The intoxicating fairyland, the shining pearl in the vast ocean - Shennongjia

When we arrived at the beautiful and mysterious Shennongjia, the local customs and culture are always moving. If you have friends who want to travel, don’t miss this place. The scenery of Shennongjia is different in spring, summer, autumn and winter. This place is full of magic, with vast forests, rugged rocks, and each season has its own characteristics. For accommodation, we chose to stay at Shennongjia Kande Junlan Hotel, which is one of the hotels under the Kande Hotel Group in Dongguan, Guangdong, and is equipped with considerate services. The overall style of the hotel tends to be simple, elegant and grand. Various small details are well done, and the furnishings are carefully selected at first glance. The hotel has a very advantageous geographical location, connected to Menshan, Tianshengqiao, Shennongtan, Xiangxiyuan Scenic Area in the south, and Shennongding, Dajiu Lake, Tianyan, International Ski Resort and other scenic spots in the north. After storing the luggage and changing clothes, I set out with friends to visit the surrounding scenic spots. If you don’t visit Shennong Valley, you will have wasted your trip to Shennongjia, so the first stop was Shennong Valley. The canyon scenery came into view. This is said to be the most beautiful place in the entire scenic area, and it is known as the First Peak of Shennong. Afterwards we came to the paradise on earth, Dajiu Lake, where there are lakes, bridges, plank roads, courtyards, and reflections in the lake. It is just the transition between summer and autumn, and there is a special feeling here. In the bleak autumn wind, it feels like you are cultivating immortals in a fairyland. There is also a must-visit deer park inside Dajiu Lake, where you can feed the deer and take lots of photos with them, and truly experience seeing deer in the deep forest and old trees accompanying the ancient houses. On the second day, we came to Tianyan Scenic Area to see the Yun Waterfall and feel the gift of nature. We also checked in at Feiyun Ferry, also known as the "Rainbow Bridge". We happened to encounter heavy fog and walked on this bridge and felt like it was a road to heaven. Then come and check out the Tiansheng Bridge, a natural bridge tunnel that is a masterpiece of nature. The hole is gourd-shaped and the scenery here is very nice. The air is very fresh, and the place gets its name because it is relaxed and happy. The real thing is also spectacular, with sapphire-colored waterfalls hitting the rocks. It is one of the scenic spots that you must visit when you come to Shennongjia. ~ Finally, we came to the mysterious and solemn Shennong Altar, a scenic spot that showcases the achievements and merits of the ancestor Shennong, as well as rare ancient tree species. The park has an ancient botanical garden, a thousand-year-old cedar king, Shennong Altar, etc. The statue of Shennong in the altar is tall and majestic, solemn and dignified, with his eyes slightly closed, as if he is seeing through everything in the world. We arrived at the scenic spot early and it was drizzling and foggy. The scenery along the way was shrouded in clouds and fog. Because the temperature is relatively low, it is recommended to wear long pants, Madden work shirts and vest jackets, and choose shoes with good grip. I don’t know how to describe the hazy beauty at the end. Slowly the clouds began to dissipate, and the beautiful scenery came into view. This is probably what it means to wait for the clouds to clear and see the moon. It was really a good experience. After checking in at various scenic spots, we returned to the hotel for a rich dinner. There was a selection of Cantonese cuisine cooked by a team of chefs from Guangdong. It was a great pleasure to taste very authentic Cantonese cuisine in a foreign place. Hotel: Shennongjia Kangdi Junlan Hotel Address: Opposite Zuimuyu, Pianqiaowan section of Muyu Road, Muyu Town. I ask the green mountains when they will grow old, the green mountains ask me when I will be idle, I see that all the mountains are covered with grass and trees, only you are the green mountain, the green mountains have gone with the evening wind, I and the sea have become mulberry fields, the morning sun sets and the sunset is bright, the sea of ​​clouds is shallow and the autumn rain is lingering Shennongjia is known as the "Kingdom of Plants" and "Natural Sea of ​​Flowers". More than 3,700 species of plants. In spring, Shennongjia is a riot of colour with flowers in full bloom, dyeing the mountains and valleys. Among the hundreds of flowers in Shennongjia, the most famous is the alpine rhododendron. Shennongjia is truly the hometown of rhododendrons. In Shennongjia, alpine rhododendrons can be found from 1,200 to 3,000 meters above sea level. There are so many beautiful sights in heaven and on earth, but none can compare to the beauty of Shennong.
