Still worried about where to go for your vacation? Why not come to Mount Gexian Village in Shangrao, Jiangxi, and live like a celestial being for a few days! Here, amidst the misty fairy mountains and the tranquil, ancient villages, every photo is wallpaper-worthy. It's no wonder National Geographic named it a "Paradise on Earth"! Take advantage of the beautiful spring weather in March and come to Mount Gexian Village for a romantic spring encounter~ 📍Location: Mount Gexian Village, Shangrao, Jiangxi 🚗Transportation: Take the high-speed train to Shangrao Station, then transfer to the scenic spot bus (1.5-hour ride). 🌸【Spring-Exclusive Activities】 In the springtime, Mount Gexian Village is in full bloom with plum blossoms, filling the entire village with a romantic atmosphere. Not only can you encounter a handsome internet celebrity acting as the "Village Head for a Day" and handing out flowers, but you can also witness the parade of the Twelve Flower Goddesses, who seem to have stepped straight out of a traditional Chinese painting. It's like stumbling into a spring festival. 📝【2-Day, 1-Night Itinerary】 Day 1 Spring Outing: Stroll along Lingbao Fairy Street and experience the charm of the ancient streets → Take a boat tour on the lake and interact with the koi → Ascend the Zhongmiao Pavilion for a panoramic view of the village → Participate in the bonfire party and end a wonderful day with lively festivities. Day 2 Pilgrimage: Take the cable car up Mount Gexian → Visit the Tianjing Platform and take in the magnificent mountain scenery → Visit the Grand Gexian Temple and experience its sacred atmosphere → Head to the Feisheng Platform and experience a feeling of transcendence → Return. 🍃【Picture-Perfect Spots】 1. Zhongmiao Pavilion: The landmark building of the scenic spot. Here, you can feed koi from the tour boats. Don't miss the spring-exclusive performances and folk shows—they're incredibly photogenic. 2. Lingbao Fairy Street: As night falls and the lanterns gradually light up, you'll be instantly transported back to the prosperous ancient capital. Every frame is as beautiful as a movie scene. 3. Crescent Moon Alley: As dusk settles, stroll along the steps adorned with oil-paper umbrellas for a poetic experience and amazing photo opportunities. 4. Tianjing Platform: Located at the top of Mount Gexian. Standing on the prayer platform, with the distant mountains resembling dark eyebrows, a stunning ink-wash painting unfolds before your eyes. ✅【Helpful Travel Tips】 1.

If you enjoy taking photos, wear a Hanfu and carry an oil-paper umbrella for stunning pictures. 2. Lingbao Fairy Street and Crescent Moon Alley are home to numerous snack stalls and restaurants. Be sure to try local specialties like Lead Mountain Hot Noodles and Dengzhan Guo for a culinary journey. 3. We highly recommend staying at the hotels within the scenic area.
