I Found This Hidden Gem in Lishui Too Late!

With perfect temperatures right now, it's an ideal time for outdoor activities. Recently, I visited Lishui with friends and was instantly captivated by this treasure of a city. To our delight, we discovered a hidden gem - the Jiaolong Grand Canyon. Surrounded by mountains with flowing streams and splashing waterfalls, the canyon is especially enchanting after rain when clouds and mist create a heavenly scene 🍃 📍 Location: Jiaolong Grand Canyon 🚗 Transportation: Self-driving is recommended. If taking high-speed rail, get off at Jinyun West Station. 🏞️ Touring Route: From the entrance, visit Xianshui Cave, then proceed to the 360° Glass Viewing Platform, cross the Lingyun Bridge, step onto Love Island, admire the Three Lives Tree, stroll through the fairyland area, walk along the thousand-year-old path to reach Jiaolong Pool, pass by the General's Bridge, and exit. 📷 Photo Spots: 1. Titanic Viewing Platform: Located above the plank walk, offering a breathtaking panoramic view of the entire canyon that refreshes both body and mind. 2. 360° Glass Viewing Platform: Standing on the transparent glass floor, look down into the deep valley below for an intense visual experience that's beyond words. 3. Jade Pool: The pool water displays an enchanting emerald color, crystal clear like a brilliant gem set within the canyon. 4. General's Bridge: A waterfall thunders down in front of the bridge, especially spectacular after rain when the water flow is intense. 📝 Helpful Tips: 1. Duration: The complete circuit takes about 3 hours. 2. Equipment: There are many mountain paths, so wear comfortable shoes for easier walking. 3. Weather: Check the weather forecast in advance. Be careful during rainy days as paths can be slippery ☔️
