Watching the winding Nine-Bend Creek from a bamboo raft in Wuyi Mountain

Wuyi Mountain healing trip 🚣‍♀️ Bamboo raft drifting is the soul of the tour! Sitting on the bamboo raft drifting with the current, the mountains and waters reflect each other, and the mood becomes clear and bright～ A must-check-in in Wuyi Mountain is the Nine-Bend Creek bamboo raft drifting, which is truly amazing! The whole 90-minute slow journey lets you listen to the raft worker’s narration of legends on both banks while experiencing up close the artistic conception of "a boat sailing on the green waves, people traveling in a painting." If you’re lucky, you might see egrets skimming the water surface and fish leaping out of the green waves in lively scenes✨ Tianyou Peak, King Peak, Jade Maiden Peak... each has its own characteristics. From the ninth bend to the first bend, each has its unique charm. This more than one-hour tour really lets you appreciate the elegance of Wuyi Mountain, no wonder there is a saying, "Guilin’s landscape is the best under heaven, but not as good as a small hill in Wuyi." The depiction of "the boat sailing on the water, people traveling in a painting" is truly fitting. 📍Useful Information Address: Jiǔqū Creek Bamboo Raft Ticket Center, Wuyishan City, Nanping Opening Hours: 7:30-9:10 / 12:20-14:30 (Rafting stops during midday high temperature) Ticket Price: 225 RMB/person (It’s recommended to book in advance on Trip.com for a better deal) 💡Tips for the trip: 1.
