Compared to Mount Wugong, I prefer this mountain that Xu Xiake wanted to visit again!

Wow! You would never have thought that in Jiangxi, there is a fairyland that even Xu Xiake couldn't resist visiting again - Guifeng in Shangrao 🌄! Highlights "Every mountain and stone looks like a turtle." Guifeng not only has unique Danxia landforms, but also a beautiful environment with few people. Whether it's the peak forest, steep cliffs, square mountains, stone walls, or stone pillars, every part is a masterpiece of nature 🎨. Travel Guide - **Location**: Guifeng Scenic Area, Yiyang, Shangrao, Jiangxi Province - **Opening Hours**: 07:30–17:00 (last entry at 16:00) - **Transportation**: - Take a taxi from Yiyang Railway Station to the scenic area (approx. 20 mins). - Or take Bus No. 2 or the free double-decker Guifeng bus. - If you drive, it takes about 2 hours from Shanghai or Hangzhou, and about 3.5 hours from Nanjing or Suzhou ⚡🚗. Recommended Routes - **Turtle Exploration Route** (5 km, approx. 2.5 hrs): Pass through the Osmanthus Garden, General Building, and Hero Slope to the Crape Myrtle Garden, and enjoy the perfect combination of nature and culture 🌿🏞️. - **Xu Xiake Ancient Path** (8 km, approx. 3.5 hrs): Start from the Turtle Welcome, pass through the Century Road and Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers, and experience the weight of history 📜🌳. - **Full Adventure Route** (10 km, approx. 4.5 hrs): Explore Sandao Pass, Nantian Pillar, Camel Peak, and Qingshui Pond, challenge yourself, and enjoy the fun of the outdoors 🏔️🧗‍♂️. Photo Spots - **Hero Slope**: A stone staircase at the top of the mountain, perfect for aerial photography 📸🤳. - **One Line Sky**: A narrow path between two peaks, as if in another world 🕳️🌌. - **Golden Bell Peak**: From the top of the mountain, you can not only see the rocking horse, but also the spectacular Camel Peak in the distance 🏔️📸. Comfortable Accommodation - **Guifeng Fangcaodi Resort Hotel**: Only 100 meters from the scenic area, with buffet breakfast, making your trip more relaxing 😴🍽️. Tips - Wear comfortable sneakers and bring trekking poles, as the mountain roads are winding and safety is the top priority 💪👟. - There are small shops on the mountain, so you can bring some snacks and water, but not too much to avoid being overburdened 🍫hydration_pack. Come on, let's embark on this magical journey and explore the stories hidden in the mountains! 📖🌍
