Jiangxi Only "breathtaking" can describe this mountain!

I thought Huangshan was the pinnacle of mountain scenery until I encountered Guifeng—certified by National Geographic as "China's most beautiful Danxia landform" and doubly recognized by UNESCO as both a World Natural Heritage site and Global Geopark. It was so beautiful that I couldn't get over it even after hiking for two days! 🌄 Breathtaking Moments: Spectacular Sunset and Misty Wonderland I was lucky enough to witness pre-rain fiery clouds filling the sky, followed by rolling sea of clouds after the rain. Mountain peaks appeared and disappeared in the mist—every casual photo looked like wallpaper material! The best part? Few tourists, gentle boardwalks throughout, and cloud seas appearing after just a few dozen meters of climbing. So beginner-friendly that my legs weren't even sore after hiking it twice! 🗺️ Three Routes to Choose From (with time estimates) 📍 Guifeng, Shangrao, Jiangxi | High-speed train to Yiyang Station, then 20-minute taxi ride 🌟 Divine Turtle Route (5km, 2.5hrs) Osmanthus Garden → General's Tower → Hero's Slope → Wisteria Garden Highlights: Short but sweet; Hero's Slope offers amazing sunset views! 🌟 Xia Ke Route (8km, 3.5hrs) Divine Turtle Welcome → Century Path → Enchanted Forest → Heavenly Flower Scattering → General's Tower → Hero's Slope → Wisteria Garden Highlights: Enchanted Forest Pavilion where you might encounter birds and small animals—maximum healing vibes! 🌟 Complete Route (10km, 4.5hrs) Osmanthus Garden → General's Tower → Three-Way Junction → South Sky Pillar → Glass Walkway → Camel Peak → Clear Water Pond Highlights: Summit Camel Peak (highest point in the scenic area), walk through clouds on the glass walkway—transforms into a fairyland after rain! 📸 Six Must-Visit Photo Spots ✅ Guifeng Lake: Take a boat ride to see "turtles playing in water" formations with stunning Danxia reflections! ✅ Hero's Slope: Challenge yourself on this steep slope without handrails; sunset brings spectacular skies with 100% photo success rate! ✅ South Sky Pillar: A solitary peak reaching skyward; in the evening, witness poetic scenes of "sunset glow and lone birds flying together"! ✅ Golden Bell Peak: Colorful rocking horses at the summit—become a "cloud knight" with an amazing mountain panorama below! ✅ Sacrifice Cliff: Hundreds of meters of sheer drop—maximum thrill factor (not for those afraid of heights)! ✅ Camel Peak Glass Walkway: When clouds flow over the walkway, it feels like walking in a celestial palace! 📌 Tips to Avoid Pitfalls (Important!) 1. Bamboo Raft Hours: Service ends at 17:30—don't miss out if you want water activities! 2. Sun and Bug Protection: Hats and sunscreen essential on sunny days; mosquitoes are abundant at the mountain base, so bring a small bottle of repellent! 3. Ticket Value: All-inclusive ticket for 160 yuan (entrance + shuttle bus + boat ride) is the best deal; entrance-only ticket is 60 yuan (boat not included). 4. Local Cuisine: Try Yiyang rice cakes and bowl rice pudding at farmhouse restaurants at the mountain base—carb heaven! Want to escape the May Day holiday crowds? Come here for exclusive Danxia landscapes and cloud-sea sunrises—every breath is nature at its finest! 🌄
