We visited Jinsi Gorge Scenic Area and were absolutely blown away by its stunning natural beauty! 🏞️✨ The crystal-clear waters, towering cliffs, and lush forests made it feel like a hidden paradise. Walking along the wooden walkways by the river was a peaceful and refreshing experience. The best time to visit is in the morning when the sunlight filters through the trees, creating a dreamy atmosphere. Be sure to take a photo at the suspended glass bridge—the view from there is breathtaking! 📸 📍Address: Jinsi Gorge Scenic Area, Feng County, Baoji City, Shaanxi Province We explored Tianchi Lake and fell in love with its serene and picturesque scenery! 🌊🌿 Surrounded by rolling green hills, this tranquil lake is perfect for a relaxing escape. Taking a boat ride on the water gave us the best views of the surrounding landscape. Sunset is the ideal time for photos, as the golden glow over the lake makes everything look magical. Don’t miss capturing a shot from the viewing platform overlooking the lake—it’s the perfect backdrop! 📷 📍Address: Tianchi Lake, Feng County, Baoji City, Shaanxi Province We would recommend Phoenix Hot Springs for the ultimate relaxation experience! ♨️🏔️ Nestled in the mountains, these natural hot springs are the perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring. The best time to visit is in the evening when the steam rising from the pools creates a peaceful and dreamy atmosphere. A photo at the outdoor hot spring pools with the misty mountains in the background is a must-have memory! 📸 📍Address: Phoenix Hot Springs, Feng County, Baoji City, Shaanxi Province #discoverchina #vacation #travel

You can prepare a snow clip yourself, and the snowball you clip is very photogenic! 🍚: Because I saw someone say that the food in Tofu Village is average, I went directly to the farmyard at the foot of the mountain (it should be the only one open), run by an uncle. My husband and I thought the taste was quite good, and the price was also very affordable. After eating, we walked a few steps to the train station and took the train back directly. Suggestions: ①: The weather has been warm recently, and there is not much snow on the mountain. You can go again after a while. ②: There is no toilet on the mountain, so try not to drink water. ③: Wear non-slip and waterproof shoes (my snow boots were wet and cold, you can buy crampons, which are very useful!) ④: Wear brightly colored hats, scarves, and gloves, which are very photogenic. ❗️❗️❗️Finally, I would like to ask weakly if any sisters found my sunglasses today, which fell off when I was taking pictures with them hanging on my bag.

👍 Recommended reason: Xiaozai Temple in Feng County is an ancient grotto temple embedded in the cliff of Douji Mountain in the Qinling Mountains. It was built in the Northern Wei Dynasty and flourished in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It is said that Zhang Guolao, one of the Eight Immortals, once lived here in seclusion. The temple was named "Xiaozai Temple" because Emperor Xuanzong of Tang prayed here to avoid the An Lushan Rebellion and his prayers were answered. The name of the temple is very auspicious, and you can come here to pray for blessings and safety for yourself and your family.🙏🏻 📍 Address: Xiaozai Temple is located in Fengzhou Village, Fengzhou Town, Feng County, Baoji City. Due to its remote location, there are not many tourists even during holidays. 🚙 Self-driving: There is a large parking lot at the entrance, and parking is free. 🎫 Tickets: Peak season (March–November): CNY 45/person; off-season (December–February): CNY 27/person ⏱️ Opening hours: Peak season: 8:00–17:30; off-season: 8:30–17:00 👣 Tour time: Climbing the mountain takes some time and energy, and the whole journey takes about 3–4 hours. Tips📝: 1⃣️ The new temple at the foot of the mountain is not open. The old temple is on the mountain. There are two paths up the mountain. One leads to the rock with the words "Xiaozai Temple" on it, and the other goes up from the Yaoshi Hall, which takes about an hour one way. 2⃣️ There are many Buddha statues in the ancient temple on the mountain, and you can burn incense and pray for blessings. However, there is no incense or food for sale in the scenic area. You can either bring your own incense and offerings or buy them at the only small shop outside the scenic area, where the prices are reasonable. 3⃣️ There are snakes on the mountain, so don't walk on paths that are not marked. You may see shed snake skins on the roadside, so be careful. 4⃣️ In addition to the old temple on the mountain, you can also visit and pray at the Yaoshi Hall, the Bell and Drum Tower (where you can ring the bell), and the Eighty-eight Buddhas.

Autumn in Liuba, Shaanxi is like a painting, and the most famous scenic spot in Liuba, Cypress Mountain, is even more colorful and beautiful. Cypress Mountain is part of the Qinling Mountains. It is famous for its beautiful natural scenery and magnificent autumn scenery. In autumn, the mountains and forests of Cypress Mountain are decorated with red, yellow, green, and other colors, forming a series of gorgeous paintings. The red and yellow leaves are especially beautiful, like a palette of colors. The above photos were taken along the road from the entrance of Cypress Mountain to the cableway, less than 1,000 meters away. Countless tourists are attracted by the colorful scenery along the way as soon as they enter the scenic area. Everyone took out their cameras to capture these beautiful moments.

Upon arriving in Feng County, one naturally wants to visit Lingguan Gorge. The motivation comes from Du Pengcheng's novel 'A Night Walk Through Lingguan Gorge'. Lingguan Gorge is located 5km off National Highway 316 in Caodian Village, southwest of Feng County, at the border of Shaanxi and Gansu provinces. It is the first gorge on the Jialing River. The Baoji-Chengdu Railway snakes through it, with ancient paths hidden deep in the wild grass and shrubs. The Jialing River flows quietly, a bay of clear water reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, and the vegetation on the high mountains on both sides is dyed with the deep autumn colors, presenting a splendid and colorful scene that is breathtakingly beautiful. According to historical research, the poet Du Fu passed through here on his way from Chang'an to Sichuan. Of course, he must not have been in the mood for sightseeing. Thanks to the Baoji-Chengdu Railway and 'A Night Walk Through Lingguan Gorge', Lingguan Gorge has been endowed with some modern industrial civilization. It is currently operated as a 3A scenic area, with the themes of 'railway heritage, leisure oxygen bar, and ancient Qiang culture'. Driving to the entrance of the scenic area, one is greeted by a desolate and lonely scene, with few visitors entering. Almost everyone chooses to stroll along the riverside road without prior arrangement. The gorge extends into the depths of the Qinling Mountains along the river, and as far as the eye can see, it is a riot of colors. The Lingguan Gorge in autumn is like a richly colored oil painting displayed before our eyes. Please follow my pictures and savor it slowly.
