I thought West Lake was beautiful, until I came to Jiangxi...

Who can relate? I always thought West Lake was the most beautiful place in China, until I set foot on the magical land of Jiangxi... If you want to avoid the crowds during the Lunar New Year, come here! Over 8,000 islands are scattered across the lake, with emerald green waters and lush forests. It's like a Chinese version of the Maldives, and it's so beautiful that I was speechless! Every view is a visual feast, and it's so healing! 📍Address: Lushan West Sea, Jiujiang 🚄Transportation: Take a high-speed train to Nanchang Station, then drive or take a taxi for 1 hour to get there. 🚶‍♂️Here's a suggested itinerary: Mengsheng Mountain Pier ➡ Canghai Yishu ➡ Yunju Island ➡ Goddess Island ➡ Ruoxi Island ➡ Jinlong Bridge ➡ Xihai Star Island Glass Observation Tower ➡ Take a boat back to Mengsheng Mountain Pier ➡ Night tour of Zhelin Old Town. No need to backtrack, and every step is a beautiful view! ✅Don't miss these spots: 📍Jinlong Bridge: A winding bridge spans the water, connecting two islands. From a drone's perspective, every frame is stunning, with a 100% chance of getting great photos! 📍Canghai Yishu: A solitary tree stands in the center of the lake, both awe-inspiring and peaceful. As you approach it slowly by boat, the whole world becomes quiet, as if time has stopped for it. 📍Xihai Star Glass Observation Tower: The highest point on the island, with a glass observation deck that offers a 360-degree view of the islands. The stunning scenery is laid out before you, and it's truly breathtaking! 📍Zhelin Old Town: As night falls and the lights come on, you'll feel like you've traveled back to the Tang Dynasty. The atmosphere is amazing! There are also plenty of delicious foods to try, and it's so much fun to explore and eat! ✅Here are some tips for your visit: 1️⃣Choose a sunny day to visit. The sunlight on the lake makes the water look incredibly blue, and it's so healing! But be sure to wear sunscreen, or you might get sunburned! 2️⃣The islands are large, and you'll mainly need to take a boat to get around. The last boat leaves at 17:30, so don't miss it, or you'll be stranded on the island!
