A one-day guide to Lianjiang Qiguanding

Standing on the cliff of Qiguanding and looking out, it feels like entering a painting left behind by gods. The thousand-meter cliffs are like being cut by a knife and chopped by an axe, falling straight into the emerald East China Sea. When the sun pierces the clouds, the entire mountaintop turns into a suspended golden island, and even breathing becomes light and transparent - this is the "China's Rio de Janeiro" stamped by National Geographic, and it is also a secret place in the clouds left by the Creator to eastern Fujian.
