My hometown is Wushan
When the mountains are full of red leaves - Wushan Three Gorges Red Leaves Free Travel Guide. The movie 'When the Mountains are Full of Red Leaves' once told us 'The mountains are full of red leaves like rosy clouds, and the red leaves reflect the Three Gorges every year.' Tang Dynasty poet Yuan Zhen also didn't deceive us 'It's hard to be water once you've been to the sea, except for Wushan, it's not a cloud.' The Three Gorges red leaves have been very famous since ancient times. Because the older generation has grown old, the Three Gorges red leaves have not been well promoted in the era of self-media. And the best place to view the Three Gorges red leaves is on both sides of the Wuxia in Wushan. The north bank is mainly based on Wenfeng Guan, mainly Huang Lu, with a super large scale and exaggerated red. The south bank is mainly based on the Goddess Scenic Area, mainly colorful forests and fiery red Huang Lu intertwined. Tour suggestions:
D1, Wushan high-speed rail to Wenfeng Guan, directly from the high-speed rail station to Wenfeng Guan Visitor Center, just over ten kilometers. The ticket is 40 yuan, and the high-speed rail ticket can be half price. The area near the Zhen Shui Tower is a classic check-in location, with red leaves all over the mountain, like a fiery red carpet laid on the entire mountain. After checking in, keep climbing up to Wenfeng Guan, turn right and cross the road and then go up to the mountain top trail. Overlooking Wuxia, the beauty and shock of Wuxia are indescribable. Then return to the visitor center, take the scenic area shuttle bus back to the city for check-in. In the evening, you can eat Wushan grilled fish, paper-wrapped fish, the taste is absolutely right, the average consumption is 30-50.
D2, arrive at Wushan Visitor Center at 10 o'clock in the morning and take the bus to Liuping to visit the Goddess Sky Road, about 40 minutes. Sightseeing car + Huangyan cable car ticket 75. The Goddess Sky Road from Liuping to Huangyan Visitor Center is a total of 12 kilometers. All the way through the colorful forest, you can enjoy Wuxia up close. The sightseeing car can stop at several important check-in points. After visiting the Goddess Sky Road, you arrive at the Huangyan Cableway, take the downhill cableway to check in at the Red Leaf Slope. The red leaves of the Red Leaf Slope mainly play a foreground role. On the more than one kilometer plank road, you take photos with red leaves as the foreground. I dare say you have never encountered such a beautiful foreground. It's so beautiful, it's so red. After visiting the Red Leaf Slope, take the cableway uphill, then take the scenic area electric sightseeing car back to Liuping, and then take the bus back to the city.
tips1: The Goddess Scenic Area on the south bank of Wuxia mainly plays colorful forests, among which the Red Leaf Slope mainly plays Huang Lu red leaves. And the Wenfeng Guan Scenic Area on the north bank mainly plays Huang Lu red leaves. Whether on the north or south bank, the view of the Three Gorges is at the ceiling level.
tips2: There is no need to book a hotel in advance! There is no need to book a hotel in advance! There is no need to book a hotel in advance! Say it three times for important things. Because Wushan city is very close to the scenic area, there are many accommodation resources, and it is cheaper to go directly to the hotel than to book online, and there are more choices. After all, there is a platform draw for online booking, and this part of the cost is naturally transferred to the passengers. A passable hotel standard room can be obtained for about 150.
tips3: It's very cold in the morning, Wenfeng Guan is 700-1000 meters above sea level, and the Goddess Sky Road is about 1000 meters above sea level. Please be sure to bring an extra piece of clothing, just in case.
tips4: The red leaves are now at their best! Don't believe in the wait-and-see party, saying that the best viewing period for red leaves is not until mid-December. Maybe there are still some in Wenfeng Guan in mid-December, but the Goddess Scenic Area has already fallen off.
Note: p1-p7 Wenfeng Guan Scenic Area. p8-p11, Goddess Scenic Area Red Leaf Slope. p12-p18, Goddess Scenic Area Goddess Sky Road

A New Landmark for Yangtze River Night Cruise | The stunning night view of the 'Three Gorges of Wushan Light Show' is breathtaking
The 'Three Gorges of Light. A grand situational night cruise in Chongqing's Wushan
So splendid | Illuminating Wushan | The night view is incredibly beautiful!
Take the high-speed train to tour the Three Gorges, step into the northeast of Chongqing, the first stop, to appreciate the beauty of Wushan...
MEMORYIMAGE©️📷 Seeing Chongqing Again
🌟Highlights:
Wushan, known as the 'Gateway to the Northeast of Chongqing,' is characterized by its towering mountains and deep valleys, lush vegetation, creating famous landscapes such as the Wushan Gorges of the Yangtze River, the Lesser Three Gorges, the Mini Three Gorges, the Twelve Peaks of Wushan (especially the renowned Goddess Peak), and the Goddess Stream.
Watching the large-scale Yangtze River situational night cruise 'Three Gorges of Light' is an essential part of Wushan's night tour.
❤Recommended Reason:
'Three Gorges of Light' is a situational night cruise tailored for Wushan, with Wushan culture, Three Gorges culture, and Yangtze River culture at its core. It uses modern technology's light and shadow techniques as ink, the millennia-old cliffs as the canvas, and the waters of the Yangtze River as the brush, creating a 'landscape beauty on both sides, a grand cultural feast that connects heaven and earth.' It is a new landmark for night cruises in the Yangtze River basin.
The entire situational night cruise performance lasts about 60 minutes, specifically divided into 7 major chapters such as 'Setting Sail into the Painting,' 'Wushan Clouds and Rain,' 'Poetry and Dance Through the Ages,' 'The Great Beauty of Wushan,' allowing tourists to deeply experience the essence of Wushan culture while enjoying the night view of Wushan.
As the cruise ship slowly starts, a dazzling light show gradually unfolds. The beautiful lights of Wushan and the neon lights of the city complement each other, captivating the eyes of onlookers.
Inside the cruise ship, drama, song and dance performances, and poetry recitals take turns on stage, combined with the large-scale light and shadow performance on the riverbank, achieving a true 'internal-external linkage' and 'combination of reality and illusion.'
Scene by scene, the performance showcases the long-standing historical and cultural connotations of Wushan from ancient times to the present.
🕙Night Cruise Time: 20:00-21:00
🎫Night Cruise Ticket: 68 yuan for the first floor, 98 yuan for the second floor.
📍Detailed Address: No. 111 Ningjiang Road, Gaotang Sub-district, Wushan County, Chongqing

Chongqing Wushan | Discover a very niche but beautiful place
This time to Chongqing Wushan, I found a very niche but beautiful place, that is, the Goddess Scenic Area.
The mountain road twists and turns all the way. When the car stops at the Goddess Sky Road viewing platform, everyone in the car exclaims. The view here is wide, the mountains are continuous, and the Yangtze River is underfoot. From time to time, one or two cruise ships pass by, and the Goddess Peak is opposite, often shrouded in clouds and mist.
There is also a glass plank road, which is very thrilling and exciting. Underneath is the abyss, which is a challenge for those who are afraid of heights.
There are several viewing platforms along the way, and the scenery is very beautiful. Looking at the Yangtze River outside the mountains at sunset, there is a grandeur of the sky.
One of the viewing platforms can see the Goddess Peak, which is said to be the incarnation of Yaoji, the daughter of Emperor Yan, who turns into clouds in the morning and rain in the evening, so it is often shrouded in clouds and mist. About the goddess, there are many legends and poems from ancient times to the present, such as Xiang Wang has a heart and the goddess has no dreams, the goddess should be fine, the world is different today, etc., in short, it is a very magical mountain.
Stay in a homestay halfway up the mountain at night, the room is very good, very spacious, the facilities and equipment are very new, close to the Watchtower viewing platform, you can see the sunrise.
We got up at five o'clock and went to the viewing platform, waited for more than an hour, but unfortunately there was no sunrise this morning. Fortunately, when we were ready to go down the mountain, the clouds and mist rose halfway up the mountain, and the mountains were looming, like a fairyland.
The car is driving on the road, and the sea of clouds is below, which feels very strange.
What surprised me most about the Goddess Scenic Area is that not only is the scenery beautiful, but there are also few tourists, so you can quietly watch the scenery.
If you also like quiet, less crowded and beautiful places, you can go to Wushan Goddess Peak.
Goddess Sky Road, the promise of red leaves
The most beautiful season of the Three Gorges in a year - the red leaf season has arrived!
The river is full of red leaves like fire on both sides of the river, and the forest is dyed
Contrasting sharply with the green river
Forming a heavy-colored landscape painting
Red leaf varieties
The red leaves of the Three Gorges are mainly composed of yellow oak, black locust, maple, etc.
The colors are mostly blood red, wine red and other twenty distinct colors
The area of red leaves in the Three Gorges exceeds 100,000 mu
Distributed among the mountains and canyons on the south bank of the Yangtze River, from Yichang in the east to Fengjie in the west
The most worth seeing red leaves are concentrated along the river
Especially the scenery of the Wu Gorge section is the best!!
Goddess Sky Road
The mountain road between the cliffs is the best place to watch the Wu Gorge
On the opposite side is the beautiful Goddess Peak, and the Yangtze River meanders in the canyon to the distance.
Wu Gorge
Or take a cruise to enjoy the ultimate red leaf beauty on both sides
Or walk through the Wu Gorge Gallery, shuttle among the red leaves, and sigh at the spectacular scene of 'once the sea was hard to be water, except for Wushan is not a cloud'! The red leaves of Wushan in the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River are the most characteristic, largest in area, most diverse, most beautiful, longest viewing period, highest viewing value, best landscape combination, and most flexible touring method.
Wushan in Chongqing is a touch of red that cannot be missed
In the early winter, the Jiang, mountains, and red leaves in the Wushan County area of the Yangtze River Three Gorges in Chongqing form a unity, showing a magnificent new landscape where the high gorge and flat lake are reflected by the mountains of red leaves. Wushan's red leaves have nearly 200 varieties such as yellow locust, black locust, and red maple, with a total area of over 1.2 million mu, and 200,000 mu can be viewed in concentrated areas. Due to the unique mountainous climate, it begins to turn red in mid-October every year, and the viewing period lasts for about 3 months.

The Goddess (Shennv) Peak Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Chongqing Wushan | Four Days Three Nights Practical Guide
Last month I went to Chongqing Wushan for four days and three nights, with a total cost of about 1500 yuan. I found that Wushan is a place with few people and beautiful scenery. The grilled fish is very delicious, suitable for friends who like niche attractions. Here is my itinerary for reference.
Day One:
Take the high-speed train from Chongqing to Wushan, the fare is 200 yuan, and the journey takes two hours. Stay in the Quanji Hotel in the county town, clean and hygienic, you can see the river view, the price is more than 300 yuan (less than 200 per capita).
Visit Wushan Museum in the afternoon, where there are the earliest human fossils in China - Wushan Man fossils, and many treasures of the town hall.
In the evening, go to the pier to eat the most authentic Chongqing grilled fish Wushan grilled fish, the taste is super good, even I, a Guangdong person who doesn't like spicy food, can't stop eating, it can be said that it is the best grilled fish I have ever eaten.
After dinner, continue to take a boat at the pier to experience the Three Gorges Night Tour, the fare is 98 yuan, although the night view of the mountain city is not as atmospheric as Shanghai and Guangzhou, but combined with mountains and rivers, and clouds and fog, it is very dreamy and wonderful.
Day Two:
After breakfast at the hotel, go to the pier to take a boat to tour the Little Three Gorges, the fare is 120 yuan (including the ticket for the Little Little Three Gorges), the whole journey is 4 hours. This is one of the earliest 5A scenic spots in China, composed of Longmen Gorge, Ba Fog Gorge, and Dripping Green Gorge. The mountains and valleys along the way are crisscrossed, sometimes with flying waterfalls, sometimes with hanging coffins, and four hours passed unconsciously.
Return to the county town for lunch at noon, and then go to the Goddess Scenic Area. The Goddess Sky Road is very spectacular. You can see the Yangtze River winding from the foot to the distance. You can experience the artistic conception of the poem 'A lone sail is far away in the blue sky, only the Yangtze River flows to the end of the sky'.
After watching the sunset, stay in a homestay near the watchtower. The conditions are very good, spacious and clean, and dinner and breakfast are also eaten at the homestay.
Day Three:
Go to the watchtower in the morning to watch the sunrise of the Goddess Peak. If you are lucky, it will be very spectacular. Unfortunately, it was cloudy when we went there, but fortunately there was a sea of clouds, which was like a fairyland.
Leave the Goddess Sky Road scenic area and go to the Goddess Peak. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can overlook all the small mountains, which is very spectacular. If it is in mid to late November when the leaves are red, it will be more beautiful.
In the afternoon, take a boat to tour the Goddess Creek, watch the Goddess Peak up close, and stay in a homestay by the river. Dinner and breakfast are also eaten at the homestay.
Day Four:
Watch the sunrise of the Goddess Peak in the morning, and after breakfast, take a boat back to the county town, and then go to Dachang Ancient Town, and return in the afternoon.
If you have time, you can go to Xiaozhuang, a village that has been isolated from the world for a long time. When we went to Wushan, the road was closed due to continuous rain and road collapse, so we didn't go.
The above is the four-day and three-night guide to Wushan. If you have any questions, you can leave a message. If you want to know more travel guides, welcome to follow Mango Travel Diary.

Goddess Sky Road, the promise of red leaves
The most beautiful season of the Three Gorges in a year - the red leaf season has arrived!
The river is full of red leaves like fire on both sides of the river, and the forest is dyed
Contrasting sharply with the green river
Forming a heavy-colored landscape painting
Red leaf varieties
The red leaves of the Three Gorges are mainly composed of yellow oak, black locust, maple, etc.
The colors are mostly blood red, wine red and other twenty distinct colors
The area of red leaves in the Three Gorges exceeds 100,000 mu
Distributed among the mountains and canyons on the south bank of the Yangtze River, from Yichang in the east to Fengjie in the west
The most worth seeing red leaves are concentrated along the river
Especially the scenery of the Wu Gorge section is the best!!
Goddess Sky Road
The mountain road between the cliffs is the best place to watch the Wu Gorge
On the opposite side is the beautiful Goddess Peak, and the Yangtze River meanders in the canyon to the distance.
Wu Gorge
Or take a cruise to enjoy the ultimate red leaf beauty on both sides
Or walk through the Wu Gorge Gallery, shuttle among the red leaves, and sigh at the spectacular scene of 'once the sea was hard to be water, except for Wushan is not a cloud'! The red leaves of Wushan in the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River are the most characteristic, largest in area, most diverse, most beautiful, longest viewing period, highest viewing value, best landscape combination, and most flexible touring method.
Going to Wushan to watch the beautiful scenery of the Goddess Peak, if you want to have a panoramic view, then you must take a look at the Wangxia Trail that runs between the peaks of the mountains. Wangxia Trail, a wooden plank road that is more than one kilometer long, is built on the mountain. It changes with the change of the mountainous terrain, and it rises and falls and squats away. Looking from afar, on the top of the mountain, between the green, the Wangxia Trail is like a brown ribbon, swaying over the mountains.
Walk on the trail, stepping on the flat planks at the foot, occasionally making a sound of two or two crisp sounds, holding the fence like a tree branch in your hand, looking around, it is a layer of cypress, it is also a bottomless cliff. And the mist floating in the side, layer by layer, piece by piece, disappeared in a flash, and suddenly appeared, dreams and real, can not help but give people a "Zhuang Zhouxiao dream fan butterfly" illusion. Or maybe it was because of the light rain. Looking forward, the trails were hidden in the fog, and even the goddess in the distance became fascinating and more charming. Its a fascinating scene, and its like a fairyland.
Whether walking, admire the red leaves hidden in the lush greenery, look for the looming goddess in the clouds; or sit on the wooden chair of the trail and suck the fresh air deeply, thinking about it The myths and legends about the goddess are all interesting things. When you reach the top of the mountain, you can't help but think of the distant sky. If it is sunny, what kind of scenery should it be? Presumably, when the morning glow rises, the golden light is shining, the mountains are covered, and the evening glow will be gone.
