Guposhan is a national 4A-level tourist attraction, located at the southern end of Mengzhuling at the junction of Guangxi, Guangdong and Hunan provinces, about 16 kilometers away from the urban area of Hezhou, and is an important tourist destination on the golden tourist line of Hong Kong-Guangzhou-Guilin. The total area of the tourist area is about 65 square kilometers, with eight theme scenic spots including Xiangu Village, Xiangu Lawn, Xiangu Waterfall, Tiantangding, Jiutian Canyon, Qingrenlin, Guyaochong and Fangjia Tea Garden, including 88 magical landscapes such as Tea Longevity Stone, Cornucopia, Immortal Pointing Road, Eight Steps of Fairyland, so it has the reputation of "Southern Fairy Mountain".
The scenic area has a pleasant climate, with an average annual temperature of about 18.2℃, an air negative oxygen ion content of about 50,000/cubic centimeter, and a forest coverage rate of about 99.55%. It is a rare natural oxygen bar for breathing oxygen and cleansing the lungs, and ecological leisure. The scenic area has high peaks and deep valleys, lush forests, waterfalls and streams, and rich flora and fauna. There are waterfalls with unique characteristics, self-driving camps, outdoor expansion bases and suburban recreational attractions, TV drama shooting locations of different styles, and leisure resort hotels. It is an ecological tourist destination that integrates sightseeing, leisure, vacation, adventure, scientific research, and conferences.
There are dozens of peaks over 1,000 meters in the park. The top of Tiantang is about 1,844 meters above sea level and is the highest peak at the junction of three provinces. There are more than 1,200 species of plants, including 9 national key protected plants. There are more than 200 species of wild animals, including 21 national key protected animals. The weather is pleasant all year round and all things thrive together.
The forest coverage rate is as high as about 99.55%, and the negative ion content is about 50,000 per cubic centimeter, which has obvious therapeutic effects on the human body. It has laid a green gene for Hezhou, the world's longevity city. Therefore, Guposhan is known as the "Land of Longevity".
The scenic area is densely covered with forests and has abundant water resources. There are nearly a hundred large and small waterfalls in the central area, forming a large number of dynamic and changing water landscapes, which are rare in China. Since ancient times, there have been poems praising "hundreds of waterfalls and cascading springs", and it is known as the "China Forest Waterfall Grand View Garden".
There are more than 80 holy traces of immortals in the mountain. The He Xiangu culture permeates the local soil and water, nurturing all things in the mountain. People of all generations worship He Xiangu and regard this mountain as a cultural holy mountain. According to the local Hakka legend, after He Xiangu attained enlightenment and became an immortal, she often turned into a Hakka aunt to save people from suffering and spread blessings to the world. Therefore, people also worship this mountain as a Hakka holy mountain.
The charming scenery and brilliant culture have attracted many tourists and film and television teams. Nearly ten TV series and movies have been filmed here, including CCTV's "Women in the Walled House", Hong Kong TVB's "Tea is the Strongest in Hometown" and "Wine is the Purest in Hometown". Guposhan has thus become famous all over the world.

The first one is the bus route map from Hezhou Railway Station. Take bus No. 17, pay 5 yuan via WeChat, and arrive at Guposhan in one hour. The entrance ticket to the scenic area is 82 yuan and the eco-friendly bus is 15 yuan. (You can visit the whole area in three hours without climbing to the top). The No. 17 bus that leaves on time at 4:50 from the scenic area to the railway station. After getting on the bus, I told the driver that I wanted to go to Huangyao Ancient Town. The driver would drop us off at an intersection, and then we would go to the opposite side to wait for the last bus to Huangyao Ancient Town (the bus stops at any time). There is actually no platform there. Fortunately, I was determined and finally waited for the minibus around 6 o'clock. Yay✌️. There are also minibuses directly to Huangyao from Hezhou Railway Station.
As for the forest park, there are a lot of negative ions, and the attractions are average. It's a pity that you can't go to the top. An accident happened during the tour. I called the rescue number according to the instructions on the ticket and was told that there were no professional rescue personnel and equipment (equipment). However, the service was good. They arranged for someone to come to understand the situation and help send me out of the scenic area, so that I could go to the hospital for treatment.
Guposhan is located in a mountainous area 16 kilometers north of Hezhou city. It focuses on the culture of Hexiangu, one of the Eight Immortals. From the inside to the outside, there are eight major theme attractions in the scenic area, including Guposhan Peak, Xiangu Waterfall, Xiangu Lawn, Jiutian Canyon, Lover's Forest, Fangjia Tea Garden, Xiangu Village, and Guyaochong. The scenic area ticket is 82 yuan/person, and the scenic area sightseeing bus is 15 yuan/person. Online ticket purchase is relatively cheap but needs to be booked 2 hours in advance (the cheapest is 74 yuan/person for tickets + scenic area sightseeing bus on China-TravelNote). There is a No. 17 tourist bus from Hezhou Railway Station and a No. 16 tourist bus from the International Hotel in the urban area that goes along Guposhan Avenue on the north side of the urban area to the gate of the scenic area (every 30 minutes, 5 yuan/person on the bus, and a 30-minute drive). The scenic spots in the scenic area are roughly arranged along a north-south valley. After checking your ticket and entering the scenic area, you can take a sightseeing bus (15 yuan/person for a round trip) directly to the innermost Xiangu Waterfall Scenic Spot. From then on, you can hike to the top of Gupo Mountain Scenic Spot (the scenic spot suggests that it takes 6-8 hours for a round trip with normal physical strength), or take a sightseeing bus/hike to the Xiangu Lawn Scenic Spot after visiting the Xiangu Waterfall; from the Xiangu Lawn, go 0.9km northeast to the entrance of the Jiutian Canyon Scenic Spot, and from there go about 1km northeast to the innermost Jiutian Waterfall, then return to the Xiangu Lawn parking spot along the original route of 2km, and then take a sightseeing bus or follow the valley trail south to visit other attractions in turn, and finally return to the gate of the scenic spot.
It is worth a visit among the popular check-in spots.
At the Guposhan Scenic Area in Hezhou, it takes 5 and a half hours to climb to the top, and you can see beautiful scenery that many people cannot see.
Quiet, clean, sanitary, a natural oxygen bar, not many people, beautiful natural scenery, great mountains and waters, it's a good idea to go there more than once.
Although there is snow in winter, it is still too cold. It should be more fun in summer.
I came here once more than ten years ago. I only remember that there were wine and tea to drink. At that time, the TV series had just been broadcast, so I followed the trend and came here. After many years, I feel that this place is cheap and has many attractions. It is best to go in before 10 o'clock and play until 5 o'clock in the afternoon, just in time for dinner. In summer, you can bring slippers and shorts to play in the water. I won't say more. Here are the pictures.
Guposhan National Forest Park is located in the northeast of Guangxi; it is located at the southern end of Mengzhuling Mountain at the junction of Hunan, Guangxi and Guangdong provinces (regions) in Pinggui District, Hezhou City, Guangxi Province[1], only 26 kilometers away from the city center (Babu). Guposhan is a natural kingdom of flora and fauna within a radius of 80 kilometers. There are 25 peaks with an altitude of more than 1,000 meters in the area, and the highest peak is 1,844 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak in eastern Guangxi. [2]
The park was rated as a national AAAA-level tourist scenic spot by the National Tourism Administration in 2006. In 2013, it was voted by the public as "the most popular scenic spot in Guangxi" and "the most popular natural scenic spot in South China for overseas Chinese". It is also known as "the largest natural oxygen bar in South China".
Visit Xiangu Waterfall. It is said that there are more than a dozen waterfalls in Gupo Mountain, but the most spectacular, natural and beautiful one is Xiangu Waterfall. The Xiangu Waterfall is about 30 meters high, and the water is clean and cool, and can be drunk directly. The waterfall has a drop of more than 80 meters and a width of 5 meters. It is divided into two sections, upper and lower, and floats lightly, like smoke and fog. On both sides of the canyon, there are towering ancient trees; vines hang lushly on the cliffs, and strange trees dot the cliffs, forming a beautiful landscape painting with waterfalls and streams.
The two TV series "Tea is the Strongest in Hometown" and "Wine is the Purest in Hometown" made Guposhan popular. The air is quite good. If you want to breathe fresh air or walk leisurely, you can do it. The sanitation inside and outside the scenic area is clean and well managed.
It is said that the road is very beautiful, more beautiful than Huangyao Ancient Town. Stay in Hezhou at night.
I booked a Didi ride at 8:20 in the morning, and the journey to Guposhan Tourist Area took about 30 minutes.
Guposhan Scenic Area tickets are not half-price for tourists from Guangdong Province. It is recommended that you book tickets online two hours in advance, which will be more cost-effective. If you buy tickets at the entrance of the scenic area, the ticket price is ¥82.00/person, and the battery car fee is ¥15.00/person, totaling ¥97.00/person.
It is recommended that you bring dry food with you. I don't think there is any food for sale in the scenic area. If you carry a large bag, you can store your luggage at the visitor center for free.
After entering the park gate, you can get on the electric car, which will first take you to the Xiangu Waterfall scenic spot, and then travel all the way down. If you have enough energy, you can try mountain climbing. I heard that the scenery at the top of the mountain is the most beautiful. But because my mother's knees are not very good, we did not choose to climb the mountain, and took the electric car all the way to each scenic spot.
The order of attractions for battery cars:
[Xiangu Waterfall] --- [Xiangu Lawn] --- [Lover's Forest] --- [Fang Family Tea Garden] --- [Xiangu Village] (It was under renovation when we went there, so this attraction was not open) --- [Guyaochong]
If you don't climb the mountain, you can visit all the attractions of Gupo Mountain in about 3 hours. If you need to climb to the top of the mountain, I have read in the guide that it takes 4 hours to climb. Those who are physically fit can still climb (actually I also want to do it), and it will feel very beautiful.
This morning I took a Didi from Bada West to Guposhan Park. When we arrived at the scenic area, the entrance was still more than a thousand meters away from the ticket office. The driver didn’t want to go in, saying that it would cost 18 yuan for parking. My dad gave him 20 yuan before he was willing to drive to the ticket office! My parents are 80 years old and are exempt from the entrance fee. They each bought a 15 yuan electric car ticket to go in. I bought the tickets online early in the morning and exchanged them at the ticket office. The ticket included the electric car ticket and cost 70 yuan. The first stop on the electric car was the Xiangu Waterfall. The scenery along the way was very beautiful and the waterfall was very imposing. The second stop was the Xiangu Temple, a large lawn, and many amusement and adventure facilities. The children were very happy! The third stop was Monkey Mountain. Many monkeys ran out to ask for food, and the administrator drove them back to the mountain. It was so funny. Then my dad said he was tired and went back to the hotel.
Huangyao to Guposhan is about 80 kilometers, and it takes about 2 hours to drive. The cost is about 250 yuan/trip, and the service to Hezhou Station is charged an additional 100 yuan/trip. Guposhan has beautiful mountains and waters, but there are many insects and monkeys. Our group members are not interested in hiking, so the fun is slightly reduced. We just come here to rest.
Guposhan is ¥82/person, including the ticket and the electric car.
You don't have to walk too much during the whole trip. There are shuttle electric cars to each scenic spot. I think the scenery of Xiangu Lawn and Xiangu Waterfall is better. Xiangu Temple is a bit of a rip-off. It's said to be free, but it actually costs money. The stream water is very clear and cool. Because the water flow is not large, you can basically walk down to play in the water, and no one will stop you.
If you want to see the best scenery, you must have good weather. This place is very large. If you want to visit the entire Gupo Mountain, one day is probably not enough. You have to visit it several times. Climbing the mountain is the most laborious. But the scenery you see is the most beautiful.
Guposhan National Forest Park is located in the northeast of Guangxi; it is located in Pinggui District, Hezhou City, Guangxi Province, at the southern end of Mengzhuling Mountain at the junction of Hunan, Guangxi and Guangdong provinces. It is only 26 kilometers away from the city center (Babu District). Guposhan is a natural kingdom of animals and plants within a radius of 80 kilometers. There are 25 peaks with an altitude of more than 1,000 meters in the area. The highest peak is 1,844 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak in eastern Guangxi. Opening hours
8:00~17:00. Ticket price: 110 yuan.
Price: 25 (discount during Chinese New Year)
The highest peak is 1844 meters above sea level, but you have to climb the mountain before 11 noon, otherwise you will not be allowed to climb. It takes 5-7 hours to go back and forth. We regret not being able to climb up.
The air is really good because it rained for several days when I went there, so there was more fog in the mountains🍃
And the peacocks here really like to fly to the roof. Isn’t it nice to be a quiet peacock?👀
Among the major scenic spots in Hezhou, Guposhan is not as famous as Huangyao Ancient Town, but in terms of landscape, it is definitely more worth seeing. Moreover, the scenic area has a lot of content. In order to strive for a 5A scenic spot, the sanitary conditions of the restrooms are also good, which is worth the 85 yuan ticket purchased online.
The scenic area's electric cars will take tourists directly from the gate to the innermost attraction - Xiangu Waterfall, and then take the car to travel out for fun. The overall design is relatively reasonable, but if you don't understand the situation of each scenic area, it would be a pity to waste time in the previous scenic area and miss the beautiful scenery behind it.
First of all, I would like to remind you that the longest part of the scenic area is the section to the top of Gupo Mountain after visiting Xiangu Waterfall. It is said that it takes 6-8 hours to reach the top and back. At the beginning, there will be a warm reminder that it is recommended not to choose to climb the top after 11:30. Combined with the comments of many friends that the scenery on the way to the top is not very attractive, basically tourists who only spend one day in Gupo Mountain can not consider this section and spend more time in other scenic spots.
In addition to the gate and Xiangu Waterfall, the other stops of the electric car are (from Xiangu Waterfall outward) Xiangu Lawn, Lover's Forest, Fang Family Tea Garden, Xiangu Village, and Guyao Chong. Among them, Xiangu Lawn and Guyao Chong both have hidden waterfall attractions, which require more time; while the other three attractions do not necessarily require getting off the car to visit, and they are introduced one by one below.
Xiangu Waterfall is the easiest to reach among the three waterfalls in Guposhan Scenic Area. It does not require too much physical effort. After getting off the bus, you can take photos and play in the water. It only takes more than half an hour before you can take the next bus.
The Xiangu Lawn is the most abundant. You can go up the mountain to pray (Xiangu Temple), watch performances (parrots), and there is also the filming location of TVB dramas (Jiupuxiang Wine Shop). Going further in, Jiutian Canyon and Jiutian Waterfall are enough for you to walk tens of thousands of miles easily. If you have prepared dry food, you can consider eating it here, because the Jiutian Waterfall section will take an hour and a half. Special mention is the Xiangu Temple. There are many peacocks on the hillsides around the temple. If you are lucky, you can see them spreading their tails (at least the chance is greater than in the peacock garden below).
The next three attractions are: Lover's Forest is for barbecues and water play. Usually no one goes there in winter, so the driver will just fly past it; Fang's Tea Garden is for tea tasting and selling. Those who have no interest in tea culture or are already very familiar with it can ignore this place; Xiangu Village has performances and restaurants that can meet the needs of tourists with higher dietary requirements. There are also places to play in the water and pick up stones, so you can stop for a while.
The finale is Guyaochong. In addition to the monkey park outside (there are also wild macaques), you can walk inside to the Benma Waterfall. I personally think this is the most beautiful of the three waterfalls in Guposhan, and it only takes about half an hour. Therefore, although people are usually exhausted when they get here, it is still recommended to go in for a visit.
It only takes about 10 minutes to walk along the plank road from the Guyaochong Scenic Area's boarding and alighting point to the main gate. The electronic tour guide on the electric car will also suggest tourists to walk.
Winter is different in beauty. The top of Gupo Mountain is windy, but it is particularly tall and spectacular. It is refreshing to look into the distance. The road is slippery when it snows, so pay attention to safety. The only downside is that the sightseeing bus cannot take you to the foot of the mountain. Also, the food is very expensive, but everything else is good and worth going.
The attraction is quite large, with many themes, and it is worth going. If you like hiking, you can go, but be careful, the monkeys here are really free-range, so be careful not to let the monkeys snatch your phone and things away
It's very big inside, the environment is good, it takes a day to walk around
Gupo Mountain is far from downtown Hezhou, and can be reached by the tourist bus and bus No. 17. Both buses can be boarded at the New World Hotel Station. The fare is 4 yuan, but the departure interval is at least half an hour. Pay attention to the time control on the return trip. The scenery on the mountain is average, but the air is good and the temperature is low. Bring a shawl or scarf just in case.
The tickets are a bit expensive, it is recommended to buy tickets on Taobao~
The natural scenery is very good, and a day is enough to visit, but you must bring enough dry food and water, as climbing the mountain is very strenuous.
Be careful of wild animals appearing.
Attractions worth visiting 👍🏻
You can take Bus No. 17 in the city or Guposhan Tourist Bus to the scenic spot, which takes about half an hour.
A natural oxygen bar with fresh air and gentle mountain roads. It's nice to breathe fresh air here after staying in a big city for a long time. There are electric cars at various scenic spots, so it's easy for the elderly to visit. The driver's service is excellent!
From the gate of the scenic area, take the electric car to Xiangu Waterfall, and then go down to Xiangu Lawn, Fangjia Tea Garden, Xiangu Village, and Guyaochong. If you want to climb to the top of the mountain, you can take the electric car directly to Xiangu Waterfall.
The temperature in the mountains is about 10 degrees lower than in the city, and the wind is strong, especially in the morning, so be sure to bring a thick coat! ! ! If you don’t have a coat, you can rent one outside the gate of the scenic area.
Attractions with conscience:
1. The ticket price is more than 80 yuan, which includes an electric car with unlimited boarding and alighting times in the scenic area.
2. The service attitude is first-class! Whether it is the parking lot security guard, ticket seller, or battery car driver, they are all kind and lovely, making guests feel at home.
3. The route to the scenic spot is well planned. It is really suitable for the elderly!
(1) The scenic spot is not too high, so you only need to take an electric car. Unlike other famous mountains, you need both a cable car and a car. When I was at Hengshan, the car took the winding mountain road, which made many people feel dizzy. At Guposhan, you only need to take an electric car. The breeze is blowing along the way, and you can enjoy the fresh air of nature without having to stay in a confined car.
(2) The signboards are good. The direction of the scenic spot and the distance to each scenic spot are marked, which makes it easy for us to decide whether to let the elderly go. The hiking route is also marked.
4. The tour route is simple and convenient.
There are 6 parking spots for the battery car. You don't have to think about how to go, just sit at the end, take a tour, and get on the car to go to the next attraction. We went to four attractions in total, but the old man was too tired to go to the place with monkeys.
(1) Xiangu Waterfall. It’s so beautiful! It’s the first time I’ve seen such a high waterfall. Even an elderly person can climb it.
(2) Xiangu Grassland. There is a development base and a winery (the place to shoot wine is the hometown mellow place). There are peacocks walking around, not afraid of strangers. We said that the peacocks are like domestic turkeys. . . We had a meal at this scenic spot, 20 yuan per plate of rice!! The five of us ordered three rice dishes (stone ear pork rice, river fish rice, mushroom chicken rice) and a sweet potato seedling. You can eat a full meal in the scenic area for 80 yuan. I think only Guposhan can do it.
(3) Lover's Forest. Many locals brought hammocks to rest here, and many people ate here (they brought vegetables, watermelons, and rice cookers). Tourists who come here should remember to buy a hammock first. It is so comfortable to sleep in! There is a Lover's Lake here where you can swim! The water is so cold that I dare not try.
(4) Xianguzhai, simple houses, we visited it for 10 minutes and then left.
It feels average. Not as good as expected. A bit disappointed
Guposhan is a national 4A-level scenic spot with a forest coverage rate of 93%. The negative oxygen ion content in the air is as high as 65,856 per cubic centimeter. It is known as the largest natural forest oxygen bar in South China. There are many natural waterfalls, large lawns, etc.
The scenery is nice and the place is very big. I didn't have much time that day, so I visited a few places. I really wanted to see the Jiutian Waterfall, but I didn't see it because I had to go back in the afternoon. It was a little regrettable.
The negative ion waterfall and fresh air, the entire forest park is so big, enough for you to spend a day leisurely!
The air is very good. The scenery is pretty good. According to the locals, it takes six or seven hours to climb to the top of the mountain. If you just walk around, it will only take about two hours.
It was full of fairy air. I went there in the morning to absorb more negative ions. As soon as I got off the car, I felt the air was particularly fresh. If you go there in winter, there won’t be much water in the waterfall. You can even see foreign friends in this 4-star attraction, haha! We didn’t have much time to climb to the top of the heaven, but we could feel the smoke of Guposhan filling the rolling mountains, which was particularly beautiful! It is worth recommending the mountain wine of Guposhan Winery, which is sweet and delicious, and easier to drink than the bitter red wine in the supermarket, haha~ I brought back two small jars to help me sleep~
Guposhan is a natural oxygen bar with hundreds of wild monkeys. They come down the mountain to look for food at noon every day. They are relatively docile and like to eat peanuts, which are loved by children.
A natural oxygen bar, the original state of the mountain forest is OK. The top of the mountain is quite high, and I didn't have time to get there. There are many artificial scenic spots at the foot of the mountain. I am sure that the ticket includes the sightseeing car to the bottom of the mountain trail.
During the National Day holiday, I drove here with my family. The places to play in the forest park are concentrated in the area from the middle of the mountain to the foot of the mountain. There is a monkey park. The monkeys in it are not afraid of people. They are so cute. Don't miss this place! There are eco-friendly cars to these places. But!! There is no eco-friendly car to the top of the mountain. If you want to go to the top of the mountain, you can only rely on your own two legs... And there are no attractions to play from the middle of the mountain to the top of the mountain. You can only walk up boringly. It takes about three or four hours to get there. If the season is right and the weather is good, it is still good to go to the top of the mountain to have a look.
The mountains and rivers are picturesque and the scenery is beautiful, it is worth a visit.
I don't know if it's because it was off-season, so there were very few tourists. I didn't have to wait too long to take the bus or take pictures along the way. The air here is very fresh. It's really a good place for me to relax and unwind after working all the time. The only downside is that there are too few special buses here, and if you miss the 10 am bus, you have to wait until 3:30 pm, and there are no buses in between. Maybe it's more suitable for self-driving tours
Forest Park has air purification, suitable for leisurely friends
The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and there are not many people. It is very suitable for family outings. The scenery on the mountain is very good. In fact, it is good to walk to the ice and snow companions
Buy adult tickets online and buy student tickets on site, which is cheaper! The scenery here is nice. It is said that there is a swimming pool on the top, but I didn’t see it~ There are many waterfalls, which feels good~ You can take a tour bus to each attraction, which is not very tiring~
It was around 4pm when we arrived at Gupo Mountain. There was only one hotel next to the entrance of the scenic area. It was best to book in advance during holidays. There was a discount price at that time. We booked two rooms for 268 yuan each. We could buy a discounted ticket for the scenic area for 80 yuan at the hotel, and we could also enjoy a 10 yuan discount on the next day's ticket. The scenic area began to clear the area and close at around 6pm. Gupo Mountain is relatively large, with many waterfalls. You can take a scenic bus to various scenic spots. The mountain road to Jiutian Waterfall is relatively steep and deep, so it is better to have more people.
Guposhan National Forest Park is a national 4A-level scenic spot with a pleasant climate, a forest coverage rate of 93%, and an air negative oxygen ion content of up to 65,856 per cubic centimeter. It is a natural oxygen bar in South China. Hong Kong TV series such as "Tea is the Strongest in Hometown" and "Wine is the Purest in Hometown" were filmed here.
The air was very good, but when I went there the waterfall was said to be under repair, so it was a pity that I didn't see it.
The air is relatively fresh. There is not much scenery to see during the climb, but it feels good at the top of the mountain. The tea garden is the most beautiful. The scenic area is very large, and it takes a lot of physical strength to go to Gupo Mountain.
I booked tickets online and participated in the tent festival, which was fun and lasted until almost 1 o'clock in the evening. The scenery is beautiful, and the air, waterfalls, mountains, tea gardens, wineries, monkeys, streams, and ancient villages are all worth recommending.
It's really nice. The electric car picks you up and you don't need to climb the mountain breathlessly. The air is fresh.
The 4A-level scenic spot is pretty good. The entrance fee is 82 yuan + 10 yuan for the scenic area bus. However, it would be better if the scenic area bus could take us farther away. Climbing the mountain requires physical strength. We didn't bring anything this time. The biggest mistake was that you must prepare water and food when climbing Gupo Mountain. You can buy them at Xiangu Waterfall. Although the scenic spot is a bit expensive, it is better than not being able to climb the whole way due to lack of physical strength. I look forward to the opening of the cable car in the scenic spot. The weather is not bad today. It would be nice if the sun came a little earlier. It costs 10 yuan to pray at Xiangu Temple and get the fortune to be interpreted. If you ask a god to interpret the fortune, you need to buy incense and burn it. Remember to apply sunscreen to the sun-exposed areas. I only climbed halfway up the mountain and my feet were clearly black and white when I came back.
Due to time constraints, I also wanted to go to Huangyao Ancient Town, so I bought a one-day tour on Taobao, including Huangyao Ancient Town and Guposhan National Forest Park. We were supposed to be back at 6pm, but Huangyao is still two or three hours away from Guposhan. The tour guide took us to several places that also sold wine and tea. In the end, we returned to Yangshuo at more than 9pm. We were really exhausted, probably because we were tired. I really didn't see how good it was.
I went there in the summer. We took a small car to get in, then climbed the mountain and saw the waterfall. It was so cool to stand in front of the waterfall. There were no worries at all, only the sound of the powerful water hitting the water and the strong wind brought by it.
Guposhan National Forest Park is located in the northeast of Guangxi. It is a natural kingdom of plants and animals within a radius of 80 kilometers. It is known as the "largest natural oxygen bar in South China". Most of the children in Guangdong know Guposhan from the two TV series "Tea is the Strong Hometown" and "Wine is the Pure Hometown" on Jade Channel. I remember that more than ten years ago, I thought the tea gardens and wineries there were very beautiful from TV. It takes less than an hour to drive from Hezhou to Guposhan, and you can visit it in a day. The biggest feature of Guposhan is that the air has a high oxygen content, which is suitable for leisure travel. There are snacks for sale at the scenic spots on the mountain, a resort hotel at the foot of the mountain, and many farmhouses near the scenic area.
The scenery is good, but the instructions are a little unclear.
I, a woman, actually climbed to the top with my 6-year-old son...
I thought it was just a scenic spot at first, but it was too late to turn back...
If you are without water or food for 8 hours, you should ask other climbers for help.
There was no indication of where I was or how far I had to go.
I just kept climbing up the road...
Alas, it’s all tears if I talk too much.
Guposhan is a natural oxygen bar with a high vegetation coverage rate. Walking on the trail of Guposhan, the fresh air hits your nose, which is very comfortable. Climbing the mountain is not tiring at all. It is a great place for tourism.
If you are traveling by car, there are many farmhouse restaurants on the way to Guposhan. You can eat there because it is quite cheap and the ingredients are fresh! (But it is best to ask the price in advance) One of them can sell tickets to Guposhan, which seems to be 90 yuan per person! The ticket to Guposhan includes the price of the battery car, which will stop at waterfalls, wineries, tea gardens and other attractions! To be honest, the tea in the tea garden is really not good!
The ticket price of more than 100 yuan includes the battery car fee. There are several scenic spots inside, some of which are far away, so you can take a car. One of the scenic spots inside is one of the filming locations of a famous TV series shot by Hong Kong Jade Channel. There are small village-style buildings during the Republic of China period, a tea mountain, and a tall temple.
I went there once, during the National Day holiday. I went with my classmates. We didn’t reach the top of the mountain. But it took quite some time. We had a good time.
It feels very average, not as good as expected, and not as worthy of ordinary tourists to study its academic value as described in the information. I didn't want to go there, and I never want to go there again after I went there.
Gupo Mountain has high peaks and deep valleys, lush forests, waterfalls and gurgling streams. It is a natural oxygen bar and a good place for sightseeing, vacation, leisure and recuperation.
The sightseeing buses in Guposhan are free. We went there at 9 o'clock in the morning. It is recommended to go early.
I got up early in the morning and went to Xinshiji Station to wait for the Guposhan special bus. I waited and waited but no bus came. There were many people soliciting passengers. Suddenly, a man asked me if I was going to Guposhan. I said yes. He said he was a staff member of Guposhan. Indeed, he was wearing work clothes. He said, give me a price to take you up. I casually said 30 (after all, the road is a bit far). He said, add a little more, I am driving a work car today, I will take you directly in, no tickets are required. Finally, I successfully embarked on the Guposhan trip at a price of 40.
Between the mountain tops, the drizzle was light, and the waterfall had a momentum of "flying down three thousand feet, like the Milky Way falling from the sky". Before I even saw the waterfall, I was attracted by the sound of the rushing water. I went straight down, and the drizzle and water mist intertwined. The waterfall poured down from the top of the mountain, like a dream and fantasy. Even if the clothes and hair were wet, there was no sense of disobedience. The coolness of summer, like the gentleness of water, slowly rippled with the mountain breeze...
Streams and mountain streams often flow under stone bridges. What we have to mention are the stones here. The ancient stones of Hezhou are also a major feature. As the saying goes, "gold and silver have a price, but jade is priceless." After being polished and carved, the ancient stones are also very valuable.
Guposhan belongs to Mengzhuling in the Wuling Mountains. It obviously has the characteristics of the Wuling Mountains, with majestic mountains, lush vegetation, peaks and beautiful mountains. This kind of mountain looks like a gentle slope with a flat top, but it is often unexpectedly difficult to climb. But it is on this winding road that you can fully appreciate the beautiful scenery of the Wuling Mountains. In fact, compared with the mountains, Guposhan is more prominent in water. The canyons here are deep and gullies are crisscrossed. In this high gorge and deep valley, there are streams of all sizes, high mountains and flowing water, and waterfalls hanging high, which is a magnificent sight. It can be said that where there are mountains, there are valleys, where there are valleys, there must be water, and where there is water, there must be waterfalls. The reputation of Guposhan Waterfall spread quickly from near to far, and the number of people coming here to watch the water and play in the water gradually increased, so that it slowly overshadowed Guposhan itself. I don’t know if it is affected by this, but now Guposhan has been divided into three parks. In addition to Guposhan National Forest Park, there is also a Jade Forest Park for climbing mountains and viewing rocks, and an Eighteen Water Park for appreciating waterfalls. The latter is the focus of our visit.
Guposhan has complete facilities, a large scenic area and shuttle buses within the park, which is very convenient.
Regarding Guposhan, the original plan was to go in through the stream near the gate and not buy tickets. However, since the girls did not prepare the equipment for trekking and wore inappropriate shoes, they had to buy tickets to enter. The ticket was 100 yuan per person, and we booked tickets on site through Lvmama. However, the staff of the scenic spot was too rigid and insisted that we wait 2 hours for the ticket to take effect before entering. We had to wait from 10 o'clock to 12 o'clock before entering. Since there was no reminder to enter the venue two hours later when I bought the ticket through the mobile phone APP, the legal turtle called to inquire and complain while waiting to enter. I still remember the grand occasion of following him and recording the evidence.
The stream next to the entrance of Guposhan Mountain, the stream water is left from the mountain, clear and cool, very comfortable. There are too many stones in it, and it is also very slippery. I walked between two stones in cloth shoes, which was too slippery, so everyone chose to buy tickets to enter. After waiting for a long time, it was finally 12 o'clock and we were allowed to enter. The ticket includes the cost of the battery car to take us from the gate of the scenic area to the place near the waterfall and the tea garden where the filming of "Tea is Hometown" was filmed. The experience of taking the battery car to enter is also unique. On the left hand side is the stream rushing in the jungle, the sound is moving, the wind in the mountains is refreshing and pleasant, and the troubles encountered at the entrance of the scenic area are quickly thrown behind. I saw the stream on the left on the battery car. The water flow is very fast in most places, and it is also very deep. I secretly thought that it was a good thing that I didn't choose to go tracing.
We arrived at the terminal of the electric car. There were tea gardens, waterfalls and some interesting attractions nearby, but the purpose of our trip was not to go there, but to hike. So we left all the attractions behind and went straight into the mountains. First there was a road, then we went into the mountains along the stream. There were stepped stairs in the mountains. After entering the mountains, we kept climbing with our heads down, occasionally looking up at the stream, the forest and our friends. During this time, it rained intermittently in Gupo Mountain, with showers and thunderstorms. Our clothes got wet, dried and then got wet again. It was a very enjoyable journey.
When we were close to the summit, there was another heavy rain, trapping us in the pavilion. The wind was blowing from all directions. We gathered together and used umbrellas to block the wind, but we still felt the cold mountain wind! The small group held a small meeting. The girls decided not to climb to the summit and slowly go down the mountain after the rain subsided. The two men who were obsessed with climbing to the summit decided to climb to the summit and then quickly go down the mountain to meet us.
It is best to go to the top of the mountain in the morning. It is not recommended to go to the top of the mountain after 12 noon. It is strongly recommended that you must go to the top of the mountain if you have time. Only by being there can you appreciate the picturesque beauty of the mountains and rivers.
I don't think Guposhan is that interesting. There are two waterfalls, nothing special.
Guposhan is the filming base for the tea is the hometown of strong and the wine is the hometown of mellow. It has to be said that this is really a good place for small numbers. The beautiful scenery along the way is unforgettable.
By the way, we walked to Wayao Chong before taking the sightseeing bus to Xiangu Waterfall. After the visit, we started walking down the mountain. The sightseeing bus was not very useful for us, but it was needed for going up and down the mountain. Dear friends, please consider whether to take it. As for the place to wait for the bus, it is in front of the scenic spots in the scenic area.
The scenery is nice, but it has become too artificial and has lost its original character.
I felt a great sense of accomplishment after reaching the top. I would like to remind friends who want to climb the top to set off early and bring enough dry food and water! Maybe because of the haze, I didn't feel very shocked after reaching the top. Instead, the scenery I saw on the way down the mountain made me feel more beautiful...
There was a photography exhibition at the gate of Guposhan at that time. I saw many works of photography masters. The photos taken at the top of the mountain were so majestic and beautiful. I made up my mind to find another opportunity to climb to the summit here again.
An unexpectedly good scenic spot, there are battery cars in the scenic area, and the scenery is pretty good. If you want to climb mountains and don’t want to miss the scenic area, you can choose to stay in the Forest Hotel for one night. You can get free tickets on the second day (but you still have to pay for the battery car service fee on the second day). The hotel is also very good~ The scenery on the mountain is also great, there are rhododendrons in spring, and there may be snow in winter.
The hiking route here does not require you to go back. There will be a fork about half an hour after the beginning of the hiking trail. The road on the left will be flatter and the road on the right will be steeper.
The fresh air and pleasant scenery made me feel happy. The waterfall in the dry season has little water and is not spectacular, but it blends in with the dense trees and quiet forest around it, which is pleasing to the eye.
After getting off the high-speed rail station, my two-day tour began. I saw many friends online saying that it takes a day to go to Gupo Mountain, so I put Gupo Mountain on the first day and go to Huangyao Ancient Town tomorrow. There are many taxis and private car drivers soliciting customers outside the high-speed rail station, but I still took the tourist bus No. 17 to Gupo Mountain directly for 5 yuan, which is very cost-effective. I bought the ticket. I am from Guangdong, so I got a half-price discount, which is good.
After checking my tickets, I originally planned to walk up, but I heard that it would take 10 kilometers to get to the top, so I took the sightseeing bus for 15 yuan. The good thing is that you can get off and get on at every scenic spot. It's a one-way trip, but you can't take the return trip. Because after passing half of the scenic spots, I realized that I didn't reach the top of the mountain, and the climb I wanted to go to was too far. I asked the sightseeing bus driver, and he said that if you can't return, you can only go to the next scenic spot, so I gave up.
However, the scenery of Guposhan is quite good. You can enjoy the fresh air and the mountains and rivers. It is a good place for a short vacation. You can also get close to the peacock monkeys. The monkeys are not afraid of people. When they saw the bag in my hand, they came to grab it. I was also lucky enough to see the peacock spread its tail. The peacocks in the zoo were all fenced off, so I didn’t see them spread their tails.
