Tianmu Lake Scenic Area
South Hill Bamboo Sea and Yushui Hot Spring Scenic Area
Guest User: The service was pretty good, and the surrounding scenery was nice too. The hotel breakfast was decent, and enjoying the hot springs in the evening was quite a treat.
No. 8 Huanhu East Road, Tianmu Lake
From RUB 5,614
Guest User: The shuttle bus was very convenient to the door of the lakeside tree house. The loft bed for parents and children and the parent-child handicrafts were very enjoyable for the children. It was very comfortable to take a bath in the bathtub on the terrace at night. The hotel's buffet breakfast and dinner tasted very appetizing. The electric curtains were very ceremonial (the sound of the curtain motor was a little loud, but fortunately it was short-lived). The Tianmu Lake Scenic Area ticket was given as a gift. The scenery was great. I will stay here again when I come to Liyang in the future.
No. 1 Huanhu West Road, Tianmuhu Town
From RUB 7,961
Guest User: I have been to Tianmu Lake many times and have eaten fish head at Tianmu Lake Hotel countless times, but every time I stayed at a hotel halfway up the mountain after eating. This is my first time staying at Tianmu Lake Hotel. I booked a room half a month before the holiday and also noted that I wanted a high floor with a good view. Finally, I arranged the 5th floor facing the lake. The view is very good and I am very satisfied. The hotel is old, but the maintenance is OK. The second-floor platform is used to transform into a children's play area and a small garden, and the gym equipment is also very complete. The service in the breakfast restaurant is also very good, and everyone comes to help on their own initiative. The only thing that is not so good is the sound insulation. The sound of rinsing in the bathroom is clear in the room, and the sound in the corridor is also clearly heard.
No. 588 Yingbin Avenue, Tianmu Lake Tourist Resort
From RUB 5,566
Guest User: 30 Degrees North Latitude is the most satisfactory accommodation for this New Year's Day holiday. We chose a mid-week stay on a weekday, and now Liyang is in the off-season, so we are the only guest. It is still pet-friendly, and the furry children can play without restraint. The environment is very warm and warm. Under the sunshine of the day, every corner of the homestay has its own flavor. The coconut trees in the small garden have some tropical style, and they are also covered with a thin layer of snow in the winter morning. Here you can lazily bask in the sun, watch TV, and relax. It is also 5 minutes away from Nanshan Bamboo Sea and Yushui Hot Spring. Very convenient~ Next time I hope to bring three or five friends to stay for a few days~

ericleehwa: There was a surprise when I stayed at Kaiyuan for the first time. When I checked in, the front desk thoughtfully upgraded us to the duplex parent-child room on the 3rd floor of the villa for free. Both adults and children were very satisfied. The children had a lot of fun in the parent-child room upstairs. After the rain, we took a walk in the hotel's 100-acre tea garden and the sparkling Swan Lake. An unexpected surprise happened again. Three ducklings chased us and played all the way. The children couldn't bear to part with them and clamored to take them home. Before leaving, the children reluctantly said they wanted to stay for another day, but they had to go to school and could only come next time!

Guest User: I went to Liyang last weekend. And I stayed at the hotel with my family. I made a reservation for including Package. The hotel was too convenient to go to 南山竹海. It was too close to go. When I arrived at the hotel, I received a warm welcome. I was going to just go 南山竹海. But when we came back to the hotel, it rained outside so I decided to go to the hot spring. It was really nice. Because I thought it would be small, but it was really nice to have a big place and facilities. I don't remember person in charge what name was. But I really appreciate their kindness and plus there was one guy who was really passionate to take pictures. Their picture quality was really good.

My favorite hidden gem of a city so far~
🌿 In Liyang, I found a city that blends architecture and nature perfectly—a place I won't soon forget. The most breathtaking feature is the Liyang Museum. Its unique cave-like dome features layered, wood-grain curved surfaces that converge upward to form a massive circular skylight. Standing on the steps and looking up, the blue sky and white clouds pour through the circular opening, making it feel like you've stepped into a real-life fantasy world. As you ascend, you're flanked by gentle, grass-covered slopes and lush green bamboo. Walking deeper along the stairs, the curved architecture envelops the path, creating a strong sense of depth and dimension. A low-angle shot maximizes this depth. No filters are needed—every photo is social media gold. The exhibition halls inside are quiet and elegant, perfect for taking your time to explore Liyang's history and learn about the local culture. The museum's outdoor public area is free to access. Even if you don't go inside, exploring the exterior architecture alone makes the trip worthwhile. After visiting the museum, you can continue to explore more of Liyang. With bamboo forests, reservoirs, and mountain guesthouses scattered nearby, the city has a slow, relaxed pace without the crowds—perfect for a weekend getaway to escape the city and unwind. 📝 Practical travel tips 📍 Address: Liyang Museum, Changzhou, Jiangsu 🚗 Transportation: If driving, navigate to Liyang Museum; free parking is available. If arriving by high-speed rail, it's a short taxi ride from Liyang Station. 🎫 Tickets: The exterior grounds are free. Entry to the museum requires a reservation with your ID. ⏰ Duration: 1–2 hours. We recommend visiting in the afternoon when the lighting is perfect for photos. 👗 Outfit: Simple, casual, light-colored clothing pairs well with the wooden architecture and lush greenery. 💡 Photography tips 1. The main staircase is the best spot for low-angle shots. It captures the entire circular dome and the sky in one frame for the best results. 2. It's best to visit on a sunny day. Clouds drifting above the opening add a more atmospheric touch to your photos. 3. Crowds increase during holidays, so try to visit off-peak to avoid the crowds and get cleaner shots. If you're looking for a getaway in the Yangtze River Delta and are tired of the same old destinations, this hidden gem of a city, Liyang, is truly worth a trip.
5 chill family-friendly getaways within 1.5 hours of the Yangtze River Delta
The best photos of kids on trips aren't posed; they're the moments when the child is truly immersed in play. So, when choosing a destination, think backward: where can the child forget about the camera? These 5 spots are all within a 1.5-hour trip, with ready-made photo ops—starting with Tianmu Lake. 1 | Tianmu Lake Tourist Resort (Liyang) | 4 photo spots, snap away in order The first spot is the lakeshore in front of the Shanshui Garden pier. When the boat docks at Longxing Island, the island trail stretches along the waterline. When the side light hits, it creates a bright ribbon on the lake. Have your child stand at a corner of the trail with the water in the background, and you'll get a full-face shot without needing to direct them. The second spot is inside the ground cable car at Nanshan Bamboo Sea. There are 35,000 acres of bamboo here. The car glides deep into the forest, brushing against the treetops, and when it turns, the bamboo tips press against the glass—snap a photo through the window for a completely green frame, capturing your child's profile against the glass. Along the stream-tracing path, there's a 7.77-meter-tall "Fortune Deer" that's visible from far away and is the most photogenic spot in this area. The solid copper "God of Longevity" statue at Longevity Square is draped in red this year, with a scarf stretching a full 199 meters. Stand back and snap the shutter to frame the entire red scarf. The third spot is at the entrance to Jiming Village. The monument marking the intersection of three provinces is right at your feet. Have your child stand with one foot on the monument for a unique photo you can't get anywhere else. The fourth spot is at Wuyue No. 1 Peak, up the aerial cable car. When the clouds lower in the evening, the mountain ridges recede into the distance layer by layer. A backlit silhouette shot is all you need. After taking photos, take care of food and lodging: look for the silver carp in the clay pot fish head soup—the broth should be white when served. Eat the black rice with white sugar, and try the sliced braised liver rolls with rice. In the evening, head to Yushui Hot Spring: 60 pools are scattered throughout the mountains, and on weekends, they stay open until 10:00 PM. The steam rising from the pools against the backdrop of bamboo shadows makes for the last great photo of the day. Of the Shanghai-Nanjing-Hangzhou triangle, the trip from Nanjing is the fastest, taking about 26 minutes to reach Liyang Station, followed by a 15-minute drive. 2 | Hangzhou Safari Park (Hangzhou, Zhejiang) | Photographing animals from the small train The easiest way to see the park is the free forest train. Animals in the drive-through area walk in groups right by the train, and the moment your child looks out through the railing is the best time to snap a photo. The park is flat, so strollers are easy to use. You can also drive your own car into the park for a different perspective. It takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes from Shanghai Hongqiao to Fuyang Station, which is over 20 kilometers away. There is a free shuttle from the Wild Animal Park East Station on Metro Line 6. Admission is free for children under 1.2 meters, but reservations are required during peak season. 3 | Taizhou Qin Lake National Wetland Park (Taizhou, Jiangsu) | Reeds and boats on the water Autumn and winter are the seasons for migratory birds and reeds at Qin Lake. Take a large boat into the waterways; the reed flowers on both sides are white, making for great backlit silhouettes. After getting off the boat, there's a Milu deer park. When your child feeds the deer, you can capture their hand and the deer's antlers in the same frame. There are no steps in the park, so strollers are fine, and sightseeing cars are available. The boats have a last departure time, so don't plan new activities after 3:30 PM. It takes 1 hour and 54 minutes from Shanghai to Jiangyan, followed by a 20-minute taxi ride. 4 | Nantong Langshan (Nantong, Jiangsu) | The river view from the mountaintop The mountain isn't high—106 meters—and there's a cable car, though walking up is also easy. Standing at the top and looking south, the Yangtze River unfolds before you. The golden river surface at sunset makes for the most expansive photo of the trip. The steps from the foot to the top of the mountain are gentle, but strollers aren't very convenient, so use a baby carrier for small children. October is peak season for tickets, and prices drop in November when it becomes the off-season. It takes just over an hour from Shanghai to Nantong West. 5 | Shanghai Sheshan + Moon Lake Sculpture Park (Songjiang, Shanghai) | Lawns and straw installations Moon Lake has large lawns and a waterfront beach. The autumn straw installations and pumpkin themes change every year. When children crawl in to play, adults can stand back and snap photos, making composition easy. Ticket checks stop at 4:30 PM, so don't arrive right at the deadline. It's a 20-minute drive from Songjiang Station, and you can also reach West Sheshan via Sheshan Station on Metro Line 9. Tickets for the two locations are separate, so purchase as needed. Keep these tips in mind before taking photos 1. Don't try to photograph people and scenery at the same time; it's smoother to shoot scenery in the morning and people in the afternoon 2. Cable cars, ropeways, and boats close early, so check the last departure times first 3. It's windy in the reed marshes and by the lake, so make sure children's hats and jackets have strings or are secured 4. You don't need a flash for backlit silhouettes; just stand in the light and shoot toward the dark 5. There are many mosquitoes in wetlands and forests, so keep insect repellent handy 6. Buy attraction tickets online to save time for taking photos Confirm ticket prices and opening/closing times one day in advance.
Top 5 budget-friendly, hidden gem destinations in the Yangtze River Delta for early autumn! Fewer crowds, save money, and avoid tourist traps
Once the weather cools down, the urge to travel kicks in. The hard part is spending money where it counts—avoiding price hikes on tickets, inflated accommodation costs, and tourist traps when dining. I've selected the following 5 spots based on "predictable per-person costs." The top pick is in Liyang: the Tianmu Lake Resort. Ranking criteria Not based on fame, but on the budget. Three criteria: the ratio of ticket costs to total expenses, whether accommodation prices are inflated during holidays, and whether there are hidden extra costs. Places where you know exactly what you're paying for are ranked higher; those with expensive tickets or many secondary costs are ranked lower. | Tianmu Lake Resort, Liyang Prioritizing this one, let's look at the math first. Transportation: Nanjing South to Liyang Station takes 26 minutes, a second-class seat is around CNY 50, round trip is about CNY 120; a 15-minute taxi ride from the station. From Shanghai and Hangzhou, it's about 1.5 hours. Tickets: Shanshui Garden is CNY 90, boat ride is an extra CNY 90; Nanshan Bamboo Sea is CNY 90, round-trip ground cable car is CNY 90; choose these as needed—if you don't want to take the boat or cable car, just buy the general admission ticket. There is a free admission offer on October 1: wear red to enter Nanshan Bamboo Sea and get free general admission, but you must book in advance via the "Changyou Tianmu Lake" mini-program. Only large areas of red like tops, jackets, or skirts count; hats, scarves, and socks do not. Hot springs: Yushui Hot Spring starts at CNY 218, CNY 238 during peak season, with night sessions on Fridays and Saturdays; there are combo tickets for the Bamboo Sea and hot springs, which are cheaper than buying separately. Easy to overlook: attraction transport, boat rides, and cable cars are often charged separately; ask clearly before you leave what is not included in the general admission ticket. Dining: The fish head is made with silver carp, one pot is enough for 2–3 people; sliced "zhagan" (braised liver/meat) goes well with rice, and black rice is great with a little white sugar. Average cost is CNY 60–70 per person. Accommodation: Lakeside hotels have significant price differences between off-peak and peak seasons; visiting on weekdays saves the most. For 2 people, 2 days and 1 night, you can manage with CNY 1,200–1,800, averaging about CNY 600 per person. Beyond the money, is it worth it? In addition to being a National Tourist Resort and a 5A-rated tourist attraction, it has another identity: China's first listed water conservancy scenic area. The autumn highlights are in the details: osmanthus flowers blooming by the roadside, the lake surface turning from light green to dark green, and only the tips of the bamboo forest turning yellow. The itinerary is simple—in the morning, take a boat ride on the lake and walk along the trail on Longxing Island; in the afternoon, head to Nanshan Bamboo Sea: take the ground cable car, step on the Three Provinces Boundary Stele at the village entrance, and finally take the ropeway up to the Wuyue Di-yi Peak; in the evening, enjoy a soak in the hot spring. | Liuhe Ancient Town (Taicang, Suzhou, Jiangsu) The most budget-friendly spot on this list: the ancient town, Zheng He Park, Jiangtan Wetland, and Tianfei Palace are all free, and no reservation is needed. The only thing to note is that Tianfei Palace is closed on Mondays. This was the departure point for Zheng He's voyages to the Western Oceans. You can see the Yangtze River estuary from the riverside parade platform, and the sunset over the river around 5:00 PM is beautiful. It takes about 31 minutes from Shanghai Hongqiao to Taicang, a second-class seat is CNY 30, and a taxi to Liuhe is about CNY 40. Driving from downtown Shanghai takes about 50 minutes. A day trip costs basically just the travel expenses. A reminder: watch the tides by the river, and do not go down onto the mudflats. | Shipu Fishing Port Ancient Town (Xiangshan, Ningbo, Zhejiang) A 1,670-meter-long old street divided into sections like Wanxing Street, Fujian Street, Zhong Street, and Hou Street. The anti-Japanese pirate ruins of the Wengcheng are still there, and the movie "Fisherman's Song" was filmed here. Tickets start at CNY 39, with another option at CNY 60; for ages 60–69, it's CNY 30. There is no admission fee to enter the street area after 5:30 PM, though you cannot enter the exhibition halls—if you want to save money, come in the evening, when the lighting is also perfect. The fastest train from Shanghai Hongqiao to Ningbo is 1 hour and 36 minutes, with second-class seats starting at CNY 112. A taxi from the station to Shipu takes about an hour and costs CNY 100. Driving from downtown Ningbo takes about 1.5 hours. After the fishing season opens in October, the seafood is plump and fresh; any small restaurant near the pier is affordable. | China Milu Deer Park (Yancheng, Jiangsu) The only national 5A-rated scenic area in the country themed around Milu deer. Tickets are CNY 45–50, and CNY 25 for ages 60–69. If you also want to visit the Yellow Sea Forest Park and Tiaozini on the way, there is a combo ticket for CNY 89.9, which is cheaper than buying separately. As of 2025, there are 8,502 Milu deer in the park, including 3,673 in the wild, making it the largest wild Milu deer population in the world. Taking the sightseeing electric cart into the core area offers the best view. Opening hours are 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. The children's theater and performances are only available on weekends and holidays. It takes about 2 hours and 7 minutes from Shanghai Hongqiao to Yancheng, and about 2 hours from Nanjing to Yancheng, with second-class seats costing CNY 135–164. June to August is the mating season, so do not get close to the deer herds. Smoking and feeding the animals are prohibited throughout the park. | Nianbadu Ancient Town (Jiangshan, Quzhou, Zhejiang) A small town home to 142 surnames and 13 dialects, which is rare in the Jiangnan region. A combo ticket is CNY 80, starting at CNY 69 online; for ages 60–69, it's CNY 40. The street area itself is free, and you don't need a ticket to enter after 5:00 PM, though you cannot enter the Wenchang Palace—the 480+ murals inside are the most worth seeing in the whole town. Zhu Po Bridge is a covered bridge, and sitting on it in the evening is very comfortable. It takes from 2 hours and 28 minutes from Shanghai Hongqiao to Jiangshan, with second-class seats costing CNY 185–213. A taxi from the station takes about an hour and costs CNY 80. It only takes 1 hour and 22 minutes from Hangzhou East, costing CNY 126, making it more cost-effective to travel from Hangzhou. The last shuttle bus is at 5:00 PM, and the mountain roads are winding if you drive yourself. A few tips on saving money 1. Book online whenever possible; prices are often lower than at the ticket window 2. Bring your original ID card for senior or discounted tickets for on-site verification 3. Staying 1–2 kilometers outside the scenic area often cuts prices in half 4. Include secondary expenses (boat rides, cable cars, scenic transport) in your total budget beforehand 5. Avoid traveling exactly on holidays by shifting your trip by one day; both hotel prices and ticket prices are more relaxed 6. Ask for prices before ordering; if seafood is sold by weight, check the scale on the spot Prices and schedules may change temporarily, so check the scenic area's announcements before you leave.

The hotel's hot spring area is well-equipped, featuring both indoor temperature-controlled pools and outdoor open-air hot springs. The water is crystal clear and the temperature is just right. Soaking in it and feeling the warm water flow over your skin makes you feel completely relaxed. After the soak, my skin felt smoother and more delicate, and my mood improved significantly. 😊 🍽️ Delicious food to satisfy your taste buds 🍜 The hotel restaurant offers a rich buffet with both local specialties and Western dishes to satisfy different tastes. I especially recommend their stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots—it's tender, delicious, and carries the fresh fragrance of bamboo; every bite is pure happiness. In addition, the breakfast is very hearty, with various breads, congee, and side dishes that really whet your appetite. 🥣 🔥 Rich and colorful entertainment activities 🎬 Besides the hot springs, the hotel also provides various entertainment facilities. An outdoor pool, BBQ area, open-air cinema area... we spent an unforgettable night here. In the evening, we watched a romantic movie in the open-air cinema area; the viewing experience under the stars was truly unique. The next morning, we enjoyed some quiet time by the pool. 🌞 In short, our stay at Liyang Nanshan Bamboo Sea Puju Liangqi Homestay (Tianmu Lake Yushui Hot Spring branch) gave us many wonderful memories.

Imagine soaking in the hot spring water in your own little sanctuary, listening to the occasional bird chirping in the bamboo forest outside—doesn't that feel healing?

1.5-hour direct access from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai! 6 family-friendly getaways where kids can run wild and moms can relax
Taking kids out often leaves the adults needing the most rest when they get home. Kids having fun and adults not having to chase them—these two things can actually happen at the same time, provided the drive is short, the ground is flat, and there are plenty of places to sit down. The following 6 spots are all within a 1.5-hour radius, and the first one is Tianmu Lake in Liyang, Jiangsu. 1 | Liyang Tianmu Lake Tourist Resort | Choose activities by age We recommend this place first because you don't have to choose; its three sections perfectly match three age groups. For the stroller years, head to Tianmu Lake Landscape Garden: take a boat from the pier into the lake, dock at Longxing Island, and enjoy the lakeside trails that hug the water. The paths are flat with few steps, making them stroller-friendly, and you can find benches to sit on after a short walk. The boat ride is also enough to keep kids quiet—staring at the ripples outside the window, they'll be peaceful for half an hour. On Longxing Island, there's a hands-on area: Duo'er's Village lets kids feed small animals, and Jimmy's Forest Classroom holds nature classes on schedule, mostly teaching about things found right there on the mountain. For the 3–6 age group, the highlight is Nanshan Bamboo Sea. The bamboo here forms a sea, covering 35,000 mu. The ground cable car slowly pushes deep into the forest canopy, and kids will likely treat it like a little train, counting bamboo along the way. Get off at the entrance to Jiming Village, where the boundary marker for Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui provinces is right at your feet. Stepping across three provinces at once is more effective than explaining geography ten times. For those over 6 who are steady on their feet, you can continue on the aerial cable car to the peak of Wuyue Di-yi Feng. The entire mountain ridge line is laid out beneath you; it's windy, so hold onto your hat. In the evening, soaking in the hot springs at the resort is perfect. Yushui Hot Springs has 60 pools, tiered up the mountain. The shallow pools have water levels that just cover a child's knees, while the higher pools are closer to the bamboo canopy. They are open until 10:00 PM on Fridays and Saturdays. You don't need to worry about food. The clay pot fish head is made with silver carp, ordered and stewed on the spot, with a milky white, non-fishy broth. Eat black rice with white sugar, and sliced braised liver with rice. The local flavors are mild, making it easy for kids to eat. Stay at a lakeside hotel, sleep in the next day, and only move your luggage once. 2 | Suzhou Amusement Land Forest World (Suzhou, Jiangsu) | A place where rain doesn't matter Its most valuable feature is the fully indoor Candy World—four floors with a carousel, small slides, and family games inside, so it doesn't matter if it's raining outside. The outdoor section is also friendly to little ones: the Grimm's train circles the park, the Lilliput area has zero-gravity facilities where climbing, crawling, and sliding have no height restrictions, and the Tundra Kingdom is an ice and snow pavilion where you can rent cotton coats. Get off at Suzhou New District Station in the direction of Fengqiao, take a taxi for just over 20 minutes, or transfer to Tram Line 1 to Yangshan South Station and walk for 5 minutes. Online adult tickets are much cheaper than on-site; there are free admission policies for those over 69 and under 1.2m, so check the ticket page for the day before entering the park. 3 | Gofun Chocolate Town (Jiashan, Jiaxing, Zhejiang) | A half-day indoor study tour It takes about 20 minutes from Shanghai Hongqiao to Jiashan South Station, and less than half an hour by taxi from the station. The little train in the town passes through flower fields, taking about 10 minutes, which is manageable for kids. You can watch the assembly line through the glass at the chocolate factory and taste a piece of freshly made chocolate for free. You need to enter before 4:00 PM for DIY activities. Non-powered facilities have no extra charge, and running around on the lawn will burn off plenty of energy. Daytime adult tickets are under CNY 100, and children under 1.2m are free. The flower fields aren't as good in autumn and winter as in spring and summer, but fortunately, its main attraction is indoors anyway. 4 | Shanghai Science and Technology Museum (Pudong, Shanghai) | An all-weather indoor backup plan Take Metro Line 2 and you're right at the museum, so you don't need to change plans for rain, cold, or wind. With 10 exhibition areas and over 400 exhibits, the interaction rate is high. The "World of 1 Meter" area is reserved specifically for ages 3–8. Nursing rooms and strollers are available. Adult tickets are CNY 45, and those over 70 or under 1.3m get free admission. Note two things: it's closed on Mondays, and tickets for weekends and holidays often sell out 7 days in advance, so grab your tickets as soon as your itinerary is set. 5 | Dongqian Lake · Hanling Old Street (Ningbo, Zhejiang) | A slow stroll with a stroller A lake much quieter than West Lake. The lakeside road is flat, and you can rent family bikes. Ride from Yinwan Village to Hanling, passing lawns where you can stop and lay out a picnic mat. Hanling Old Street has handmade craft shops where you can paint an oil-paper umbrella to take home. Freshly steamed rice buns and rice cake dumplings can be eaten while sitting by the river. There are many lakeside hotels; choose one with a children's play area so you can return to the room for a nap at noon. Take the high-speed train to Ningbo Station, then it's about a half-hour taxi ride. A day and a half is just right. 6 | Changxing Island Country Park (Chongming, Shanghai) | Free large lawns and fruit picking The entire park has no admission fee; just make a reservation to enter. You can run freely on the large lawns. The orange orchard is open for picking from late October to November. Tandem bikes are CNY 20 per hour, and there are experiences like feeding small animals and grinding rice flour, which can keep kids occupied for half a day. There is no direct high-speed train; driving or taking Metro Line 6 to Wuzhou Avenue and transferring to the Shenchong Line 4 bus is more convenient. Dining options are average, so it's recommended to bring your own water and snacks. A few reminders for traveling with kids 1. Book tickets as soon as they go on sale, and try to select adjacent seats for child and adult tickets 2. Buy all attraction tickets online to save time queuing on-site 3. Plan only one main destination per trip, as changing locations drains children's energy the most 4. It's windier in bamboo forests and by the lake than in the city, so pack a light jacket for your child 5. Don't force the itinerary during nap time; children are most efficient in the half-day after they wake up 6. It is recommended to avoid the noon peak for hot springs and indoor venues Prices and opening hours are subject to the attraction's announcements on the day; check before you go.

There's a mall downstairs, so you can grab dinner on your way out. 💡 Tips from a mom 1. High-speed rail or driving are both fine. Most spots are within a 2-hour trip, so it's not too tiring for the kids. Just pack some snacks and picture books in your suitcase 🚄 2. There's a big temperature difference between morning and evening in autumn, so bring a light jacket for the kids. It's easy to catch a cold when switching between indoor and outdoor venues 🧴 3. If you can, go on a weekday instead of the weekend. It's less crowded, you can ride popular attractions more than once, and you won't have to wait for crowds to clear to take photos 🚶♀️
A hidden rafting paradise in the mountains
A great place to enjoy bamboo in September. Stop fighting crowds at popular spots! Jiangxi hides a 100,000-mu bamboo forest, with a 30-yuan admission ticket and Asia's longest glass water slide that lets you zoom down from the treetops. Hello everyone, I'm Orange🍊. I've been traveling around Jiangxi for over a decade. Every year at the beginning of September, my inbox gets flooded with the same question: "Summer is almost over, is there anywhere that's cool, exciting, and cheap?" In the past, I would have recommended Yifeng or Jishan. But this year, I have only one answer—Baishuixian in Suichuan. It has a 100,000-mu bamboo forest, 15 waterfalls, and a 3,043-meter glass water slide that claims to be the longest in Asia. The average temperature from July to September is only 22°C. The most incredible part? The admission ticket is only 30 yuan. It's a 1-hour drive from Ganzhou and 1.5 hours from Ji'an. You can also get there by high-speed train and a shuttle bus. This guide breaks down everything you need to know about eating, staying, traveling, and playing at Baishuixian. If you want to catch the tail end of summer without wasting money, this is the only guide you need. 1. Why is September the best time to visit Baishuixian? Baishuixian is located in Bizhou Town, Suichuan County. It is a national AAA-rated scenic spot and a provincial-level scenic area, having been named a "China Forest Oxygen Bar" in 2016. The core area covers 5,000 mu, with 100,000 mu of bamboo forests spreading along the mountains and 15 waterfalls distributed at different altitudes. Visiting in September gets you three benefits. First, the temperature is just right. The official data for summer heat relief is an average of 22°C from July to September, but September feels completely different from July—the mugginess of summer has dissipated, and there's even a slight chill in the mountains in the morning and evening, so you won't feel stifled while walking the waterfall trails. Second, the waterfalls still have plenty of water. April to June is the high-water season, but the waterfall cluster in September is still impressive. The 86-meter-drop Fairy Waterfall crashes down from the cliff top, creating a mist, and there's a high chance of seeing a rainbow after the rain. Third, it's really uncrowded. Baishuixian is not as well-known as Lushan or Sanqingshan, so tour groups basically don't come here. You can walk on the bamboo forest trail for half an hour without running into many people, and you don't have to wait in long lines for the glass slide. 2. How to get there? High-speed train + shuttle bus works Driving (recommended): Navigate to "Baishuixian Scenic Area," take the Suichuan exit on the Da-Guang Expressway, and drive along County Road 821 for about 5 kilometers to arrive. The scenic area has a free parking lot. High-speed train + shuttle bus: Take the train to Ji'an West Station, transfer to a long-distance bus to the county seat, and then transfer to a shuttle bus heading toward Bizhou Town. It's a bit more troublesome, but it's doable. County bus: There is a tourist shuttle in Suichuan County, which is free on weekends and holidays, with departures at 8:00 AM, 10:00 AM, 1:30 PM, and 3:30 PM. If you go on a weekend, you can even save on travel costs. 3. Admission ticket: 30 yuan, unbelievably affordable The admission ticket is 30 yuan per person. Locals in Suichuan County get free admission, and students and seniors get half-price tickets. For comparison: Yixing Bamboo Sea is 70 yuan, Nanshan Bamboo Sea is 90 yuan, and Anji Bamboo Sea is over 100 yuan during peak season. Baishuixian is 30 yuan and includes 15 waterfalls and Asia's longest glass water slide. The glass water slide requires a separate ticket; sales stop at 4:00 PM, so be sure to plan your time in advance if you want to ride it. 4. Core activities: 3 must-dos 1. Hike the waterfall cluster and look up at the 86-meter Fairy Waterfall Enter the scenic area from Wangxian Gate and head up along the Xunxian Trail; the waterfalls are distributed in four levels. The Dengxian Waterfall is 23 meters high and is the first "greeting," with water splashing onto the rock steps and creating a large mist. Further ahead is the Pearl Waterfall, where water droplets scatter like fine beads on the rocks, looking like scattered silver in the sunlight. Further up is the Yujie Waterfall, which folds down along the rock face in layers. The grand finale is the Fairy Waterfall. With an 86-meter drop and several meters in width, a white ribbon of water falls straight from the cliff top to the valley floor, with a rainbow faintly visible in the mist. Standing on the viewing platform and looking up, the wind blows the mist onto your face, and the chill seeps in through your pores. 2. 3,043-meter glass water slide, zoom down from the treetops This is Baishuixian's star attraction. It is 3,043 meters long with a 140-meter drop, built with fully transparent, high-strength tempered glass, and the ride takes about 15 to 20 minutes. Get on a raft and slide down from the mountainside with the water flow. The first half weaves through the bamboo forest, with bamboo on both sides brushing past your head; the middle section speeds up, with wind filling your ears and water splashing on your face; the final section is a direct dive, with your heart rate dropping along with the slope. Reminder: You will get soaked, so bring a change of clothes. Those afraid of heights should be cautious, but the slide is a glass trough close to the ground, not a suspension bridge, so the actual thrill is more controllable than you might imagine. 3. Take a slow walk on the bamboo forest trail and cleanse your lungs Baishuixian has 100,000 mu of bamboo forests. Walking on the trail, you have bamboo crowns blocking the sky above and a soft path paved with fallen leaves under your feet. The sound of the wind passing through the bamboo forest and the roar of the waterfalls appear alternately, and your whole rhythm will unconsciously slow down. The "Yixiantian" (A Thread of Sky) is hidden deep in the bamboo forest, 200 meters deep, allowing only one person to pass sideways, making it a hidden gem section of the bamboo forest trek. 5. Eating and accommodation guide: What's it like to stay in a bamboo forest? Stay: Shanxi Diesu is the top choice The scenic area's own Shanxi Diesu is right next to the visitor center, featuring detached bamboo forest villas where you can see waterfalls when you open the window. The rooms are equipped with smart voice control and smart toilets, costing 300–500 yuan/night. Breakfast is a special nine-grid set, which many guests describe as "great value for money." If you have a limited budget, homestays in Bizhou Town cost 150–250 yuan/night and offer great value. The landlady of "Baishu Renjia" in the village cooks excellent dishes, and rooms are often hard to book during holidays. Eat: Shuixian Restaurant + snack market The Shuixian Restaurant inside the scenic area is the officially recommended dining spot, and you can eat local specialties at the Baishuixian snack market. Suichuan is the origin of Gougunao tea; having a cup of local tea with a bowl of hot soup after finishing the waterfall trail is especially comfortable. 6. Two days and one night, Baishuixian + surrounding loop Day 1: Full day of fun at Baishuixian Arrive in the morning, walk the waterfall cluster trail first, and check in at Dengxian Waterfall, Pearl Waterfall, and Fairy Waterfall in order. Eat lunch at Shuixian Restaurant. In the afternoon, take the glass water slide down the mountain, and return to the homestay for a shower after getting soaked. In the evening, take a slow walk on the bamboo forest trail and wait for the sunset. Stay at Shanxi Diesu at night and fall asleep to the sound of the stream. Day 2: Surrounding hidden gems + return trip If you have enough time, there are several classic routes in Suichuan that you can connect. Go to Tanghu Tea Tourism Town to soak in hot springs and visit Shentagu, or go to Taoyuan Terraced Fields to see the autumn colors; these are all high-quality routes recommended by local officials. Eat a meal of local Suichuan food at noon and return in the afternoon. 7. Old K's insider tips 1. Bring a full change of clothes: You will get soaked on the glass slide, so prepare everything from inside to out. 2. Wear non-slip shoes: The waterfall trails and bamboo forest stone steps have moss, which is especially slippery after rain. 3. A light jacket is a must: The temperature in the mountains is below 22°C in the morning and evening, and you will feel even colder after getting wet on the waterfall trail. 4. Buy slide tickets before 4:00 PM: Sales stop after this time, so don't make a wasted trip. 5. Don't skimp on mosquito repellent: In a 100,000-mu bamboo forest, the mosquitoes are no joke. 6. Best to visit after rain: The Fairy Waterfall has the most water after rain, and the chance of seeing a rainbow is highest. 7. Slow down when driving: County Road 821 has many curves, so it's safer to drive during the day. 8. Recommended side trips: If you have enough time, Suichuan's Taoyuan Terraced Fields, Tanghu Hot Springs, and Gougunao Tea Plantation can be connected into a classic three-day route. Final thoughts Baishuixian isn't a "trendy" tourist spot. It has no cable cars, no small trains, and no overpriced shops. It's just 100,000 mu of bamboo, 15 waterfalls, a glass water slide that lets you zoom down from the treetops, and a 30-yuan admission ticket. Summer is almost over, but the 22°C in the mountains is still waiting for you. I'm Orange🍊, a seasoned traveler who is always on the road. Follow me to discover hidden gems that are "cheap, uncrowded, cool, and totally worth it."
Top 5 kid-friendly spots in the Yangtze River Delta for a relaxing, low-effort trip!
Taking kids on a two-day trip often falls apart not because of money, but because of the pace—rushing in the morning, crowds in the afternoon, and catching trains at night. The key to a stress-free trip is simple: move only once a day, choose activities that flow naturally, and ensure food and lodging are convenient. These 5 spots are planned with this in mind. First up is Tianmu Lake in Liyang; here is a two-day itinerary. 1 | Liyang Tianmu Lake Tourist Resort | Two-day itinerary: One day for the lake, one day for the bamboo forest Day 1: Dedicate the whole day to the lake. Board a boat at the Shanshui Garden Pier in the morning, cruise to the center of the lake, and then head back to Longxing Island. The island's trails follow the shoreline; they are flat with few slopes, making them stroller-friendly. Rest when tired; kids can watch the boats while adults soak up the sun. Return to the shore for lunch—the casserole fish head is best made with silver carp, served with a milky white broth, black rice with sugar, sliced braised liver, and stir-fried white celery. Kids usually love these home-style flavors. No need to cram more into the afternoon; head back to the hotel for a nap, then take another stroll by the lake after waking up. In the evening, visit the Yushui Hot Springs, which has 60 pools scattered across the mountains. The shallow pools are ankle-deep, while the adult pools are hotter. Night sessions are available until 10:00 PM on Fridays and Saturdays. Day 2: Dedicate the whole day to bamboo. Visit Nanshan Bamboo Sea. With 35,000 acres of bamboo forest, the cable car glides deep into the woods. Kids can count the bamboo from the car—more effective than any tour guide. At the end of the cable car ride is Jiming Village, where a monument marks the intersection of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui provinces; walk a few steps to experience crossing three provinces. For kids with energy left, take the ropeway up to Wuyue No. 1 Peak, where the mountain ridge unfolds beneath your feet. Before heading down, stop by the Bird Paradise. The bird show runs every hour on the hour; birds fly overhead and land on the performers' hands. Kids will likely want to watch at least twice. Have lunch at the foot of the mountain, then head home. You only had to move your luggage once during the two days. Travel without the hassle: Within a one-hour high-speed rail radius. From Nanjing, it takes just 26 minutes to reach Liyang Station, followed by a 15-minute drive. Shanghai and Hangzhou are also within about an hour and a half. Stay by the lake and leave after a good night's sleep on the second day. 2 | Shanghai Wild Animal Park (Pudong, Shanghai) | See it all while sitting down The park is huge, so transportation is key: take a bus into the drive-through area to see wild animals pass by your window, take a boat for the water exploration tour, or use the sightseeing electric carts inside the park if you get tired. Twelve amusement rides are included in the ticket price. The pandas, red pandas, and capybaras are the highlights kids won't want to leave. Adult tickets are ¥190; free for children under 6 years old or 1.3 meters tall; half-price for seniors over 65. Take Metro Line 16 to Wild Animal Park Station; it's right outside. It takes about an hour to drive from the city center. 3 | Shanghai Ocean Aquarium (Pudong, Shanghai) | Two hours of peace and quiet Entirely indoors, with a 155-meter underwater tunnel running through the aquarium; look up and watch schools of fish swim overhead. The jellyfish and penguin areas are adjacent, and kids will be mesmerized as they walk through. Strollers are available for rent. The whole visit takes about 1 to 2 hours—not too long, not too short, perfect for the first half of your day. It is open year-round. Tickets are ¥90 for seniors over 60; free for children under 1 meter or under 4 years old. A 5-minute walk from Lujiazui Station on Metro Line 2. 4 | Taizhou Fantawild Wild Land (Taizhou, Zhejiang) | Indoor attractions for most of the day A high proportion of indoor attractions, such as the Flying Theater, Conch Bay, and Life of Light, can be enjoyed while seated. The kids' area concentrates gentle rides in one place, so children don't have to compete with adults. Strollers are available for rent; the park is large and involves a lot of walking, so rent one if you can. Open 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM on weekdays, with night sessions on weekends and holidays. Fireworks are not available every day. It takes over 2 hours to get from Shanghai to Taizhou, and it's about a 30-kilometer, 30-minute taxi ride from the station. 5 | Jinhua Jiufeng Ranch (Jinhua, Zhejiang) | An affordable nature lesson Tickets are ¥30, with family tickets offering even more savings—this is the most accessible option on the list. The ranch offers milking, horseback riding, go-karts, a small train, and interactions with cute animals; you can even bake your own pizza. The grassland is open and spacious; bring a picnic mat in the autumn and you can easily spend half a day there. The facilities are quite simple, and the farming area may have a bit of an odor, so be prepared. It takes just over an hour and a half to get from Shanghai to Jinhua, followed by a 40- to 50-minute taxi ride, or you can take a local bus. A few tips for a two-day trip 1. Change locations only once a day; plan your route based on where to stay rather than the number of attractions. 2. Do activities that require waiting in line in the morning, and save the sit-down activities for the afternoon. 3. Use indoor venues as backups for rainy days or afternoons; plan outdoor activities for the morning. 4. Rent a stroller if you can; the amount of walking in theme parks and zoos is often underestimated. 5. Save hot springs for the end of your trip; you might be too exhausted to enjoy them if you do them first. 6. Check your train tickets, admission tickets, and reservation codes the day before you leave. Check the official notices for ticket information and opening hours on the day of your visit.
What people are saying about Liyang
Tianmu Lake Nanshan Bamboo Sea Scenic Spot
Traveling alone wasn't tiring at all. I was familiar with the environment, and the buildings were very well preserved. The biggest surprise was encountering pandas—not in glass enclosures, but outdoors! We got very close, and they were sleeping quite soundly. 😊😂
M26***06Tianmu Lake Yushui Hot Spring
Every visit to Yushui Hot Spring is different, and this time the night view was especially stunning. The lights changed colors, making us feel like we were in a dreamlike paradise. The water was very clean, and the soaking was very comfortable. What we found most memorable were the friendly and welcoming staff, even though they weren't very young. The snacks were also delicious. Overall, we were very satisfied.
M33***73Tianmu Lake Natural Scenery Park
Tianmu Lake Scenic Area boasts beautiful scenery and offers a great boat tour experience. The lake water sparkles, surrounded by green mountains, and the park is clean and suitable for leisurely walks and visits by people of all ages.
M22***27Tianmu Lake Tourism Resort
Tianmu Lake Scenic Area is a wonderful place with mountains, lake, and boats! A boat trip on the lake offers stunning views of the layered mountains. Longxing Island boasts lush vegetation and fresh air, and the animals are all so cute! Our next stop was the Tea Culture Garden on Tea Island, a great place to visit and learn about tea culture. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we didn't get to see everything and had to take the sightseeing bus out of the park. Overall, it was a worthwhile trip, and I highly recommend everyone to experience this tranquil atmosphere!
M33***94Tianmu Lake Hantian Spring & Spa
This hot spring has a stunningly beautiful environment with tranquil and pleasant scenery. The staff are exceptionally warm, attentive, and considerate, making soaking in the hot spring incredibly relaxing and comfortable – a truly perfect experience!
GG666888Liyang Museum
No reservations are required; just scan your ID card to enter. The first floor covers the history of Liyang, from the ancient times to the New Fourth Army period. The Ancient People exhibition hall is arranged like a safari park, lush and green. There's a museum guide at the entrance, so you can use it to find some of the museum's treasures. Each exhibit also has a corresponding QR code, so if you have time, you can listen to the detailed explanation. The second floor doesn't offer much, focusing on Liyang's modern development, commercial store models, and information on the county's transition to a city. It takes only five minutes to complete. The third floor is closed, probably due to infrastructure adjustments. The Eye in the Sky is right outside the exhibition hall, so it's crowded.
*蚂蚁8Bamboo Sea Rafting
I took the elderly and children to experience rafting. 95% of the whole process was shaded by trees on both sides, and there was no big slope. It can be said to be a "cowardly rafting" and friendly to the elderly 😂😂! In the spacious and flat area, playing water fights is a great fun. A water scoop is a must, and water guns can be purchased in advance. The children had a lot of fun and wanted to play again 😂

温暖superNanshan Bamboo Sea Tram
On the first weekend of 24 years, I took my family to Nanshan Bamboo Sea to watch giant pandas and lion dance performances. When the child was riding the cable car, a blue sword fell into the car. The driver Xiao Wang in the car was very enthusiastic to help us find it and let us pick it up in the control room at the next station after we got down the mountain. I am very satisfied with the service of Nanshan Bamboo Sea and give it a thumbs up.
M50***53Tianmu Lake Water World
The children especially like the Water World. We went to Suzhou for a few days and on the way back we specially passed by Tianmu Lake and played in the Water World for an entire afternoon. This is the second time we have been there this year. The child said that he would bring his sister here to play in the water next year.
