Things to do in Jinzhai

Take a bus to the entrance, then hike up and down for a total of 4 hours (less than 4 hours for those in good physical condition; expect double the time for children or the elderly). It is recommended to walk along the waterfall. If you don't want to walk down after reaching the top, take the cable car (because the other side is steep and the scenery is not as good as the waterfall side).

It's worth a visit. It's a relaxing and enjoyable trip. The canyon scenery is beautiful and picturesque, with many rare plants. The waterfalls cascade down like flowing hair, making it a place you'll want to return to again and again.

This was originally the Meishan Reservoir Hydropower Station, nestled among mountains. The dam is magnificent and imposing, construction of which began in 1954. Building such a grand project in those days was remarkable, and many leaders have inspected it, including Chairman Mao, Deng Xiaoping, Qiao Shi, and Wen Jiabao. Tickets can be purchased online. After purchasing tickets, you can drive to the paid parking lot below the ticket gate (10 yuan per entry) or park outside the ticket office for free. It's about a ten-minute walk. Here's a tip: the platform on the steps on the hillside to the left of the ticket office is an excellent spot for taking photos of the reservoir. If you only want to take photos, you don't need to pay extra to enter. Overall, the scenery here is beautiful and magnificent, well worth a visit.

Mazongling has a high density of vegetation, and the waterfalls and mountain streams are very spectacular during the flood season, especially the Feitian Waterfall, which is known as the largest waterfall in East China, with a drop of more than 60 meters, falling from the sky. The entire scenic area is free, and the plank road facilities along the way are complete. As an important part of the Martin Highway self-driving autumn tour, autumn and summer are the peak seasons.

A true wonderland! Only after ascending to Shenxianju (Shenxianju) can you truly understand what "paradise on earth" means! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5 points) I made a special trip to Shenxianju, the centerpiece of Tiantangzhai Scenic Area, and I have to say it was truly worth the trip! Photos online had already captivated me, but only after visiting it in person did I truly experience what it means to "travel within a painting." Upon entering the scenic area, I was struck by the towering peaks and rocks. The towering cliffs, each in a unique shape, some resembling immortals pointing the way, others like a divine tortoise asking questions of the heavens, instantly captivated my imagination. Climbing along the meticulously paved plank road, every step was a breathtaking sight. Clouds and mist often linger on the mountainside, making the entire valley appear and disappear, resembling a fairyland. No wonder it's called "Shenxianju"! Most breathtaking are the high-altitude plank roads suspended from the cliffs. Walking on it, you'll feel a bottomless abyss beneath your feet and a vast sea of ​​clouds before you. Although your legs may feel a little weak, the intertwined feeling of thrill and magnificence is an unforgettable experience! The view is incredibly broad, and your heart feels as if it were cleansed by the vastness of the universe. The scenic area is well-managed and serviced, with clear signage and comprehensive safety measures, ensuring a safe and secure experience. While the climb is somewhat tiring, the scenery and fresh air along the way make every step inspiring. In short, the scenery at Shenxianju is unique, combining the majestic and rugged mountains of the north with the graceful and beautiful landscapes of the south. If you love nature and seek breathtaking visual experiences, this is an unmissable destination! Highly recommended to all those who love travel!

The overall rafting process was good, and the children had a lot of fun. The first few sections were more exciting, and the boat would be flooded with water. There was no need to scoop out water. After passing a few steep slopes, it was flat, and then scoop water, otherwise it would still be full. The gentle section at the back slowed down and needed to be paddled by yourself, but it was also suitable for children to have water fights. Overall, it was good, but you had to hold your things well and pay attention to safety. It was easy to drop things when you encountered too steep slopes. The photos were taken on the gentle section. You still had to hold on to the too exciting places, and prepare a waterproof bag for your phone. Overall, if you didn't have a water fight and kept paddling, it would probably take an hour to finish. If you stopped and played in the middle, it would probably take an hour and a half. Rowing requires two people to cooperate, and poor cooperation will also be slow🤣 In addition, there is no place to wash downstream, so you have to take a ferry to the upstream entrance to wash and change clothes. The ferry costs 10 yuan per person.

The main peak of Dabie Mountain, Baimajian, is 1,777 meters above sea level. Surrounding it are Zhutoujian, Daoshijian, Siwangshan, Tian'ejian and other peaks with an altitude of more than 1,500 meters. In addition, Dabie Mountain is also famous for its rich and diverse terrain, canyons, lakes reflecting the sky, waterfalls everywhere, high mountains and long rivers. The main peak scenic area of ​​Dabie Mountain has been recognized by the Ministry of Land and Resources as the Baimajian Park of Dabie Mountain National Geopark.

The canyon is also OK, but the entrance is a bit steep. The scenery is basically pristine, with small rivers flowing, green mountains and rocks, and occasionally a pavilion and a bamboo bridge. It's still good to walk around and take a look.

The scenic area is relatively unknown, located in Xijiuhua Mountain in Jinzhai County, which is actually in the heart of the Dabie Mountains. It boasts beautiful mountains and clear waters, fresh air, shady trees, and babbling springs, making it perfect for a stroll. The infrastructure is complete, and parking is convenient, making it a great place to relax.
