Guizhou Xingyi 'Jilong Castle' offers free photography and is incredibly beautiful. 'Jilong Castle' is the only castle in the heart of a lake in China, known as the Chinese version of 'Swan Castle'. It is a European-style building built on a rock island in Wanfeng Lake. The castle, which is stunningly beautiful, is located in the 'Wanfeng Forest' scenic area. The entrance fee is 60 yuan. Many comments say that the internal development is poor and the scenic area is uninteresting. To go to the castle, you need to buy a boat ticket separately, so we found a free route! Self-driving guide Coordinates: Jilong Castle Resort, Xingyi City, Guizhou Province Navigation: Hongchun Village, Xingyi City Follow the village road and keep going along the cement road. There are several parking spots along the way. At the first parking spot, you can only see part of the castle, but you can see the whole lake. Drive a little further and there is a parking spot where you need to climb some rocks! Be sure to pay attention to safety. At the end of the cement road, turn left up the mountain. There is a dirt road. Drive a few hundred meters along the lake and you can find several shooting spots. On the opposite bank of Jilong Castle, there is a large area of strange rocks on the lakeshore, which is very shocking whether it is cloudy or sunny. Tips 1. Be careful when walking in the reef area on the shore. 2. Be extra careful when using drones, as signal interference can easily cause crashes. 3. The lights are very dreamy after 7 pm, as if you are in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. 4. Try to wear plain clothes, the photos will look better.
