Benxi's Ultimate Hidden Gem Self-Driving Road Trip

Benxi actually hides a charmingly named, breathtaking self-driving road—the Xiaocao Line! Connecting Xiaoshi Town and Caohekou Town, it links the spectacular views of Guanmen Mountain and Guanshan Lake into one route. The section from Guanmen Mountain to Tangou is like a moving landscape painting~

Along the way, you'll find not only the colorful mountain and forest scenery but also many stunningly beautiful inns. Among them, Huaxi Muqi Yang Hot Spring Hotel is a must-recommend! With an Instagram-worthy vibe, any spot in the courtyard or terrace is like a naturally filtered masterpiece.

🚗 The self-driving guide is super simple:
First, take the Benhuan Expressway to Xiaoshi Town, then navigate directly to Saima Town, and the most beautiful section will find you automatically! Driving through the mountains and forests, with autumn colors flowing outside the window, when tired, just turn into a hot spring inn to rest. You can take photos and soak in the hot springs—this is the true joy of self-driving~
