A two-day, one-night nanny-level guide is here!

📍【Jiuhua Mountain】 Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 💰Tickets: 160 (half price for students) ✅Recommended reasons: The sacred site of Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva! A visual feast of seas of clouds and wondrous pine trees. The first choice for 99% of tourists coming to Chizhou. Burning incense and praying here is incredibly effective. Remember to have a bowl of vegetarian noodles for 15 yuan. ❌Points to avoid: So many steps you'll question your life choices! Wear sneakers! Non-Buddhist enthusiasts might find it a bit monotonous. Remember to bargain at the guesthouses at the foot of the mountain. 📍【Guniujiang in Shitai County】 Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 💰Tickets: 108 including shuttle bus ✅Recommended reasons: Anhui's "Little Jiuzhai" is real! The emerald waters of the pools are breathtakingly beautiful. No filter needed for photos! The 3-hour hike is not tiring at all. Great for kids! ❌Points to avoid: Choose restaurants with high ratings! A certain farmhouse restaurant charged me 38 yuan for a plate of stir-fried vegetables. 😭 📍【Pingtian Lake】 Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 💰Free! ✅Recommended reasons: The ultimate romantic spot for sunset bike rides! Cycling around the lake is super relaxing. Wear a white dress and take "seaside" photos. Visit Wanghua Tower in the evening to watch the sunset paint the sky and understand the meaning of "water and sky merging into one." ❌Points to avoid: Don't rent bikes for 30 yuan/hour! Scan the QR code at the entrance and rent a shared bike for 1.5 yuan. 📍【Xinghua Village】 Recommendation index: 🌟🌟 💰Tickets: 88 ✅Recommended reasons: The Qingming Festival destination from ancient poems. Great for taking photos in Hanfu. ❌Points to avoid: Highly commercialized! For the same price, Suzhou gardens are a better option. Even locals say, "Go to the countryside to see flowers, it's much better." 📍【Penglai Fairy Cave】 Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟 💰70 yuan ✅Recommended reasons: The longest cave in East China! Spectacular karst landscape. A perfect summer escape from the heat. ❌Points to avoid: Damp and slippery! Mostly frequented by elderly tour groups. Not recommended for those with poor physical fitness. 💡【3 Hard-Learned Lessons】 1⃣The high-speed train arrives at "Chizhou Station," not "Jiuhua Mountain Station"! A taxi to the scenic spot costs upwards of 70 yuan. 2⃣Attractions in Shitai County are scattered. Driving or chartering a car is recommended (around 200 yuan per day). 3⃣Must-try foods: Small rice cakes (1.5 yuan/each), stinky mandarin fish, Lingyang tofu hot pot
