Shandong Underground Grand Canyon
Did you freeze in winter? Then come to the underground Grand Canyon of Lishui, and keep the ambient temperature of 20 degrees all year round, very pleasant. In the underground Grand Canyon, the lights are flashing, the stream is flowing, the shape of the stalactites on both sides of the stone wall is strange and varied, and with the fascinating light, the whole cave is eccentric, and it feels like entering a fairyland. When you float in the stream, people are in the middle of the painting. The cave is really a mysterious adventure.

The Unconventional Journey to Linyi's Underground Grand Canyon and the Firefly Cave
A Glimpse of Disappointment in Depth - The Unconventional Journey to Linyi's Underground Grand Canyon and the Firefly Cave
I must admit, the visit to the Underground Grand Canyon and the Firefly Cave weighed heavily on my soul, compelling me to express my turbulent emotions. The so-called natural wonders and fairyland on earth left me with nothing but a sense of helpless head-shaking.
Underground Grand Canyon The name of the Underground Grand Canyon is magnificent, yet the reality is so incongruous. Upon entry, you're immediately forced to buy a combo ticket, with the price tag mercilessly inflated, and the subsequent 'Little Flying Dragon' adds new scars to the already hefty ticket cost. Is this a tour or another form of exploitation? Not far into the journey, you're recommended to take a rafting trip, which I assumed was included in the ticket, only to find it's a separate transaction. If you don't comply, even finding your way out can be confusing.
Firefly Cave The Firefly Cave, once anticipated for its romantic moments, turns out to be a letdown. The attractions are far apart, with inconvenient transportation, leaving one exhausted and half-hearted. The so-called firefly cave, with its sparse lighting, resembles the lonely stars in the night sky, far different from the twinkling stars I had imagined.
Here's a detailed guide, hoping that future visitors won't follow in my footsteps of regret:
1. Ticket budget: The total cost of the combo ticket and additional activities should not exceed 300 yuan, and be wary of extra charges.
2. Transportation: Self-driving tourists can flexibly arrange their schedule, while other visitors should consider the convenience of round-trip transportation.
3. Sightseeing options: Participate in rafting and other activities at your discretion, but assess their value for money.
4. Firefly experience: Avoid buying irrelevant souvenirs and adjust your expectations to prevent disappointment.
Shandong, your underground wonders are natural treasures bestowed by Mother Nature, yet the excessive commercialization has stripped these treasures of their original luster. Lin Huiyin once said, 'Falling in love with a city may be for a person, or for the lush mountains and waters.' Now, as I try to fall in love with this land, all I see is a thick commercial haze, obscuring the pure beauty of nature.
A move to save a boring weekend! Linyi Grand Canyon, a new choice for parent-child travel!
Driving from Lianyungang to Linyi only takes 2 hours, and you can take your kids on a textbook-like cave exploration adventure! 🚗🏞
The first stop, Linyi Underground Grand Canyon, buy tickets online in advance, scan the code directly to enter, saving time and effort! 🎫💰 At the entrance, between the little dragon and the sightseeing car, I chose the latter, which is super cost-effective, no need to queue, straight to the cave entrance! 🚌💨
Known as 'China's number one underground river drifting cave', the 60 yuan drifting experience is free for children, the whole journey is 1000 meters, and you hardly get wet, a four to five minutes drift, the kids are as excited as if they've discovered a new continent! 🌊👧
There's no food sold in the cave, remember to bring your own snacks! After a 2-hour tour, the karst landscape is breathtaking, and the kids can't stop sharing their geographical knowledge with me, this trip is truly worthwhile! 📚🌟
The second stop, the Firefly Cave, although the winter experience may not be as good as in summer, it is still worth a visit. 🔦🌌 The sightseeing car at the entrance takes you to the disc waterfall in 5 minutes, followed by a long walk. The outdoor drifting goes straight to the cave entrance, although it's not as thrilling as the Grand Canyon, it's exciting enough for the kids.
Inside the Firefly Cave, although the lights above look more like lamps, this sense of mystery also fills the kids with curiosity about nature. After a 3-hour tour, although the sightseeing car at the exit charges a fee, the experience is definitely worth it!
Finally, the fried chicken shop in Linyi, although I didn't have time to taste it, I heard it's absolutely delicious! 🍗😋 If you've tried it, be sure to tell me in the comments section!
Rainbow Town is the Datang Everbright City for the people of Linyi
The entire scenic area covers Rainbow Town, Rainbow Valley, Lover's Valley, Happy Valley, and Combat Valley.
Within the scenic area, the must-visit spot is definitely Rainbow Valley! Surrounded by rainbows overhead and the babbling streams underfoot, it feels like being in the water towns of the south, this is the southern charm for the northerners
Spring outings to the snow mountains, joyfully celebrating the flower festival: a feast of flowers to welcome the spring and go for a green outing
In this spring season, climb mountains and tour with family, admire the dazzling sea of flowers. There is also rainbow rafting, with a total length of one thousand eight hundred meters and a drop of nearly one hundred meters, which allows you to enjoy the scenery along the way during the rafting process, and experience the speed and passion, the heartbeat and screams!!
Rainbow Town (also known as Rainbow Everbright City), here you can find the night view of Rainbow Town, live performances, and special snacks. It's somewhat similar to a night market, with a variety of snacks, integrating eating, accommodation, travel, entertainment, and shopping in one place, and also features the characteristics of Yimeng, with a very beautiful night view, really suitable for taking photos and checking in
It should be noted that Rainbow Town and Rainbow Valley are closely adjacent, and you must pass through Rainbow Town to reach Rainbow Valley. Rainbow Town at night with the lights on is super beautiful, just like the Datang Everbright City! Rainbow Town mainly consists of shops, with the riverside divided into upper and lower levels, small bridges, flowing water, boating... It has quite a bit of the charm of the water towns of the south. Immersed in it, you can experience the hustle and bustle of the Everbright City, watch a different kind of immersive performance, and taste special snacks from all over the country.
Escape the May Day holiday and experience the tranquility of the mountains
Every May Day holiday is a peak travel period. Watching the news at home, everywhere is congested, packed with people. So I decided to take leave and travel during off-peak times, driving to Linyi's Rainbow Town for a visit~~ Because it avoids the holiday, there are indeed very few people, but not many shops are open, which adds to the quiet and comfort. Bought a pass and took the kids to play, didn't expect the scenic area to be very large, from the quaint entrance to the various entertainment facilities on the mountain top. Since there are other itineraries, there are many places we didn't get to play. Among them, Rainbow Valley is very suitable for children to play and let them see the rare rainbow. In short, it is a place quite suitable for family trips, and the night view at night might be even more beautiful~~

Do you know the 'Little Jiangnan' in Shandong?
Shandong 'Little Jiangnan' | Seeking a poetic dwelling in the mountains
I recommend the Yimishanju Tourist Resort in Shandong Province, a national 3A-level tourist attraction, where you can feel the charm of Jiangnan waters.
Location: Yimishanju Tourist Resort, Yidongtou Town, Yishui County, Linyi City, Shandong Province
Yidongtou Town has been rated as 'Beautiful and Livable Small Town of Shandong Province' and is also a key tourist town being developed. There are many attractions in the town, and Yimishanju is another new tourist project in the town, which will be developed into a pastoral complex in the future.
Yimishanju is surrounded by green mountains on three sides, with a lake at the center, and the buildings appear to float on the water. It presents a picture of an ancient Jiangnan village with 'a lake in front of the house, reflections in the lake, and fish in the reflections,' making it very suitable for family vacations.
The resort has hotel standard rooms and homestays, and both accommodation and dining are affordable. Inside an ancient building on the lake in the scenic area, tea, ice cream, and other cold drinks are provided for a fee, and you can enjoy the tea and the view by the window.
During holidays, there are often luxury camping activities that you can participate in.
Located in Linyi, Shandong, the ancient town is perfect for taking photos and checking in
🏨 Linyi Yimeng Rainbow Town
🌟 Highlights:
Yimeng Rainbow Town, located in Yishui County of Linyi City, is a free attraction. The town has an ancient charm, with flowing water and family homes. When night falls and the lights come on, it presents the most beautiful scenery.
❤ Recommended Reason:
It is said that various plaques and wooden buildings in the town were purchased at high prices from the south and transported to Yishui for assembly. Such exquisite architectural landscapes are free of charge except on holidays. It would be a loss not to visit!
On both sides of the river, there are various shops where you can experience Yishui folk customs, rent ancient costumes, enjoy snacks to fill your stomach, and reminisce about childhood snacks and toys.
👍 Most Recommended:
Wandering around until after nine in the evening, many shops had already closed, and the bluestone alleys were very peaceful, with only the sound of running water in the stone channels on the road. The Rainbow Town without people is even more breathtaking.
If you have the chance, for those who want to take wedding photos or Hanfu pictures, or for those who don't have enough time to visit Suzhou and Hangzhou, this place will definitely meet your needs for photo-taking and sightseeing.
In this low-key small town in Shandong, you can see the ever-bright city of the Tang Dynasty
Travelers are always looking for less crowded places, and I recommend this unassuming little town in Shandong, it's a real gem.
🌈National tide folk music, Chinese style dance, royal parade, popular photo spot... Immerse yourself in the experience of 'traveling in a painting'.
🌈Rainbow Valley 'See the rainbow in the serene valley on a sunny day', like a person as a rainbow🌈, everyone here can see a rainbow.
🌈The romantic and cozy Lover's Valley, the 'Leap Over the Rainbow' grass sliding project, and the fun-filled rainbow rafting... you can play all day long.
🌈At night, the immersive interactive performance 'Splendid Tang Dynasty, Romance of the Rainbow' on the eleventh takes you back a thousand years to the Tang Dynasty
(9.29-10.6). The grand water screen show, cool sound, light and electricity technology, combined with live-action performance, showcases the 'Chinese-style romance' of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
🌈There is also the national-level intangible cultural heritage performance 'Iron Flower', which is very impressive!
🌈During the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, the host of the Shandong Variety Travel Group will also host activities in the Rainbow Town, with live broadcasting throughout, meeting the rainbow and meeting you, dreaming back to the Tang Dynasty a thousand years ago, and joining the bustling event!
🏨At night, you can stay at the Mo Shang Qing Ya Hotel, which is built in the Huizhou architectural style and themed around the 'Song Flowers' from the 'Eight Elegances' culture of the Two Song Dynasties, full of ancient charm and style.
📍Address: Yishui Xueshan Rainbow Valley, Linyi, Shandong
Want to experience the marvels of nature's craftsmanship? This is the place to be
Decided to go to Linyi, Shandong for the holidays, with the intention of avoiding popular tourist spots for a relaxed time walking with the kids, sightseeing, and enjoying good food. Unexpectedly, I still ended up at a 5A-rated tourist spot, haha.
Since I was there, I might as well fully experience this controversial online destination and then summarize it for everyone.
First, the conclusion: the Underground Grand Canyon and the subsequent Firefly Cave are attractions that require a lot of physical strength. Both areas are particularly large, and if you plan to walk the entire way, the Grand Canyon alone has an estimated 4-kilometer loop with no restrooms in between.
If you have the stamina and want to see the underground cave scenery, don't hesitate, just book your ticket and go.
Now for the details, the management of the scenic area has really put in the effort this year
1️⃣🚗🅿️ Parking is managed from the start, quite orderly, and charged per visit, ten yuan each time. Just that if you arrive late, you'll have to park further away and walk up the hill.
2️⃣ This year, electronic tickets no longer need to be exchanged for paper ones, you can directly scan the QR code to enter the scenic area.
3️⃣ The scenic area has affordable convenience stores, which I've tried and can confirm are reasonably priced. If needed, go there to buy, and avoid the roadside stalls.
4️⃣ For the scenery inside the cave, you can refer to the pictures I took from image 3 to image 13. As for the flow of visitors, refer to image 14, it's basically quite easy to walk around.
Some small tips for the trip:
1️⃣ Regarding the 'Little Dragon' from the bottom of the mountain to the cave entrance, personally, I don't think it's necessary to ride it. It's expensive (30 yuan) and has long queues. Although the scenic area highly recommends it, don't believe their claim of a 3000-meter mountain path, it's actually about 1.5 kilometers. If you really don't want to walk, there's also a sightseeing car later on, with no queues and only costs 10 yuan, haha.
2️⃣ Regarding the cave rafting, if you want to experience the thrill, go for it. If not, there's no need to spend 60 yuan per person for it. Walking is also quite fast.
3️⃣ Half a day is enough for the visit, any more is unnecessary as there's not much else to do, and there's virtually no dining on the mountain.
Alright, that's a lot of rambling, looking forward to everyone having new experiences during the holidays

Traveling through a thousand years, I dream back to the Spring and Autumn period
The celestial Wangcheng, the foremost Jiugou in Yimeng.
The Wangcheng scenic area is located 40 kilometers northwest of Yishui County, Linyi City, Shandong Province, with the main part of the scenic area distributed on Ji Wanggou. It is a national AAAA-level scenic spot and one of the top ten cultural industry projects in Shandong.
Legend has it that more than two thousand years ago, in 256 BC, King Nan of Zhou, the last king of the Zhou dynasty, Ji Yan, was captured by the Qin state, and the Zhou kingdom was destroyed. After the country was broken and the family was ruined, Ji Zhao, who was 42 years old, led the remnants of less than a hundred people to flee northward, coming to Ji Wanggou, which was called Xi Dagou at the time. Taking advantage of the dangerous geography and dense forests of Ji Wanggou, he defended against enemies and reorganized his forces. He entrenched himself on Ji Wanggou for 26 years, building the Jinluan Hall, but ultimately died of depression due to the overwhelming power of the enemy. Therefore, the locals also call Ji Wanggou 'Ji Wanggou'.
At the top of the cliff, enjoy the competing beauty of the Yimeng group of Jiugou;
Large-scale horse warfare, interpreting the struggle for supremacy among the lords of the Spring and Autumn period;
Underground ice palace, witnessing the magic of the ice and snow fairy tale;
Celestial homes, exploring the thousand-year-old stone tribe;
Country games, experiencing the joy of simple leisure.
Aerial cableway, fully appreciating the magnificent terraced fields of Yimeng.

Snow Mountain Rainbow Valley is the core of rainbow culture
The Rainbow Valley is the main landscape of the entire scenic spot. It is the use of artificial rainfall to reflect the sun and create a beautiful view of the rainbow. People walking in the valley, every time they look up to meet the rainbow, it is a very happy thing.
I can feel the goodness when I am there. Surrounded by rainbows on the head, the stream under the feet is flowing, one step at a time, the valley is not heavy. Because of this gorgeous color, the entire valley is dreamy.
People walking down the Rainbow Bridge, like crossing the time and space, into the ethereal dream. In addition to the rolling hills in the distance, the infinitely extended green, this wonderful encounter is like a destiny.
In the snowy mountain rainbow valley scenic area of Surabaya, there is a very dreamy fog bamboo forest, which is a scene that you should not miss in the scenic area.
This "fog" will automatically eject every tens of seconds, the mist is misty, like a fairyland. If pedestrians walk in it, it is also very cool.
The bamboo under the "fog" moisturizes, all of which are long and leafy, revealing this green. This is the bamboo that grows in the south, but it is in the north, and it has become such a look. It is amazing.
Mist bamboo forest, the most beautiful moment is when there is sunlight, the light shines through the fog, it is very beautiful, the photographers especially hope to make up the "light" time.
Tiangu Natural Underground Gallery is located in Lishui County, the hometown of the famous "Red Dragonfly". Standing at the hole
