莲子(李辉):“Beautiful scenery. Ancient charm. - Cultural landscape: Wudang Mountain boasts a vast complex of ancient buildings, such as the Taihe Palace on the Golden Summit. Its overall layout capitalizes on the towering imposingness of Tianzhu Peak, following the imperial architectural style and highlighting theocracy. Nanyan Palace, the most beautiful of Wudang Mountain's "Thirty-Six Rocks," boasts a dragon head incense towering over a deep ravine, earning it the reputation of "the world's finest incense." Zixiao Palace, nestled against Zhanqi Peak, embraces the sun and forms a design of two dragons playing with a pearl, embodying the imperial grandeur. Taizipo boasts four remarkable sights: "four gates within one mile, nine-bend Yellow River walls, one pillar and twelve beams, and ten miles of fragrant osmanthus."”

Anonymous user:“I came here to witness firsthand the greatness and impact of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project's Middle Route, which provides water for industrial and agricultural production and daily life in Henan, Hebei, Beijing, Tianjin, and other regions. Salute to the builders!”
玲zjbcyl:“It is best to go to the Golden Summit by cable car so that you have time and energy to visit other attractions. We walked together (my legs hurt for a few days after returning home, so we didn’t go to other attractions). The cable car was easy to go up and down.”
Opening hours: 8:00 AM-6:00 PM (admission ends at 4:30 PM)
86338633:“Located in Qiaoshang Township, Fang County, Shiyan City, Hubei Province, the 4A scenic spot is a tourist destination with many fascinating attractions, such as Huancai Gorge, Yeyu Beach, Dojun Cave, Longdan Cliff, and waterfalls. The scenery in the valley is majestic, mysterious, steep, and turbulent. It is a good place for mountain climbing, exploration, and rafting. In addition, Yeren Valley also has steep and magnificent natural landscapes such as Shoutao Peak, Wuxing Mountain, Longtou Rock, and Yudai Mountain. Yeren Cave is a large karst cave on the cliff, and Yehua Dang (Doujun Cave Reservoir), Longxu Waterfall Group, Yeyutan, etc. are also good places to go. This is a tourist destination for viewing flowers in spring, escaping the summer heat, viewing the scenery in late autumn, and chanting snow in winter.”
M37***75:“Overall it exceeded my expectations, it was beautiful, but I have to complain about the main performance of Wudang Dream, it was rubbish, but the fireworks show and drone show made me feel that the ticket was worth it. I really strongly suggest to the business to quickly rearrange the main performance of Wudang Dream, it was too ugly, it was simply the rubbish show I have ever seen. Everyone said that the drones and fireworks were worth the ticket, so don't put your expectations on the performance, otherwise you will be extremely disappointed”
南漂北泊:“Taiji Lake is actually a corner of Danjiang Reservoir. The tour guide on the cruise ship is very good at telling stories, and it really fits Taiji. After all, it is at the foot of Wudang Mountain, so it is natural to name it Taiji. Although it was a cloudy day, the beauty of the mountains and waters could not be stopped. There was a slight drawback. The glass shell of the cruise ship was fully enclosed, and the water vapor made the glass windows frosted. Passengers could only take turns standing on the rear deck to view the scenery. The space was limited, the angle was limited, but the scenery was unlimited.”
Opening hours: 7:30 AM-5:30 PM (admission ends at 5:30 PM)
山风小甜饼:“Wudang Golden Summit is the most worthwhile place to visit in Wudang Mountain. Especially after climbing the steep stairs with trembling legs, listening to the crows' calls, and seeing the small house on the top of the mountain, you will feel emotional. What's more, the Golden Summit is built with oriental aesthetics, very beautiful and noble.”
浪漫的追:“Yuxu Palace, the palace hidden at the foot of Wudang Mountain, is really shocking! Yuxu Palace preserves the "three dynasties and five gates" establishment during the Yongle period. The door nails of the Yu Palace Gate are mostly Hengjiu Road and Shujiu Road. The nine-way door nails are the unique logo of the Royal Palace, symbolizing the supremacy of imperial power. It is said that Wudang Mountain has a total of 12 royal stele pavilions, and Yuxu Palace has 4.”
Opening hours: 8:00 AM-4:30 PM(Tickets available until 4:00 PM)
_We***39:“The Wulong River Scenic Area is divided into upstream and downstream. The total distance between the upstream and downstream is 10 kilometers. Most tourists enter and exit from the downstream, because the Wulong River Waterfall and the high-altitude glass plank road are concentrated in the downstream. My husband is quite stubborn. He insisted on walking the 10km, so he chose to enter the scenic area from the upstream. It was very cool along the way, walking in the mountain stream. Finally, the tour ended from the downstream. I saw the waterfall and the high-altitude glass plank road, which needs to be charged separately. The waterfall is very spectacular.”
思0206:“The scenery in the mountains is beautiful, the air is fresh, and the cave is very cool. Be careful with children and wear non-slip clothes. The natural cave stone is quite special. There is a stream outside, and you can play in the water. The children are very happy.”

_in***17:“This place is a little off the beaten track, but the service is very good. The black pepper beef is very delicious. Dinner for two is 104, not expensive at all. The watermelon is restocked very quickly. The soup for the double-boiled pot is clear soup and spicy soup respectively! So considerate~”
水漫三楼:“This old taste is also a very popular restaurant in Wudang Mountain Town. It has a very good reputation and the cooking level of several special dishes is always online. I had two meals of wild vegetable fried eggs. This time I changed the variety and fried pork with thatch roots. I also ordered a portion of the signature Wudang Mountain white fish. If you want a light one, choose steamed. Wudang Mountain white fish is actually called Danjiangkou Culter bream. It has many spines on the back and tail, and the belly is fat and tender.”
大行长:“After coming down from Wudang Mountain Scenic Area, it is a good choice for dining. Many tourists are reluctant to eat in the scenic area, which is expensive and not tasty. However, after leaving the scenic area, you can see Shangshanfang on the roadside into the county town. Although the area of the store is not large, eating some bamboo shoots, wild leeks and other fresh plants is very delicious, and the cost performance is very high.”

曹 操:“The restaurant features Hubei Wudang Mountain. The decoration environment is very high-end. The dishes are actually quite average. It seems that other people's evaluation is not particularly good. The taste is salty and fresh, and people from both the north and the south can get used to it.”
M31***76:“The environment of this restaurant is very good, very clean and tidy. The food is not only beautiful in appearance, but more importantly, it tastes great, with good color and flavor.”
小—小玩偶_:“After tasting it many times, it is still worth it.
The taste is just right.
The fish is fresh and delicious, and I can't leave without it.
It is a national chain brand with unique features, and I am very satisfied every time.
It is worth recommending.”
_in***63:“It's pretty good, the taste is good! The taste is quite appetizing, and the food is served quickly, but you need to queue up during holidays...”
莱特岛荀彧:“The beef with three fresh vegetables is as delicious as always, the sweet and sour pork tenderloin is just the right amount of sweet and sour, especially the pot stickers, which are the signature dish. I always eat them and take them away at the same time, haha, it's worth recommending!”
