✅ Must-pack: Long-sleeve quick-dry shirts + enclosed water shoes (to prevent cuts from rocks), waterproof phone pouch worn on the chest 📱

2. 🏡 Hidden Fun at the Mountain Lodge
➤ Must-order dinner: Clay pot free-range chicken + Qiandao Lake chopped chili fish head, with freshly picked veggies
➤ After dark, grab a bucket and hunt for fish/shrimp along the stream—the lodge provides headlamps and nets (bring spare clothes!)
➤ Watch a movie under the stars with fireflies flickering in the grass—pure childhood nostalgia

🌿 Day 2: Oxygen Hike × Instagrammable Spots
