This mountain in Zhejiang is less crowded and more thrilling than Huangshan!

Live photos! A World Natural Heritage Site accessible by high-speed train‼ · A secret realm praised by Bai Juyi and Xu Xiake! Zhejiang hides a strange peak ⛰ even more dangerous than Huangshan. Three rock formations split through the clouds, and near-vertical iron ladders lead straight to the sky. Danxia landform wonders × ancient temple from a thousand years ago × a fairyland of clouds and mist. There are so few people that you can have the entire mountain to yourself. Avoid the crowds this Labor Day and come be an immortal at this underrated 5A scenic area 📍 · Three epic routes 🧗🏻: 1⃣ Pilgrimage Route (2-hr express) Visitor Center → Kai Ming Temple → One-Line Sky → Xia Ke Pavilion (ancient temple incense + otherworldly canyon views) 2⃣ Heavenly Ladder Route (3-hr immersive) Visitor Center → Eighteen Bends → Sky-Reaching Platform → Lang Peak Cliff (90° iron ladder challenge! More exciting than the plank road on Mount Hua) 3⃣ Panoramic Route (4-hr deep dive) Visitor Center → Yanxia Pavilion → Xu Nu Lake → Ya Peak → Ling Peak (unlock the full view of the Three Rock Formations + a lake in the clouds) · Five divine photo spots 📸: 1⃣ Lang Peak Heavenly Ladder Grasp the iron chains and climb the almost vertical cliff face! When the clouds and mist flow through your fingers, you'll really feel like you're cultivating immortality (it's recommended to take a photo of your back for a super story-like feel) 2⃣ Ya Peak Viewing Platform The best observation point for a panoramic view of the Three Rock Formations! Especially after the rain, when the clouds and mist surround the three solitary peaks, it's like a scene straight out of the Heavenly Palace in "Journey to the West." 3⃣ Xia Ke Pavilion A treasure spot that Xu Xiake visited three times! Use a wide-angle lens to capture people and the One-Line Sky in the same frame. The cliffs on both sides are as shocking as if they were split open by Pangu's axe. 4⃣ Xu Nu Lake Reflection Squat by the lake at noon on a sunny day for a mirrored reflection! The three Danxia peaks are reflected into a spectacle of six peaks. You can take National Geographic-level photos straight from your phone. 5⃣ Kai Ming Temple Red Wall The ancient temple from a thousand years ago has its own enchantment! Stand in front of the temple and take photos of people with the incense burner smoke. The Zen atmosphere is better than the temples in Kyoto. · Accommodation Recommendation 🏡: Highly recommend "Jianglang Shanju" at the entrance of the scenic area!
