Heading to a Summer Appointment | First Experience of Rafting on the Nanxi River
First Experience of Rafting on the Nanxi River. During my summer trip to Wenzhou, a friend from Wenzhou recommended the Nanxi River rafting, known as 'China's number one poetic rafting spot'.
🌟Route: Xiaogang Bamboo Rafting Pier to Shiziyan Bamboo Rafting Pier, with a total length of about 6 kilometers and a rafting duration of about 45 minutes
✅The bamboo rafting is most cost-effective for groups of four, with a per person cost of 90 yuan. If there are not enough people, you can wait a bit to see if other tourists come to join.
✅The boatman propels the raft with a long pole, moving along the clear stream, passing between continuous mountains. The stream is not deep, looking to be about waist-deep, with gentle water flow, making it suitable for both the elderly and children.
✅The mountains along the coast have various postures, allowing one to unleash their imagination and appreciate the natural wonders sculpted by nature.
✅Many camping enthusiasts set up camps along the riverbanks, opening up another way to experience the Nanxi River.
‼️Important Notes:
For rafting, it is recommended to wear light and comfortable clothing and waterproof shoes. Put on a life jacket🦺 before boarding, and consult the boatman before moving around or taking photos📷 on the boat. Do not walk around carelessly🙅🏻 in areas where the river flow is rapid.
