Shanghai—Chizhou—Tongling—Shaoxing (Road Trip)

Shanghai—Chizhou—Tongling—Shaoxing (Road Trip)

Day 1: We left Shanghai around 6:00 a.m. to avoid the morning rush hour and arrived at Jiuhua Tianchi in Chizhou around noon. The scenic area wasn't crowded. After entering the main gate, we came to a square. After passing through a short street connected to the square, we found the sightseeing bus stop. We opted for the sightseeing bus, which took us to a designated location in a few minutes. Not far from where we got off, there was a small waterfall by the road. A short walk up the slope brought us to a flight of steps. There was an elevator next to the steps, but we chose to walk up the dozens of steps. Perhaps due to recent heavy rain, we saw many colorful geckos. After the steps, we came to a large expanse of water—Jiuhua Tianchi. We took a ferry to a small island across the lake to watch a performance. On the way back, we walked down the mountain path instead of taking the bus. There were several scenic spots along the way, including a cave formed by stacked giant rocks, which was quite interesting. Near the entrance to the scenic area, there was a place for rafting, which we decided to try. We stayed overnight in Chizhou. After dinner, we drove to Pingtian Lake, which was not far from the hotel. Pingtian Lake is known as Anhui's own "Sky Mirror". We drove slowly along Pinghu Road in the evening, enjoying the scenery outside... Day 2: Jiuhua Mountain. Jiuhua Mountain is divided into the front mountain core scenic area, the back mountain Tiantai scenic area, and the Huatai scenic area. Jiuhua Mountain tickets are valid for two days. Because we had only planned for one day, we didn't go to the Huatai scenic area, which is mainly for viewing scenery. We first went to the core scenic area of the front mountain and visited the Meat Body Hall, Dizang Temple, etc. We took the scenic bus from Huxingshan Station to the Tiantai scenic area in the back mountain. On the way, we even saw a monkey by the roadside. We took a cable car up to the Tiantai scenic area and then continued to climb to Tiantai Temple. We took the cable car back down to the station and returned by the same route. Day 3: We first went to Penglai Fairy Cave, about a half-hour drive from Chizhou. It was cool inside the cave, but we didn't need extra clothing. The main attractions included more than 10 spots, such as the Reception Hall, the Sea Exploration Corridor, the East China Sea Dragon Palace, the Tongming Palace, the Enchanted Palace, the Jade Cicada Palace, the Milky Way Corridor, the Yaochi Pool, the South China Sea, the Chaoyin Hall, and the Farewell Hall. Like other cave scenic areas, there were staff photographers at the best viewing points. We couldn't resist taking some photos, which weren't too expensive. After leaving the cave, we took a manually controlled slide down the mountain, which was quite fun as it picked up speed. After leaving Penglai Fairy Cave, we drove to Shitai Guniujiang, mainly to see the mountains and rivers. We didn't go too deep, but we did some hiking to exercise. Not far from the entrance to the scenic area, there was a small river where many children were fishing. We stayed at the Tongling Yuanyi Boutique Hotel. The hotel room was a duplex, relatively new, and we had a good stay. Day 4: We packed up in the morning and set off for the Twelve Scenic Spots of Recalling Jiangnan. It took more than 20 minutes to get there from the hotel. We arrived around 9:00 a.m., and parking was already getting tight. We entered the scenic area and walked up the mountain along the road. There was a scenic spot every short distance along the way, where we could take photos. There were also many lanterns and light strings for decoration. Because we walked slowly, it took us more than two hours to go up and down. Perhaps due to the many artificial elements, the scenery felt average. It might look better at night when the lights are on. We had lunch at a snack street near the scenic area. We had to exchange for copper coins to buy food. Overall, there weren't many varieties of food, and the prices were a bit high. In my opinion, using copper coins was just a gimmick. There was also a real estate sales center in the snack street. It turned out that commercial housing was also being built next to the scenic area. After lunch, we drove to Liqiao Water Town. The water town featured Huizhou-style architecture. We enjoyed the "Da Tie Hua" (iron flower) performance in the evening. There were also many kinds of snacks, and we had dinner there. Day 5: We drove to East Lake in Shaoxing, Zhejiang. We hadn't been there for several years. There weren't many changes. It was still a familiar place with familiar Wupeng boats. After leaving, we headed back to Shanghai.

The ecological conditions in Huangyan Canyon and its surrounding areas are exceptionally favorable. Not only are there peaks like Xianrenjian, Guanyinjian, and Shanshanjian, all over 1000 meters above sea level, but there is also a preservation of more than 20,000 acres of dense, pristine natural forests.

Nothing Beats Nature

"Drunk Mountain". No idea where it gets its name. But it made me fall drunk of its natural beauty. The scenery is pleasant, especially the waterfall view is very spectacular. The mountain is not high. So it's suitable for everyone even for children. A whole day trip is just right, there are lots to play, it was just unfortunate we went on a rainy day. After climbing the mountain, you can choose to take a sightseeing bus on your way back, it was so quick, the driver drove it like a flash, we were laughing all the way. It was exciting. #naturalwonders #urbanexplorer #tigeryear2022 #wintergetaway #awesomepic

Drifting on the Qiupu River | A peaceful journey away from the hustle and bustle of the city

Drifting on the Qiupu River | A peaceful journey away from the hustle and bustle of the city

Drifting on the Qiupu River is located in Shitai County, Chizhou City, Anhui Province, and is a beautiful river. The Qiupu River originates from the deep mountains of southern Anhui, with clear water like autumn and picturesque scenery on both sides. The famous Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai visited Qiupu several times, leaving behind the popular 'Seventeen Poems of Qiupu River', which is a true portrayal of the beauty of the Qiupu River. The most distinctive part of the Qiupu River drift is the ancient trees on both sides of the river, the dangerous beaches and rapid waters. The Shuiche Ridge, Camel Bird Bay, and Fish Beam Dam in Li Bai's pen are all reproduced. Tourists can follow the poet's footsteps by drifting on bamboo rafts and experience the charm of Tang poetry. The rafting is 15 kilometers long, passing through 14 dangerous beaches, with variously shaped reefs. Riding a raft can play in the water and surf passionately. Tourists entering the scenic area can push the stone mill on the river bank, step on the water wheel, taste the bamboo tube rice of Qiupu fishermen in the water restaurant, self-bake on the beach, play in the water and catch fish in the river bay, and hunt with a bow in the ancient willow forest. It is a good place for drifting and leisure. Qiupu River Drifting is a comprehensive tourism enterprise integrating scenic spot development, hotel reception, and travel agency services. The scenic spots and attractions developed by the company are all distributed in the Qiupu River basin.
