2025 Yiyang Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in September)

Facing the blue sea in the morning and the green Wuzhou in the evening, Xu Xiake did not deceive me. This is Jiangxi's Little Guilin, truly a place visited by the first generation of tourists in the Celestial Empire. It's niche but a treasure, a masterpiece of nature's craftsmanship! It features unique Danxia landforms, with endless Zen and beauty between the mountains and waters. Transportation Guide 🚌 🚅 Take the high-speed train to Yiyang Station. After exiting, you can choose to take a taxi (about 20 minutes, around 30-40 RMB) or take bus No. 2 (3 RMB per person, 30 minutes) directly to the scenic area. 🚗 If driving, navigate directly to Guifeng Scenic Area parking lot. Parking fee is 10 RMB/day, with additional charges for overnight parking. 🎫 Tickets: 60 RMB + sightseeing bus 20 RMB + boat 80 RMB (can be combined as needed)! 2️⃣ Days 1️⃣ Night Itinerary 📌 Day 1️⃣: Painted boat bamboo raft tour of Guifeng Lake ➡️ Green Wild Wizard Xu Xiake creek tracing ➡️ Large-scale live mountain and water performance & iron flower show Xu Xiake online features a Green Wild Wizard creek tracing segment, with mist and swaying tree shadows creating a fairy-tale atmosphere, as if stepping into a storybook world. The Wobo Bridge dock in the scenic area offers traditional Chinese bamboo raft photo opportunities, resembling a landscape painting of Jiangxi's Little Guilin, with emerald lake water perfect for photos 📸. Day 2️⃣: Mountain climbing 🧗 Personally tested 3.5-hour 6 km hiking route 👇🏻 Bishui Danxin Hotel → Thousand-year-old camphor tree → Aoyu Peak viewing platform → One Line Sky → Three-tier Guifeng → General’s Tower service point → Sandao Mouth service point → Camel Hump viewing platform → Jinzhong Peak → Hero Slope At the top of Jinzhong Peak, there’s a surprise: a cute rocking horse. Paired with the good weather and Miyazaki-style cartoon clouds, anyone who comes has to play the game “Dad’s dad is grandpa” at least once. If you want to hike outdoors in summer but worry about the heat, choose the Xu Xiake line (3 hours): Visitor Center ➠ Divine Turtle Welcome ➠ Century-old Path ➠ Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers ➠ General’s Tower ➠ Hero Slope ➠ Ziwei Garden ➠ Guifeng Lake. This route perfectly meets summer hiking needs, quickly covering the core scenic spots. For those wanting a deeper experience, choose the full route. Although it takes longer, it captures all the beautiful scenery of the area. Accommodation Guide 🏨 You can stay directly inside the scenic area. Bishui Danxin Hotel has a Republic of China style, with wooden furniture and vintage chandeliers, creating a Republic-era atmosphere. Open your window in the morning to see stunning mountain views. Yulang Wenjin is also very nice, a quiet standalone building with strong new Chinese style charm, featuring wood carvings, screens, and blue brick and tile walls, feeling like a journey through a thousand years. All accommodations offer shuttle service, and you can also watch the large-scale live mountain and water performance at 7 PM, featuring the intangible cultural heritage iron flower show. Digital holography combined with Guifeng’s mountains and waters proves that traditional Chinese style is truly the top trend.

Compared to Jingdezhen, I prefer this small town recommended by National Geographic • • • • • • Recently, Nanyi visited Shangrao in Jiangxi and discovered it's truly an underrated gem for travel Wuyuan is like a pastoral painting, with Hui-style architecture complementing the rapeseed flowers The unique Danxia landforms of Guifeng showcase rocks in various shapes Experience the charm of traditional culture through Wunvzhou's intangible heritage While Gexian Village feels like a real-life fantasy world •

👍🏻Recommendation: Seriously, I highly recommend Guifeng Scenic Area in Yiyang, Shangrao👏! This UNESCO World Heritage mountain peak is absolutely breathtaking! Compared to the crowded Wuyuan and Jingdezhen, this place is less crowded and more unique, offering a truly fulfilling travel experience💯. If you're looking to avoid the May Day holiday crowds, this is the perfect choice. Just go for it! It's a UNESCO Global Geopark, and even Xu Xiake, a famous traveler, praised it as being no less impressive than Yandang Mountain, one of the top ten famous mountains at the time. The geological formations here are steep and unique, a rare Danxia peak forest landform in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai regions, guaranteed to amaze you✨. 🗺About the Scenic Area: Yiyang Guifeng is a true gem of a mountain🎈. Its uniqueness lies in its distinctive Danxia peak forest landform, with all sorts of strangely shaped peaks standing tall, like works of art carefully sculpted by nature. There are many must-see attractions here, such as Hao Han Po (Hero Slope), a stairway carved out of a large rock face. Walking on it feels like being on another planet, and after climbing it, you'll feel like a true hero😎. Then there's Luotuo Feng (Camel Peak), the highest peak in the scenic area. Its 90-degree vertical ladder will make your heart race and scream with excitement just by looking at it😱. Also, don't miss Guifeng Lake. Boating on the lake🚤 offers a unique perspective of the bizarre peaks and rocks, creating a feeling of discovering a hidden world. 🚗Getting There: Transportation is quite convenient🚗. If you choose to take the high-speed train, Yiyang Station is a good option. It's only 1.8 hrs from Hangzhou, 3 hrs from Shanghai, and 3.5 hrs from Nanjing🚄. After arriving, a 15-min taxi ride will take you directly to the scenic area. If you prefer driving, it's about a 2-hr drive from Wuyuan or Jingdezhen. 🗺Suggested Routes: There are three classic hiking routes in the scenic area🧗. After entering the main gate, take the sightseeing bus to Suochun Cave to start your hike. The overall difficulty is not high. Even someone with low energy like me found it much easier than climbing Huangshan or the west slope of Changbai Mountain. 1. Shengui Trail: Guihua Garden → Jiangjun Tower → Hao Han Po → Ziwei Garden, Difficulty: ⭐⭐, 5 km, approx. 2.5 hrs. This route is relatively easy, suitable for those who are not used to hiking or for families with children or seniors. 2. Xiake Trail: Shengui Greeting → Bainian Path → Tiannü Sanhua → Jiangjun Tower → Hao Han Po → Ziwei Garden, Difficulty: ⭐⭐⭐, 8 km, approx. 3.5 hrs. This route is a bit longer, but the scenery along the way is more diverse. 3. Full Trail: Guihua Garden → Jiangjun Tower → Sandao Pass → Nantian Pillar → Luotuo Peak → Qingshuitang, Difficulty: ⭐⭐⭐⭐, 10 km, approx. 4.5 hrs. This route is more challenging, but it offers more scenic views, suitable for those who are physically fit and enjoy a challenge. If you want to take stunning photos📸, I recommend this route: Ziwei Garden → Hao Han Po → Sandao Pass → Rest Pavilion → Camel Peak Viewing Platform → West Coast Viewing Platform → Eighteen Arhats Rest Stop → Glass Walkway → Camel Peak Service Point → Slide down the mountain → Qingshuitang, Difficulty: ⭐⭐⭐⭐, 10 km, 4.5 hrs. The scenery along this route is incredibly photogenic, with stunning photo opportunities at every turn. 🍱Food Recommendations: Unfortunately, the original text doesn't mention any food😔. However, once you're there, you can try the local specialties of Yiyang, such as Yiyang rice cakes, which are famous for their soft and chewy texture and various cooking methods. They are delicious whether fried or boiled. You might even discover more hidden culinary treasures. 💰Cost: The entrance fee is CNY 60🎫. A combined ticket costs CNY 160 and includes the sightseeing bus and boat ride. I think the combined ticket is worth it if you have enough time, as it allows you to explore the scenic area more comprehensively. 📌Other Tips: 1. There are no restaurants in the scenic area, but there are a few rest stops where you can buy instant noodles, sausages, and other simple snacks. It's best to bring your own snacks🥪 to keep your energy levels up. 2. The mountain trails are generally easy to walk on, suitable for people of all ages, but it's still recommended to wear comfortable athletic shoes👟 for a more comfortable hike. Also, be sure to wear sun-protective clothing, as the sun can be quite strong in the mountains🌞. 3. Never take the emergency trails blocked off by the scenic area. Safety first! Always follow the designated routes🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️. 4. Guifeng Scenic Area is open from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm. Remember to plan your time accordingly🕙.

Jiangxi is home to many breathtaking sceneries beyond the well-known Jingdezhen and Wuyuan. Among them is the Yiyang Guifeng Scenic Area, a Danxia landform that has been recognized as a World Natural Heritage site. The area boasts uniquely shaped peaks and rocks that appear as if they were meticulously carved, offering views that rival those of Huangshan but with fewer crowds, making for an unparalleled travel experience. If you're looking to escape the hustle and bustle and immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature, this is the perfect destination. Get ready to explore with this comprehensive travel guide!

In the vast landscapes of Jiangxi, there lies a hidden gem that resembles a fairyland—Guifeng. It may not have the fame of Sanqing Mountain in Shangrao, but it boasts a unique tranquility and beauty. Entering the Guifeng Scenic Area feels like stepping into a magical art hall crafted by nature itself. The mountains here are not high but come in various shapes. Some resemble lively animals, leaping among the mountains; others look like elegant fairies, standing gracefully. The magnificent and steep Danxia landforms are fully displayed here, leaving people in awe. For tourists who want to explore deeply, you can choose this route: start from Guihuayuan, pass through General Building, Sandao Pass, and Eighteen Arhats Rest Point, climb to the top of Jinzhong Peak, stroll along the mountain path, challenge the glass walkway, bravely climb Camel Peak, and finally reach Qingshuitang. If you are traveling with the elderly and children, you might opt for a simplified route: from Guihuayuan to General Building, then through Hero Slope to Ziyuan Garden. The journey takes about two hours, with scenic spots at every step. The natural landscapes and the ingenious artificial constructions are perfectly integrated. The sturdy and gentle viewing platforms and steps allow you to appreciate the spectacular scenery even when facing steep cliffs without worrying about excessive physical exertion. You can easily enjoy the trip even with a baby. When you reach the top of the mountain, the scene of "looking horizontally as a ridge and sideways as a peak, with different views from near and far, high and low" unfolds before your eyes, and you can't help but feel a heroic sentiment of "I will ascend the peak and view all the small mountains at a glance." At that moment, the whole world becomes tranquil, as if time has stopped for this beautiful scenery. Guifeng has many check-in points. Hero Slope lives up to its name, with a road carved out of huge rocks and winding steps leading you forward, allowing you to take the most beautiful photos with Guifeng. On Jinzhong Peak, the full view of the spiritual and beautiful Guifeng is intoxicating. Camel Peak, the highest peak in the scenic area, has a 90-degree vertical ladder that makes you scream at a glance, challenging the limits of courage. In Yixiantian, the hundred-meter walkway between two peaks brings a thrilling visual experience. The mountain path built around the mountain feels like an endless staircase. The water park is a paradise for children, with activities like jet skiing and surfing making parent-child activities extremely fun, achieving a perfect combination of mountain and water enjoyment. Don't forget to take photos. The Xiake Line Rest Pavilion, Divine Turtle Welcoming Guests, and Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers are also must-see spots. Here, every scene and atmosphere may become your next great photo. We stayed at Bishui Danxin, which is very close to the scenic area. The European-style courtyard has a unique charm, and the host is particularly enthusiastic. There's also good news: Jiangxi residents can enjoy this beautiful scenery until August 31. Come to Guifeng and start a secret mountain journey through time and space!

You guys get it! I just got back with my kid from this UN-certified Danxia secret realm in Jiangxi.

The middle layer of the Three-Tiered Turtle, the "baby-carrying turtle," is so cute it melts your heart. Teach your kid to count how many "wrinkles" are on its shell (they're actually hundreds of millions of years of sedimentary rock layers!). 👉"Xiake Route" is a must for curious kids: Divine Turtle Welcome wearing Hanfu 👘→Hundred-Year Path touching thousand-year-old moss 📜→Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers looking for petal fossils 🌸→General's Building raising a flag and shouting "I'm here to defend the city" 🗡️ 🎁Easter egg: There are NPCs in the Wizard of Oz section!

They're so cute passersby will ask for the link, and you can also get limited edition turtle stickers and a check-in booklet at the foot of the mountain. 📸【6 Divine Photo Spots for Your Kid to Model】 1️⃣Old Man Peak Cliff: Give your kid a magnifying glass 🔍 to pretend to be an "archaeologist," with a 180-million-year-old Danxia fault in the background. 2️⃣Camel Peak Backlit Shot: Silhouettes instantly turn into martial arts drama protagonists, and the sunset gilding the red rocks is absolutely stunning. 3️⃣At the foot of the Three-Tiered Turtle: Wide-angle lens makes your kid look like a "turtle tamer," and everyone on WeChat Moments will ask if it's an AI effect. 4️⃣Qingshui Lake Raft: Rent a paper umbrella for 10 yuan to take fantasy martial arts blockbusters, the reflection on the lake comes with a built-in PS effect. 5️⃣Skywalk Corner: Red rocks + green trees create a natural oil painting frame, capturing your kid running makes for a super storytelling shot. 6️⃣Crape Myrtle Flower Bush: The light and shadow at 4 PM are breathtakingly beautiful, teach your kid to arrange petals into turtle shapes. 🏨【Secret to Staying in a Fairy Tale】 Highly recommend "Huajianling Bishui Danxin"!

The three supply points on the mountain are 2 km apart, and a hungry kid will make you even more stressed. ✅Sunglasses with a lanyard! The pain of losing two pairs in three days 😭 (the scenic area's small shop sells them for 50 yuan, a huge loss). ✅Take the raft before 8:30 AM!

Boat Ride on Qingshui Lake 🚤 See “Old Man Peak” and “Three-layered Turtle” from a new perspective, with clear water reflecting the Danxia cliffs. Sailing on the blue waves feels like wandering inside a painting. 📸 Hidden shot: When the boat reaches the lake’s center, turn around to capture the mountain’s reflection. Before 10 a.m., the light is soft and the water looks like it’s sprinkled with silver fragments. 2. Camel Peak Sky Ladder 🧗 A nearly vertical suspended staircase embedded in the cliff wall. Climb up using hands and feet, then turn around to see thousands of acres of Danxia stretching to the horizon. The wind carries a sense of conquest! ⚠️ Not for those afraid of heights! Wear non-slip shoes and hold the handrails tightly while climbing slowly. 3. Millennium-old Guifeng Temple 🕯️ A Tang Dynasty ancient temple nestled in a mountain hollow. At the entrance stands a 300-year-old camphor tree with lush branches. Sunlight filters through the leaves onto the bluestone slabs, filling the air with Zen vibes. 💡 Bonus: You can get a “Turtle-shaped Blessing Plaque” (30 RMB each) at the temple. Tie the red ribbon on the ancient camphor tree for an instant vintage filter effect. 4. Glass Walkway Sunset Chase 🌅 Around 6:30-7:00 p.m. (summer), the golden sunset dyes the turtle-back rocks warm red. Standing on the glass walkway watching the Danxia cliffs dance with the setting sun, every photo you take is wallpaper-worthy. 5. Yiyang Opera Intangible Cultural Heritage Performance 🎭 Daily at 2:00 p.m. sharp in the Visitor Center plaza, this 600-year-old “living fossil of opera” features high-pitched yet melodious singing. After listening, you’ll feel like you’ve traveled back to an ancient theater stage. 🍜【Savor the Authentic Flavors of Jiangxi at Guifeng】 🔥 Must-try dishes ▪️ Yiyang Rice Cake: Made from local Dahe rice, stir-fried until sticky and stretchy, wrapped with greens and cured meat — a soul-stirring bite. ▪️ Guifeng Braised Pork: Pork belly with alternating fat and lean layers paired with preserved mustard greens, steamed until tender but not greasy. At a countryside restaurant for 35 RMB per serving, it goes perfectly with two big bowls of rice. 📍 Recommended spot: “Lao Biao Ren Jia” — the owner is warm and welcoming, and after your meal, you get a complimentary homemade bayberry wine, slightly sweet with a hint of tartness, refreshing and palate-cleansing. 🏡【Where to Stay? Three Options to Suit Every Need】 ✔️ Lazy option: Guifeng Holiday Hotel inside the scenic area, with mountain views right outside your window, breakfast included, around 500+ RMB per night, and a 10-minute walk to the attractions. ✔️ Artsy choice: Yiyang Qinlu Daoyuan, featuring Hui-style white walls and black tiles with a book bar, about 150 RMB per person, where you can listen to insects and stargaze at night. ✔️ Best value: Guesthouses at the scenic area entrance, 80-120 RMB per night, clean and tidy, and the owners can help plan your itinerary. 📸【Photo Tips — Dress to Impress】 👗 Outfit suggestions: ▫️ The Danxia backdrop is so striking, wear a white or bright yellow dress. Standing in front of the red cliffs, you’ll look like you have a built-in reflector — fresh and eye-catching. ▫️ Guifeng Temple is perfect for Hanfu (available for rent in the scenic area at 50 RMB/set). Flowing wide sleeves on the bluestone path make you look like you stepped out of an ancient poem. 💬 Interaction time: 1️⃣ “If you could add a tag to Guifeng, what would you write______?” 2️⃣ “Who do you most want to watch the Danxia sunset with? come join this mountain and water rendezvous!” 🚗【Transport & Tips to Avoid Pitfalls — Save Yourself Some Trouble】 📍 Address: Yiyang County, Shangrao, Jiangxi 🚄 High-speed rail is most convenient: Take a taxi for 15 minutes (about 20 RMB) from Yiyang Station directly to the scenic area. 🚌 Bus: From Shangrao East Bus Station to Yiyang, 1.5 hours/25 RMB, then transfer to a local bus to the scenic area. ⚠️ Pitfall warnings: ▪️ Some mountain roads close on rainy days, so check the weather forecast before you go! ▪️ The 35 RMB scenic area shuttle is a must-buy, covering all attractions. Walking alone will tire you out to the point of questioning life. ▪️ Don’t trust “guiding villagers” at the entrance; buy tickets directly at the Visitor Center for a hassle-free experience. 🗺️【2 Days 1 Night Itinerary to Capture the Essence】 Day 1: Visitor Center → Boat ride on Qingshui Lake → Blessing at Guifeng Temple → Climb Camel Peak → Glass Walkway sunset → Stay in the scenic area Day 2: Early morning mist photos → Yiyang Opera performance → Visit Dieshan Academy → Enjoy stir-fried rice cake before heading back Xu Xiake once marveled, “Guifeng on the river is rare in the world.” The beauty here is the wonder of Danxia, the tranquility of the ancient temple, and the vitality of intangible heritage — blended together, making you never want to leave once you arrive. This autumn, why not come to Guifeng for a mountain and water rendezvous~
