Here's a guide to viewing the advection fog at Wanfenglin!

Clouds cascade over the peaks, a scene of ink painting in Xingyi | Visit Wanfenglin in winter for a rare and spectacular advection fog phenomenon. When milky white clouds flow like water over thousands of peaks, verdant fields and Buyi villages appear and disappear in the sea of ​​clouds, you'll understand why Xu Xiake once exclaimed, "There are countless mountains in the world, but only here do peaks form a forest." This guide to stunning fog viewing will take you to the most dreamlike moment of China's most beautiful peak forest! 【Wanfenglin Advection Fog Viewing Guide】 Advection fog in Wanfenglin typically occurs frequently in winter and spring, usually lasting from 6:00 AM to 8:00 AM. If you miss it, you'll have to wait another year! Let's capture the scene of houses, fields, and mountains appearing and disappearing in the fog, like a traditional ink painting! ⏰️Recommended Viewing Time Season: Autumn and winter are the most frequent seasons, especially on clear mornings after rain. Time: 6:00 AM - 8:00 AM is the golden window. 👉️Recommended Viewing Spots It's best to stay in a guesthouse within the Wanfenglin Scenic Area. This allows for a more relaxed pace and better views, without having to rush. Recommended spots include Fengxi Banshan, Xiguan Luori Campsite, Yuexi Li, Tengshe Mountain Top Private Hot Spring Inn, and Yuezhu Tianjing Yise. 🚗Itinerary Suggestion (2 Days 1 Night Highlights) Day 1: Arrival and Preparation • Arrive in Xingyi in the afternoon and check into a guesthouse within the Wanfenglin Scenic Area (book in advance! We recommend the area near Nahui Village for scenic views). • In the evening, cycle along the rural boardwalk to familiarize yourself with the terrain. Visit the Wanfenglin Scenic Area's "Fengchaoji," "Fengxi Zhufu/Fengxi Riverside Cafe," and Nahui Village. • For dinner, try the Buyi ethnic minority's sour bamboo shoot beef, sour bamboo shoot fish, and the Buyi Eight Bowls. Get some rest early. Day 2: Fog Chasing Trip • Wake up at 6:00 AM, put on a warm coat, quickly wash up, and grab your camera and drone (which can be used with permission within the scenic area). Drawing back the curtains reveals the following scene: The entire Wanfenglin Scenic Area, shrouded in a thin mist, presents its peaks, villages, and rivers in a hazy, ethereal beauty, like a poem, a painting, a dream, or a fantasy. The misty atmosphere creates a unique charm, resembling a "heavenly palace on earth." • 06:30-08:30 Immerse yourself in the mist, take photos, and experience the changing light and shadow. • After 9:00, the mist gradually dissipates. Take a sightseeing bus to tour the viewpoints on Wanfenglin Mountain. Recommended viewpoints include: "Beautiful Fields," "Six-Six-Auspicious-Peak," "Eight Trigrams Field," and "Fortune-Character Field." • After descending the mountain, you can visit Fengchao Market to enjoy local snacks or a bowl of flavorful fried rice. In winter, besides witnessing the spectacular advection fog, a bowl of fried rice, a few cold dishes, cycling, admiring the rapeseed flowers, and basking in the sun offer a relaxing and leisurely lifestyle in Wanfenglin.
