"Stunning! The landscape of Lushan West Sea is breathtaking!"

Lushan West Sea Getaway: A Lake of a Thousand Islands, An Encounter with a Poetic Paradise
[Landscape Painting]
Lushan West Sea is known as the "Little Maldives of Jiangxi." More than 1,600 islands are scattered across the lake, and the emerald green waters are inlaid between the mountains. We recommend climbing Guanhudao in the early morning to overlook the panoramic view, with the islands looming in the mist. In the afternoon, take a cruise through Canghai Island and Goddess Island to experience the artistic conception of "traveling through ink paintings by boat." Photography enthusiasts should not miss the West Sea Star Glass Viewing Platform, which overlooks the beauty of a thousand islands from a height of 99m.
[Immersive Experience]
• Water sports: You can experience sailing and kayaking in the Jinkou scenic area, or take a speedboat to ride the waves.
• Secluded ancient village: Explore Zhelin Ancient Town, where the bluestone alleys and old houses from the Ming and Qing dynasties hide authentic fresh fish. You must try the West Sea mandarin fish soup.
• Zen-inspired slow life: Stay at the Si Wu Xie Homestay, where you can enjoy a lake view when you open the window, or choose to camp on the heart of the island and fall asleep under the stars.
