Things to do in Jiayu

The scenery here is beautiful, the air is fresh, and it makes people feel refreshed. There are a variety of entertainment activities and the staff is warm and thoughtful. It is a great place to relax on vacation!

I entered the park at 7 PM, and the lights were already fully on, making it quite beautiful. Although the park is themed around Pigsy carrying his bride, there are basically only a few sculptures of Pigsy. The "Mermaid Aquarium," however, was ingenious and very pretty. As for the iron-smelling fireworks and the fireworks show, they were just so-so.

I came today on the last day of the Dragon Boat Festival. There were relatively few people, and the staff did not rush me as much as people said online. It was quite comfortable to soak in the hot springs. What touched me most was that when it was time to get off work, an aunt took me to the entrance of the scenic area, and a security guard named Chen took me to a place closer to home. He also kept emphasizing that it was free and that the people in small towns were relatively simple, and it would be best if the boss could give them a raise.

Visiting Chibi in October amidst autumn rains, a thin mist drifts across the Yangtze River. Looking north to Wulin, it feels like stepping back 1800 years to an ancient battlefield. Standing atop Chibi Rock, gazing at the rolling river, I finally understand the meaning of the line, "The great river flows eastward, its waves washing away countless heroes of the past. West of the old fortress, it is said, lies the Chibi of Zhou Yu of the Three Kingdoms." The stone statue of Zhou Yu stands silently here, the two characters "Chibi" on the cliff weathered by time. A river breeze carries the echoes of war drums and sails from bygone days. Across the river lies Wulin, the place where Cao Cao's army encamped and retreated after their defeat. Across the river, north and south, lies a fire that shaped the course of history. Ancient steles, massive rocks, the mighty Yangtze—a visit here is not merely about sightseeing, but about encountering the Three Kingdoms era.

A must-see in Wuhan is the Yellow Crane Tower! Purchase tickets online in advance for entry. The park is quite large, allowing for leisurely strolls. The enormous mural of white clouds and yellow cranes on the first floor of the main building is breathtaking. Each floor displays poems, calligraphy, and paintings from various dynasties, which you can read as you walk. Climbing to the top floor offers panoramic views of the Yangtze River and the Yangtze River Bridge, with a refreshing river breeze and expansive scenery. The park is beautifully landscaped with pavilions scattered throughout. If you don't want to climb the stairs, you can take the elevator to the top and then walk down each floor – very convenient for elderly people and children. After your visit, you can conveniently visit the red wall at Simenkou. Overall, it's a wonderful experience, fulfilling my dream of seeing the Yellow Crane Tower from textbooks.

There were no assigned seats, so you could sit anywhere. We spent most of our time on the third deck enjoying the view and taking photos. Although it was very hot outside, there was a breeze on both sides of the deck, so it wasn't too bad. There were karaoke machines and vendors selling snacks and drinks on both the second and third decks. The air conditioning on the second deck was very strong. We arrived at the pier half an hour early, and there was already a queue.

The tour takes approximately 3.5 hours. From the visitor transfer center, take a sightseeing bus to Tanziling. After descending Tanziling, proceed to the 185 Park, where you can take an electric cart or walk. From the 185 Park, take a sightseeing bus to the Interception Memorial Park. Finally, take a sightseeing bus to the Miniature Landscape Park (the park's exit), concluding the tour.

The environment is nice, with lots of greenery. This is my second time here. I used a student ticket this time; the first time I had a double ticket. The student ticket didn't affect my experience. The service was excellent, and it's very close to the high-speed rail station. I came all the way from Wuhan just to relax here.

Climbing to the top of Tengwang Pavilion and overlooking the Gan River, one is struck by its magnificent grandeur. Its upturned eaves and corners exude a timeless charm. The saying "The setting sun and the lone wild goose fly together" is truly fitting; as the premier pavilion in Jiangnan, this trip was well worth it!

Perhaps it's because you can't see anything on a rainy day, so I don't dare to say much about the scenery. You can usually see colorful birds in this season, but there's nothing happening now. However, I feel that the scenic area's management is still a bit lacking.
