🏮The moment the lights were turned on in the evening was so beautiful that I was speechless! 🌈The lights were turned on in the evening, and the lights flickered, illuminating every corner of the block. The eaves and corners cast mysterious light and shadows under the bright yellow light, and the mottled shadows under people's feet were intertwined. The air was filled with the fragrance of various snacks, and the fireworks were lingering, as if I had instantly traveled to the glorious and splendid Tang Dynasty. 🌌The bluestone path was winding and the road surface was slightly shiny in the evening. Walking slowly, women in ancient costumes were passing by from time to time, laughing and fluttering. The shouts of the sister selling candied haws and the uncle who was carefully painting candy on the roadside were all worth stopping to watch and taste. 🏮The lanterns and wind chimes on the roadside floated with the breeze, adding a touch of romance to this gorgeous night. There are many old-fashioned handicrafts on both sides of the road, delicate embroidery, grand inscriptions, and quaint wood carvings. The deeper you go, the deeper your sigh will be. Each gift carries the hard work and wisdom of the craftsmen. Choose a unique souvenir for your loved one. 📷Every corner of the street can produce a blockbuster in minutes. Standing on the ancient stone bridge, behind you is the brightly lit street scene, like a gorgeous dream. Whether standing in the pavilion or leaning against the window, you can take a photo of your life.

Isn’t it true that when winter comes, we southerners feel itchy and always want to see snow? Today I will tell you about some great places to enjoy snow around Guangdong👏. Nanyue Hengshan ⛰️ It is quite convenient to go to Hengshan from Guangdong. If you choose to take the high-speed rail, it only takes two and a half hours to drive from Guangzhou South to Hengshan West Station. If you start from Shenzhen North, it will take about two hours. Get off at Hengshan West Station, then transfer to a bus, and you can reach the foot of Hengshan Mountain in about 15 minutes. For those who drive by themselves, it takes about five hours. The best time to enjoy the snow in Hengshan is from the end of December to February of the following year. There are not many accommodation places in the scenic area, mainly distributed at the foot of the mountain and halfway up the mountain. If it snows, the sightseeing bus may be out of service, so we can only walk up on our own two legs. If you are not very physically strong, you can split the trip into two days. I think staying halfway up the mountain is a good choice. It’s about 5 kilometers of hiking from the halfway up the mountain to the top of the mountain. It usually takes about two and a half hours to walk. Not too tiring. Hengshan is quite cost-effective among the rime-viewing places around Guangdong, but there are relatively few places to stay, and it may take some effort to go up the mountain. Mangshan Wuzhi Peak Scenic Area ⛰️ If you take the high-speed rail, it only takes one and a half hours from Guangzhou South to Chenzhou Station, and two hours from Shenzhen North to Chenzhou Station. After leaving Chenzhou Station, it takes about an hour and a half to take a taxi to Mangshan, and it takes about four hours to drive there. The viewing period of Mangshan is also from the end of December to February. The accommodation there is mainly concentrated near Ximen. There are hot spring hotels, but the prices are a bit high. The advantage of Mangshan is that you can not only enjoy the snow scenery, but also enjoy the hot springs comfortably. The key is that you don’t have to climb the mountain. It is perfect for those of us who want to enjoy the snow easily. Jiangxi Lushan ⛰️ If you go from Guangzhou South to Lushan Station, you need to change trains, which takes about five hours in total; if you take the train from Guangzhou Station to Jiujiang Station, it will take 13 hours. The best time to enjoy the snow in Lushan Mountain is from the end of December to February. There are many B&Bs and hotels on the mountain, but in the peak snow season, the price is generally between 500 and 1,000 yuan. The snow scene in Lushan Mountain is quite unique. The snow is thick and not inferior to the snow scene in the north. You can have fun building a snowman there. Let me summarize it for you: Hengshan: Among the rime viewing options around Guangdong, the cost is relatively reasonable, but there are few accommodation places, and you may have to hike up the mountain when it snows. Mangshan: You can enjoy the snow and soak in hot springs without having to climb the mountain. There are many accommodation options in Ximen, among which hot spring hotels are more expensive. Lushan Mountain: The snow scenery is quite unique, the snow is abundant, and there are various accommodations on the mountain. The price increases to a certain extent in the peak season. You can choose the snow viewing destination you want to go to based on your actual situation, such as budget, physical strength, etc.

2.5 hours from Shenzhen, take a high-speed train to see the snow. The following attractions are recommended: 1. Mount Heng, Hunan: It takes about 2 hours and 44 minutes from Shenzhen North Railway Station to Hengshan West Railway Station. Mount Heng is a famous snow-viewing destination in southern China. December to February is the best time to see the snow. The rime is a spectacular sight. There are also attractions such as Zhuruong Peak, Nanyue Temple, Zeng Guofan Ancient Road, and Nantianmen. You may have the chance to see snow, sunrise, a sea of clouds, and starry skies at the top of the mountain. 2. Mangshan, Hunan: It takes about 2 hours from Shenzhen North Railway Station to Chenzhou West Railway Station, and then about 1.5 hours by scenic area bus to Mangshan. You can see snow from December to early February. There are cable cars, escalators, and vertical elevators to the top of the mountain, which is suitable for tourists who want to see the snow easily. There are also forest hot spring hotels nearby, so you can enjoy the fun of hot springs while watching the snow. It is recommended to check the local weather forecast and scenic area announcements before visiting these attractions to better plan your trip.

🌟 Nanyue Mount Heng: The Zen-inspired Landscape That Stands Out Among the Five Sacred Mountains 🌟 Walking along the mist-shrouded mountain trails of Mount Heng, I suddenly understood why ancient poets described it as "Mount Heng soaring like a bird." Revered as the "Mountain of Longevity," its seventy-two peaks stretch across 400 kilometers, resembling a giant bird spreading its wings—majestic yet exquisitely beautiful. 📜 The Past and Present of Mount Heng Known as the "Mountain of Longevity" in antiquity, Mount Heng was designated as one of the Five Sacred Mountains as early as the Yao and Shun eras. It is not only the Third Grotto-Heaven in Taoist cosmology but also a cradle of Chinese Zen Buddhism. From the Sui and Tang dynasties to the Ming and Qing, countless literati left their poetic marks here. Li Bai praised its "verdant peaks piercing the purple heavens," while Han Yu immortalized it with his verse: "Where the sun shines on Mount Heng stands an academy of renown." 🏯 Nanyue Temple: The Ancestral Home of Zen The Nanyue Grand Temple, built during the Liang Dynasty of the Southern Dynasties, served as the primary site for imperial sacrifices to the Southern Sacred Mountain. Its treasured Song Dynasty stone carving, the "True Form Chart of the Five Sacred Mountains," preserves the topography of that era. Fuyan Temple, nestled mid-mountain, was the meditation ground of Zen Master Huairang, the Seventh Patriarch, and remains a thriving center of worship today. At dawn, the temple bells resonate through the valleys, transporting visitors back to an age steeped in Zen. 🌅 The Sunrise Spectacle at Zhurong Peak At 4 a.m., we ascended Zhurong Peak under a starry sky. When the first rays of sunlight pierced the sea of clouds, painting the sky in crimson, Xu Xiake’s words—"mornings unveil Mount Heng’s clouds"—finally made sense. At the summit, Zhurong Hall enshrines the fire god Zhurong, believed to have been Emperor Yan’s temporary palace during his royal tours. 📿 The Millennia-Old Buddhist Legacy of the Scripture Depository Built in the Tang Dynasty, the Scripture Depository is one of Mount Heng’s oldest surviving wooden structures. Strolling under its ancient ginkgo tree, with golden leaves carpeting the stone steps, feels like listening to whispers of a thousand years of Buddhist wisdom. Pro tip: November is the best time to witness the ginkgo’s golden splendor—a scene rivaling "an empire cloaked in golden armor"! 🍃 The Poetic Retreat of Water Curtain Cave At the foot of Zigai Peak, Water Curtain Cave features a hundred-meter cascade plunging from the cliffs. Ming Dynasty explorer Xu Xiake’s favorite spot, he described it as "a flying waterfall before the cave, like the Milky Way pouring down." Visit in summer to bask in the cooling mist—a perfect escape from the heat. Mount Heng, a sacred mountain encoding the essence of Chinese civilization. Here, every stone tells a story, every cloud weaves a legend. Only by visiting Mount Heng does one realize how landscapes can truly speak to the soul.
