Hiking through Xiqiao, exploring the sacred Guanyin realm, flower seas, and cliff carvings
Spring is in full bloom, making it the perfect season for hiking! This time, I embarked on a journey to visit the fairyland of Foshan—Xiqiao Mountain. Nearly 5 hours of hiking from the foot to the top of the mountain, under the lotus seat of the Guanyin statue, every step was filled with surprises!

🌸 A sea of flowers in spring, a paradise for photography enthusiasts
Spring is the most beautiful season on Xiqiao Mountain! Peach blossoms, camellias, and azaleas compete to bloom, forming a colorful dragon of flowers. Strolling through the sea of flowers is like being in a fairy tale world, a must-visit for photography enthusiasts!

It happened to rain when we went, the air was very fresh and fragrant. The scenic spot is very large. We only went to Baibu ladder, Cuiyan, Baofeng Temple, Biyun Cave and it was not about 20,000. Everyone must wear a pair of shoes to play.
Gui is one of the four famous mountains in Guangdong, Xiqiao Mountain, in fact, is not high, the scenery is not bad, Baofeng Temple is magnificent, Guanyinxiangzhuang is solemn, it is rainy when I go, there are not many people, and I am not tired after a walk. I feel pretty good.
The scenic spot is very big! Tourist tickets must! Tickets need to be exchanged for physical tickets at the tourist service center and saved as vouchers for transfer in the park. Tickets and tickets are the most cost-effective to buy tickets with Ctrip Traveler members' attractions 21-20 coupons! The most famous Baofeng Temple is the Buddha statue of Guanyin, and there are still many steps to climb up. There is an exhibition room at the bottom of the statue, which mainly introduces the story of Guanyin into Buddha and twelve different forms of Guanyin. Because there is a prohibition on taking pictures on the spot, it is not taken. Tianhu Park is a bit far from Baofeng Temple and is an artificial reservoir.
Xiqiao Mountain is located in the center of the Pearl River Delta. It has many scenic spots and lakes, springs, ripples, rocks, walls, pools and platforms. Xiqiao Mountain Forest is deep moss, lush, cave-wall rock seams, and abundant water storage. The ancients praised it as "who believes in the thousand waterfalls, half moved in Xiqiao". Today it is called a green reservoir and a solid reservoir.
The scenic spot is very big! I feel that the battery car is still necessary, otherwise I will go dead. I entered from the south gate. I went to the south gate station, and I got off the viewing platform (Baofeng Temple) station. There was also a pavilion station on the return trip and the south gate station. I feel that there is still a place for improvement in the direction of the scenic spot. Some instructions have problems, including the schematic diagram next to the scenic spot. For example, Tianhu Park goes to Yiyouting Station. Seeing the schematic diagram gives the feeling that the lake is connected by the walk road, and it is actually necessary to turn over the mountain.
Xiqiao Mountain and Huang Feihong Hall package, Spring Festival discount, really cost-effective, strong economy and province, is great. 5A Scenic Area, worth visiting. The traffic arrangements in the scenic area are orderly, the service is in place, and the Spring Festival is strong.
