    It looks quite ethereal when the lights are on at night, but during the day it's just so-so. Prices inside aren't too high. Overall, it's alright. However, whether it's worth driving so far is a matter of opinion.

    The autumn harvest scene in Huangling truly lives up to its reputation! Built into the mountainside, the ancient Hui-style village is adorned with rooftop drying racks overflowing with red peppers, yellow corn, and golden chrysanthemums—a vibrant tapestry of colors resembling an overturned palette. This contrasts beautifully with the white walls and gray tiles, making every snapshot a stunning masterpiece. When the sun shines down, the crops gleam warmly, and the villagers' figures as they dry their crops add a touch of rustic charm, creating a heartwarming and comforting atmosphere of harvest. The local delicacies on Tianjie Street and the fresh mountain air further enhance the experience. Avoiding the peak season allows for a more tranquil appreciation of this unique folk custom. With its visually stunning scenery and nostalgic charm, it's an absolute must-see autumn gem!

    I visited Tengwang Pavilion myself in 2016, and this time, bringing my mother and girlfriend to Nanchang, it was a must-see again. The view from the top is still magnificent. The ticket was 50 yuan back then, but now it's 45 yuan online, which is still good value considering its fame.

    My trip to Mount Lu was a true feast for the soul, leaving me captivated and reluctant to leave. Mount Lu boasts unparalleled natural scenery, renowned for its "majesty, wonder, danger, and beauty." The Five Old Men Peaks stand majestically, resembling five elderly men sitting side-by-side, appearing and disappearing in the mist, seemingly telling tales of time's vicissitudes. The Three-Tiered Spring is even more magnificent, its waterfall cascading down in three tiers like a silver river falling from the heavens, its roar awe-inspiring, leaving one in awe of nature's artistry. Mount Lu is not only outstanding in its natural scenery but also rich in cultural heritage. It is a favorite destination for scholars and poets; many famous figures such as Tao Yuanming, Li Bai, and Su Shi left behind timeless masterpieces here. Strolling through the mountains, one can almost feel their poetic sentiments. Furthermore, Mount Lu presents the unique phenomenon of five religions coexisting on one mountain, with religious buildings like Donglin Temple bearing witness to historical changes. The service at the scenic area was also exceptionally attentive. Lushan now operates on a single-ticket system, allowing unlimited entry and exit to the core scenic area and ten surrounding attractions within seven days, facilitating in-depth exploration for tourists. The sightseeing buses are well-organized, and there are even dedicated shuttle buses for sunrise viewing, making travel easy and convenient. The cable car stations also offer complimentary intangible cultural heritage tea cakes and spring water, demonstrating thoughtful attention to detail. In short, Lushan is a superb tourist destination that combines natural beauty with rich cultural heritage. Everyone can find their own unique enjoyment here, making it well worth a visit.

    We took the long loop, which took 8.5 hours in total. We took the cable car up and down the Waishuangxi River and traveled counterclockwise. The scenery was fantastic, magnificent, and the blue sky and white clouds were amazing. However, the route along the Sunshine and West Coast was too long, and we missed some key attractions. We felt bad about not going to see them, but we decided to just go with the mindset that we were already there. It was just too tiring, especially since it was all boardwalk.

    Taoyangli Tourist Area is a national 4A-level scenic spot, consisting of the Imperial Kiln Site National Archaeological Site Park, the Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Museum, and surrounding alleyways and residences. It's a "living fossil" of this ancient town, the site where royal porcelain was exclusively produced during the Ming and Qing dynasties. The porcelain shards buried underground share the same origin as those in the Forbidden City, holding the "secret" to Jingdezhen's world-renowned fame. Personally, I think the entrance fee is a bit expensive, but I heard it's free after 8 pm.

    Definitely worth a visit! During the day, you can enter the park and play games with the NPCs to earn silver coins to exchange for small gifts and participate in auctions. Games include drumming, rock-paper-scissors, "3, 2, 1, look this way," and push-ups, etc. At night, the lights are incredibly photogenic. Be sure to check the show times and durations to avoid running back and forth. The fire-pot and water-based fire-pot shows, iron flower displays, and drone shows are fantastic; arrive early to secure a good spot. If you're staying at a hotel within the scenic area, be sure to inquire about the check-out time. I didn't stay at a hotel within the scenic area, but I heard that check-out is at 7 AM the next morning!

    This was my first time visiting Wugong Mountain. The scenery along the way was beautiful, with dense forests in the first section and alpine meadows in the second. Although it was tiring to climb all the way to the Golden Summit, it was well worth the trip.

    This attraction is excellent, telling the story of the Marquis of Haihun in the Western Han Dynasty, including the currently discovered ruins and treasures. It's a large-scale site, and while many areas still require further investigation and research, the visitor flow is already clear. 👍👍

    Our tour guide, Xiaofeng, was a gentle and polite young man. He explained things attentively and was very familiar with the museum's collection. He provided detailed explanations of the development of ceramic technology in various dynasties and the museum's finest pieces. It turns out he was even a student at a ceramics university! No wonder he was so professional and detailed. I learned a lot from his explanations and highly recommend him.
