The Mortal World Beneath the Immortal Mountain

Who says Anhui only has Huangshan⛰️ I found another gem in southern Anhui! A treasure trove for nighttime adventures in Anhui🌃 This is the immortal mountain🏔️ praised by Emperor Qianlong as "the most beautiful peak south of the Yangtze." Here, mist-shrouded peaks⛰️ and thousand-year-old Taoist temples🏯 Create a real-life fantasy world of immortals☁️ It’s also the ultimate spot for nighttime exploration in Huangshan🔝 A perfect summer getaway🎒 Just returned from this magical✨ place And compiled a super-detailed guide📝 Save this, folks‼️ 📍Qiyun Mountain, Anhui 🚗Transport: Take the high-speed train to Huangshan North Station, then a 30-minute taxi ride. For self-driving, navigate to "Qiyun Mountain Visitor Center"—parking is free during holidays. 🌿【2-Day 1-Night Foolproof Itinerary】Lazy travelers, copy this and avoid pitfalls! - 「🌙Day 1: Experience the Mortal World Beneath the Immortal Mountain」 🏨Stay: Head straight to **Yuehua Resort Hotel**—steps away from Qiyun Town, perfect for exploring and dining, with local breakfast specialties! 🚣Play: Afternoon bamboo rafting on the Heng River, gliding past lush green mountains as the evening breeze brings cool relief! 🌃 Free 20 intangible cultural heritage performances: 1️⃣ Golden Dragon Dance: Dozens of rafts form a golden dragon on the river, lights reflecting on the water like a scene from mythology—photos can’t capture the awe! 2️⃣ Iron Fireworks: Molten iron at thousands of degrees splashes into the night sky, raining down like meteors—arrive 30 minutes early to snag a front-row spot at the visitor center square! 3️⃣ Fish Lantern Parade: A lantern-lit procession leads the crowd to the fireworks show, amping up the vibe! 4️⃣ Fireworks Display: When iron sparks, fish lanterns, and fireworks collide, you’ll be left speechless—trust me. - 「☀️Day 2: Hike the Immortal Mountain and Breathe in Fresh Air」 🚠Transport: Take the Yuehua Cable Car up to save energy—the Danxia mountain views from above look like a spilled palette! 📍 Must-visit spots: 🔸 Yuxu Palace: A Taoist temple tucked beneath cliffs, with steep cliffs overhead and even a stone tablet by Tang Bohu! 🔸 Yuehua Sky Street: A Hui-style village perched on cliffs, home to locals—post-rain clouds make mornings feel like a fairy tale! 🔸 Danxia Corridor: Rolling red rock formations—every step on the plank path is photo-worthy, especially in golden sunlight! 🔸 Little Pot Heaven: Legend says Lü Dongbin refined elixirs here! The gourd-shaped cave entrance is unique, and inside you’ll find dinosaur fossils and footprints—educational and Instagrammable. 🚌Descent: Take the cable car back from Wangxian Tower, then savor a bowl of local wontons at the foot of the mountain.
