The scenery is absolutely stunning; the misty reflections on the river create a picturesque scene reminiscent of an ink painting. The dam seen from the sightseeing bus was magnificent. However, be mindful of your physical condition when exploring the canyon, as the waterfall was a bit too difficult to climb.

We entered the Xiaodongjiang Scenic Area in Zixing City, Chenzhou at 7:00 AM, took the shuttle bus, and got off at Viewing Platform No. 2. The fog in Xiaodongjiang was beautiful, and the sun had just come out. The scenery along the way was beautiful.

The attraction is a bit small, but very unique. The bamboo rafts weave through the Danxia mountains, giving you a feeling of effortlessly navigating through countless peaks! On October 5th, we arrived at 8:30 am and didn't have to queue.

The pass is great, including the shuttle bus and bamboo raft ride. The scenery from the bamboo raft is especially beautiful and definitely worth the trip. I visited on the 5th day of the National Day holiday, and the crowds were much smaller. The process of taking the bamboo raft first and then the shuttle bus was smooth, making immigration a very pleasant experience – traveling off-peak!
