For this ethereal xianxia world in the clouds, I made a special trip to Zhejiang

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed such a beautiful xianxia world existed in reality. This isn't AI, nor a xianxia game scene - it's the real "Cloud Top Heavenly Palace" built atop the clouds. From the rolling clouds at daytime to sunset, and then nightfall, it's so immersive you won't want to leave.

🚙 Just 1 hour from Hangzhou, atop a 1,168-meter mountain, with xianxia themes, Chinese aesthetics, ancient-costumed NPC interactions, performances... A dreamy summer escape that's fun to explore, play, and photograph. Honestly, the withdrawal after leaving hits harder than a breakup.

⭐️ Itinerary
Cable car up the mountain ➡️ East Gate of Xianxia Town ➡️ Boundless Lotus Pool ➡️ Deer Cry Immortal Platform ➡️ Celestial Gate Tower ➡️ Ninefold Heavenly Gate ➡️ Mountain Gate Stairway ➡️ Buddha's Hand Picking Flowers ➡️ Glazed Golden Pavilion ➡️ Dragon Gate ➡️ Sword Flight

⭐️ Tips
✅ Don't miss the night tour - the later it gets, the more dreamlike it becomes (open until 22:00)
✅ Cable car operates 8:30-22:00 to match night tour hours, so no worries about being too immersed to descend
✅ One ticket covers three areas: Xianxia Town, Alpine Grassland, and Cliff Thrill Park with unlimited two-day access - great value
✅ Multiple daily performances including night shows: "Celestial Maiden Scattering Flowers", "Sword Flight", "Flying Phoenix", "Xianxia Umbrella Acrobatics" etc. Check schedule for details.
