I thought West Lake was beautiful, until I came here.

Lushan West Sea, Jiangxi: A hidden gem nestled in the heart of China.

The water here is crystal clear, like a jewel set amidst emerald green valleys. Thousands of islands make up this natural oxygen bar, where every breath feels rejuvenating.

📍At Lushan West Sea, you'll feel like you've stepped into a classical Chinese painting. Stroll through the ancient alleyways of the old town at dusk, dressed in traditional Hanfu, and imagine yourself transported back to a prosperous era. Then, witness a spectacular fireworks display that seamlessly blends the modern with the traditional.

🚏We've carefully planned a one-way route for your journey. Starting from Mengshengshan Pier, you'll traverse several islands, including Goddess Island and Ruoxi Island, before finally taking in a panoramic view of the entire scenic area from the Xishaizhixing Glass Observation Tower. Don't forget to savor the local delicacies, such as Xiushui Whistle and Gan South Sticky Rice Cake.

🍜Food Recommendations: Indulge in a variety of authentic Jiangxi cuisine. Try the "West Sea's First Pot" fresh fish soup, cooked in a traditional wood-fired stove for exquisite flavor. And don't miss the local breakfast specialties, like Jiujiang radish cakes.

💡Travel Tips: Check the weather forecast before your trip; the lake is even more stunning on sunny days. Be sure to take sun protection measures, including sunscreen and plenty of drinking water. Each island has convenience stores and public restrooms for your convenience. Pack a change of clothes and slippers for children who want to play in the water. For your return trip, note the time of the last boat and allow ample time to explore the entire scenic area.
