Fujian's hidden "Hometown of the Great Sage" is absolutely breathtaking! Reaching the 1305-meter summit to see the sea of clouds is simply magical

Shunchang, Nanping, Fujian is truly amazing! This is the veritable "Hometown of the Great Sage," where you can feel the strong Great Sage culture everywhere ✨ Historical records show that the worship of the Great Sage here actually predates "Journey to the West" by over 200 years! How surprising and unexpected is that?! 🏔️ The most awe-inspiring spot has to be Baoshan Scenic Area! The 1305-meter altitude is no joke~ 🔸 Hiking tips: ▫️ It's all stairs! All of them! Wear anti-slip sports shoes ▫️ Round trip takes about 4 hours, so plan enough time ▫️ Be sure to bring plenty of water and energy-boosting snacks Though you'll be drenched in sweat 💦, when you finally reach the summit, the rolling sea of clouds is like a fairyland on earth! Sunlight piercing through the mist and shining on the endless green mountains makes all the effort worth it! Why isn't this place more popular?! 🌿 Shanghu Village at the foot of the mountain is a summer retreat paradise! ▫️ Mid-summer temperatures are only 20°C ▫️ The village is tranquil and quaint ▫️ Perfect for zoning out and relaxing Gather a few friends and come here to sit and watch the clouds ☁️—what's the experience like? The answer is: the feeling of letting all your worries drift away with the clouds is simply amazing! PS: It's said there are tons of Great Sage cultural relics here—interested folks can explore more~
