2025 Ji'an Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

#Charter Bailuzhou Academy is a national key cultural relic protection unit. This famous academy was built in the first year of Chunyou in the Southern Song Dynasty (1241) and was founded by the patriotic Prime Minister Jiang Wanli when he was the military governor of Jizhou. Jiang Wanli was attracted by the quiet and peaceful environment of Bailuzhou and thought it was an excellent place to study and clear the mind, so he built a temple and opened an academy. The academy is located on an oasis in the Ganjiang River east of Ji'an City (very suitable for chartering a car or driving yourself). It is named "Bailuzhou" because egrets often live on the island. The environment here is beautiful, with clear water and egrets flying among the trees. It is an ideal place to study. The location of Bailuzhou Academy not only reflects the ancient people's awe and respect for the natural environment, but also laid a solid foundation for its subsequent development. Since Jiang Wanli founded Bailuzhou Academy, it has played a leading role as a model. Under the cultivation of the academy, Luling scholars became famous in imperial examinations, scholars formed a forest, writers formed a school, officials formed a group, writings formed a mountain, and patriots died for their country, making Luling culture prosperous for thousands of years and becoming the center of Jiangxi culture. When you come to Bailuzhou Academy, it is very convenient to charter a car and drive yourself, because there are plenty of parking spaces. On the southwest side of Bailuyuan Community - there are parking spaces on the ground in the parking lot, which makes parking super convenient✨; it only takes 8 minutes and about 620 meters to walk to the entrance of the academy! Or you can go to the roadside parking lot on the east side of Yanjiang Road, which is also a ground parking space and has no pressure to park. It is about an 8-minute walk, about 530 meters away, to reach the academy. As a cultural landmark in Ji'an, Jiangxi, Bailuzhou Academy is a must-visit.

There are many scenic spots in Ji'an. This time I will introduce a very famous local attraction: Shuixiang Historical and Cultural District. “Shuixiang Historical and Cultural District” One Tower, One Well and Three Academies is located north of Tianhou Road, directly opposite Ji'an No. 5 Middle School. It is composed of original protected buildings, relocated buildings and newly built buildings. In 2016, Shuixiang was rated as a national historical and cultural district. The "Water Lane" has a history of nearly a thousand years and has nurtured generations of Ji'an people. Every brick, tile, blade of grass and tree here bears the traces of time and hides the humanistic customs of life. It is a landmark that gathers Luling's cultural assets and is also the city memory of Ji'an people. Shuixiang is based on Luling culture. Most of the houses in Shuixiang are made of wood. Brick and tile houses from decades ago and wooden bolt doors are still preserved. Family mottos are written on the walls, and there is also an ancient house that is hundreds of years old. In Shuixiang, there is an ancient tower called Jiang Shicheng Tower. Jiang Shicheng Pagoda is a component of Weiyang Temple. It was built in 1082 by Jiang Shicheng, a native of Qingjiang County.

"Don't mock the farmer's cloudy winter wine; in good years, guests feast on chicken and pork. Through mountains and streams where paths seem to end, past dark willows and bright flowers, another village appears." Once, we dreamed of such pastoral life from our textbooks until discovering Diaoyuan Ancient Village in Ji'an, Jiangxi - a millennium-old settlement embraced by 20,000 camphor trees. This ancestral home of Northern Song Dynasty literary giant Ouyang Xiu's descendants features black-tiled houses with gray bricks and scattered ponds. Walking through it feels like stepping into a moving Song Dynasty painting. 🚶‍♀️ Take a Stroll Through Ancient Villages and Experience the Thousand-year-old Luling Culture The ancient Diaoyuan Village's architectural layout subtly aligns with the "Eight Trigrams" pattern. Over a hundred Ming and Qing dynasty Ganzhou-style residences are built along the mountainside, with seven ponds linked together like the "Seven Stars Accompanying the Moon." The Ouyang clan's main ancestral hall in the village features an imposing and solemn three-character formation structure. The couplet "Nine generations of unparalleled literary excellence, eight generations of the finest scholarly family" still tells the story of the Ouyang family's glorious cultural heritage. The Gan-style old buildings exude a mellow warmth of age, with horse-head walls and courtyard corridors seemingly concealing countless stories. After renovation and transformation by Shili Fangfei, the ancient village has quietly developed a sense of fashion! Coffee shops by the rice fields and handicraft workshops sit next to old ancestral halls, where tradition and modernity seamlessly blend, creating a cinematic atmosphere perfect for photography at every turn 📸 🏨Poetic Living: Finding Ouyang Xiu's Romance in Nature This time, I stayed at the Zhen X Hotel, which was converted from a traditional Gannan-style residence with 28 rooms. Surrounded by swaying bamboo groves and winding paths, the hotel features a mix of gray-tiled roofs, blue bricks + minimalist natural wood design. The moment you step in, you're instantly soothed by its raw, natural textures ~ Inspired by the locally abundant Jinggangshan pomelos, the hotel incorporates pomelo designs, elements, and colors throughout its lobby and guest rooms. You can even catch the fragrant scent of pomelos in the air. Here, you can enjoy a relaxing stay, and when you open your window, you'll find yourself immersed in poetic vistas stretching into the distance. Diaoyuan Ancient Village has several other guesthouses in Shili Fangfei area, offering options for different budgets. 🍵 A Culinary Journey Through Ancient Villages: From Pomelo Coffee to Rural Home Cooking ✅Luanxia Yan Restaurant: Discover a new take on Jiangxi cuisine at the Zhen X Hotel restaurant!

They not only announce each activity in advance, but also provide a brief introduction in the group chat, along with several beautiful photos (so you have ready-made content for your WeChat Moments ~ 😬). You can sign up according to your preferences, so you won't miss anything and don't have to wait in line. The experience is super great 💗 😃 There are so many activities every day that you can't possibly do them all. This is the only hotel where my two kids didn't take a nap. They kept pulling us outside. Eventually, I really couldn't walk anymore, so my partner and I took turns taking the kids out 😅 We were busy during the day, and we weren't idle at night either. There was molten iron fireworks, a nightfall ceremony, a night tour, releasing lotus lanterns, a bonfire concert... 😃 There are no extra charges during holidays, and there aren't too many tourists. If you can only travel at this time, the value for money is very high 👍 🙁 There are many small alleys, so it's easy to get lost. 🙁 The water flow in the shower and bathtub is a bit weak, so it takes a long time to fill them... 🙁 The swimming pool is in the center of the scenic area, which means there are always tourists passing by while you're swimming. This varies from person to person, but I personally find it a bit awkward 🙂‍↕️ One night, while the two little ones were asleep, my partner and I sneaked out the back door, ran to the bar to buy two grilled sausages, and walked along the river eating them, enjoying the breeze and gazing at the starry sky. The scene was so beautiful that it will be hard to forget for the rest of my life ~ 💕 Diaoyuan Ancient Village, Ji'an Diaoyuan Shili Fangfei Village

The hotel building, lobby, and room interiors are all relatively new. Upon entering the room, you are greeted by a large washroom where you can watch TV while taking a bath. The toiletries provided are also good, with a light and pleasant fragrance, and there are bath salts and loofah sponges for bathing. The hotel service is very good. The front desk ladies speak very gently. The tea provided in the lobby is also very good, all health teas, and the varieties are changed every day. When you check in, the room TV has a welcome message with the guest's last name, and there is also a welcome fruit plate. The hotel breakfast is on the 1st floor, and the variety is quite rich. There are some Jiangxi specialty snacks, such as white sugar cakes and egg and meatball soup. The only downside is that the hotel is in the new district, and take-out food cannot be delivered directly to the hotel. The front desk ladies told us that we could locate the International Convention and Exhibition Center and note the hotel name.

✨On a sunny day, I arrived in Taihe County, Jiangxi Province, known as the "Home of Silky Fowl," with a relaxed mood. Walking along the bustling Shangu Road, I was dazzled by the various food and late-night snack stalls on both sides. My destination, the Yitel Hotel (Taihe Central Plaza Pedestrian Street Branch), is located on this food street. As soon as I entered the lobby, the warm smile of the receptionist immediately dispelled the fatigue of the journey. She not only carefully introduced the location of the laundry room, but also told me the specific location and dining time of the buffet breakfast restaurant, and even sent a beautiful souvenir, which made me feel at home. 🌟 **Comfortable and Home-like Rooms** Stepping into the room, the soft and comfortable "Morris Bed" seemed to be calling me to rest. The separate shower and toilet, with a dry and wet separation design, made every wash an enjoyment. In the evening, opening the window, you can see the bustling crowd on the pedestrian street and feel the pulse of the city. 🍵 **Rich Buffet Breakfast** The next morning, I came to the buffet breakfast restaurant and was amazed by the dazzling array of food in front of me. There are 35 kinds of Chinese and Western breakfast options, from traditional porridge, soy milk and fried dough sticks to Western bread and coffee. Every bite is satisfying, making people want to come here every day to enjoy it. 🛍️ **Convenient Shopping Paradise** The hotel is located in the most prosperous business district in the center of the county.

In addition, from the hotel, it takes about 20 minutes by car to reach Taihe Bus Station, which is convenient for traveling to more beautiful natural landscapes. If you want to experience more natural scenery, Ji'an Jinggangshan Airport is not far away and can be used as a starting point for you to explore other areas of Jiangxi. This trip to Taihe, the Yitel Hotel left a deep impression on me. Whether it is the comfortable accommodation environment or the thoughtful service, I feel at home. If you are planning to visit Taihe, you may want to consider this hotel, I believe it will leave you with wonderful memories. ✨

🚩Qingyuan Mountain Scenic Area, Qingyuan District Qingyuan Mountain Scenic Area is a famous scenic spot that combines Buddhist culture, celebrity culture, and beautiful scenery. It was praised by the famous poet Yang Wanli of the Southern Song Dynasty as "Jiangxi's No. 1 Scenic Spot." It is like a bright pearl, inlaid on the land of Qingyuan District, exuding unique charm and attracting countless tourists to explore. 🎫Ticket Information Admission to Qingyuan Mountain Scenic Area is free. If you want to visit the scenic area more easily, you can also choose to take a sightseeing bus. There are two ticket prices for the sightseeing bus: CNY 10 for a round trip from the entrance to Yangming Academy, and CNY 20 for a round trip from the entrance to Yangming Academy and Jiudie Spring. 🅿️Parking in the scenic area is also very affordable, costing only CNY 3 for 4 hours, so you can travel without worries. 🤘🏻Recommended Travel Route Yangming Academy Qingyuan Mountain is not only a famous Buddhist mountain, but also a cultural mountain, known as the "convergence of Confucianism and Buddhism." During the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty (1506–1521), Wang Yangming, the magistrate of Luling County, believed in "mind learning" and chose to teach and preach in Qingyuan Mountain, making it an important birthplace of Neo-Confucianism. During the Jiajing period (1522–1566), the Qingyuan Guild Hall was built next to Jingju Temple. In the 19th year of Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty (1839), Lu Chunru, the prefect of Ji'an, established Yangming Academy on the north side of Daiyue Bridge in Qingyuan Mountain, specifically for the study of Wang Yangming's theories. For this reason, it is known as the "land of Neo-Confucianism." In the long river of history, Yangming Academy has also witnessed many important moments. In 1930, the Third Branch of the Red Army and the Red Army Rear Hospital were established here. From 1939 to 1948, Ji'an Provincial High School and the 13th National High School were also relocated to Yangming Academy. Walking into Yangming Academy is like traveling through time and space, where you can feel the strong academic atmosphere and cultural heritage of the past. The ancient buildings, precious cultural relics, and rich historical materials all tell the stories of the past. Jingju Temple Continue walking from Yangming Academy to Jingju Temple. This temple is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with ancient trees towering around it. When the morning bell and evening drum sound, and the incense smoke rises, you will feel like you are in a dreamlike world. Since the Seventh Patriarch Xingsi practiced in Anyin Mountain and created the "sudden enlightenment" method, this place has become an important center of Buddhism. From Jingju Temple, follow the Qingyuan River upstream. The clear water of Diaoyutai Reservoir is rippling, and boats shuttle back and forth. The surrounding green mountains and clear waters, and the pavilions and towers are scattered, making it a paradise on earth. Now, Qingyuan Mountain Amusement Park has been built here, bringing more joy to tourists. Continue walking, and you can also enjoy attractions such as Muyu Pile, Immortal Writing, Monkey Watching the Moon, Guanyin Sitting on a Lotus, and the beautiful scenery of Youluoping Reservoir. If you don't plan to play in the water, you can skip Jiudie Spring and return directly from Jingju Temple. However, it should be noted that the waterfall scenery of Jiudie Spring is very spectacular. If you have enough time, it is worth a visit. ❤️Tips The choice of sightseeing bus depends on personal needs. It takes about 10 minutes to walk from the entrance of the scenic area to Yangming Academy, and only a few minutes to walk from Yangming Academy to Jingju Temple. The scenery of Qingyuan Mountain is breathtaking. Whether it is the undulating mountains, lush vegetation, or clear streams, it is intoxicating. It is very suitable for weekend trips, allowing you to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, embrace nature, relax, and enjoy a moment of peace and beauty amidst your busy work.
