    There weren't many people around, so it was a blast to see the bears. Fufu is such a fun bear. The area isn't big, so you can get around without the scenic area bus. It's also not expensive, only 5 yuan.

    It's worth a visit. Walking among a group of stones, taking photos, and checking in, it's beautiful and a good exercise. In summer, you must take good sun protection measures, as your head will be exposed to the sun. We brought a child who was afraid of heat, so the shortest itinerary was probably completed in two hours.

    There's a scenic spot in Zhusha Ancient Town called "That Era." It depicts events from the 1960s and 1970s. At first, I was puzzled by the strangely dressed people I kept encountering. Then, when I ran into a couple getting married, I realized they were all actors! Hahaha. I have to give a thumbs-up to these actors, because I didn't realize they were actors. There's also a sign in the scenic area with multiple meanings: "Follow the Days Forward." It was very touching, because the only person who can truly heal yourself is yourself.

    酣然入梦.酣然入梦.

    Over the weekend, I ventured deep into the Grand Canyon, seeking the tranquil, mirror-like waters. Immersed in the canyon, detached from the hustle and bustle, I felt the loving embrace and warm comfort of nature. [Scenery] Stunning

    I'll definitely be back with my kids next time. This place is perfect for a family outing. After entering the park, my kids had so much fun that I couldn't stop them. They were wearing the little dinosaur costumes provided by the scenic area and paraded around the scenic area. They were so cute. The special effects in the scenic area were also very good, with petals, bubbles, smoke, and flames. It was really well-made. With so much fun for just one ticket, it's no wonder they say it's a "must-see"! It's definitely worth it!

    I have heard of Gaoguo River for a long time, but I have never seen its beauty. Hiking and sightseeing, the canyon scenery is very beautiful, the most unexpected is the 108-meter Guer Falls, very shocking! The whole journey is lush with vegetation and the river water is clear. I took two sightseeing buses along the way, and the total time was about 【Scenery】two and a half hours.

    It's worth a visit, and it's different from ordinary cruises. There are several special scene performances on the shore, and the actors and lighting are good. The music can only be heard on the boat, and the elderly at home are very satisfied after watching it.

    You can drive into the scenic area. The speed limit is 20 km/h throughout. The famous "Instagrammable" bridge has been renovated. We went through it twice. Then we took some photos on the mountain. After crossing the "Instagrammable" bridge, the subsequent water crossing felt even more thrilling and interesting.

    The willow leaf lake, which is21.8 square kilometers northeast of Changde City, is known as the "first lake in China's city", such as an emerald inlaid in the city map. East to Dongting, west to Wuling, Liuye Lake anchored the attitude of Endeavour in the coordinates of the new era, and painted a new picture of the cultural tourism of "sports, music, living, well-being, happiness".

    Although the play time is not very long, we came out in a little over an hour. The scenery in the cave is good, but the temperature inside the cave is lower than outside, and there will be dripping water, so you should be careful when dressing. The projection in the cave is based on time periods, so if you want to watch it, pay attention to the time. There is no toilet in the cave, so please clean up the inventory before entering. It is a pity that although there is a voice reminder that smoking is prohibited, there are still uncivilized phenomena such as smoking and even throwing cigarette butts.
