A Detailed Guide to Xiandu | Stay in the Heart of the Scenic Area and Unlock Stunning Views

| Stay in the Heart of the Scenic Area and Unlock Stunning Views. Hey there, friends! 👫 Are you ready for an immersive and dreamy trip to the Xiandu Scenic Area? Then you absolutely can't miss this guide! The Blossom Hill Inn (Jinyun Lumingxuan) is the perfect "base camp" for exploring Xiandu. This trip is guaranteed to be worth it! 👏 📍 Prime Location in the Scenic Area The inn is perfectly situated in the heart of the Xiandu Scenic Area, allowing you to seamlessly immerse yourself in the picturesque beauty of this 5A-rated attraction. Xiandu Scenic Area is renowned for its unique volcanic rock formations, which have created countless breathtaking landscapes. Dinghu Peak: This is the iconic landmark of Xiandu, known as the "No. 1 Bamboo Shoot in the World." Rising 170.8 meters, this solitary peak towers into the sky. Visit in the early morning, and you'll find it shrouded in mist, resembling a divine pillar standing alone in a fairyland. It's also a popular filming location for many movies and TV series. Standing at the foot of the peak, you'll feel like you've stepped into a world of fantasy. Moreover, the area around Dinghu Peak is vast, and the Huangdi Temple is also located here. The annual Huangdi Ceremony is held here, adding to its rich cultural heritage. Ni Weng Cave: Located on the mountainside of Chuyang Mountain, this cave was formed by the erosion of weathered agglomerate pumice by the Hao Stream and the uplift of the earth's crust. Legend has it that Ni Zi, the teacher of Fan Li, lived in seclusion here after helping Yue defeat Wu. There are 60 inscriptions from past dynasties, and the "Ni Weng Cave" inscription by the seal master Li Yangbing is a true treasure. "Joy of Life 2" was also filmed here. Xiao Chibi: Formerly known as Baiyan, this cliff is located across the stream from Xiayang Village. It stretches about 650 meters from east to west and is about 60 meters high. The cliff face is mottled with reddish-brown and white, resembling a fire burning from a distance. It is similar to the Yangtze River's Chibi (Red Cliff) but smaller in scale, hence the name. There is also an inscription of "Yin Hai" signed by Gong Tingbin, a magistrate of the Ming Dynasty. "Joy of Life 2" also left its mark here. Furong Gorge: Located three or four kilometers upstream along the Hao Stream from Dinghu Peak, you can reach it by crossing the stream into the valley. The cliffs on both sides are pitch-black, and the mountains are like castles made of steel. The further you go, the higher the cliffs and the narrower the valley become. At its narrowest point, only one person can pass through. The scene in the movie "Ashima" where Ahei shoots an arrow through the mountain was filmed here. Further in, there is the lush Zizhiwu, which is said to be where the Eight Immortals of the East Sea drank mountain spring water and tasted Zizhi mushrooms. Xiandu Temple: Formerly known as Zhao Hou Temple, this is the oldest recorded ancestral temple building in Jinyun, dedicated to Zhao Bing, a Taoist alchemist from the Eastern Han Dynasty who was skilled in medicine. He used his skills to treat people and save countless lives, and the people built a temple to worship him in gratitude. Many movies and TV series, such as "Monk Comes Down the Mountain," "Flying Daggers," and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," have been filmed here. Zhutan Mountain: Located across the stream from Banyan Village, it is named Zhutan Mountain because Zhu Xi of the Southern Song Dynasty often came here for leisure and boating on the green pool. The cobblestone embankment along the pool is lined with weeping willows, and a long bridge spans the water. It is a popular place for couples to take wedding photos and is also called Xiandu Embankment. The Wangfeng Pavilion on the embankment is an excellent spot to photograph the reflection of Dinghu Peak. The famous photographer Wu Pinhe won an international photography award for his work "Fairyland," which was taken here. Staying at Blossom Hill Inn (Jinyun Lumingxuan) is like having the scenic area as your home, ready to start a wonderful exploration at any time! 🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️ 🏠 Rooms: A Blend of Warmth and Quality Stepping into the room, you'll be instantly enveloped in a sense of warmth.
