Compared to Huangshan, I love the treasure fairy mountain recommended by National Geographic even more

Xu Xiake did not lie to me
I really regret not coming earlier
A spectacular architectural wonder beneath the cliffs
And the unique Danxia landform
The first thing you see when you arrive at Qiyun Mountain is the sea of clouds
Visiting here during the holiday is a great choice❗️

Two days and one night itinerary at Qiyun Mountain⏰
Day 1️⃣: Watch performances at the foot of the mountain

The hotel is right at the foot of Qiyun Mountain, next to Xiaoyao Street
It’s just a three to five-minute walk to the cable car entrance
