The main scenic area of ​​Lushan West Sea is a national 5A scenic area. I never thought that there is such a treasure trove of scenery in Jiangxi! To enter the scenic area, you have to take a boat to the island. We entered from the "Yunju Island Pier" and exited from the "Mengshengshan Pier" without going back. There are nearly 8,000 registered islands of all sizes in the main scenic area of ​​Lushan West Sea. We mainly visited four islands and one was an attached island. The first island we visited was Yunju Island, and it seemed like there wasn't much scenery to see. We crossed the Magpie Bridge to reach Goddess Island. If you want to save effort, you can take a single zipline from Yunju Island to Goddess Island, which costs 50 yuan. Next, we went to Ruoxi Island via the Jiukong Bridge. There was artificial fog on the Jiukong Bridge, so the road would be a bit slippery if it rained. Finally, we passed the "Mountain and Sea Bridge" and arrived at the island we most wanted to see, [Star of the West Sea]. On the island, there is China's largest glass sightseeing tower, 99 meters high. Take the elevator to the second floor, which is the only 720° panoramic aerial lake viewing cafe in the country. If you have time, it is also nice to drink coffee and enjoy the view. The third floor is the glass observation deck. Standing on the glass platform, you can overlook the entire West Sea, with lakes and mountains in sight. No matter how you take pictures, they are all blockbusters! There are also photographers who make business out of aerial photography, combining this spectacular scenery with tourists! In general, the main scenic area of ​​Lushan West Sea is a scenic area formed by islands of various sizes, and the scenery is very good!

🏞️ There are more than 8,000 islands scattered in the waters of Lushan West Sea Big and small, like stars dotted on blue satin It is so beautiful that it makes people feel relaxed and happy. It is simply the most healing picture of nature! 💧 Every island is a pearl on the blue waves Connected together, it's like a chain of treasures lost in the world The floating bridge is leisurely and you can stroll along it with beautiful scenery at every step. 🚤 Jump on a boat and ride the waves At that moment, going to sea is no longer a dream, but joy and freedom within reach! 🌊 With the sea breeze blowing and the sunshine shining, you can't help but sigh: "Why didn't I discover this paradise a few years earlier!" 🚢 There are two docks in Lushan West Sea, but if you want to experience the lake and island style, you have to start from Sima Tourist Wharf! 🎫 Tickets and Fees 💰 It only costs 150 to go to the island + boat ticket, and 95 to cruise the lake alone.

You need to take a boat to get there. The earliest one is at 8:20 ⭕Route arrangement: Route A: Yunju Island - Goddess Island (with restaurant) - Ruoxi Island - West Sea Star (with sky cafe) - Canghai Island - Sangtian Island - Fishing Village Islands (with restaurant), Route B is the opposite route A route departure time: 9:20, 11:20, 13:20, 15:00 Departure time for route B: 8:20, 10:20, 12:20, 14:20 🌿Must-visit attractions in Xihai Go to the left on the island and you will find many natural landscapes, such as Yunju Tower, Xihai Pavilion, and Lotus Waterside Pavilion. The Yunju Tower on the island is especially great for taking photos. You must check it out. Goddess Island is famous for its mysterious legends and beautiful natural scenery. There are Goddess Square⛲, Goddess Restaurant, Buzou Pavilion, Jingxin Tower, Sea Viewing Platform, Aerial Glass Plank Road and other attractions to visit on the island. This is a more interesting place in the West Sea of ​​Mount Lushan. When you climb up the Golden Dragon Bridge, you can see the same beautiful wooden house as Spirited Away. You can also go to the Cute Pet Park and have close contact with the animals. There are peacocks, birds, monkeys, and everything else.

There are two piers to choose from at Lushan West Sea: Sima Pier and Mengshengshan Pier (I chose Sima Pier). There is a parking lot there (10 yuan/day) and free parking on the roadside outside. You can take the ferry from the pier you choose to depart from. 🛳️Coming back, the two piers are quite far apart. When I went there, I got free admission🎫. I bought the boat ticket at the pier for ¥65/person (children under 1.2 meters are free). I took the 10:20 boat to the island. There are two boat routes: Route A: (Sima Wharf) Yunju Island - Mingzhu Island - Sangtian Island - Fishing Village Islands. Route B: (Mengsheng Pier) Fishing Village Islands - Sangtian Island - West Sea Star - Yunju Island Heavy! ️We won’t go to the Fishing Village Islands after 2pm. The boat driver said it would take 40 minutes to sail. So we didn’t go there today. I heard it’s not very fun there. Each island is connected by a bridge. Keep going forward and don't go back. Each island has its own unique scenery, which is particularly beautiful. 1️⃣ Yunju Island: Go to the left after going up the island! Go left! Don't go to the tourist route on the right. There is a better-looking beach 100 meters to the left. I took a lot of photos there. There is a tower next to it. Walk towards the tower to quickly reach the next island! It takes 50 meters to take the cable car directly to Goddess Island. 2️⃣Goddess Island: Look at the map before going to the island, and choose to go up the stairs or walk gently to a short glass plank road. You can take some photos here. Today is the weekend and there are many people, so I didn’t take any photos. There is a square and a restaurant on the island. 3️⃣ Ruoxi Island: There is a double dragon bridge where you can take a lot of photos. Ruoxi Island has a cute pet park, which is popular with children. There are many small animals in it, including a peacock garden, squirrels, and you can also feed alpacas and parrots, watch monkey cart performances, etc. 4️⃣ West Sea Star: It is an observation tower and requires an additional fee, so I didn’t go up. When you reach West Sea Star and cannot walk any more, you can return by boat. Please pay attention to the transfer terminal and the return terminal. 5️⃣ Pearl Island: This island has extra charges for motorboats and the like, so you don’t have to go if you don’t want to spend money. ‼ ️‼ ️The most beautiful floating bridge is specially recommended: It connects Mingzhu Island and Canghai Island. It is very photogenic to take pictures here. 6️⃣Canghai Island: There was a very boring performance. When I first arrived, they were performing Sichuan Opera face-changing. At the end, it was recommended to buy small items. 7️⃣Sangtian Island: Displays some farming items. This is where I ended my trip for today, which took five hours. I then took a boat back home. ‼ ️When you come here, you must find good weather. It is very beautiful to take pictures and it is especially easy to produce them. But be careful about sun protection. ‼ ️ Bring enough snacks and water, climbing is very tiring. Things are more expensive on the island.

There is a quiet and mysterious place hidden in the West Sea of Lushan in Jiangxi—Bamboo Wilderness Homestay.
