kiki2819:“It is one of the more interesting museums in Nanchang. It is a little far from Nanchang, but it is very convenient to drive there. I went there on the first day of the Lunar New Year. There were very few people. The experience was great. It was cool to see the gold.”
Stuivertje:“Nice park to hike. You can also use the bus to visits the different places. I stayed for 2 nights on the mountain. That is enough time to walk everything. If you use the bus, 1 night is fine”

sky~li:“This is the world's largest golden statue of Maitreya Buddha, two meters taller than the Statue of Liberty, and 30 kilometers of gold were poured into its body. A straight staircase leads directly to the statue. Worshippers should walk on the right side, where the wooden flooring makes it easy to bow. Tourists should walk on the left side, where the terrazzo flooring is tiled. This scenic area is free, built with donations from believers from around the world. However, entry is restricted after 5:30 PM, so it's recommended to visit early in the morning.”

M58***48:“Check in at the Haihunhou Museum, which is rich in cultural relics, including gold cakes, Five Emperors' coins, unicorn gold, and horse hoof gold. I feel that they are so rich [grin] Today I was lucky enough to meet Teacher Wan, who has solid professional knowledge, detailed, patient and passionate explanations, and lively and interesting language. Through Teacher Wan's wonderful explanations, she led us to understand the legendary life of Liu He, the first generation of Haihunhou, and feel the charm of Haihunhou culture. You must come to Haihunhou, it's worth the trip [strong][strong] If you plan to visit, I strongly recommend Teacher Wan.”
M69***49:“The environment of Tianmu Hot Spring is really great, and the service attitude is very thoughtful. Every time I come here, I feel as comfortable as coming home. I have been there 3 times, and I want to bring my baby to experience it next time. The transportation here is also super convenient, which is great!”
sky~li:“I've known about Lushan Waterfall since childhood, as I recall reading about it in the works of Tang Dynasty poets. This is where it's located. The sun shines on the incense burner, creating purple smoke. From afar, I see the waterfall hanging over the river, plunging three thousand feet, like the Milky Way falling from the sky. Only when I visit the scenic area can I truly empathize with the tranquility of Li Bai's time. The area is shady and quiet, and even on a hot day, it's not too hot. However, the line for the cable car up the mountain is long, as it's too small to accommodate two people at a time. From the cable car, you can view Lushan Waterfall, making the climb much easier. It's cool on the mountain, so you can enjoy the cool breeze there before visiting the source of the waterfall and playing in the stream.”
M39***74:“Yongwu Highway is a unique scenic highway on the shore of Poyang Lake in Jiangxi Province, China. It connects Yongxiu County and the thousand-year-old town of Wucheng. The seasonal rise in the water level of Poyang Lake forms the spectacle of a "water highway". During the flood season from June to August every year, the lake water overflows the road surface. When vehicles are driving, it is like sailing on the water. The splashing water and the lake and sky form a cartoon-like dream scene. It is known as "China's most beautiful water highway"12. The highway passes through the Poyang Lake Migratory Bird Reserve, and a natural landscape of wetland grasslands and egrets flying can be seen on both sides45. However, you need to pay attention to the risk of schistosomiasis, and the road will be closed when the water level is too high.”
Opening hours: 08:00-18:00 (admission ends at 15:00)
M32***78:“You can visit the lakes and mountains nearby, and you can also check in the most beautiful sunset at the Strange Mountain Pier. You can also visit the old town. There is a family homestay next to it, which is also very nice.”
Open today at 14:00-23:00 (admission ends at 22:30)
M52***93:“There are three major hot springs in China, Huaqing Hot Spring in Lintong, Shaanxi, Maoming in Guangdong, and Lushan Hot Spring in Jiangxi. Especially Lushan Hot Spring, with its unique geographical location in the deep mountains and jungles, is rich in a variety of minerals that are beneficial to the human body. With Chinese medicine conditioning, soaking in the wonderful hot spring water and breathing the free oxygen ions of the natural oxygen bar, it would be a lie to say that you don’t want to come again.”

winlong:“Gongqingcheng is also a place that loves spicy food, so there are many Hunan restaurants here, and Luxiang Renjia is one of them. I heard that it was very popular before, and you had to queue up to eat. Now it's good, you can eat at any time, which may be affected by the epidemic. The food is served very quickly, the taste is not bad, and the taste is good in all aspects! As a Hunan dish in Jiangxi, it is still good!”
M23***64:“The environment is good, the table is cleaned up in a timely manner, and the hygiene is relatively clean. The service is OK and quite enthusiastic. You can use WeChat and Alipay, which is quite convenient. We bought some French pizza and blueberry cookies, which tasted good.”
288***30:“There are many types of buffet, and the steak is very tender. The price is also quite affordable, so we spent 150 yuan. It happened to be a trip to the Communist Youth League. I will come again next time I have the chance. I like this recommendation.”
winlong:“Gongqingcheng is much more beautiful now, and there are many delicious foods. The Huang Chujiang restaurant I came across by chance is quite good (*๓´╰╯`๓)♡The interior decoration is quite good and relatively clean. The food is delicious, all of which are Jiangxi specialties. Ask them to be less spicy, and the food is pretty good. The taste is very good, and the dining environment is also good. It is worth recommending!”

This restaurant not only has a good environment, good service, and delicious dishes, but also does its best to help guests, providing extra services to help find old footprints and old friends, and fulfilling the guests' wish to find the old times. Thank you very much! 👍👍”
致一113:“There are many varieties, good service, good taste and affordable prices. It's really hot and I don't have much appetite, let alone buying vegetables and cooking, so Huang Shang Huang is a good choice, isn't it?”
ghhfhyh:“A restaurant with a very unique decoration and a very quiet environment. The service is excellent, warm and thoughtful. The dishes are very delicious. We ordered the roasted stinky mandarin fish, dry pot duck head, and cross-bridge spareribs.”
