Just Back from Gexian Village - Not Recommended for April Visits

Here's a genuine travel guide based on firsthand experience, revealing all the secrets to filling your social media feed! 🌸Meet the Muscular Village Chief! Spring-exclusive Benefits Who would have thought you'd get flowers from handsome men in traditional costumes at Lingbao Fairy Street🌺! Every Saturday in April, there's a "One-day Village Chief" event where attractive NPCs randomly give out flowers, take photos, and offer princess carries (those abs feel amazing). For families with kids, don't miss the 3pm parade where children can get handmade bamboo pinwheels. 🚡Cable Car: Save 2 Hours with This Strategy ⚠️Learned the Hard Way: Don't wait for the Jinsha cable car! Rush to the Waishuangxi cable car before 8am - it takes just 10 minutes to reach mid-mountain. Walk the West Coast boardwalk counterclockwise for stunning sea of clouds views☁️. For the descent, take the Jinsha line at 4pm - perfect timing to capture the sunset during your ride📸 🌌Zhongmiao Pavilion Night Show: Step into a Fantasy Drama Be ready at 8pm for the water screen light show! When immortal cultivators glide across the lake surface with their swords, remember to use live mode when the mist explodes. Pro tip: go behind the pavilion to capture reflections - moonlight + lanterns create a natural soft light filter. 🍃Xichen Gate's Secret Spot: Perfect for Introverted Photographers Head to the end of "Crescent Alley" to avoid crowds! Cherry blossoms float over bluestone paths - wear a plain long dress and twirl for perfect shots, no editing needed. Best time: 7am when the morning mist lingers. Stand with an umbrella in front of Xichen Gate for "Dream of Splendor" drama-worthy shots. 🏡Cloud Accommodation: CNY 150+ per Person with Great Perks Think scenic area hotels are expensive?
