I found a stream trekking spot close to Bao'an Central District, inside Yangtai Mountain Park. There's a small stream at the entrance, and you can also find fishing🎣, a succulent plantation, camping sites, and a lychee orchard! The place is not crowded at all, making it perfect for off-peak travel! 🧭Navigation: Yinggu Campsite (It's recommended to take a taxi on weekends, as driving yourself can lead to traffic jams and difficulty entering) Taking photos here is also amazing – it's a great spot for wearing outdoor jackets, sun protection clothing, and looking like a spicy girl🌶️. I managed to take photos for an hour before the heavy rain started! Choosing the best pictures gave me a headache😄. I was planning to play in the water💦 after the photoshoot, but my first stream trekking experience was met with a torrential downpour. Looks like I'm going to make a fortune😄

Subway🚇: Walk straight for about 400-500 meters from Yangtai Mountain East A exit, and you will find the entrance on your left hand side. 🚲Travel preparation: Sun protection clothing, mosquito repellent, water (you can buy it when you exit the subway station, or there is a self-service counter on the right side when you enter the park and start to climb the mountain, which is very convenient. Route🚲: There are several mountain entrances, you can roughly refer to the two maps of the route behind me. 🚏Mountain climbing route 1️⃣ is safer, the road is relatively flat, it just involves climbing more stairs, but this route is more crowded. 🚏Mountain climbing route 2️⃣ is all greenway, there are more green plants, there is a small slope in the middle that is under repair, you need to pay attention to safety, do not look down, and be aware of the surroundings. This route leads to Longxi Bridge and Longxi Pavilion. (You can also take route 1️⃣, turn right at the mountain entrance, the left side is a large reservoir) Caution⚠️ This is the Dalang entrance, it's very far to the Big Yangtai, it's not recommended to go there from here, this way is to the Small Yangtai. 🌵Longxi Bridge: On the right hand side is a small stream, you can stop for a rest halfway, it's especially cool, girls who don't like climbing but like taking photos, the stream here should still be a good spot, but there are many stones here, pay attention to wear anti-slip shoes, it is also the route to the top of Small Yangtai Mountain (❌If girls take this route, it's better to have company, because it's a water route, a shortcut, girls be cautious, I went by myself last time, and halfway I met a young lady to accompany me, but when we went up, two other uncles told us that there was a man who was a bit abnormal, possibly with bad intentions, and told us not to go up, so if girls take this route, just stay below to enjoy the cool or take a few photos, don't walk this route alone, it's always good to be cautious, safety first)
