📍Xiake Line 8km Hike (A must-do! 3.5 hours to experience a landscape painting)
This route is the path Xu Xiake once walked. Every step offers a new surprise. Follow the sequence to avoid getting lost. Key photo spots are highlighted:
📍Divine Turtle Welcoming Guests: As soon as you enter the scenic area, you'll see a 'giant stone turtle' perched on the hilltop. It's super ceremonial for photos. Remember to use a wide-angle lens to frame the stone turtle and the blue sky together, giving it a full comic book feel.
📍Centennial Path: The flagstone path is polished bright from footsteps, with towering trees on both sides. Sunlight filters through like scattered gold, making it especially cool to walk. Perfect for a leisurely stroll and photos.
📍Emerald City: The highlight of highlights! Your eyes will be filled with lush green. Streams flow around rocks, and the air is filled with the scent of plants. Wear light-colored clothes for photos, stand in the mist, and you'll instantly get forest-themed blockbusters.
📍Celestial Maiden Scattering Flowers: Look up! The rocks on the mountaintop resemble 'fairies scattering flowers,' especially around 3 PM when the sunlight hits the rocks, making the outlines super clear. Don't forget to shoot from below;
📍General's Building: A retro stone building hidden in the mountains. You can take photos of your back in front of the building, and if you're tired, you can rest inside;
📍Hero's Slope: The last short, steep slope. It's not too difficult to climb. After reaching the summit, you can overlook the entire mountain scenery, giving you a full sense of accomplishment;
📍Golden Bell Peak: The summit's hidden gem, a rocking horse, is Guifeng's gift to brave climbers who reach the top~
📍Guifeng Lake
✅Boat Tour: On your way back down the mountain, sit on the boat and admire the unique peaks on both sides. The lake water is as green as emerald, and the breeze is incredibly pleasant;
✅Bamboo Raft: Even more atmospheric! Slowly paddle the bamboo raft to get up close and personal with the landscape. Every casual shot will give you the feeling of 'people swimming in a painting.' Remember to wear light-colored clothes for better photos.
