museum, and an interactive experience area where you can touch small fish, sea urchins, and starfish. The AI ​​smart screen also offers interactive games—a perfect place for kids!
Yunlong Lake Scenic Area Water World is a fun, family-friendly, comprehensive water park, especially suitable for parent-child interaction and technology enthusiasts. After a major renovation in 2024, it added high-tech interactive facilities such as a 360-degree dome theater, a VR exploration space, and a non-powered park. Combined with an aquarium and science education, it provides a rich daytime and nighttime entertainment experience. However, some visitors have reported that peak hours can be crowded, affecting the experience.

Scenic spot tickets in Anhui are twice as expensive as those in Jiangxi. A walk around Tianzhu Mountain reveals few noteworthy attractions, far inferior to Lingshan Mountain in Shangrao. The cable car fee is also outrageously expensive.
The cable car cabins were quite new, and they didn't force passengers to fill up when it wasn't crowded, but the price was a bit high. We took the western loop route, and the scenery was beautiful. The first hour of climbing was quite tiring, but reaching Tianchi Peak made it all worthwhile.
