Located in the Xiandu Scenic Area in Jinyun County, Lishui, Zhejiang, the core attractions are relatively compactly distributed, so it is recommended to set aside a whole day for an in-depth tour. Among them, Dinghu Peak, which definitely occupies the C position in the traffic search terms of the scenic spot, the 170.8-meter-high landscape known as "the best bamboo shoot in the world" is a must-see landmark. After entering the scenic spot, it is recommended to take the cableway to the mountain and overlook the entire canyon and the meandering stream from Buxu Pavilion. When the weather is clear and beautiful, Dinghu Lake on the top of the mountain appears looming among the pines, which directly fills the feeling of fairy spirit. After coming down from the mountain, follow the trail along the stream to the Huangdi Temple. It is the core ashram for worshiping the ancestors in the south. In the professional terminology of tourism, the term "Beiling South Temple" has a very high status. At a fixed time every day, there will be a performance of the tent raising ceremony, which gives a strong sense of immersion.

In the afternoon, when the light is softest, move to Zhutan Mountain. This is where blockbusters will appear, and the scene of "old farmers holding cows" in the standard description of the gaming experience is staged here, with performances usually held on weekends and holidays. Standing on the stone bridge, Dinghu Peak is reflected in the water. This is definitely the most typical interpretation of the city's core keyword "Xiandu". Then continue to visit Ni Weng Cave, which has a large number of cliff stone carvings from the Tang Dynasty. These are the traces left by the literati. Those who like calligraphy can spend half an hour here. Finally, we headed to Xiaochibi and walked along the suspended plank road on Longgeng Road to watch the sunset dye the Danxia cliffs red, perfectly avoiding the crowds.

🚗Transportation·Full analysis of high-speed rail and self-driving

The transportation options are extremely mature. It is first recommended to choose the high-speed rail. Take the high-speed rail to Jinyun West Station. Immediately after exiting the station, there will be a tourist express train that will go directly to the Xiandu Visitor Center. It takes about 20 minutes to take the tourist express train. It is also very convenient to take a taxi. The cost is about 30 yuan. Tourists who drive by themselves navigate to the "Xiandu Scenic Area Tourist Service Center" and drive off at the Jinyun exit on the Jinliwen Expressway. There are clear signs along the way. The transportation mode for traveling within the scenic area mainly relies on Jingjiao. The price is 20 yuan per person and can be used for an unlimited number of times. Its stations can cover all core attractions in the scenic area. As long as you wave, it will stop and let people ride, which is very humane. It should be noted that during the peak tourist season, the vehicle you drive may not be able to enter the core area of ​​the scenic spot. Drivers and passengers going to the scenic spot are required to park their cars in the visitor center parking lot, which has sufficient parking spaces.

💡Practical reference·Avoiding pitfalls and the best time

A few points that need to be reminded belong to the category of "Practical Reference for Tourists". The best time to visit includes the early morning period, which is the range from 6 to 8 o'clock, and the evening, which is the range from 16 to 18 o'clock. At this time, the light is softer, and the number of tour groups is relatively small. This is the golden time for photography and enjoying the scenery alone. The temperatures are the most comfortable in spring and autumn, but although summer is hot, playing in the water by the stream is uniquely fun. Be sure to wear comfortable sneakers, because you need to walk to the Xiaochibi plank road and the steps of Dinghu Peak. If you want to take a picture of the deserted aerial view of Zhutan Mountain, you must arrive before 8 o'clock. Finally, remember to pay attention to the mini program officially launched by the scenic spot to obtain the specific time of the performance and detailed information about the flow of people in real time, so that this trip, which can be called a paradise on earth, will not leave any regrets at all.
