Xingyi Wanfeng Lake | An Underrated Mountain and Lake Paradise

💡 Who says Guizhou only has Huangguoshu? This blue tear surrounded by karst mountains is breathtakingly beautiful! Every casual photo looks like a National Geographic cover - few tourists and stunning scenery awaits! 🌊 Recommended Activities 1️⃣ Immersive mountain viewing by boat 💰 Entrance + boat ticket: 120 yuan (worth every penny!) ⏳ Suggest taking the evening cruise when the sunset turns 600+ peaks golden, reflecting on the lake surface - romantically speechless! 2️⃣ Pretend you're in Europe at Jilong Castle 🏰 A fairytale castle on a lake island! Drone shots are amazing (location: "Hongchun Dock"). Wear light-colored dresses for better photos, and visit after 4 PM for soft, non-backlit lighting ✨ 3️⃣ Angler's Paradise 🎣 Many free fishing platforms around the lake! Locals reveal that "Bajie Town" in the southwest corner has the most fish. Catch tilapia and have it cooked at a local farmhouse - deliciously fresh! 🍜 Foodie Radar ▫️ Buyi Sour Bamboo Shoot Fish: Navigate to "Wanfeng Lake Fishing Village" - sour and spicy soup with freshly caught fish, remember to add mint! ▫️ Five-colored Sticky Rice: Go early to "Nanpan River Town Market" - 3 yuan/serving, made with natural plant dyes, super photogenic 🌈 📌 Insider Tips ✅ Stay at a lakeside guesthouse! Recommend "Fengxi Halfway" with 270° floor-to-ceiling windows facing ink-painting-like scenery, low season 200+ yuan per person ✅ Sunscreen! Sunscreen! UV reflection from the water is super strong (learned the hard way 😭) 📍 Location: Wanfeng Lake Scenic Area, Xingyi City, Southwest Guizhou 🚗 3-hour drive from Guiyang / 40-minute taxi from Xingyi high-speed rail station
