Chenzhou Shenxianzhai Travel Guide Shenxianzhai is adjacent to Feitianshan Scenic Area. You can navigate to Chenzhou "Shenxianzhai" to get there. It is located about 2 km inside Wayao Ping. Vehicles entering and leaving Wayao Ping need to pay a parking fee. Although I have been to Wayao Ping before, I didn't know that Shenxianzhai was hidden here, so I missed it. This time, I came here again. If you climb Shenxianzhai first, then stroll around Wayao Ping, and finally take a boat ride on the river, it will be a pleasant journey. As for why this place is called "Shenxianzhai", I have not found a definite answer. Perhaps it is a name artificially created to enhance the publicity effect. It was originally a privately contracted forest farm, which was later developed and constructed. It gives people an overall feeling of being exquisite and beautiful, like a small family. The scenic area is not large. It takes about 20 minutes to climb from the foot of the mountain to the top. If you want to sweat profusely, it may not be enough. Its main highlight is the viewing platform. From here, you can see the river like a green ribbon (especially when the boat crosses the river and ripples, it is even more unique), and you can also enjoy the open scenery of the mountains. The viewing platform is spacious, about 30 to 40 square meters, and there are lounge chairs. In summer, the cool breeze is blowing. It is very pleasant to take a back photo or take a rest here. However, in winter, because it is open from north to south, the cold wind is howling. If you don't lean on the handrail to bask in the sun, you will feel a little cool. This is a great place to watch the sunrise and sunset. For photography enthusiasts, it must be easy to take great photos. After leaving the viewing platform, turn right to the top of the mountain and then return. This path adds a lot of fun. Although the viewing platform is beautiful, it is in a semi-enclosed space, which always makes people feel unsatisfied. When you reach the top of the mountain, although there is no such heroic spirit of "seeing all the mountains", there is also a sense of openness, as if you are connected with the world. If the scenery of the viewing platform is like an eternal poem, then the scenery after reaching the top is like a song full of vigor, which makes people feel refreshed. Note: Shenxianzhai is a privately contracted forest land. There is a simple bamboo gate at the entrance, and there is a contact number on the door. After arriving, call, and someone will come to open the door in a few minutes. The fee is CNY 10 per person. Call in advance when going down the mountain, and someone will come to open the door and let you go.

Feitian Mountain in Chenzhou is a paradise on earth that leaves visitors enchanted. The park features unique Danxia landforms, with mountains and rocks displaying vibrant red hues that contrast beautifully with the emerald green river, creating a stunning 'red rocks and green water' landscape. The mountains stretch endlessly, with peaks connected and ravines crisscrossing, showcasing both exquisite craftsmanship and grand magnificence. The Ming Dynasty traveler Xu Xiake once praised Feitian Mountain, saying 'Every inch of land is beautiful, and every mountain is unique.' The Cui River in Feitian Mountain is picturesque, with clear waters winding through the mountains. In the early morning, mist often rises from the river, as if draping the landscape in a thin veil, creating a scene similar to the misty Xiaodong River. Visitors can take a boat ride and feel as if they are in a fairyland. The park not only boasts captivating natural scenery but also rich historical and cultural heritage. Ancient temples hidden in the mountains exude a sense of antiquity, allowing visitors to appreciate the beauty while also experiencing the profound history and Buddhist culture. Additionally, Feitian Mountain offers diverse tourist experiences. Visitors can hike up the mountains, enjoying the various unique rocks and vegetation along the way, marveling at nature's craftsmanship; they can also take a sightseeing bus for a leisurely tour of the park; or experience the thrill of water rafting, enjoying the cool river and summer fun.

There is also the "Thousand-Year Suspended Coffin" on the hillside by the river, which remains an unsolved mystery. 🎈Feitian Mountain combines mountains, water, forests, and caves into one. The peaks here are lifelike, with some resembling animals and some objects, rolling and undulating, and were praised by Xu Xiake, the king of backpackers in the Ming Dynasty, as 'no inch of land is not beautiful, no mountain is not strange'. ⛩️After visiting the top of the mountain, head down in another direction to the boat dock.

Feitian Mountain, located in Chenzhou, Hunan, is a typical Danxia landform. Xu Xiake, a traveler in the Ming Dynasty, once visited this mountain and exclaimed: "Every inch of land here is beautiful, and every mountain is strange." This place is called "Every inch of land is beautiful". When you go up the mountain, you don't see undulating peaks, but when you look down, you can see crisscrossing gullies, mountains surrounded by water, and exquisite rocks. Go down the mountain and take a cruise to tour the Cuijiang River. There are red cliffs on both sides, graceful green bamboos and dense ancient trees. It is not the Lijiang River, but it is better than the Lijiang River. Feitian beautiful place, three thousand beauties, waiting for you to embrace! Traditional Chinese

When you get to Chenzhou, should you go to Feitian Mountain tourist area or Gao Yiling first. Honestly, if you have enough time, it's recommended not to miss these two spots, then go to Feitian Mountain before going to Gao Yiling~ Although the terrain is somewhat similar, there will still be different feelings.

Chenzhou Tourism|Shenxianzhai On days when you can't go out and play, come and see Chenzhou tourism. Shenxianzhai is really a very niche attraction, maybe so niche that only locals know about it. I went there during this year's Spring Festival and was really attracted by the cover picture. Lying in the rock cave and watching the boat rowing on the green river is too comfortable. It really fits the name of Shenxianzhai!!! And watching the sunset is also a unique experience. Even in winter, you can still see the green bamboo sea along the way, and the river is also green. You can throw yourself into the embrace of nature without reservation. Before reaching the cave, there is a wide viewing platform where you can take pictures of the peculiarly shaped mountains on the opposite side. Continue to follow the sign and you will reach the cave with lounge chairs. If you go there, just navigate to Shenxianzhai on the map. Because it is the local residents who are responsible for the maintenance of the mountain road, they usually lock it and charge a 10 yuan door opening fee. The entrance sign has a phone number for opening the door, and you usually don't have to wait long. Before going up the mountain, he also specifically reminded us to pay attention to safety and not to light fires on the mountain. Everyone should also pay attention not to litter. Welcome everyone to Chenzhou to experience the fairy days
