Compared to Huangshan, I prefer this Anhui Taoist mountain for spiritual practice

Folks! I've discovered a super treasure travel destination! The people of southern Anhui are so low-key. I must recommend this seriously underrated mountain to the world! Everyone has heard of "No need to see other mountains after returning from Huangshan," but few people know the reputation of "The most beautiful Danxia landform in Southeast China". As a Taoist paradise, with its Danxia landform, cliffside ancient villages, and misty Hengjiang River, it is full of ancient Huizhou charm. It's the perfect place to come for a vacation this season! Quickly save this super detailed 2-day, 1-night travel guide 👇 👍🏻Reasons to recommend: Qiyun Mountain not only has stunning natural scenery, but also the Danxia landform is breathtaking. The red rock veins have been eroded and carved over millions of years, like a masterpiece of nature! Moreover, it has a profound historical and cultural heritage. It is a Taoist paradise with many historical sites and cliffside stone carvings. There are also super rich night tour activities in the evening, with 20 intangible cultural heritage performances taking turns, which can be called an adult's Disney. It is definitely a new landmark for night tours in Huangshan! 🗺Attraction introduction: Qiyun Mountain Resort is located in Qiyun Mountain Town, Xiuning County, Huangshan City, Anhui Province. There are many attractions worth visiting here! The True Immortal Cave has hundreds of cliffside stone carvings. The giant inscription "Heaven Opens Divine Beauty" carved by Wu Fanbo of the Ming Dynasty is carved on the cliff of Bai Zhang, which is super shocking; Yuehua Tianjie is an ancient Huizhou village in the clouds. When the morning mist is lingering, it is like a floating fairy market in a fairy tale drama. If you are tired from shopping, you can also taste local delicacies here. Tianguanfu also provides free tea; Yuxu Palace is a Taoist temple in the clouds built on the Zixiao Cliff. It is said that Tang Bohu once lived here in seclusion and left behind authentic inscriptions. The vermilion-colored palaces and pavilions complement the reddish-brown cliffs, showing the "harmony between man and nature"; Fang La Village is on a steep hilltop with a white house, offering excellent views and stunning aerial photography; the red rock vein landscape of Danxia Gallery is even more ingenious, and every photo is a blockbuster! 🚗Attraction transportation: The most convenient way is to take the high-speed train to Huangshan North Station. After arriving at the station, you can choose to take a bus or take a taxi directly. It takes about 30 minutes to directly reach Qiyun Mountain Resort. The transportation is still very convenient. 🗺Travel route: Day ❶: Check in first. It is recommended to stay at Qiyun Mountain Resort Hotel, which is very close to the mountain cableway, the cruise terminal, and the visitor center. It is super convenient to go for a night tour in the evening.
