Back from the Torture Trip in Lishui – Sisters, Take My Advice!

🌋 OMG, you won’t believe it! Just returned from my "special forces" trip to Lishui! Listen up, you MUST read this before going! 💥 ✨ Before the trip, I was so excited, dreaming of Lishui’s picturesque landscapes 🌄 and a romantic getaway. But reality hit me hard!! Let me help you dodge the pitfalls 🚫—do your homework before coming, or you’ll end up as exhausted as I was, questioning your life choices 😫! 🚗 Transportation-wise, if you’re not driving yourself, PLAN YOUR ROUTE IN ADVANCE! I wasted so much time ⏰ on transfers and figuring out rides—time that could’ve been spent enjoying the scenery was lost waiting for buses and getting lost 😩. Some attractions are poorly connected, so check the schedules beforehand, or you’ll be stuck waiting on the roadside forever 😅. 🏠 Accommodation is another big issue! Don’t cheap out and stay somewhere too remote ❌! To save money, I booked a homestay far from the scenic spots, and the daily commute ate up so much time. Plus, there were hardly any food options nearby 🍜—even finding late-night snacks was a struggle. Next time, I’m staying near the attractions for convenience and peace of mind 🥺. 🌳 Lishui’s scenery is undeniably stunning—lush mountains and crystal-clear waters 🌊, like a fairy tale. But some spots are HUGE! 🦶 I wore what I thought were comfy shoes, but after a day of walking, my feet were wrecked. So, ladies 👭, wear your most comfortable sneakers 👟, or you’ll be too busy looking for a place to rest to enjoy the views 😭. 🍲 Food-wise, Lishui has lots of local delicacies 🍢, like traditional pastries and noodles—definitely worth trying! But check reviews 📋 before picking a restaurant. I fell into a trap: a place that looked decent turned out to be mediocre and overpriced 😤. Also, some dishes are massive, so don’t overorder, or you’ll waste food 🥲. 📸 Photos are a must on any trip 📷! Lishui’s natural beauty makes every shot gorgeous, but timing is key ⏱️—dawn and dusk have the best light. I messed up and took photos at noon under harsh sunlight 🌞, leaving my face shadowed and dark—so frustrating 😭. In short, Lishui is breathtakingly beautiful 🌈, but PREPARE THOROUGHLY before you go! Hope my tips help you, sisters 👯‍♀️—wishing you all a perfect Lishui adventure! Let’s gooo 🦆!
