Come to Jiangxi, please save a day for this place

Finally saw the "thousand islands like a string of pearls intoxicated by rain and mist, vast rippling waves connecting to the sky" in the eyes of Hang Zhonghua. Truly worthy of being called the "Maldives of Jiangxi." Over 8,000 islands are scattered like stars, connected by plank roads. Walking among them, watching the islands slowly awaken from their slumber. Greenery spreads over the small islands, water birds glide across the surface. The poetic beauty of the landscape becomes tangible at this moment. . Address: Lushan West Sea, Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province 🚗 Drive directly to Sima Pier parking lot (1 hour from Nanchang) 🚤 After ticket inspection at the entrance, board the boat directly to the island. Boats run once every hour, check the pier notice for details. . 🗺️Tour route (no backtracking) Take a boat from Lushan West Sea Sima Pier - Canghai Yishu - Yunju Island - Goddess Island - Ruoxi Island - Jinlong Bridge - West Sea Star Island Glass Observation Tower - Return - Twilight Market - Night tour of Zhelin Old Town . 📸 Key photo spots guide ✅ Canghai Yishu: Experience the misty mountain and water landscape by boat. A solitary tree stands in the center of the lake, gently embraced by the vast water, isolated from the world. At sunset, the tree’s shadow reflects on the lake, blending with the evening glow. Every shot looks like a cinematic masterpiece. ✅ Yunju Island: The island features simple and elegant Chinese architecture, fine soft sandy beaches, and swaying coconut trees, giving it a "little Maldives" vibe. Climb the Yunju Tower for a panoramic view of the lake and mountains, watch the withered lotus sway, and listen to frogs and cicadas—super relaxing~ ✅ Goddess Island: Legend says this is where a fairy descended to earth. The goddess statue on the island stands gracefully with a peaceful expression. You can also experience exciting jungle adventure activities, full of fun. ✅ Jinlong Bridge: This long golden dragon bridge spans the lake, connecting two islands. Standing on the bridge, enjoy the lake and mountain scenery, feel the breeze, and the aerial shots are stunning. ✅ West Sea Star Island Glass Observation Tower: A 99-meter-high glass observation tower. From the top, you can overlook Lushan West Sea in 360 degrees. The beauty of the thousand islands like a string of pearls unfolds like a magnificent natural painting between heaven and earth, breathtaking and spectacular. ✅ Twilight Market: The Twilight Market bustles at dusk. Listen to street performers’ singing, taste local specialties, and feel the warmth of everyday life in the twilight. ✅ Zhelin Old Town: As night falls and the lights come on, encounter the lively Tang Dynasty atmosphere in the ancient town. Enjoy various wonderful performances and taste a variety of local delicacies. ⚠️ Tips: ✔️ Be sure to come on a sunny day! The water is really super blue! Shoot with the light, super blue! ✔️ Wear a pair of comfortable shoes! The islands are connected, and there’s quite a bit of walking in one day! ✔️ The last return boat is at 17:00. Manage your time well so you don’t miss it~
