Jiangkou Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)

People from the south always have to visit the Fanjing Mountain in Guizhou

This is the city of the sky in China, like a green ark floating in the vast sea of clouds, standing in the continuous Wuling Mountain Range, telling the vicissitudes of more than a billion years, this is the illusion of the Buddhist country Fanjing Mountain. Fanjing Mountain is located in the vast hinterland of the Wuling Mountain area, one of the oldest areas that rose from the sea to the land south of the Yellow River. It is the first mountain in Guizhou, the first peak of Wuling, not only the watershed of the Wujiang and Yuanjiang rivers, but also the highest main peak of the Wuling Mountain Range that spans Guizhou, Chongqing, Hunan, and Hubei. After billions of years of baptism, it still maintains the most primitive ecological environment. The magic of Fanjing Mountain is created by the nature's craftsmanship. 🏔"You must go to Fanjing Mountain, to see the pure land of Fan Tian lost in the world" Take your loved ones to feel the real city in the sky!

Fanjing mountain - a dream

We came to climb the mountain just a few days before the Chinese New year holiday and we found that there were not too many people. We stayed near the entrance so that we could just walk to the ticket office once we finished our breakfast. currently the ticket is free if you are Chinese but I had to pay 70 rmb. I think it was half price because of the winter season. we took the cable car up and walked the rest up to the mushroom stone. Because of snow we were not able to climb to the last peak to the top of the mountain but it was still amazing. #newyearadventure #fanjingshan #travel #explore #china #guizhou

a climb to remember ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

Getting There - speed train from Guiyang north, or 3hrs 20mins drive from Guiyang city to jiangkou, tongren Attractions - Fanjingshan, mushroom mountain Hotels - Yinshe home stay Food & Restaurants - local street restaurants Shopping - Guizhou tourist exhibition center to get all your local souvenirs

Feel a different kind of bonfire in Zhaisha Village! April's Fanjing Mountain is full of azaleas, so I can't help but make a ticket and say I will leave. What I didn't expect was that when I arrived at Fanjing Mountain, the temperature was close to zero, and there was really a sense of despair that was frozen into a dog. In the evening, I stayed at the nearest Zhaisha Village at the foot of Fanjing Mountain. The bonfire party in a city made me feel hot again. I didn't feel the cold smell in the air. Zhaisha Village is located in a remote area, 27 kilometers from the county, 3 kilometers from the gate of Fanjing Mountain Scenic Area, 1 kilometer from the ecological botanical garden, close to Fanjingshan Buddhist Culture Garden (the world's largest golden Buddha). Zhaimen, Square, Bell and Drum Tower, Farmhouse, and 64-storey two-story slings are typical buildings of the village. Zhaisha is in the foothills of the magical Fanjing Mountain. The clear Taiping River flows slowly from the front of the gate, and the ancient trees on the riverside are towering. Surrounded by the entire village of Qingshan, it is like a paradise. Tips: It is now the peak season for Fanjing Mountain Tourism. Accommodation in Zhaisha Village must be booked in advance. Then the temperature difference here is very big, especially when it rains, warm clothing such as jackets must be brought.

Zhai Sha Zhai, the mother-in-law of the mother-in-law, lies at the foot of Fanjing Mountain. In the middle of the mountains, Zhaisha is like a lazy girl who is half-baked in Qiulou Yuyu. In the evening, in the evening, I lit a bonfire to let the fire shine on the waves under the shore, igniting a pile of bonfires, igniting distant memories, igniting a bonfire, a burning friendship.

In the Mt. Fanjing Mountain, there is a beautiful village called Zhaisha. In the source of the Jinjiang River, there is a simple ethnic group called the Yi. The village of Zhaisha at the foot of Fanjing Mountain, the patchwork of the Drum Tower and the green mountains and green waters. Sitting in the mountain village far away from the hustle and bustle, there is a rare elegance and coziness in the Van Gogh green buds of the Van Gogh Mountain Ecological Kingdom. Try the unique green and fresh taste of Jiangkou Lingshan Xiushui. Wild vegetables can forget the world's troubles and harvest a natural and quiet exotic flavor.

Not far from Fanjing Mountain Scenic Area, about two or three kilometers. The whole stockade is surrounded by mountains, and a small river flows slowly from the front of the village. It is a very leisurely village. A suspension bridge connects the two banks of the river. It has a unique style. The river is not deep. In the hot summer, many tourists and locals play water on the shore. The whole village is not large. It is a typical building with two wooden stilts. Using the aerial camera to shoot, you can see that each home has a courtyard, if you can stay here for a few nights, don't mention how comfortable it is. Zhaimen, Square, Bell and Drum Tower, Farmhouse, 64nd floor, two-story slings are typical buildings of the village. Zhaisha is in the foothills of the magical Fanjing Mountain. The clear Taiping River flows slowly from the front of the gate, and the ancient trees on the riverside are towering. The entire stockade is surrounded by green hills, nestled in the maolin bamboo, like a paradise.

Beautiful Little Village and Scenic Area ❤️

Yunshe scenic area is a short 5km drive out of jiangkou and is a real beauty to wake up and do in the morning. I was there for 8am on a Tuesday and had the entire place to myself for most of the morning. Walk around taking beautiful pictures and feeling very peaceful - what more can you ask for? The locals will be busy fishing, washing clothes or rinsing their vegetables in the river and you can just meander around the streets and stop for breakfast when you’re ready. Loved this place!

When people get to Tongren, they all know to go to Fanjing Mountain, but they don't know that there is a 'First Tujia Village in China' hidden at the foot of Fanjing Mountain - Yun She Village. It is said that this is a place where immortals once lived. In fact, 'Yun She' is Tujia language, and its real meaning is 'the place where monkeys drink water'. Yun She Village is located on the eastern slope of Fanjing Mountain, on the bank of the Taiping River and upstream of the Jinjiang River, backed by Cen Mang Slope and facing Ba Yuan Slope. The Wind and Rain Bridge was the entrance to the ancient village, spanning the Taiping River at the entrance of the village. The villagers live together, and two rivers run through the village. The blue stone alleys in the village connect the whole village. The Wind and Rain Bridge has become the most beautiful scenery on the Taiping River and also the blessing bridge for the villagers of Yun She Village.

Cows and Blossoms @ Fanjingshan Park 🌸 🐮

If you are staying in Jiangkou for a night i’d recommend taking a walk down to the park and along the river front. Its peaceful through the day and if you visit at the right time of year (i was there in March) then u’ll get to see lots of different types of tree blossom 🌸 At night time it really picks up and is busy with locals dancing, skipping and playing around. I loved it for a free hour walking around and just absorbing a smaller China town feeling.

Mt Fanjing

#celebratewithtrip This popular tourist destination is quite hard to find but worth a visit if you are in the area. The main attraction is two building connected by a bridge on the Mountain top, but the scenery is beautiful. The Park follows the same formula as most attractions in China - bus, cable car, mountain loop. If you were a confident Chinese speaker you might be able to navigate a different route but I was forced to stick to the main path. My research suggested there were some pathways to walk up to the mountain but I found them impossible to find during my trip. Signs say it is possible to find monkeys and beautiful birds. The surrounding towns are pretty sleepy and when I did my trip it was outside the main tourist time so lots of the tourist amenities like buses from the town to the site weren’t open. #celebratewithtrip #fanjingshan

The mountains and the mountains are full of mountains and red, drunk and beautiful. This time I went to Fanjing Mountain to play, mainly to the azaleas running through the mountains and plains. There may not be many tourists who know the Fanjing Mountain azaleas. Most people only know the old Jinding, the city of the sky and the mushroom stone. If you want to see the azaleas, you must walk a lot of mountain roads. This is for the physical strength of the tourists. Absolutely no small challenge. Do not take the unusual road to see the unusual scenery. The Fanjing Mountain line, where few people will walk, the rhododendrons in the mountains and plains, the scenery is absolutely irresistible temptation. Unfortunately, there was no homework before departure. The azaleas of Fanjingshan were more than a week away from full bloom. Now I only see that the two or three are not completely connected, but I am satisfied enough. Fanjingshan West Line In addition to azaleas, you can also see precious monkeys and other precious animals and plants, but you must know that walking along the Fanjingshan West Line will be another gate of the Fanjing Mountain Scenic Area. It takes an hour and a half to go there to return to Zhaisha Village in Jiangkou County. There is no public transportation and you can only choose to charter.
