Jinyun Xiandu | Picturesque scenery awaits you

🚶‍♀️Itinerary Day 1️⃣: ➡️Xiao Chibi ➡️Xiandu Temple ➡️Zhutan Mountain ➡️Dinghufeng Peak ➡️Niweng Cave ➡️Yan Dang Study at Xixiaoyan Day 2️⃣: ➡️Jinyun Museum 📌Tips: 1️⃣Except for Dinghufeng Peak, all other attractions are free. 2️⃣You can board the scenic bus at Xiao Chibi. Tell the driver which attraction you want to go to and buy a ticket. Except for Xiao Chibi, there are ticket inspectors at each stop where you can buy tickets (ticket expiration date: 2 days, hop on and off as you please). 3️⃣For the Zhutan Mountain performance "Old Farmer Herding Cattle," please check the showtimes on the official account in advance. The performance will be canceled on rainy days. It happened to rain when I went (see the picture for showtimes). 4️⃣There is a campsite and a cafe at Niweng Cave with amazing views. I spent more than an hour there just relaxing. It was so comfortable! Next time I go, I must camp there overnight. 5️⃣Yan Dang Study can be quite noisy when it's crowded, but it's a great place for taking photos. 6️⃣Jinyun Museum: I recommend visiting the museum to learn about the history of Jinyun. There is an exhibition of Li Zhenjian's works, mainly ink paintings, including some figure paintings. The lines are very vivid and worth copying. 🚗Transportation Mainly taxis and scenic buses. If the distance is not too far, I suggest taking the slow train to Lishui. The scenery along the way is amazing. 🎫Tickets Dinghufeng Peak requires an entrance fee, which I didn't pay. 🍽Food Recommendations 1️⃣I ate at my B&B hostess's house. Jinyun's baked sesame cakes, with the aroma of preserved vegetables and minced meat, were delicious. I think they are even better than Jinhua's spicy shortcakes. 2️⃣The small wontons made by the hostess were also delicious. 3️⃣There is a small stall selling freshly squeezed sugarcane juice at the exit of Niweng Cave. It's delicious and looks clean and hygienic. 4️⃣I ate Jinyun's Tu Shuang Noodles opposite Niweng Cave. How should I put it? The first bite was quite good, the shredded meat was especially fresh, and the noodles were soft. But the more I ate, the stronger the flavor became, which was a bit strange. I don't know if they added too much MSG. There are other local specialties you can try. If you find anything delicious, please recommend it to me! I'll try it next time I visit.
