Yongjia Academy: Beautiful as a Song and Yuan Dynasty landscape painting

Yongjia Academy is located in the core area of ​​Nanxi River and is a national 4A scenic spot that combines culture and nature. The name of the attraction is quite deceptive, and you have to climb a lot of mountains. Historically, Yongjia Academy was founded by Wang Zhiyuan in Lucheng District, Wenzhou in the seventh year of Chunyou in the Southern Song Dynasty (1247). 【Yongjia School】 The Yongjia School, also known as the "School of Practical Achievement" and the "School of Utilitarianism", is a Confucian school that was formed in Wenzhou during the Southern Song Dynasty and advocated practical achievements. The Yongjia School advocated "applying knowledge to the world and pursuing both righteousness and profit". It is listed as one of the "Three Great Schools of the Southern Song Dynasty" along with Zhu Xi's Taoism and Lu Jiuyuan's School of Mind. It advocates the development of business, pragmatism and innovation, and is also the traditional origin of the "Wenzhou Model" after the reform and opening up and the historical source of the Wenzhou people's entrepreneurial spirit of "daring to be the first in the world." 【Attractions List】 Walking slowly into the academy along the clear and emerald green Nanxi River, you will see towering rocks on the riverbank, like the roar of a tiger or a lion. There are pavilions with wings and neat houses. Facing you are the dark green mountains and steep cliffs. A touch of golden ginkgo breaks through the plain coldness. Nature, wildness and humanity (new creation) are harmoniously unified. Take a car (paid) and climb the mountain. Along the way, the mountains are high and the valleys are deep, with strange peaks and occasional waterfalls. It should be very spectacular during the flood season. The view from the top of the mountain is excellent, but unfortunately the sky is dark and rainy. Only the clear Nanxi River bends like a jade hairpin, uniquely and eye-catchingly adorning the earth. At the top of the mountain is an additional paid entertainment project, the Eros Cloud Gallery. The mountains and rivers are quiet, and the sound of footsteps in the empty valley leads us to the most central attraction of the academy - Jinzhu Waterfall. 【Tour Guide】 💵Tickets: Main ticket is 45 yuan. The electric tourist bus costs 5 yuan, and the mountaintop [Eros Cloud Corridor] entertainment project includes a shuttle bus for about 160 yuan. ⭐- Short route without climbing: Entrance-Phoenix Ferry-Moon Bridge-100-meter Dingbu Bridge-Jin Gu Waterfall-Yongjia Academy-Jinzhu Waterfall ⭐- Long hiking route: Entrance-Jingu Waterfall-Eros Cloud Gallery shuttle bus (can be purchased separately)-Sky Cloud Gallery-Jinjian Waterfall-Dongtianyixian-Jinzhu Waterfall 🕰Time: 1 hour for short-term and 2 hours for long-term; it is best to come during the flood season in summer. 📣Note: The bamboo raft outside the scenic area costs about 60 yuan per person, and those who claim 100 yuan are cheating.
