The scenic spot is good. It is suitable for night tours in the hot summer. I think it would be better if the scenic spot ticket is valid for 2 days. After all, the time at night is limited. The scenic spot is not big. People now want to relax slowly. Those who are willing to stay will spend money after entering. Those who don’t stay will not waste another day, but they will definitely not want to spend the ticket money. They will definitely be willing to save money to buy food. I believe that the income of the scenic spot will also increase. I think it is still worth visiting.
The scenic area is picturesque, with a new view at every step; the trails are clean and tidy, with clear instructions, and both the elderly and children can enjoy the tour easily. The staff explained enthusiastically, and the toilets were clean and odorless. The evening light show was stunning and beautiful, and the ticket price was super value. Once you come, you don't want to leave. It must be recommended with five stars!

There won't be so many people if you go to the scenic spot earlier. I didn't have to queue for the cable car when I got there around nine o'clock, and I didn't have to queue for the cable car when I got down after twelve o'clock. The scenic spot is not big and you can basically finish the tour in half a day.
Finally arrived at the most beautiful village in the national geographic map
A dream of Wuyuan, only Huangling🍂🍅
Autumn sun drying, cooking smoke, and ancient Hui-style buildings
Constitute a healing rural painting
Being in it is like having a dream that travels through thousands of years

The scenery is similar to Huangshan and Zhangjiajie, but smaller in scale and less physically demanding.
The scenery is more beautiful in the evening, with fewer tourists and more flavor. You can see the lights of Shangrao city from a distance.
It is easy to do with children.
It is called Little Huangshan. Although it was raining, I still enjoyed the fun of climbing. The overall scale is not large, so it is relatively easy to complete. It does not require high physical fitness like Huangshan and Huashan. You can see the lights of Shangrao in the distance from the mountain.

It is very convenient to buy tickets on Ctrip. Wunu Island is so beautiful, with iron flower shows, fireworks, drone shows, and all kinds of performances are so beautiful and shocking. It is worth watching the performances at night.
In the summer of Wunu Island,
it is the face illuminated by the iron flower🎇,
it is the swaying water waves of the rowing boat🛶,
it is the cicada chirping outside the window of Xiangyumeisu~
The day is the gentleness of the ink painting of Jiangnan,
and the night is the fiery feast of the stars! 📍Wunu Island, Wuyuan, Jiangxi
🚄Wuyuan Station (🚗10mins by taxi)
⏰Open all day
🔥Recommended activities
1️⃣Intangible cultural heritage iron flower: From the time the lights of the Golden Pavilion are turned on, there will be iron flower every once in a while. It is recommended to take the blues time, and take live pictures with your mobile phone, which are beautiful🤩
2️⃣Water fire pot: There are ground fire pots and water fire pots here. The one on the water looks more like a phoenix rising from the ashes, and the visual effect is really good.
3️⃣Fireworks feast: Colorful fireworks burst into colorful light, and then fireworks will be set off at the Golden Pavilion or the Jade Tower🎆
4️⃣Bench Dragon: The intangible cultural heritage Bench Dragon appears after the lights are turned on and enters the village. You can follow the team to tour the town.
5️⃣Nuo Dance: Intangible cultural heritage dance, relatively novel
6️⃣Flame stunts: There are ground fire pots here, and actors play with fire knives and fire sticks
7️⃣Meet Wuyuan: Live performance, the dragon head will spit fire in the show, which is very shocking.
8️⃣Drone show: The evening shows are one after another, and the iron flower contact is followed by the drone show. Behind the Jade Tower, the circular space-time gate will also emit fireworks. Here, every frame seems to be gilded by time
You must come here~ Bring your favorite ones~
Turn the fireworks of the world into eternal poetry

We went to the night show and arrived at about 5 o'clock. The price was 80 yuan per person, the same for adults and children. There was a sightseeing bus at the entrance to take everyone to Xingchen Square. We caught up with the performance and watched the waterfall behind. Then we walked in, there were two fairies singing, and we also watched cockfighting, light show, water curtain movie, iron flower, thousand lights parade, and then returned to Xingchen Square to watch the fireworks show.
I have to say that this B&B is very cost-effective. I chose to stay outside the scenic area this time as I was traveling alone. The uncle of the B&B came to the entrance of the scenic area on a motorcycle at 9:30 pm to pick me up. The room was clean and hygienic, with air conditioning, TV, and new bath towels. The special details were that there were pens and small notebooks at the bedside, the water heater had plenty of hot water, the air conditioner was not noisy in the sleep mode, and the room was well soundproofed. The uncle also sent me to the scenic area shuttle bus point the next morning, and specifically asked me if I wanted to have breakfast. I said I planned to go back to Shangrao City to eat noodles, so I didn't eat. Thank you very much

**Recommended for Wuyuan Essence Play** Wuyuan is known as "the most beautiful countryside in China", with a sea of rape flowers in spring and mountains everywhere, and the autumn sun and autumn are picturesque with red maple. Must-check in attractions: 1. **Guling**: Terraces and flowers in the autumn wonders, 3-4 Moon rape flowers are covered with mountains and wild, white walls and tiles are decorated with colorful sun, like "terrace clouds". 2.**Jiangling**: The observation deck overlooks 10,000 mu of golden terraces, and the morning mist is like a fairyland. The April flowering period is the best. 3. **Rainbow Bridge**: The remains of the covered bridge in the Song Dynasty, the 140-meter bridge reflects the clear water, you can step on the stone pier to cross the river, feel the 800-year-old charm. 4.**Shicheng**: Autumn is limited! When the maple leaves are red (November), the smoke and morning mist and Huizhou houses form the ink painting.
The autumn drying in Wuyuan, Jiangxi is still worth a visit. This time I went there a little late because it had rained before and a lot of autumn leaves had fallen, but it was still quite beautiful, full of autumn flavor and very distinctive.

Likeng Scenic Area is not big, Huizhou architecture ancient town, the commercialization inside is more serious. There are no big attractions, and it will end in more than an hour after a walk. The house is more characteristic, but there are many similar buildings around, which is easy to aesthetic fatigue. Overall it doesn't mean much.
The scenery is very good, you can take pictures at will, suitable for hiking! The supermarket in the scenic area is not expensive, the shopkeepers are also very friendly, the small bridges and flowing water are suitable for taking pictures and checking in!

If you go east from Nanchang to Zhejiang, you will pass by. I didn't think of this road when I took it the year before last. At that time, the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway was being expanded, and it was the peak of the Spring Festival return trip. It may also be that Guifeng was not famous enough, so I didn't think of visiting Guifeng.
I had a few days of annual leave at the end of last year, and I went to Wuyi Mountain in Shangrao. I climbed two famous mountains with Danxia landforms, and I felt good. You need to climb mountains in Guifeng, which is basically a step road. Climbing high and looking far, your mind is open, and the scenery is still good. If you are old or afraid of being tired, you can only see the scenery at the foot of the mountain, then I advise you not to spend the ticket money. Objectively speaking, the ticket for the 5A scenic spot is only 60 yuan, which is really worth it.
By the way, Guifeng belongs to Yiyang County. If you plan to go south to Wuyi Mountain next, it is recommended to choose to live in Qianshan County. Although you have to run 20 kilometers more, it is on the way (going north to Yiyang County is equivalent to going back), and secondly, Qianshan County feels better in terms of urban appearance. There is also a Hekou Ancient Town there, which is worth visiting.
I went to Guifeng with my friends during the summer vacation. Although Guifeng is not well-known, it exceeded our expectations. There are many Danxia landforms such as peaks, stone pillars, isolated peaks, stone walls, and lakes. It is also very photogenic and worth visiting.

Shangrao Lingshan is famous for its unique circular granite peak forest wonders and is known as the natural mountain bonsai that "dominates the world". Its core scenic area has 72 peaks competing for beauty, with strange shapes like giant dragons. The high-altitude plank road is like an "air gallery" from which you can overlook the magnificent sea of clouds and rugged rocks. The glass plank road is thrilling, and the Taoist Shiren Temple has a profound heritage. The scenic area integrates majestic peaks, strange rocks, sea of clouds, and Taoist culture. The cable car directly reduces the pressure of climbing. It is a boutique mountain scenic area in northeast Jiangxi with both geological wonders and cultural heritage.

Parking at Jiangwan Scenic Area, park at the south gate P3 parking lot, don't stop at the visitor center, the visitor center will take more than 800 meters. Jiangwan is said to be the ancestor of Jiang's leaders here. The entrance is the magnificent Xiaojiang Temple. The scenic area is relatively large, and there are more businesses near the entrance. Many of them are residential houses. There are more small attractions, celebrity residences, and Wuyuan Folk Museum. It is worth seeing. I feel that the content is much richer than the Likeng scenic spot.
This is the off-season. The tourist center feels a bit far from the scenic area. You have to take a car. The car is quite useless. The scenic area is a bit like some large scenic areas, but it is unnecessary for such a small attraction. The scenery of the scenic area is good. After all, it is the ancestral home of General Secretary Jiang. The decoration is very beautiful and worth seeing, especially the exquisite old Jiangxi houses in Jiangwan. They are very characteristic and cost-effective.
