Wuyi Mountain | Detailed guide for a leisurely journey through the mountains and waters!
🔥The main scenic area of Wuyi Mountain is free of admission until April 30th this year~ and all public buses in the Wuyi Mountain area are also free of charge.
(At first, getting on the bus without paying felt a bit awkward) But there is a 1-3 day scenic shuttle bus pass available in the scenic area.
1️⃣ Tianyou Peak, the classic main peak of Wuyi Mountain, can be summited in 40 minutes if you're physically fit. Standing at the top, you have a wide view, overlooking the entire Wuyi Mountain scenic area.
2️⃣ Yunnvfeng, cannot be climbed, but you will pass by it on a bamboo raft.
3️⃣ Dahongpao Scenic Area, where you can admire the Dahongpao mother trees, a paradise for tea enthusiasts.
4️⃣ Shuilian Cave, experience the spectacular sight of the water curtain hanging down. If it's not a rainy day or season, the view may be quite ordinary, and it's quite tiring to climb.
5️⃣ One-Line-Sky, very narrow and damp, with an unpleasant smell, and Tiger Roar Rock is just beyond it.
6️⃣ Tiger Roar Rock, more challenging than Tianyou Peak, with some steep sections.
7️⃣ Jiuqu Stream, famous for its clear water and winding river, it is said that only by taking a bamboo raft can you appreciate the beauty of Wuyi Mountain's 'Nine Bends and Eighteen Turns'.
🛶Bamboo raft 130/person, about an hour and a half. If it's peak season, book your tickets in advance, if there are no tickets online you can book them at the dock. Try to go in the morning when the temperature is not high, the sun is not strong, and there are more fish in the water. There are many shoe covers for sale at the dock, but they're not very useful (not needed at all). However, if you're interested, you can buy some fish food,
feeding the fish makes the water surface as lively as a boiling pot~
📢Explanation: 20/person, this 'tip' depends on luck, if you meet a good boatman, he will patiently explain the local customs, features along the way, and strange rock formations, and will stop at some viewing points to help everyone take photos; but it's said that some boatmen will make inappropriate jokes all the way, which is offensive; or if everyone on the boat refuses to pay, the boatman will row quickly to the end....
8️⃣At the end of the bamboo raft, you have to pass through Song Street, which is actually a shopping street, with a Wuyi Mountain Museum in the middle where you can see hanging coffins. Continuing forward is Wuyi Palace, a few minutes' walk will take you to the entrance of Dawang Peak. Further on, there is the Guanyu Platform, Zhizhi An, and a very photogenic stone carving wall.
9️⃣Dawang Peak, one of the iconic attractions of Wuyi Mountain, not recommended for those with insufficient physical strength.
1️⃣0️⃣Zhizhi An. An ancient temple with a tranquil environment and atmosphere.
1️⃣1️⃣Baiyun Zen Temple. Go early to see the sunrise, and with some luck, you may also encounter a sea of clouds.
💃In the evening, you can enjoy the 'Impression Dahongpao' live performance, 70 minutes, 238/person, remember to book in advance.
Delicious food: Min-style private kitchen, although it's an internet-famous restaurant, the taste, environment, service, and value for money are still good.
🏠Accommodation: Near 'Sangu Holiday Area' and 'Nanyuanling Homestay Village', try to book in advance.
💡Tips:
🌞Check the weather forecast before you go, and be prepared with rain gear as the weather can change rapidly.
👟The Wuyi Mountain scenic area is large, so it's recommended to wear comfortable shoes.
💐Here, whether it's a restaurant or hotel, tea is sold, and if you pull someone who seems to be a local and ask which tea has the best value for money, they will definitely take you to their home to drink (buy) tea without hesitation!

Go to drink tea in Zhizhian, Wuyishan
Wuyishan is beautiful, the water is also beautiful. Sitting on a bamboo raft drifting along the Nine Bend River in Wuyishan, listening to the boatman telling various beautiful legends along the way, it feels like you are traveling in a painting.
After getting off the boat, walk to Zhizhian. Suddenly it starts to rain heavily. When people don't stay, the sky keeps people. Sit down and go to drink tea in Zhizhian.
Travel tips:
1. The ticket for the Nine Bend River bamboo raft must be booked in advance, and you should arrive at the dock earlier on the day of reservation. There are 8 people per boat, and teams are randomly arranged. If you want to listen to the boatman's story, you need to pay a little extra.
2. It is recommended to visit Zhizhian after getting off the boat. It's not too far to walk there, and it's a quiet place to calm your mind.
3. The weather in Wuyishan is unpredictable, especially when you are on a bamboo raft, it is recommended to bring rain gear.

Xiamei Ancient Residence Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Exploring the ancient Mei Village, silent in the river of history
In 2023, my organization arranged a trip to Wuyi Mountain in Fujian for a restorative outing. During our free time, I visited the ancient Mei Village near Wuyi Mountain with a few colleagues. This place preserves a large number of architectural structures from the Ming and Qing dynasties in northern Fujian, including a long corridor built along the river, imposing gate towers, buildings with carved beams and painted rafters, and the very down-to-earth earthen walls. Here, one can contemplate the history of Wuyi rock tea being sold to Europe and Southeast Asia through the thousands of miles of the Tea Horse Road. You can also see peculiar doorways and learn that they were once used by wealthy families to measure the figures of prospective brides. It's worth mentioning that as long as you purchase a ticket to the ancient Mei Village, no matter the number of visitors, the scenic area will arrange for local guides to lead the tour and narrate the stories behind each ancient building.

Fujian Tourism|In Wuyi Mountain, you can really feel the beautiful ancient villages
|In Wuyi Mountain, you can really feel the beautiful ancient villages.
😍When it comes to Wuyi Mountain, what people may remember most is the beautiful mountains and waters here. In fact, in addition to visiting those natural scenic spots, the ancient residential buildings in XiaMei are also worth seeing.
🏠XiaMei ancient residential buildings are part of the Wuyi Mountain World Cultural Heritage in Fujian Province. It is only 8 kilometers away from the national tourism resort. As soon as you enter the ancient streets, wells, docks, buildings, houses, and markets of XiaMei Village, coupled with the simple and ancient local customs, it seems to place me in the Jiangnan water town.
📸Walking in the ancient street, you can see young men and women sketching from time to time, full of literary atmosphere. The strong feelings of the ancient town, quiet and beautiful, low-key and niche, have not been eroded by commercialization, satisfying my dreamy impression of the ancient town.
🍵If time permits, you can also taste a good cup of tea in the old house, cross time and space, and feel the deep cultural heritage, and understand the stories and years that have happened here.

Wuyishan - Xiaomei Ancient Residence, a good place to cultivate oneself!
Xiaomei Ancient Village is the tea trade market of Wuyishan in the Qing Dynasty, and also the starting point of the Tea Road of Thousands of Miles. There are still the ruins of the Qing Dynasty tea market trade water transport Jinglong Wharf and Tea Market Street, tea trade cultural relics, and Qing Dynasty tea merchant residential buildings.
According to historical records, Wuyi Tea Market gathers Chong'an (now Wuyishan City) and Xiaomei. At its peak, 300 rafts were transported daily. The Jin merchant Chang's and Xiaomei Wu's tea merchants jointly opened Jinglong Tea House. Jinglong Wharf was busy all day, swallowing the endless goods of the tea market, and Xiaomei became the important town of tea foreign trade in the Qing Dynasty. The tea road stretching for thousands of miles, starting from Wuyishan, runs through the Eurasian continent, reaching St. Petersburg, Russia, becoming the starting point of the land and sea tea road, leaving a brilliant history of Wuyi tea foreign trade.

Stay at the foot of Wuyi Mountain to enjoy the beautiful mountain and water scenery
Recommended reason: The thoughtful butler's 24-hour service, the 110,000 m Song-style aesthetic space, will embrace the surrounding Wuyi mountain and water scenery. Sitting by the lake, on the island in the lake, taste the cutting-edge food. The first Song Dynasty style 'Boat Traveling Quiet Environment' stay in the country.
At the foot of Wuyi Mountain, there is also a secluded and luxurious secret place 'Wuyi·Chunbo Resort Hotel', its arrival fills the gap that Wuyi Mountain does not have a luxury resort hotel. It integrates the concepts of 'seclusion, exclusivity, uniqueness', and creates the first Song Dynasty style 'Boat Traveling Quiet Environment' stay experience in the country. It backs on to Dawang Peak, adjacent to Binxi Park, quiet in the midst of noise, secluded and independent. Without leaving the house, you can enjoy the beautiful mountains and waters.

SeekerOfExperiences
Everywhere surpasses five stars, it's no wonder it's the most beautiful hotel in Wuyi Mountain
🛏 Chunbo is not the most expensive hotel I have ever stayed in, but it is definitely the best. The hotel design is integrated with the heaven, earth, mountains and rivers. It is not easy to enter by boat and to provide perfect service during the peak period of the Spring Festival. It is even more unexpected that this is a local brand, which is worth supporting.
📍Detailed address: No. 80, Fulongyan
🚗Traffic strategy: 30 minutes by taxi from Nanping Station
🌟Check-in experience:
The butler added WeChat the day before check-in, booked afternoon tea, and arranged for early check-in, which is not easy during the Spring Festival.
The hotel lobby is built against the mountain, and the guest rooms are very spacious. The first floor has its own small courtyard. When you open the door, you see the mountain, which is quiet and far-reaching. The spare parts are L'Occitane, the standard of international five-star. The breakfast is even more perfect, not only local snacks but also Western breakfast, the charge of 128 is really conscientious.
The entire hotel's check-in experience adds a touch of color to Wuyi Mountain. It can be said that Chunbo is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in, and it is definitely a must-stay list in life.
