Gexian Mountain Sceneic Area Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Light Hiking to Enjoy Flowers | Viewing the Sea of February Orchids
| Viewing the Sea of February Orchids. A good place for a light hike to enjoy flowers around Chengdu
📍 Navigate to Gexian Mountain Scenic Area
There is a parking lot P with potato sellers both inside and at the entrance, as well as public toilets. The area is not very large, and it takes about 3 hours to walk through, taking photos and viewing the flowers.
🌸 There are also many varieties of flowers, including camellias, black azaleas, French roses, butterfly flowers, mountain cherry blossoms, February orchids, and possibly some other unknown small flowers; in any case, there are many varieties and quantities.
🌸 The sea of February orchids is the most spectacular, indeed a vast expanse, very suitable for photography. However, there are also a lot of people. Besides viewing flowers, there is also a cave in the scenic area that can be lightly explored; in addition, there are some trails that can be navigated with good road conditions, and it's not easy to get lost. Suitable for bringing children, pets, and the elderly, it's very relaxing.

Jiangxi!! Don't promote here during the Spring Festival! You're confused!!!
|||-
I can always be moved to tears for the atmosphere of traditional festivals! In Gexian Village, Shangrao, Jiangxi, there is already a strong New Year flavor. A dazzling array of giant lanterns, ancient streets full of red lanterns, temples on the top of the mountain full of blessing ribbons... Oh my, it's a proper 5G New Year speed!
-
I've strolled around three times and summarized the following routes with the strongest New Year flavor
🏮 Shanhaijing Giant Lantern Festival
★Route【Tea Garden👉🏻Colorful Lotus Pond👉🏻Five Elements Medicinal Field👉🏻Moral Pillar】Xiahouqi, Zhulong, Jumang, Kun and other Shanhaijing beasts escaped from the scrolls and appeared in Gexian Village in a majestic posture.
🌲Blessing Ancient Tree
★Location【Left side of the Moral Pillar】It's too spectacular, under the ancient banyan tree full of blessing ribbons and fish lanterns, you can also set off lanterns.
❤️Sky Mirror Platform
★Location【Top of Gexian Mountain】The Sky Mirror Platform where you can see the sea of clouds, I was already amazed the last time I came, this time the blessing platform has added new ways of blessing, New Year wishes get!
🙏🏻Gexian Temple
★Location【Top of Gexian Mountain】You must come to Gexian Temple for a divination, facing Gexian Weng🙏🏻say what you want, find two opposite bamboo slips in the divination place, and randomly draw a number to throw down together, if the bamboo slips are one positive and one negative for three consecutive times, that number is the divination you want, otherwise change the number and continue. Remember to go to the back to interpret the divination, it's free!
-♨Gexian Village
📍Yongyang Road, Gexian Mountain Town, Qianshan County, Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province
📱Ticket 130r/person

1⃣️Spring Festival Shanhaijing Theme Lantern Festival
I have to say, the New Year's flavor of Gexian Village is really full
Especially at the entrance of the tea garden, the shocking 'Nine Dragons Playing with Pearls Lantern'
And next to the lotus pond, the stunning 'Big Fish Begonia' lamp
Directly brought me into the magical world of Shanhaijing
A step by step, it's simply dazzling
I never stopped taking pictures
-
2⃣️Gexian Mountain Taoist Temple
A small Taoist temple where only locals will come
I have been to Gexian Village 5 times, and this is the first time I climbed Gexian Mountain
The Taoist temple on the top of the mountain has a sense of déjà vu of Hangzhou Faxi Temple
If you are lucky, you can also see a very shocking sea of clouds
-
3⃣️Boating and playing with fish
In front of Zhongmiaoge, boating on the lake, groups of fish surround you, when the smoke rises, it seems to have come to a fairy world
-
4⃣️Lingbao Xian Street
When night falls, thousands of lights light up, and the ancient houses are illuminated in an instant, really like the real version of Spirited Away

5⃣️Night performance
The activities in the ancient village are more abundant, bamboo pole dance, paper umbrella love, water dance show, light show, bonfire party, etc... Every minute in Gexian Village, you will not feel bored

Jiangxi Gexian | With the charm of the New Year and the aura of immortality, it's a +1 destination for Spring Festival travel
My friend from Jiangxi invites me to visit Jiangxi every year, boasting its beautiful scenery in all four seasons. I've been putting it off for several years, but this year she insisted again, saying that it's snowing heavily and it's very 'fairy-like', and a weekend would suffice. So, last week, I went to Gexian Village and Gexian Mountain, and took a dip in the snow hot spring. In one word: refreshing!
After the heavy snow, Gexian Mountain is like a fairy tale world, not inferior to the vast Northeast and Xinjiang. The key point is, the Jiangnan-style buildings in the snow are naturally elegant, giving the whole place a 'fairy-like' feel!
The Gexian Village at the foot of the mountain is also full of the New Year atmosphere. Strolling around Yueya Lane and Lingbao Fairy Street, it feels a bit like stepping into a national comic. I heard that during the New Year, there will be a 'Shan Hai Jing' lantern festival. If you take photos in Hanfu, it would be divine! I highly recommend everyone to travel here during the Spring Festival, sincerely!

🚉Travel strategy:
High-speed rail Xipu🚄 half an hour 15 yuan
🌟Highlights:
Founded in the third year of Xiankang in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (337 AD), it was initially named 'Dakong Temple'. In the second year of Yongding of Emperor Wu of the Liang Dynasty (558 AD), Master Zhi Gong expanded the temple. Empress Wu Zetian (691 AD) renamed it 'Dayun Temple', and Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty decreed it as 'Longxing Temple' in the sixth year of Kaiyuan (718 AD).
In the late period of the domestic liberation war in 1949, the senior generals of Sichuan and Kang provinces, Liu Wenhui, Deng Xihou, and Pan Wenhua, held a meeting in the scripture tower of Longxing Temple, declared a peaceful uprising and broadcasted it nationwide, avoiding a bloody battle.

Remember to
OLIVER LUCAS
It's not India, it's not Cambodia, it's a lesser-known free temple in Chengdu
It's not India, it's not Cambodia, you might think you're abroad; this place is really good for strolling around, the large golden ginkgo trees in the temple are very photogenic in autumn and winter; here you can enjoy the solemn tranquility of the ancient temple, and also enjoy leisurely tea drinking, sightseeing and photography!
💡Longxing Temple, which has a history of 1600 years! It is one of the only 19 Shakyamuni real body relic pagodas in China. The main pagoda is 81 meters high, symbolizing the Buddhist concept of 'ninety-nine return to one'. It is currently the tallest pagoda in China and Southeast Asia, and also the only pagoda in Sichuan Province that is most similar to the Vajrasana relic pagoda in Indian Buddhist monasteries.

Pengzhou private courtyard hot spring, this winter must be arranged
How can this winter be without hot springs?
Take a break on the weekend and go to the hot springs around Chengdu with your girlfriends to relax. This hot spring hotel has a unique and chic courtyard design.
In the afternoon, we gather around the stove to make tea. The most important thing is that there is a real firewood fireplace. Everyone is not cold at all when roasting fire together. The dinner at night is Guizhou tomato sour soup pot, which is simply too appetizing. The double meal we bought is completely uneaten and the portion is very sufficient. It's nice to go to change clothes and soak in the hot spring after dinner. If there are many people, you can arrange to play mahjong in the hotel. The hotel has a mahjong machine, which is really thoughtful.
The breakfast is also very rich, you can see from the picture. The key point is that the boss of this hotel has a very good service attitude. He also sent us local special pastries to taste. In general, this hot spring hotel is worth going again .

Moved into the ideal hot spring guesthouse! There's underfloor heating! The barbecue is really fragrant!
Today I moved into a French-style villa🏡
Around Pengzhou, there is such a unique guesthouse, with a round archway, brick-red exterior walls, and a square green lawn at the door, decorated into a small French-style villa, with a kind of classical beauty.
This guesthouse has several themed rooms: parent-child suites, standard suites, and a row of villas. You can play mahjong in the villa, and it also comes with a hot spring, which is quite private. It is very suitable for family gatherings or vacations with a few friends.
Here is surrounded by mountains and rivers, you can breathe fresh air when you wake up in the morning, and feel the local life atmosphere. There is also an open hot spring up the hill behind the villa, soaking in the rose hot spring, drinking red wine, what kind of fairy life is this!
I have to say that the barbecue at this guesthouse is the best I have ever had. Grilled chicken wings, grilled duck tongues, grilled prawns, grilled intestines, grilled palm treasures, grilled pork belly... Finally, dipped in secret chili powder, wrapped in lettuce, delicious!

I came to Little Switzerland in Chengdu first
It's only an hour's drive from Chengdu, and the hotel is very cost-effective. They are all independent log cabins, very photogenic, just like the style of Switzerland, you can enjoy the cheap and cost-effective homestay without going abroad! It's really convenient! The housekeeper will also ask about the itinerary in advance, help to turn on the air conditioner, very considerate, lying on the bed and watching the snow scene, it is undoubtedly the most comfortable! It's really warm, I love it so much!
I also went skiing⛷️, this winter is complete!
