🌿In early April, I drove to the Fairyland Residence for a visit, and stayed for two nights at the Junlan Resort Hotel nestled in the picturesque 5A scenic area, just 50 meters in a straight line from the north gate of Fairyland Residence. 🧩The hotel is surrounded by mountains and water, with verdant valleys and misty clouds all around. When you look up, you see cliffs and greenery everywhere. This is what they mean by 'celestial mountains and seas of clouds, a human paradise on earth'. 🧩Stepping into the hotel lobby, the receptionist greets you with a beautiful smile, a warm welcome, and quick check-in. She also reminds us that we purchased the Fairyland Residence's main entrance tickets at the hotel for 66 yuan each, which is a lot cheaper than the 110 yuan on-site price, and even the online platforms charge 99 yuan. 🧩Our room was about 25-30 square meters, clean and tidy with good hygiene. The 1.8-meter-wide bed was very comfortable to sleep in. The bathroom had both a bathtub and a shower with plenty of hot water. The toilet was smart, and besides a mini-fridge, there was even a sterilization cabinet in the room. The view from the floor-to-ceiling windows was utterly charming. The mountains outside were misty, and the room was cozy and warm. 🧩The breakfast buffet is from 7 to 9 am, extended by one hour on holidays. The dining room is spacious and bright, very comfortable. Although the breakfast variety is not too rich, it's still quite good, but there are not many Western-style cakes. 🧩The hotel's lobby bar is beautiful, leaning against the floor-to-ceiling windows, enjoying the beautiful view, sipping a cup of fragrant tea, and enjoying a leisurely time, which is very pleasant. 🧩The hotel has many facilities, including an outdoor swimming pool, KTV, chess and card room, billiards, table tennis, and the Lan Spirit Children's Play Center, creating a strong holiday atmosphere. Their RV campsite is very distinctive, with a large courtyard, very luxurious inside, with a large bed in the master bedroom and a bunk bed that can sleep five people. 🧩The Fairyland Residence Junlan Resort Hotel gave us a huge surprise, we really like it here.

Trekking up the South Heaven Summit was a journey of determination & awe-inspiring vistas. The sun painted the world in hues of gold as I stood at the pinnacle, a surreal moment etched forever.

I love hiking and I enjoyed my trip to the Gongyu Village in Zhejiang, China. China is ultimately beautiful and it was an unforgettable experience to explore its hard to get to places. Gongyu Village is also called a hidden village in English because it is really hard to get to. Our group took a private bus from Shanghai and it took approximately 8 hours because we made a mistake of traveling during the Golden Week (1st week of April). Upon arrival there by bus, our group had to hike with all of our belongings on our backs for 2 hours before reaching the Hidden village. When we arrived I couldn’t believe my eyes, there it was, a beautiful and authentic local Chinese village with no sign of modern civilization still standing there in the 21st century. We spent 4 days hiking the surrounding mountains and eating local authentic food cooked by the local villagers. The also supplied us beer and karaoke for the evening entertainment. The accommodation was not good at all, since it was an open room with many people sleeping on hard beds, but it was ok for a few nights. Many people chose to camp outside in tents. Gongyu Village or The Hidden Village is a magical place and you should definitely visit it one day! Enjoy 😊 #passionpassport #china #zhejiang #gooutside #hiking

#mountainview After encountering several reposts of drone shots of the Ruyi bridge on IG, I found out that Unitravel, a travel agency based in Hangzhou, was offering trips to to Shenxianju scenic spot. A bunch of friends and I signed up and we were not disappointed at all! We chose to take the cable car and only walked a bit to find escalators taking us further up. That was something none of us have seen before, definitely not on a mountain! We spotted a nice area with chairs and tables, surrounded by a few shops, where we sat and had our own packed lunches. We crossed two bridges before finally spotting the Ruyi bridge. I went to several glass bridges before and that one was indeed, the most impressive. While following the pathway, you’ll come across shops selling beverages and snacks. Fresh air & mountain views, a great combo for a getaway from the city! We walked in the sun for hours and were too exhausted to descend on foot. We chose to take the cable car again. There was a massive queue and we had to wait for an hour. #mountains#mountaintop#mountainescape#mountaingetaway#zhejiang#bridge#grouptour#travelstories#travelstories

I first spotted this bridge on @beautifuldestinations and immediately added it onto my bucket list. Being the solo traveler that I am; I planned a trip on my own even after noticing that getting there isn’t as efficient. Luckily, the @trip apartment I booked was only 5 minutes walking distance to the scenic area ticket sales office (Shenxianju tourist transfer center). At the scenic area, there’s a cable way option(not free) for people who aren’t necessarily there for hiking but rather the bridge itself or the greenery. After getting off the cable way there’s an outdoor escalator and as soon as you take that step off, that’s when the real hiking begins. Long story short; by the time I got to the bridge I was so exhausted I just took a few pictures, flew my drone and started hiking back to the Cableway. #hiking#nationalpark#urbanexplorer

The movie "King of Kung Fu" is actually taken here. Here is the fairy house, not only the movie "King of Kung Fu" but also Zhang Jizhong's version of "Dragon" is also here. Shenxianju wins the natural scenery and maintains the original mountain scenery. There are mountain bamboo forests and waterfalls. What is even more amazing is that there are the largest volcanic rhyolite landforms in the world, so the cliffs are rich in layers. sense. Shenxianjujing is divided into the south gate and the north gate. Generally, it is a door that enters a door and there is no turning back. You can take a walk from the north and south gates for about an hour and then take the cable car to the top of the mountain. At the top of the mountain, you have to walk 1-2 hours to get to the exit, but the essence of the entire scenic spot is really concentrated in the hilltop area. The propaganda spot of the scenic spot is called Guanyin Peak, and the shape resembles the Nanhai Guanyin with the hands clasped together. However, it is necessary to find the true angle of the angle. If there is a sea of clouds, the scenery is excellent! From the Juxian Valley near the south exit, there is a very shocking cableway bridge called Nantian Bridge, which spans between the two mountains. Although there is no horror in the glass trestle, it is still not dare to look at the two sides. Walk in the scenic spot, you will often see such a signboard, which is to promote the high-altitude sling challenge. Even if you look at the photos, it is a horrifying picture. Similar to the tightrope is usually between the two peaks, and some people still spend The performance of the high jump, and so on, there is a chance to visit.

Route: 10:00 am - Take the cable car (South Cableway). The ride is 5 minutes and the line moves quickly. Descend via the southern hiking trail, finishing around 2:20 pm. The scenery during the descent is beautiful, with birdsong and the gentle murmur of streams. The greenery would be even more stunning in warmer weather. The mountaintop and the foot of the mountain offer contrasting experiences: the summit is bustling, while the base is tranquil. We essentially covered the entire southern route: South Gate > South Cableway > Southern Heavenly Stairs > South Sea Bridge > Lotus Platform > Green Cloud Stairs/One-Line Sky > Crouching Dragon Bridge > Dream Bridge > Bright Mirror Platform > North Sea Platform > Ruyi Bridge > Peach Garden > Painted Screen and Smoke Clouds (Yangmei Manufacturing Bureau loop) > Maiden's Smile > Laojun Platform (a large stone platform offering elevated views) > Buddha's Shadow and Lotus Charm (popular photo spot, expect lines - we skipped it) > (Return to the hiking trail; those not hiking down can take the cable car) > Southern Heavenly Stairs > South Sea Bridge > Southern Hiking Trail > South Gate‼️ If you want a longer hike, you can take the northern loop at the fork, for example, head north from Ruyi Pavilion (Picture 4), but I suspect I wouldn't have had the energy to walk down the mountain if I'd added that loop. ‼️Plan your route and descent point in advance. There are many staff members along the way who are very friendly and helpful; don't hesitate to ask them for directions. Hiking down requires backtracking a section of the path, passing South Sea Bridge and continuing downwards (Picture 8). Start your hike early to avoid the noisy crowds of tour groups. Consider staying at a guesthouse at the foot of the mountain to get an early start. Prices at the small shops are reasonable and regulated. The staff throughout the scenic area are friendly and helpful. The entire area is well-managed, catering especially well to seniors. I saw several people in their seventies and eighties enjoying themselves. After your hike, satisfy your hunger at a local restaurant. Since Xianju High-Speed Rail Station is currently under construction, there are limited shopping options outside the station, with only a convenience store and a bakery inside. The return bus passes Wuyue Plaza (8 km from the high-speed rail station); you can ask the driver if they will stop there. 🔔Helpful Tips ◦ ☕️Food and Drinks: There are several restaurants and snack bars within the scenic area, but prices are relatively high. We recommend bringing your own snacks and water. ◦ ☁️Weather and Clothing👔: Mountain weather is unpredictable, so bring appropriate clothing and rain gear. Check the weather forecast in advance and be prepared. ◦ 🧳Equipment: Wear comfortable athletic shoes for easy walking. Bring a portable charger to keep your electronic devices powered up so you can capture those memorable moments. ◦ 📷Photography: Expect lines at popular photo spots. Plan your time accordingly to avoid delays. ❣️Come to Shenxianju for a romantic rendezvous with nature. Marvel at the breathtaking rock formations, and immerse yourself in the mystical atmosphere as you pursue your own "xianxia" dreams amidst the swirling mists!

“Mountains have mist, mist has wind, mornings have rosy clouds, rosy clouds fill the sky.” From afar, amidst the rolling hills, winds rise and clouds surge, enveloped in a verdant mist, just like a hidden paradise. When you board the cable car and ascend into the clouds, a peaceful, otherworldly paradise unfolds before your eyes. Immersing yourself in this scenery, you'll experience a transcendental tranquility and purity, as if it were a wondrous gift from heaven. 📍Address: Shenxianju Scenic Area, Baita Town, Xianju County, Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province 🚗Transportation: Super convenient! Drive on the expressway and take the "Shenxianju" exit directly to the South Gate. ⏰Opening Hours: Opens at 7:30 am, but please note that entry closes at 3:00 pm. 🎫Tickets: (Remember to purchase online tickets one day in advance) Remember to bring your ID card if purchasing offline.

Hiking hat and sunglasses (also for photos). You can bring mineral water, bread, snacks, and fruit if needed (I didn't bring any). There are also many small shops inside, with typical scenic area prices. There are also shops like HEYTEA and burger joints, so basically, you don't need to bring food. 👍️Must-See Spots: 1. Buddha's Shadow and Lotus Charm: Expect queues on weekends. It's right next to the Nantian Cableway, so prioritize visiting in the morning for good lighting. In the afternoon, you can only capture silhouettes. 2. Nantian Peak "Guanyin Peak x Nantian Peak" - Cloudtop Buddhist Kingdom: The 99-meter-high Guanyin Peak stands majestically. Take the Nantian Cableway directly to the 869-meter mountain peak. The 360° fully transparent glass observation deck is suspended 45 meters in the air, with a sea of clouds churning below like a celestial wonderland. Those who dare to challenge themselves must take a "levitation photo"! (It is recommended to go up the mountain before 10:00 am to avoid cloud cover.) 3. "Ruyi Bridge" - Rainbow Crossing: The world's first double-curved glass bridge! Shaped like a jade Ruyi scepter, it spans the canyon. The upper layer is transparent, and the lower layer is hollowed out. When walking, the mountain wind blows through the bridge. Adventurous friends can try taking overhead shots of the "cloud walk"! At sunset, the bridge reflects golden light, as if stepping into the mythical world of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas." The observation deck is suspended at an altitude of 1,138 meters, so those with a fear of heights should be cautious. 4. Lotus Terrace: Walk through Nantian Bridge and continue on the right for a while to reach it. From above, it really looks like a blooming lotus flower. It's beautiful to watch the sunset here in the evening! Accommodation Recommendations: It is recommended to stay in Baita Town, which is not far from the scenic area and has late-night snacks. Prices are around 200 yuan. It is recommended to check the local weather forecast before your trip and take sun protection and rain gear. 💗Other Tips: Some discounts may require relevant documents. Shenxianju Scenic Area offers visitors an unforgettable travel experience with its magnificent natural landscapes and rich cultural relics. We hope this guide will help you better plan your trip and enjoy a journey of close contact with nature and history.

At 4 AM, I waited for the sunrise at Shenxianju Scenic Area. Life is worth living! "A secret sunrise spot that Zhejiang locals don't dare to reveal, an epic of light hidden in the sea of clouds" At 4 AM, I walked towards Guanyin Peak with a flashlight in hand. The mountain wind stirred the pines, the stone steps under my feet gleamed with dew, and the entire Kuocang Mountain Range resembled a dormant beast. Until the first golden ray cracked the horizon. ▫️5:12 AM Glazed Fire The indigo sky was suddenly pierced, and the clouds resembled an overturned gilded cup. Morning mist condensed into a veil at an altitude of 1,300 meters, the silhouette of Guanyin Peak was gilded with a halo, and the opposite Zhanqi Peak was ablaze with rosy dawn—it turns out that when Li Bai wrote "clothed in rainbow clouds, riding the wind as my steed," this was the scene before his eyes. ▪️5:27 AM Immortals Crossing the Sea When the first ray of light pierced the Lotus Platform, the entire sea of clouds began to churn. The morning light raced across the Nantian Peak glass walkway, swept past the birds by Wenxian Bridge, and awakened the slumbering General Rock. At this moment, I finally understood why Xu Xiake visited this place three times and was still reluctant to leave. ▫️5:49 AM All Things Reborn Sunlight spilled over the Shiyi Xie Waterfall, and the mountain mist transformed into golden streams, meandering between the Five Finger Peaks. The aroma of latte wafted from the cliffside café, and young people on the walkway raised their gimbals. I saw fragments of light dancing on their eyelashes. [📸 Secret Sunrise Spots] 1️⃣ Lotus Platform: A suspended glass platform, stand on the clouds at sunrise. 2️⃣ Nantian Peak: A 99-meter suspended rope bridge, capture the moment when the light cascades down. 3️⃣ Buddha's Shadow and Lotus Charm: Wait between 5:15-5:20 AM to capture the Buddha's halo and the sea of clouds in the same frame.

The ancient town of Potan, with its thousand-year-old streets, is also worth a visit.

Shenxianju is also known as "Tianmu Mountain" (pronounced mu'). Li Bai's "Dreaming of Wandering on Tianmu Mountain and Chanting a Farewell Poem" describes this mountain. The main peak, Daqinggang, has an altitude of 1,271 meters and is the largest volcanic rhyolite landform cluster in the world. The rocks here are of various shapes and colors. The wonders of nature and human ingenuity have created countless breathtakingly beautiful pictures. Shenxianju uses cable cars 🚡, escalators, and various mountain bridges to make it easier for people to enjoy the beautiful scenery on the top of the mountain ⛰️. ​

As the morning mist drifted over the verdant mountains, I stepped into Shenxianju, draped in a light, flowing Hanfu robe. This hidden gem, hailed by Xu Xiake as the "City of Smoke and Clouds," features eight suspended walkways that weave through the landscape like ribbons of ink and wash paintings, resembling jade belts casually tossed by celestial beings, winding around the majestic cliffs. Ascending swiftly on the nation's first mountainside elevator, the hundred-meter drop of the cliff rapidly receded behind me as my robe billowed. Stepping out of the elevator, the Nantian Peak observation deck greeted me with a breathtaking 270-degree panorama. The sea of clouds churned beneath my feet, and Guanyin Peak emerged faintly in the morning light, resembling a Bodhisattva holding a pure water bottle, gazing down upon the world. Arriving at Foying Lianyuan, the nine-tiered lotus pond reflected the ancient temple. Standing at the corner of the corridor, with my wide sleeves swaying gently, I couldn't distinguish whether I was in a painting or the painting moved with me. The streamlined Ruyi Bridge appeared and disappeared in the sea of clouds, its three interwoven steel cables resembling a coiling dragon. Reaching the center of the bridge, the mountain wind lifted my robe, and I seemed to hear the faint chime of ancient jade pendants. Walking towards Wolong Bridge, the atmosphere shifted. The bridge, naturally formed from stone, blended seamlessly with the surrounding pines and cypresses. In the misty rain, strolling across with an oil-paper umbrella felt like walking through a Song Dynasty landscape scroll. The most stunning sight was the Lotus Terrace. As dusk painted the skyline, standing on the lotus petal-shaped viewing platform, I watched the sunset gild the edges of Guanyin Peak. My robe, billowing in the mountain wind, resembled a blooming lotus. The distant temple bells echoed, and the click of the camera shutter captured not just images, but a poetic dialogue spanning millennia. Looking back as I descended, the peaks transformed into silhouettes of varying depths in the twilight. The mountains and rivers of Shenxianju never speak, yet they allow every traveler who arrives amidst the clouds to touch the soul of Chinese aesthetics in the moment their Hanfu robes flutter. This is not merely a scenic theater, but a flowing feast of Eastern aesthetics, inviting one to lose oneself in the poetry of the clouds, mountains, and mist. Travel tips: Hanfu rentals are available at the scenic area. Light-colored clothing is recommended for better photos. Foying Lianyuan and Lotus Terrace offer the best lighting at dawn and dusk. The mountain elevator saves energy and allows for easy access to the summit.

The South Zenith is mainly composed of a suspended glass observation deck, with an altitude of 869 meters. The tower is 30 meters high, cantilevered 45 meters, and suspended 400 meters in the air. The glass plank road is pretty good. Standing on the observation deck, you can overlook the magnificent scenery of the entire Shenxianju Scenic Area: forest peaks and rocks, canyon streams, etc. Internet celebrity check-in spot: There are too many people at the worship platform, so I won’t join in the fun. ⚠️The view from the South Zenith is quite good. You need to buy a ticket, which costs 80 yuan. The cafe is also good, but the coffee is a bit expensive, 45 yuan for a cup of Americano☕️. I rested for nearly an hour and looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window. It was quite comfortable.
