Journey to the Stunning Route from Journey to the West

Embark on a spontaneous Danxia adventure! This time, we hiked a recreated Journey to the West route, taking you into the magical landscapes of Guifeng, a perfect representation of the breathtaking Danxia landforms🚩

Guifeng Scenic Area (National Highway 320, Yiyang County, Shangrao City), one of the filming locations for Journey to the West, is truly stunning! The unique Danxia landforms combined with clear waters and blue skies create breathtaking scenes—every snapshot looks like a masterpiece📸

🌟Highlights:
1️⃣Danxia Wonders: Guifeng is famous for its turtle-shaped rocks, lifelike and vivid. The "Turtle Spirit" in Journey to the West might have been inspired by these formations.
2️⃣Clear Water Canyon: The crystal-clear mountain stream contrasts beautifully with the red Danxia rocks, making for a super healing stroll.
3️⃣Journey to the West Filming Location: Walking here feels like stepping into the scenes where the master and his three disciples once traveled.
4️⃣Rock Climbing Challenge: Some areas offer rock climbing activities (safety first!) [Onlooker]

💡Useful Tips:
1️⃣The scenic area is large, so wear comfortable shoes and prepare for sun protection.
2️⃣The best time to visit is from April to October, but the off-season after November offers fewer crowds and beautiful scenery, each with its own charm [Kiss].
3️⃣There are limited food options inside the park, so bring some snacks and water.
4️⃣For photos, wear red—I love bright colors that complement the mountains perfectly [Chin].

🚗Transportation Guide:
Drive directly to "Guifeng Scenic Area," where there is a large parking lot.
You can also take a direct tourist bus from Yiyang County to the scenic area; boat rides require an additional fee [Happy].
