Not the Maldives, but a viral WeChat Moments post from Jiangxi

Take a high-speed train to visit Jiangxi's "Little Maldives"! Lushan West Sea - a magical place made up of 8,000 islands! It's less crowded and off the beaten path, definitely worth rushing to! / ⭕️ "Recommended Route": Mengsheng Mountain Dock ➡️ Lone Tree in the Sea ➡️ Cloud Dwelling Island ➡️ Goddess Island ➡️ Ruoxi Island ➡️ Golden Dragon Bridge ➡️ West Sea Star Island Glass Observation Tower ➡️ Mengsheng Mountain Dock (return) ➡️ Twilight Market ➡️ Zhelin Old Town (night tour) / 📸 "Sightseeing Guide": ① Lone Tree in the Sea: Take a boat from the dock to reach this magical spot! A single tree standing in the lake water, lonely yet peaceful! ② Golden Dragon Bridge: A winding waterfront boardwalk connecting two islands, from above it looks like a golden dragon, very spectacular! ③ West Sea Star Island Glass Observation Tower: The highest point in the archipelago! The view from the top is amazing! The floor is made of glass, both thrilling and spectacular! You can also try to find "Love Island"! ④ Cloud Dwelling Island: At the far end, there's a coconut grove beach that gives you Maldives vacation vibes! ⑤ Ruoxi Island: Home to many cute animals! Peacocks, monkeys, and more! Perfect for family visits! ⑥ Twilight Market: Colorful stairs that look so dreamy! Come here to witness the romantic West Sea sunset! There's also a lonely tree on the grassy shore, creating a great atmosphere! ⑦ Zhelin Old Town: You can visit this old town at night, with its ancient style and charm, also very photogenic! / ⚠️ "Travel Tips": ① Check the weather forecast in advance, it looks much better on sunny days! ② Plan your time wisely, the whole tour takes about 4 hours, and the last boat departs at 17:00. / ⭕️ "Transportation Guide": 🚄 High-speed rail: Arrive at Jiujiang Station, then take a bus from Jiujiang South Bus Station directly to Lushan West Sea Scenic Area. 🚗 Self-driving: Navigate directly to the destination, parking lot available.
