Losing All Strength and Means at Tiantai Mountain

The most worthwhile historical ancient city to visit so far—Tiantai Mountain, nothing compares! Even Li Bai would visit twice! A 5A scenic area with no entrance fee, no noisy crowds, no artificial photo spots like other tourist attractions—perfect for casual, relaxing getaways. 👉Two-day tour route: D1: Guoqing Temple - Tongbai Palace - Tiantai Mountain Grand Waterfall D2: Mingyan Ancient Temple - Hou'an Village ✅Guoqing Temple: Monks grow their own crops, thousand-year-old Sui Dynasty pagoda, Qianlong-era "Longevity Without Boundaries" bronze incense burner, white marble guardian lions at the entrance, Wang Xizhi's original "Goose" calligraphy, and the thousand-year-old "Fenggan Bridge" single-arch stone bridge ✅Tongbai Palace: Ancestral court of Southern Taoism, filming location for "Tiantai Mountain," Wang Chongyang's cultivation site, the only remaining Song Dynasty Taoist architectural complex in southern China, where you can see Taoist masters teaching ✅Tiantai Mountain Grand Waterfall: China's tallest waterfall with a 325-meter drop, rare high-drop tiered waterfall group with water access, standing beneath it is breathtaking ✅Mingyan Ancient Temple: Sui Dynasty temple beneath a cliff, surrounded by sheer cliffs on three sides, quiet and mysterious ✅Hou'an Village: Ancient village surrounded by mountains and water, few people and peaceful, feels like a hidden paradise 🏠Accommodation: Most Tiantai Mountain attractions are in the county town, so staying there is convenient for dining and transportation 🚗Transportation: Take high-speed rail to Tiantai Mountain Station; all major attractions except Mingyan Ancient Temple and Hou'an Village have shuttle services from the station, and taxis are readily available 📣Travel tips: 1. No need to buy incense outside; temples provide three sticks of clean incense 2. The scenic areas are quite large, so wear comfortable shoes 3. If you go to Guoqing Temple before 6 AM, you can see a herd of cattle crossing the ancient bridge
