| These 2 free water play spots are less crowded—hurry! Summer is the perfect time to enjoy water activities in Anji! 🉑 Go creek trekking, have water fights, catch fish and shrimp, and immerse yourself in nature while admiring the scenery—it’s pure joy. Today, I’m recommending 2 “zero-cost” water play spots that are less crowded, environmentally pristine, and teeming with fish and shrimp—absolute hidden gems~❤️ 1️⃣ Wuxiang Dam 📍 Navigation: Anji Wuxiang Dam Fruit Shop (After arriving, you’ll see a parking lot near the dam and a slope on the other side leading down) This is one of the closest water play spots to Anji’s town center, featuring woods and a creek. You can picnic or play cards in the shade of the trees, set up tents by the shallow water for barbecues, or splash around and hunt for crabs—fun for both kids and adults alike. There’s also a café nearby where you can grab coffee and snap some photos. Tip: The woods have lots of mosquitoes, so bring insect repellent spray and ointment. 2️⃣ Yunzhu Valley 📍 Navigation: Yunzhu Valley Creek Trekking Family Resort (No. 43, Guolutan Natural Village, Longwang Village, Shangshu Township, Anji County) 🈶 Next to Yunzhu Valley lies a wide wild creek, divided into two sections: a deeper area for rafting and a shallower area for setting up tents, cooling off, having water fights, and crab hunting. The creek is long, making it ideal for outdoor enthusiasts who love creek trekking. Surrounded by rolling mountains, the environment is serene and peaceful. Near the water play spot is the Yunzhu Valley Homestay 🏡—just climb the steps to rest inside. This family-friendly homestay has 4 floors: the first floor features a swimming pool, barbecue area, karaoke, and dining; the second floor has a ball pit for kids; and the third and fourth floors offer family rooms, mountain-view double/twin rooms, and more. 🈶 Beyond water play, the homestay offers many activities: 1. Hiking ancient trails (the village has 5 trails) 2. Barbecue + outdoor movie nights 3. Making zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) and rice balls 4. Customizable activities upon request Come to Anji for water fun this Dragon Boat Festival! 🎈🎈
