The mist-shrouded Wuyi Mountains look like a wonderland straight out of a Chinese ink painting. Drifting on a bamboo raft down the Nine-Bend Stream, you'll pass between green hills and clear waters, with the red cliffs of the Danxia landform on both sides, like a natural landscape painting. Ascend Tianyou Peak in the morning mist and look down at the winding Nine-Bend Stream below, as if you were standing in the clouds. The jagged rocks of Huxiao Rock and the narrow depths of One Line Sky—every spot hides nature's breathtaking artistry.
Wuyi Mountain is not only a paradise of mountains and rivers, but also the birthplace of tea culture. In spring, the Da Hong Pao tea gardens are fragrant, and a stroll through them is like smelling the entire spring.
