Yichun June Summer Escape Guide: 25°C Summer, Bamboo Forests, Hot Springs, and Rafting All in One!

Yichun, Jiangxi's "Emerald," is just a 2-hour high-speed train ride from Changsha and Nanchang🚄. With an average summer temperature of 25°C, its bamboo forests are more refreshing than air conditioning, its selenium-rich hot springs leave your skin glowing✨, and its waterfall rafting will have you screaming with excitement! Visiting Yichun in June is practically a lifesaver for escaping the sweltering heat.

📅 3-Day, 2-Night Detailed Itinerary

Day 1: Oxygen Boost at Moon Mountain + Relaxing in Wentang Town
🌞 Morning: Head straight to Moon Mountain! The cable car takes you to the summit in just 10 minutes (a lazy traveler's dream). The Qingyun Cliff Walkway hangs over the edge of the cliffs☁️, with rolling clouds beneath your feet—perfect for immortal-worthy photos📸. The Yungu Waterfall, known as the "No. 1 Waterfall in Jiangnan," sprays cool mist right onto your face.
🍜 Noon: Grab a bowl of cold jelly from a mountaintop stall for just 5 yuan—pure bliss!
🌙 Evening: Descend and head straight to Wentang Town. Soak your feet in the free foot baths along Gujingquan Street🦶 while munching on selenium-rich eggs (the yolks are so fragrant, they'll bring tears to your eyes). Stay at the Moon Mountain Grand Metropark Hot Spring Hotel, where your room comes with a private hot spring—your skin will feel as smooth as a peeled egg🥚 after soaking.

Day 2: Scream-Inducing Rafting + Fruit Picking
🌞 Morning: Tackle the Baiyun Peak Rafting in Shanggao, with a 299-meter drop and a 22-meter vertical slide🌊. The inflatable raft feels like a roller coaster, and you'll scream yourself hoarse! (If you prefer something tamer, try the Wanzai Jiulong Rafting, where the scenery is breathtaking.)
🍜 Noon: Order a feast at a farmhouse restaurant: stir-fried cured pork with bamboo shoots, small river fish—the wok hei aroma will have neighboring tables sneaking glances👀.
🌙 Evening: Pick blueberries at Lanyu Blueberry Farm🫐—the freshly picked berries are frosty and burst with sweet-tart juice! Back in the city, stroll through Gulou Pedestrian Street and try fried spicy skewers paired with mung bean soup—so addictive you won’t stop even when your mouth is on fire🔥.

Day 3: Time Travel in Wanzai Ancient Town + Stargazing Camping
🌞 Morning: Explore Wanzai Ancient Town for free! The Ming and Qing ancestral halls feature black-tiled roofs, and the Nuo dance performance starts at 10:00 AM—the masks add an air of mystery🎭.
🍜 Noon: Feast on "Wanzai Chopped Meat" at a ancestral hall banquet—minced pork stir-fried with chili, so delicious you’ll lick your plate clean😋.
🌙 Evening: Camp at Tonggu Qixingling⛺️, where your tent is right next to an infinity pool, and the Milky Way is visible to the naked eye✨!
