Day 2 Wenzhou → Yandang Mountain

·morning

Today is the departure day, we are about to officially start our journey

We departed at 8:00 AM and headed for Yandang Mountain, a famous mountain on the sea. Along the way, our tour guide provided explanations, interactive guides, and fun games, creating a lively atmosphere.

At 9:30 AM, we'll visit Lingfeng Scenic Area, the highlight of Yandang Mountain. CCTV and other media outlets have used its stunning scenery to showcase the mountain in their promotional videos. The two unique caves, Guanyin Cave and Beidou Cave, are particularly stunning. Hezhang Peak is a representative sight of Yandang Mountain. Guanyin Cave, nestled within the peak, boasts nine tiered, dangerous towers. This ingenious construction blends seamlessly with the natural beauty of the cave, making it the most scenic cave in Yandang Mountain. Deep mysteries lie within, and the air is perpetually filled with incense.

Around 11:30, lunch.

·afternoon

Around 12:30 PM, visit Lingyan Scenic Area, known for its breathtaking scenery, "Yandang is the most breathtaking in the world, and Lingyan is the most breathtaking." Here, you can enjoy the spectacular "Flying Crossing" performance. The performance takes place not on flat ground but 200 meters above sea level, a truly unique feat. It's hard to imagine the performance unfolding on a tightrope strung between the peaks of Tianzhu Peak and Zhanqi Peak. After the show, walk into Wolong Valley, deep within Lingyan, and explore Xiaolongqiu Waterfall. Visit the Broken Heart Cliff, where Xiaolongnu leaped from her famous role in Jin Yong's "The Return of the Condor Heroes," and experience the 100-meter glass plank road.

Around 3:30 PM, visit the Dalongqiu Scenic Area. With a drop of over 190 meters, the waterfall is one of the most culturally significant attractions in the Yandang Mountain Scenic Area. Its cliff carvings complement the breathtaking natural landscape, leaving you wanting to linger. The waterfall originates at Baigangjian, flows through Longqiubei, and cascades down from Lianyun Peak, resembling the Milky Way. The beauty of Dalongqiu lies in its captivating and diverse scenery, which changes with the seasons and weather.

After the tour, drive back to the city to stay at the hotel.

Driving time: 1.5 hours

Day 3 Nanxi River → Dongtou Peninsula

Around 11:00, we left Shiwei Rock and headed to the lunch spot.

·afternoon

Arrive at Cangpo Ancient Village at 12:30 PM, a model village embodying the culture of farming and studying in southern Zhejiang. Let's reminisce about history and become like a scholar of the past. This ancient village's layout is guided by the "Four Treasures of the Study." Entering the village, visitors are greeted by Song Dynasty-era roads, village walls, residences, and ancestral halls. The "Four Treasures of the Study" here exude the unique fragrance of scholars, exemplifying the enduring legacy of the "farming and studying" culture.

Around 2:00 PM, we headed to the Nanxi River Bamboo Rafting for a bamboo rafting trip. The river flow was calm, and the crystal-clear waters of the Nanxi River flowed gently. As we sailed, we could truly appreciate the beauty of the Nanxi River. Here, we could also experience the refreshing waters of the Nanxi River.

We gathered at the right time and said goodbye to Nanxi River. Although we were a little reluctant, we were going to embrace the sea.
