[2025 Taoyuan Attraction] Travel Guide for Tao Hua Yuan (Updated Jun)

On the shore of Surabaya, under the Wuling Mountain, there is a fascinating paradise on earth, which is the prototype of Taohuayuan in Taohuayuan. For Tao Yuanming's ideal society, it is not an exaggeration to use any beautiful words. Corresponding to the reality of the peach blossom source, "source, shape, soul, environment, table, gas" fusion display, swallow Dongting Lake color, Naxiang West Lingxiu, Mu Wuxi Qizhao, Wuling scenery, like a beautiful beauty The scrolls make people linger. For thousands of years, countless scholars and priests have come to the fore, leaving a large number of poetry and poetry, gradually forming a diverse cultural ecology such as Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, and so on. The fifteen-day heaven, the forty-sixth blessed land. Perhaps, the real peach blossom source only exists in the imagination, but as long as you are willing to believe, you can become a paradise everywhere, the beauty of Rongshanchuan, the beauty of the heavens and the earth!

Qinxi, also known as Shui Xi, is an important tributary of the Yuan River. Legend has it that this is the only way for Wuling fishermen to enter the Peach Blossom Garden, that is, "following the stream, forgetting the distance." The Taohuayuan 5A Scenic Area is mainly divided into two mountains and one lake, and the Qin Valley tour has two main lines. Qinxi does not exist as an independent scenic spot. However, Qinxi gave me two surprises during this short three-day trip to Taohuayuan! At night, the Qinxi Wuliu Pier was crowded with people, and 12 flower boats were waiting to depart, starting the immersive real-life performance tour of "Peach Blossom Spring" by boat. The flower boats are arranged in two orderly rows, traveling quickly in the stream. The sky is getting dark, and the banks are hazy, only the lights on the bow of the boat are shining, and the boatmen and boat girls tell stories and sing loudly from time to time. Passing the Peach Blossom Bridge, the fishermen in the stream "cast their nets to fish", and the performance begins. In an instant, the lights on both sides of the bank light up. As the boat travels, the performances of "Cowherd's Flute", "Washing Clothes Duet", "Farming Scroll", "Village Night Talk", "Water Wedding", "Private School Children's Fun", "Forest Spring Bathing" and "Falling Flowers" are slowly displayed. Here are bright lights and rising mist; there are folk songs and recitations; there is labor and play; there are cows mooing, sheep bleating, dogs barking, and ducks quacking; there are actors performing to their heart's content, and tourists interacting. For a time, I was so immersed in it that I didn't know why. As the rain of flowers sprinkled all over the sky, the performance ended. It is true that: people are sitting in the boat, and the boat is swimming in the painting. The interest is still strong, and the love remains in the heart. The next day, take a boat to the Tangshi Bridge Pier on the Qin Valley tour line, and relive part of yesterday's route, but what you see is another surprise! Maybe it's Monday, there are not many tourists, which is equivalent to chartering a boat for two people [Joyful]. The boat travels slowly, no longer speeding, the stream is slow, the banks are green, the scene seems to be frozen, and the reflection in the stream is occasionally brushed by ripples, like a bird flying out of the forest, and the birdsong breaks the silence. The performance place, the people have left, but the scenery is still there. Recalling the children skipping class and entering the water naked; in the ""Night Talk", the tourists answered in unison "We are outsiders", with different accents; there is still bathing in the forest, oh, the memory remains. Go ashore and start the Qin Valley tour. Qinxi, one word, green; one word, beautiful, buy one get one free; one word, quiet, buy one get two free!

Changde Peach Blossom Spring| Finally arrived at the fairyland in Tao Yuanming's writing. Changde is a popular tourist destination in Hunan. The Peach Blossom Spring is about 50km away from Changde city, about 1 hour by car, and it is a 5A scenic spot. The Peach Blossom Spring in Tao Yuanming's writing suddenly appeared vividly before my eyes. Admiring the literary talent and wisdom of the ancients, when I saw such beautiful scenery, I could only say 'it's so beautiful', but Tao Yuanming was able to depict this scene vividly in just a hundred words, timeless and undiminished, while also incorporating his own inner spiritual world. However, in this season, I did not see the 'fragrant grass and colorful fallen petals' of the peach blossom forest. Instead, there were fragrant osmanthus and chrysanthemums everywhere. On the Five Willow Lake, there were a few flat boats, with fishermen holding double oars, and a few birds standing on the boat. Although the 'Nanshan' in 'Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan' is Lushan, here, in order to commemorate him, Taoshan was also built into such a leisurely environment. Walking into the deep mountains, there were almost no people, breathing in the natural oxygen bar, it was too comfortable. My parents kept complaining, why there are no people in this 5A scenic spot even during the National Day. I retorted, isn't it good that there are no people, enjoying the beautiful scenery alone. The Yuanming Temple on the mountain records the life of Tao Yuanming, who refused to bow for five pecks of rice and resigned several times, chose to 'lie flat' in an environment where he could not realize his ambitions. From today's perspective, this spirit is really worth learning, he is truly the pioneer of anti-involution. In the end, he lived to be 62, which was already a long life at that time. Living happily and long, what else can one ask for. After wandering around the scenic spot for three hours, I really felt calm and content, and all my troubles disappeared. It's so beautiful~

I passed by Peach Blossom Land on September 7th, and for half a day, I was a person from Wuling, looking for the old residence of the Qin people, which has now become a series of shops. Only the newly renovated Yuanming Shrine and Peach Blossom Pavilion still retain the ancient charm. The 'Peach Blossom Land' from a thousand years ago has finally shown its infinite commercial value. If Tao Gong knew about this in the underworld, he would probably be dumbfounded. The weather was sultry, and my thin shirt was soaked in sweat.

Changde is also a popular tourist destination in Hunan. Peach Blossom Spring is about 50km away from Changde city and about 1 hour's drive away. The Peach Blossom Spring described by Tao Yuanming, a 5A-level scenic spot, suddenly and vividly appears before your eyes. I marvel at the literary talent and wisdom of the ancients. When I see such a beautiful scenery, I can only say "It's so beautiful". However, Tao Yuanming was able to describe this scene vividly in just a hundred words, and at the same time integrated it into his own spiritual world deep in his heart. However, there is no peach blossom forest with "fresh grass and colorful fallen petals" in this season. Instead, the golden osmanthus is fragrant and chrysanthemums are everywhere. There are several small boats on the lake, and fishermen are paddling to catch fish. Although the Nanshan Mountain mentioned in "Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing the Nanshan Mountain" is Lushan Mountain, Taoshan has also been built into such a leisurely environment in order to commemorate him. Walking into the deep mountains, there is almost no one, and breathing in the natural oxygen is so comfortable. There is no one in such a beautiful 5A scenic spot. It must be so comfortable to enjoy the beautiful scenery alone! The Yuanming Temple on the mountain records the life of Tao Yuanming. He refused to bow to the temptation of money and resigned from his official position several times. When he was unable to realize his ambitions, he chose to "lie down." This spirit is really worth learning and is the originator of anti-involution. In the end, he lived to be 62, which was considered a long life at that time. Live happily and live long, what more could you ask for? After visiting the scenic area, I felt really calm and relaxed, and all my worries disappeared. It’s so beautiful!

The Peach Blossom Spring in Changde is the authentic Peach Blossom Spring described by Tao Yuanming in his novel Peach Blossom Spring during the Eastern Jin Dynasty in China more than 1,600 years ago. It was first built in the Jin Dynasty. Historically, it is one of the four major Taoist holy sites in my country. It is known as "Thirty-five Caves in Heaven and Forty-six Blessed Places". For thousands of years, literati such as Tao Yuanming, Meng Haoran, Wang Changling, Wang Wei, Li Bai, Du Mu, Liu Yuxi, Han Yu, Lu You and Su Shi have left precious poems and calligraphy here. In front of Taohuayuan is the surging Yuan River, and in the distance are the rolling Wuling Peaks. There are towering centuries-old trees and clear streams here. Taohuayuan Scenic Area has developed four major scenic areas: Taohua Mountain in Fudi Cave, Taoyuan Mountain, a Taoist resort, Qinren Village in Utopia, and the birthplace of the legendary Taoxianling; there are also Yuanjiang Scenic Area, the ruins of Cailing City in the Warring States Period, and Hot Stone Hot Spring for sightseeing. The Taohuayuan Scenic Area holds the "Peach Blossom Festival" every spring. In spring, peach blossoms are everywhere, green and red. Walking into the Peach Blossom Spring is like stumbling upon a beautiful painting. Visitors who come here at this time can feel the tranquil rural scenery and look for the artistic conception of "lovely fragrant grass and colorful fallen flowers" described in "Peach Blossom Spring".

#See the Earth in an instant Taohuayuan Scenic Area is located in Taoyuan County, Changde City, Hunan Province. "In Taiyuan of the Jin Dynasty, people from Wuling made a living by fishing..." The "Wuling" mentioned in Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Spring is the ancient name of Changde City in Hunan Province today. Therefore, the purpose of creating the scenic spot is to restore the paradise of Changde in everyone’s mind. Transportation to the scenic area is quite convenient. There are tourist buses running between the city and the scenic area. It is quite convenient for people living near Changde to come and visit.

Coming to Taohuayuan, along a tunnel built about 500 meters long in Taikoo Cave, it enters a wide cave. Various forms of stalactites come into the eyes. Under the illumination of the lights, I feel a visual feast~ Through the cave, it is the paradise of Tao Yuanming's pen, and the beautiful scenery of the beautiful scenery makes people intoxicated. Its really fun to wear a Chinese dress and experience it once.
