Things to do in Loudi

I'd heard so much about the Ziquejie Terraced Fields in Xinhua, and after visiting three viewing platforms, I can confirm the scenery was quite beautiful! The area was very cool; as long as you weren't in direct sunlight, it was very comfortable. The guesthouses were also very rustic, serving authentic local cuisine with excellent ingredients, though the cooking techniques could use some improvement. I highly recommend the locally grown mini kiwis—about the size of a thumb, hairless, and incredibly sweet! Villagers sell them by the roadside for 20 yuan a box, which is fantastic! Unfortunately, everyone loved them so much that we didn't have time to take pictures before they were all gone.

The scenic spot is relatively remote, about 20 minutes drive from the highway. The supporting facilities are average, and the government has not developed and protected it well. But when I entered the house, I felt quite shocked. A long strip of building over 150 meters appeared in front of me, which was completely different from the Jiangnan courtyard or the Beijing courtyard layout. The birthplace Baiyutang is still a 15-minute drive from the main scenic spot, and it feels like it has just been developed. The road to the scenic spot is narrow, and the parking lot is paved with stones.

Meishan Dragon Palace, located on the banks of the Zishui River in Xinhua County, Loudi City, Hunan Province, is a charming tourist destination well worth a visit. Here are some of its highlights: • Amazing Geological Wonders: Meishan Dragon Palace is a large cave complex that combines diverse karst geological landscapes, including caves, canyons, and peaks. It boasts nine levels of caverns and a proven length of over 2,870 meters. The caverns offer a dazzling array of attractions, some of which are considered among the world's top five karst cave landscapes. These include the "Canyon Cloud Sky," where boats sail through an underground river, immersing visitors in a canyon less than 10 meters wide but over 50 meters high, with stalactites dangling from the cave ceiling like a forest. The "Water Golden Mountain" attraction features millions of pristine white goose pipes and stalactites reflected in the water, creating a dazzling, dazzling golden mountain. • Unique and diverse tour options: The cave offers both land and water options. Visitors can embark on a boat tour of the mysterious 466-meter-long underground river, experiencing the unpredictable waterways and feeling like they're traveling through a time tunnel. Alternatively, visitors can stroll along winding paths, admiring stalagmites and stalactites, and experiencing the mysteries of winding paths. • Rich and captivating cultural heritage: Meishan Dragon Palace is located in the heart of Meishan culture, and local legends abound. Legend has it that the Yellow Emperor transformed the Nine Dragon Peaks into nine blue dragons here. Attracted by the Meishan scenery, these dragons have resided here for thousands of years. Traces of ancient life can be found within the cave, and the scenic area's "Meishan Wu Nuo Cultural Exhibition" allows visitors to experience the mysteries of Meishan culture. • The scenic spot has won numerous honors: Meishan Dragon Palace is a national 4A-level tourist attraction and a national natural and cultural dual heritage site. It is also praised by experts as "the most beautiful geological museum in Asia", "the first in Hunan, first-class in China, advanced in the world, and can be called the best karst cave in the world". Its quality has been widely recognized.

Although there was some light rain before the summit, we were still very happy. We drove to the summit, which was only 200 meters away. The heavy rain and dark clouds made us dare not go there. We left with regrets, but we will find another opportunity. The misty village at the foot of the mountain is another realm.

The Moon-Lanyue Ancient Road is 6.5 kilometers long. The Ten-Li Painting Wall is worthy of its reputation. It is worth walking up and down. It is called Little Guilin and has beautiful natural scenery. The 128 yuan package ticket allowed us to drive to Semei Lake and walk through the entire Xianren Cave (the tourists behind us suggested walking to the Xianren Bridge and returning along the original route, because the scenic area needs to be developed and improved. It is easy to continue walking out. The 800-meter distance to the shuttle bus stop is too sunny. There is no shade at all, which makes people walk painfully. It is really hot in summer vacation), climb up and down the mountain to complete the 13-li cliffside Moon-Lanyue Ancient Road, and go to the Geological Museum. The ticket price is super value. (Including the price of Xianglu Mountain, but we didn’t climb it because we didn’t have enough time. It is a scenic spot that can be abandoned) In addition, the boat ride costs another 40 yuan, which we didn’t experience.

Guanyin Cave Ice Springs Scenic Area is a peaceful nature spot with scenic trails, waterfalls, and mountain views. The fresh air and lush greenery make it perfect for a relaxing hike or a quiet escape from the city

Boyue Cave is known as the "World Karst Museum". The karst landscapes in the cave, such as stone pillars, stone curtains, and stalactites, are varied. It also has three "world's bests", namely a 1.38-meter-long goose pipe, a 1.98-meter-high stone dam, and a 1.68-meter-deep hanging stone trough, which are of great ornamental and scientific research value.

It is very lively, and the food in many places is very unique. You will never want to leave after eating.

Loudi Museum, founded in 1994, covers an area of ​​3,400 square meters and houses thousands of cultural relics, many of which are precious. There are two basic exhibitions, namely the "Cheng Fangwu Memorial Room" and the "Loudi Celebrities Exhibition Room". The "Cheng Fangwu Memorial Room" focuses on the glorious and meritorious life of Mr. Cheng Fangwu, a great proletarian revolutionary, writer, educator and social activist. It has now become an important base for Hunan University of Humanities, Science and Technology to study Cheng Fangwu's literature and educational thoughts.

A temple with a wonderful atmosphere, a beautiful environment, and rich cultural heritage.
