The raft floats on the water, and people wander in the sky - Nanxi River Xiaogang Drifting
Nanxi River is known for its picturesque mountains and rivers, poetic and picturesque, and is the only national scenic area in China that is famous for its pastoral landscapes. The Nanxi River meanders and twists, stretching long with 36 bends and 72 beaches. The river water is clear and graceful, and drifting down on a raft, you can see the perilous peaks and rocks on both sides, with thousands of shades of green. Blue sky, white clouds, green water, white beaches, and the countryside dominated by green and golden colors, the multi-layered landscape is like a slowly unfolding scroll.
'Small bamboo rafts travel in the river, and the majestic green mountains walk on both sides' - on the Nanxi River, you can feel the tranquility of being one with nature. Bamboo rafting, as one of the must-do activities for Nanxi River tourism, has many docks, especially a lot, and almost all the strategies recommend starting from Xiaogang Dock because the scenery there is the best. Xiaogang Drifting In Xiaogang Drifting, you can experience the scenic features of beautiful water, strange rocks, and beautiful forests up close, and feel the poetic sense of 'rafting on the green waves, people wandering in the painting'. Sitting on the original comfortable bamboo raft and drifting down the river is like sliding over a piece of flawless jade, with dense or sparse beach forests on the riverbank, ancient villages and houses on both sides, and blue sky, white clouds, and green mountains reflecting in the river, just like a dynamic landscape painting. As the sun sets, smoke from cooking fires curls up, fishing boats sing in the evening, and the pastoral song is peaceful and harmonious.

Challenge to take the puppy out to play every weekend (2/100) Yongjia Wheat Field
>🤍
Hi Hi ee's~ I'm Jiunai, the sister who's on the road with the puppy~
This week we went with the puppy to find the wind blowing through the wheat waves! 🍃
>🚗
Departing from downtown Wenzhou and heading north, the journey takes less than 1 hour
(🏞: Xibin Park)
After seeing the park sign, walk a short distance through the woods on the left hand side
And you'll arrive at the Miyazaki anime world-like hundred-acre wheat field! 🌾
>🌿
There are clouds floating in the sky
The puppy is running on the path in the field
The wheat on both sides undulates with the wind
There are also a few children flying kites nearby 🪁
Spring is thus visualized in the full view of wheat green
>🐾
The road surface in the wheat field is hotter than in the city because there is no shade
Remember not to let the puppy be exposed to the sun for too long at midday
We arrived around 4 pm
The temperature was quite suitable then
Also, remember to do pest control for the puppy
And take the trash with you when you leave~
You can't damage even a bit of the farmland that the farmers have worked hard on!
>🤍
Does your puppy like to go out and play?

Nanxi River | Top Essence Day Tour of Mountain and Countryside Scenery
Nanxi River, a national scenic area known for its mountain and countryside scenery, is only 50 kilometers away from the highly developed city of Wenzhou, yet it presents a completely different face, like a hermit hidden in the city.
A 3-day tour in winter, although it coincided with continuous overcast weather, making the photos less than ideal, the experience was not diminished, especially when compared to Beijing, the difference in air quality is huge.
The tour is centered around Yantou Town, where I stayed for several days, and you can either drive yourself or hire a car in the town. The 3-day itinerary includes, in addition to Yantou, 7 other ancient villages and 4 mountains, none of which are very strenuous to climb, with each mountain taking no more than 2 hours to ascend and descend
Twelve Peaks
A group of peaks rise up like pillars, crowded and staggered, creating a beautiful disorder;
Cliff Bottom Storehouse
An eighty-meter cliff has a plank road built upon it, as well as a glass platform, which looks dangerous, but is actually not difficult to walk the entire way;
Daitou Village
This ancient village ranks first in my Nanxi River itinerary, sitting under the big camphor tree at the entrance of the village, it feels like being in another world.
Linkeng
The most famous and mature ancient village, possibly because I missed the drying season, my experience was not good;
Yubei Village
A very simple ancient village, with the Shangshu Shrine, Yubei Armed Uprising Monument, and many slogans left from the past, witnessing history and time together, ranking just after Daitou Village in my list;
Xikou
Xikou Village produced a family in the Southern Song Dynasty that had 'four generations of scholars from one family', including Dai Meng and Dai Tong, who were famous Neo-Confucian scholars at the time;
Cangpo
The architecture in the village is full of cultural connotations, incorporating inspirations from the Four Treasures of the Chinese study;
Furong Village
Furong ancient village can be described as 'Nanxi River has no art gallery, the village itself is an art gallery', with a pavilion built on the water echoing the distant mountains, showing a spiritual aura.
Shiwei Rock
A giant peak that resembles a ship's mast, hence the name Shiwei Rock, is considered a landmark of Nanxi River;
Longwan Pool
The highlight is the 'Sevenfold Waterfall', with seven pools and seven waterfalls connected, making a spectacular sight;
Pengxi Village
In the village, there is a Kang Le Pavilion, commemorating the villagers' ancestor Kang Le Gong Xie Lingyun, and outside the village, there is a recently popular internet-famous waterfall.
On Yantou Town, there are Ta Mountain Park, a church; Lishui Ancient Street (15 yuan for a ticket, free after 5 pm), all worth a visit.
🎫Tickets: All the above mountains require tickets, some villages also have tickets ranging from 10 to 20 yuan, some are free.

Shiwei Rock Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
In Wenzhou, I found the Bayanbulak hidden in dreams
Natural lawns, herds of cattle and sheep
Distinctive mountains, gentle streams
...
The World Geopark Shimate Rock
Extends a secret landscape of mountains and waters
Every spot is Heidi and Grandpa's home
Breathing the sweet air of the deep mountains
Running in the wilderness, picnicking, camping
Freely emptying the mind, embracing nature to the fullest
As if running wild in the vast grasslands of Bayanbulak
🎫Ticket: Free
🚗Transport: Self-driving tour recommended
🧭📍Navigation: Daying Village, Hesheng Town, Yongjia County, Wenzhou City, Yongjia·Wenzhou
🌄Nearby attractions: Shimate Rock
🍜Nearby food:
Highly recommended, Ling Shang Ren Jia roasted whole lamb. Mountain dwellings, scattered and orderly, not only roasted whole lamb but also many local specialties.
🏡Nearby accommodation:
There is a Shangyuan Homestay in Daying Village, which is really stylish, but it's a pity that it is not yet open to the public.
Other homestays: Fengyi Homestay, Yunshang Homestay, Yanshang Homestay Group
💁♀️‼️❗️Attention, take note:
This is a magical land. When there is abundant rainfall, it becomes a large reservoir, shimmering with waves. During the dry season, large lawns are exposed, quite like the western prairies. If it has just rained heavily, it is not recommended to go, to avoid a wasted trip. This is also a primitive village without staff management, remember to take care of nature, leave nothing but footprints.

Celebrating the New Year: A Leisurely Two-Day Tour in Yongjia
There's no festive atmosphere in the city, so at the invitation of my best friend, on the third day of the Lunar New Year, I took my parents and grandparents for a drive to Yongjia, Wenzhou to celebrate the New Year✌
To ensure that all team members could participate in all activities, the itinerary was very relaxed, not tiring, and included plenty of eating, playing, and touring😀
🌟👉Yongjia, the fourth largest county in Zhejiang Province and the largest county in Wenzhou, is home to the famous Nanxi River scenic area, as well as a number of large and small ancient villages scattered along the river.
△ ————————△
1⃣⛰Shimao Rock🌸~'Seeking the beauty along the creek, we come upon the Shimao Rock'
🔸The Nanxi River scenic area has many attractions that are spread out. Considering that we have many elderly people with us, we chose Shimao Rock, which is the flattest and most suitable for leisurely strolls, with an entrance fee of 50 yuan.
🔹Different from the experience of rafting on the Nanxi River several years ago in summer, the water level is low in winter. Although the color palette is more desolate, the exposed riverbed has become the place where everyone lingers and plays the longest.
🔺Shimao Rock is a solitary peak formed by a volcanic eruption over a hundred million years ago. It rises from the valley and resembles a ship's mast, hence the name. The pure water is like an emerald belt, winding and turning, sometimes narrow, sometimes wide, sometimes slow, sometimes rapid, and walking into it, one can truly feel the magical power of nature.
△ ————————△
2⃣⛩Meitan Ancient Village🌸∽'Old friends bring chickens and millet, inviting me to their farm home'
🔸My best friend's home is in Meitan Village, Hesheng Town, formerly known as Meipo Village, the fifth batch of historical and cultural villages in Zhejiang, together with Cangpo Village, they are known as the two pearls on the banks of the Nanxi River, with the reputation of 'Cangpo of literature, Meipo of martial arts'.
🔹The entire village has the surname Gu, with many martial arts families, and retains many old houses. The most worth visiting are the Meitan Gu Residence and Meitan Mansion, built during the Ming and Qing dynasties, respectively. The architecture is exquisite, the door art is refined, and the brick carvings and window patterns are very beautiful. If interested, you can also visit the Gu family ancestral hall, Yi Huai public ancestral hall, and Long Dian ancestral hall, as well as the ancient cypress tree that is over 900 years old...
🔺The main thoroughfare into the village is another scene altogether, with several Dingbu bridges spanning the Nanxi River. On one side of the bridge, villagers sit in twos and threes, chatting and sharing experiences and anecdotes from the past year; on the other side, the continuous Yandang Mountain range extends into the distance, with no end in sight.
△ ————————△
3⃣🍱Ling Shang Ren Jia🌸∽'Above the ridge, there are white clouds, and deep within, there are homes'
🔸Located in Lingshang Village, Hesheng Town, it is an ancient village with a history of over 400 years, more precisely, a rural tourism spot, with 30 hotels densely arranged along the mountain, quite imposing.
🔹Below the iron chain bridge at the entrance of the village, there used to be a small waterfall, which has been changed into the Longlin Dam at some point. It is the Year of the Dragon, and a visit to the Longlin Dam is a must when coming to Lingshang.
🔺The local specialty dish that is full of flavor is roasted whole lamb, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, not greasy, attracting many tourists who come to Nanxi River to taste. Remember: you must book in advance❗️ And you must arrive early‼️
△ ————————△
4⃣🛌Xishang Yun Kai Homestay🌸∽'When the creek rises, new birds come; when the clouds part, distant mountains appear'
🔻The homestay is located on the lower water line of Meitan Village, next to Meitan Primary School. The homestay offers coffee and dining, with barbecue and karaoke at night. Nestled against the mountains and by the water, the air is fresh, quiet and comfortable, and you can even see the twinkling stars✨

The journey to Nanxi River Shijiang Rock
On a clear morning, I embarked on a journey to the scenic area of Nanxi River Shijiang Rock. The mountains here are clear and the water is beautiful, as if I were in a beautiful painting.
Entering the scenic area, I walked along the mountain path, with dense forests and clear streams on the side of the road. The air was filled with a fresh breath, which made me feel relaxed and happy. In a short while, I came to the foot of Shijiang Rock. Looking up at the towering Shijiang Rock, I couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of nature. Shijiang Rock looks like a ship's mast, rising from the ground, standing between the mountains, giving a spectacular feeling.
Then, I began to climb Shijiang Rock. The mountain road was rugged, but every step could feel the charm of nature. Standing on the top of the mountain, overlooking the surrounding mountains and winding streams, I felt a sense of heroism. The distant mountains are undulating, the clouds are misty, just like a fairyland.
Coming down from the top of the mountain, I came to the stream. The stream was clear and the fish were playing in the water. I took off my shoes and stepped into the water, feeling the coolness and smoothness of the stream. There were also many strange-shaped stones by the stream. I picked up one and carefully looked at its texture and shape, as if I could feel the precipitation of time.
Walking along the stream, I came to a waterfall. The waterfall flew down like a silver belt, splashing countless water droplets. The mist was filled, giving a sense of coolness and tranquility. I stood quietly in front of the waterfall, listening to the sound of the water, enjoying this moment of tranquility.
The beautiful scenery of Nanxi River Shijiang Rock scenic area made me linger. Here, I felt the power and charm of nature, and also gained inner peace and relaxation. This tour will become my beautiful memory, and I look forward to the next encounter with nature.

Nanxi River | Yongjia Academy: a hundred-meter mooring path, beautiful waterfalls
| Yongjia Academy: a hundred-meter mooring path, beautiful waterfalls. The mountains and waters of Nanxi River are very serene and beautiful, suitable for playing in the water when the weather is slightly hot.
-
The Nanxi River is also very suitable for pure sightseeing tourism, with many attractions, and they are all very close. You can randomly pick a few attractions and have fun for several days.
-
✅ Yongjia Academy is an old-brand attraction of Nanxi River, located in the core area of Nanxi River, with convenient parking. The scenic area is also quite large, with facilities for touring, accommodation, dining, and bars.
-
✅ After buying a ticket and entering, just follow the concrete road straight inside, and soon you will reach the hundred-meter mooring path. It is not recommended to take the sightseeing car for this part. The hundred-meter mooring path is really great for taking photos, and you can stay here a bit longer.
-
✅ Continue walking inside, at the three-way intersection, turn left to go to Yongjia Study Hall, and further inside is the Jinzhu Waterfall. The three-way intersection to the right is the road to the Glass Cloud Gallery, which costs an additional hundred or more...

Yongjia Academy, with numerous scenic spots along the Nanxi River, offers endless beauty in the Golden Pit
From January 27th to February 20th, Yongjia Academy is hosting the '2024 Second Nanxi River Plum Blossom Festival'. Hearing such news, we eagerly went to appreciate the 'beautiful mountains, beautiful waters, and beautiful plum blossoms'. However, we were ultimately a step too late; although the mountains and rivers remained the same, the main force of plum blossoms had quietly retreated.
Yongjia Academy features ancient architecture and houses exhibitions of movable-type printing, calligraphy and painting, and coins, but most visitors come here mainly to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Nanxi River.
'The Nanxi River bank has many attractions, and the beauty of the Golden Pit is endless.' This refers to Yongjia Academy. The scenic area is located in the core area of the Nanxi River, combining mountains, water, forests, rocks, beaches, and waterfalls into one. The most beautiful section is undoubtedly the Golden Pit Gorge.
The gorge is lush with trees, the stream babbles, strange rocks are scattered about, and koi fish swim leisurely, with several unique small arch bridges. At the end of the gorge hangs a waterfall called 'Golden Pearl'. The waterfall is 88 meters high and cascades down from the volcanic rock fault cliff, singing loudly as it falls.
Among the mountains on both sides of the Golden Pearl Waterfall, more than 7,000 plum trees have been planted. If in full bloom, the mountain would be draped in rosy clouds, surpassing even the azaleas. Unfortunately, flowers do not wait for people; with the early spring breeze, the cold-resistant plum blossoms have already taken their final bow, leaving behind a mountain of 'bare commanders'.

The picturesque landscape and long-standing culture of Yongjia Academy | The soul of Nanxi River
| The soul of Nanxi River. Yongjia Academy shares its name with Yongjia County, boasting a profound history. Established in the Northern Song Dynasty, it has a history of a thousand years. The Nanxi River next to the academy, with its clear and green water reflecting the mountains, is quiet and peaceful, making it an excellent place for study and learning.
The academy is currently a paid attraction, with a ticket price of 50r. Discounts are available for purchases made online a day in advance. At the entrance of the scenic area, villagers offer bamboo raft drifting, but the actual distance is short and not cost-effective.
Recommended ways to play:
🚗Pure leisure: Take a battery car (5r) at the entrance and go along the Nanxi River to Yongjia Xueguan to learn about the representative figures and main spirit of the Yongjia School. Then walk about 800 meters towards Jinzhu Waterfall, cross the river beach by stepping on stones, take photos in front of the waterfall, no need to climb the mountain, and return the same way. The round trip takes about 1-1.5 hours.
🌟Mountain climbing and sightseeing route: Start from the entrance, walk along the Nanxi River, pass the Tiptoe Bridge to the Xueguan, climb the mountain from the mountain trail next to Jinzhu Waterfall, you can overlook the winding Nanxi River from the top of the mountain, continue towards the Camel Peak, and return along the road. The climb is about 250 meters, and the whole journey takes 3-4 hours.
🌸Parent-child route: The scenery along the river from the entrance to the Tiptoe Bridge is very good. There will be bamboo raft drifting and water pedal bikes on weekends and holidays. It is safer to play with water in the scenic area, and the photos are quite good. Children can bring fishing nets and play with adults on the shallow beach near Jinzhu Waterfall.
🔖Team building: The Eros Cloud Gallery on the top of the mountain has many thrilling projects, which require separate tickets. The joint ticket (158r) includes a suspended glass plank road, a glass sky bridge, an air swing, a mountain jungle glass slide, and a sky cloud gallery. Not suitable for those with acrophobia, it's an adventurer's paradise.
☕️Dining:
There are not many choices. The Yongjia Academy Restaurant is located in the scenic area, at the battery car drop-off point, where you can order meals, drink tea and coffee. There are scattered stalls nearby selling Yongjia pancakes.
📍Location: Zhu'an Village, Yongjia County, Wenzhou City. Parking is 10r per time.

Linkeng Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Wenzhou's 'Little Wuyuan' | Wisps of cooking smoke rise among the mountains, and there are small bridges over flowing water and households
After visiting, I've checked off the travel tips for you, and it's worth coming here with family and friends.
It is said that Linkeng Ancient Village has a history of building the village for over two hundred years. It is the most intact ancient mountain village in the Nanxi River area and is also known as Wenzhou's 'Little Wuyuan'. The most famous time is during the autumn drying season, when every household is drying corn🌽 and chili peppers🌶️
The day we went there was a light drizzle, and there were few tourists. There is no admission fee, and the whole ancient village is like being in the mountains, as if it were a paradise. Small bridges over flowing water, wisps of cooking smoke~ It gives a peaceful feeling, and the environment is quite primitive. Every household is a farmhouse, and there are also some homestays.
By the small bridge, we also encountered children collecting dried sweet potatoes. There were very few pedestrians along the way, and for a moment, it was hard to tell whether the people on the road were tourists or villagers~ This place is very suitable for those who are under great pressure in the city and are seeking inner peace~

Lingkeng Ancient Village | A pristine ancient village that few people know about
A pristine ancient village that few people know about. If you're tired of the hustle and bustle of the city, weary of the routine life, and want to experience the tranquility of the mountains and fields, feel the simple atmosphere of traditional rural life, and place yourself back in the ancient times, then I recommend you visit Lingkeng, a remote village with very few tourists!
The orderly black tiles, babbling mountain streams, verdant bamboo forests, ink-like night sky, and cool air will definitely soothe a restless heart!
★Transportation Choices★
Myself: Take a high-speed train to Wenzhou South Station—Take a bus to Anlan Pavilion Pier—Take a ferry to the opposite bank's Oubei Pier—The bus station is immediately to the left out of the pier—Take the Oubei to Yantan bus to Yantan Town (12; there is also a direct bus from Oubei to Lingkeng Ancient Village, departing around 13:30)—Charter a car from Yantan Town to Lingkeng Ancient Village (50)
It takes about 1 hour and 40 minutes from Oubei to Yantan Town; about 20 minutes from Yantan Town to Lingkeng Ancient Village
For the return trip, you can take the bus to Yantan Town before 8 am or charter a car
Others: Drive from Wenzhou; or take a bus from Oubei Station to Yantou Town, then from Yantou Town to Yantan Town, and charter a car to Lingkeng Ancient Village
★Accommodation Choices★
Myself: A stop in the small village (since it's a mountain village, the conditions of the homestays are very basic, everyone must be mentally prepared)
Others: There are many homestays in the ancient village to choose from, from the outside, the location and environment of Shanjian Farmhouse seem okay
★Travel Suggestions★
1. Since it is a primitive ancient village, it is not recommended for those who 'travel for enjoyment';
2. It is advised to come with friends, as the mountain village is remote, and it's good to have each other's company, so you won't feel too lonely;
3. It is suggested to stay for one night to experience the quietness of the mountain village and the flow of time;
4. Honestly, there are no particularly amazing spots in the village to check in; it is just a small mountain village, and you may need to manage your expectations for the trip;
5. You can stroll around the village; you can also play in the mountain streams behind the village; you can also take a round trip to the nearby Maogong Mountain (note that there's not much to see on Maogong Mountain); you can also go out of the village to the creek under the road
6. It is highly recommended to have dinner at the small village stop, the owner is a very good cook

The hidden land, the secret realm of Jiangnan, Linkeng ancient village
⛰️ Nestled among the overlapping mountains, the ancient village emerges in the misty twilight, with lights on, shrouded in mountain fog, and the sound of mountain streams, like a dream from another world.
🏞️ In Yongjia, Zhejiang, by the Nanxi River, during the Qingming festival, colorful petals fall silently, and the spring curtain has been lifted.
🔰 Hurry and capture the most beautiful moments with your camera, fearing that when you look back, this scene will no longer be there.
