⛳️Daci Rock
The Hanging Temple in Jiangnan, standing on the Hanging Temple of Daci Rock, is breathtaking and spectacular with a deep abyss under your feet. The temple here seems to be embedded in the mountain wall, which makes people admire the wisdom and courage of the ancients. There is also a ginkgo tree that is over 700 years old. This season is the most beautiful time.
Recommended lazy travel route:
First take the elevator 4-5 cable car up the mountain - Hanging Temple - Double-faced Maitreya Buddha - Yuhua Lake - Ksitigarbha Hall - Century-old Ginkgo - Glass plank road - Slide down the mountain
1. Xinye Ancient Village
The ancient buildings here are well preserved, and every corner exudes the breath of history.
2. Xin'an River
Take a boat trip on the river, the mountains on both sides are reflected in the water, the beauty is so beautiful that it makes people forget their worries.
3. Yanzhou Ancient City
The sedimentation of history and the vitality of modern times are intertwined. Walking under the ancient city wall, touching the ancient bricks and stones, it seems that you can hear the echo of history
4. Qiliyangfan
The Qili sailboat is a bright spot on the Fuchun River. Traveling through the mountains and rivers by boat, I felt as if I had become a person in the painting. I couldn't help but want to recite a poem.
Notice! ️
There is a cable car going up the mountain at Daciyan. People with good physical strength can also hike. It is also a pet-friendly scenic spot. We saw many cute dogs along the way.
The transportation between scenic spots is not very convenient, suitable for self-driving
