#mountainview After encountering several reposts of drone shots of the Ruyi bridge on IG, I found out that Unitravel, a travel agency based in Hangzhou, was offering trips to to Shenxianju scenic spot. A bunch of friends and I signed up and we were not disappointed at all! We chose to take the cable car and only walked a bit to find escalators taking us further up. That was something none of us have seen before, definitely not on a mountain! We spotted a nice area with chairs and tables, surrounded by a few shops, where we sat and had our own packed lunches. We crossed two bridges before finally spotting the Ruyi bridge. I went to several glass bridges before and that one was indeed, the most impressive. While following the pathway, you’ll come across shops selling beverages and snacks. Fresh air & mountain views, a great combo for a getaway from the city! We walked in the sun for hours and were too exhausted to descend on foot. We chose to take the cable car again. There was a massive queue and we had to wait for an hour. #mountains#mountaintop#mountainescape#mountaingetaway#zhejiang#bridge#grouptour#travelstories#travelstories

I first spotted this bridge on @beautifuldestinations and immediately added it onto my bucket list. Being the solo traveler that I am; I planned a trip on my own even after noticing that getting there isn’t as efficient. Luckily, the @trip apartment I booked was only 5 minutes walking distance to the scenic area ticket sales office (Shenxianju tourist transfer center). At the scenic area, there’s a cable way option(not free) for people who aren’t necessarily there for hiking but rather the bridge itself or the greenery. After getting off the cable way there’s an outdoor escalator and as soon as you take that step off, that’s when the real hiking begins. Long story short; by the time I got to the bridge I was so exhausted I just took a few pictures, flew my drone and started hiking back to the Cableway. #hiking#nationalpark#urbanexplorer

🔰First time in Shenxianju? Here's a super detailed travel guide for lazy people‼️ 👂Foreword: I heard that Shenxianju is where immortals live? Then this mortal is going to absorb some immortal energy today! But even immortals have to eat and sleep, so this guide focuses on "down-to-earth cultivation"—limited budget, unlimited fun! 🚗【 Transportation Guide 】 🚵‍♂️Self-driving: Navigate to "Shenxianju Scenic Area." It takes 3–4 hours to arrive from the Yangtze River Delta region. Remember to fill up your gas tank, as the immortals don't provide charging stations. 🚄High-speed rail: Take the train to "Xianju South Station," then take a 30-minute taxi to the scenic area (don't worry, the driver won't be flying on a sword). 🚃Group tour: Suitable for lazy people. The downside is that the tour guide probably won't teach you any spells. 🏞️【 Must-see Attractions 】 ❤️Nantian Peak Glass Viewing Platform: Your legs might shake like jelly while standing on it, but posting photos on social media will get you 100 likes (caption: "This acrophobic conquered their fear today"). ❤️Ruyi Bridge: A bridge shaped like a Ruyi. Will walking across it bring you good luck? After crossing it, all I wanted was a meal. ❤️Guanyin Peak: From afar, it looks like Guanyin meditating. It's recommended to put your hands together and wish for "no rain tomorrow." ❤️Danzhu Leisure Valley: The water is so clear that you can see the fish laughing at your swimming style. It's a great place to play in the water during summer. ❤️Potan Ancient Town: Ancient streets and old houses. It's a good place to take photos in Hanfu, pretending to be a fairy (or a waiter). 🍜【 Foodie Cultivation Guide 】 🐔Xianju Sanhuang Chicken: The aristocrat of chickens, with tender meat. It's recommended to say, "This chicken lives a more refined life than I do." 🐠Small fish from Yong'an River: Deep-fried until crispy, even the bones are tempting. Fish: I die with my eyes open. 🥞Mai Bing: A local breakfast favorite. It's a carb bomb, but even immortals need to eat their fill to have the energy to climb mountains! 🍈Waxberries (summer only): Xianju waxberries are as big as ping pong balls and so sweet they'll make you question your existence. It's recommended to eat them while repenting, "Am I worthy?" 👨‍🍳【 Recommended Restaurants 】 ✅Taoyuan Renjia: The king of farmhouse cuisine. Don't hold back on ordering the Sanhuang Chicken. ✅Lao Jie Noodle Restaurant: A bowl of noodles with toppings will make even immortals envious. 🏨 【 Accommodation Recommendations 】 ✅Homestays near the scenic area: 100–200 yuan/night. Basic but clean, and the owner might even give you some homegrown oranges. ✅Hotels in Xianju County: 150–300 yuan. Cost-effective, but you'll need to sleep in a bit longer in the morning (20 minutes' drive from the scenic area). ✅Camping (for the brave): There are campsites near the scenic area. Count the stars at night and wake up to birdsong in the morning—a free, natural alarm clock! 📌 Practical Tips 🪪Tickets: Buy online in advance to save 10 yuan. You can buy a waxberry popsicle with the money you save. 🎒Equipment: Sports shoes are a must. I salute anyone who comes in high heels. 🌈Weather: The mountain weather is unpredictable. Bring an umbrella, otherwise, you'll have to comfort yourself with "this is immortal dew" when it rains. 🙅‍♂️Anti-scam: If you encounter an old man selling "cultivation secrets," run! (Unless you want to learn how to pick watermelons.) ⚠️Final Words A trip to Shenxianju, although I didn't learn how to fly on clouds, I gained— A nine-square grid for social media + sore legs + the joy of Sanhuang Chicken! (Note: You might walk like you're on cotton for three days after returning home. This is "post-cultivation syndrome," a normal phenomenon.)

We essentially covered the entire southern route: South Gate > South Cableway > Southern Heavenly Stairs > South Sea Bridge > Lotus Platform > Green Cloud Stairs/One-Line Sky > Crouching Dragon Bridge > Dream Bridge > Bright Mirror Platform > North Sea Platform > Ruyi Bridge > Peach Garden > Painted Screen and Smoke Clouds (Yangmei Manufacturing Bureau loop) > Maiden's Smile > Laojun Platform (a large stone platform offering elevated views) > Buddha's Shadow and Lotus Charm (popular photo spot, expect lines - we skipped it) > (Return to the hiking trail; those not hiking down can take the cable car) > Southern Heavenly Stairs > South Sea Bridge > Southern Hiking Trail > South Gate‼️ If you want a longer hike, you can take the northern loop at the fork, for example, head north from Ruyi Pavilion (Picture 4), but I suspect I wouldn't have had the energy to walk down the mountain if I'd added that loop. ‼️Plan your route and descent point in advance. There are many staff members along the way who are very friendly and helpful; don't hesitate to ask them for directions. Hiking down requires backtracking a section of the path, passing South Sea Bridge and continuing downwards (Picture 8). Start your hike early to avoid the noisy crowds of tour groups. Consider staying at a guesthouse at the foot of the mountain to get an early start. Prices at the small shops are reasonable and regulated. The staff throughout the scenic area are friendly and helpful. The entire area is well-managed, catering especially well to seniors. I saw several people in their seventies and eighties enjoying themselves. After your hike, satisfy your hunger at a local restaurant. Since Xianju High-Speed Rail Station is currently under construction, there are limited shopping options outside the station, with only a convenience store and a bakery inside. The return bus passes Wuyue Plaza (8 km from the high-speed rail station); you can ask the driver if they will stop there. 🔔Helpful Tips ◦ ☕️Food and Drinks: There are several restaurants and snack bars within the scenic area, but prices are relatively high. We recommend bringing your own snacks and water. ◦ ☁️Weather and Clothing👔: Mountain weather is unpredictable, so bring appropriate clothing and rain gear. Check the weather forecast in advance and be prepared. ◦ 🧳Equipment: Wear comfortable athletic shoes for easy walking. Bring a portable charger to keep your electronic devices powered up so you can capture those memorable moments. ◦ 📷Photography: Expect lines at popular photo spots. Plan your time accordingly to avoid delays. ❣️Come to Shenxianju for a romantic rendezvous with nature. Marvel at the breathtaking rock formations, and immerse yourself in the mystical atmosphere as you pursue your own "xianxia" dreams amidst the swirling mists!

“Mountains have mist, mist has wind, mornings have rosy clouds, rosy clouds fill the sky.” From afar, amidst the rolling hills, winds rise and clouds surge, enveloped in a verdant mist, just like a hidden paradise. When you board the cable car and ascend into the clouds, a peaceful, otherworldly paradise unfolds before your eyes.

Take the Nantian Cableway directly to the 869-meter mountain peak. The 360° fully transparent glass observation deck is suspended 45 meters in the air, with a sea of clouds churning below like a celestial wonderland. Those who dare to challenge themselves must take a "levitation photo"! (It is recommended to go up the mountain before 10:00 am to avoid cloud cover.) 3. "Ruyi Bridge" - Rainbow Crossing: The world's first double-curved glass bridge! Shaped like a jade Ruyi scepter, it spans the canyon. The upper layer is transparent, and the lower layer is hollowed out. When walking, the mountain wind blows through the bridge. Adventurous friends can try taking overhead shots of the "cloud walk"! At sunset, the bridge reflects golden light, as if stepping into the mythical world of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas." The observation deck is suspended at an altitude of 1,138 meters, so those with a fear of heights should be cautious. 4. Lotus Terrace: Walk through Nantian Bridge and continue on the right for a while to reach it. From above, it really looks like a blooming lotus flower. It's beautiful to watch the sunset here in the evening! Accommodation Recommendations: It is recommended to stay in Baita Town, which is not far from the scenic area and has late-night snacks. Prices are around 200 yuan. It is recommended to check the local weather forecast before your trip and take sun protection and rain gear. 💗Other Tips: Some discounts may require relevant documents.

At 4 AM, I waited for the sunrise at Shenxianju Scenic Area. Life is worth living! "A secret sunrise spot that Zhejiang locals don't dare to reveal, an epic of light hidden in the sea of clouds" At 4 AM, I walked towards Guanyin Peak with a flashlight in hand. The mountain wind stirred the pines, the stone steps under my feet gleamed with dew, and the entire Kuocang Mountain Range resembled a dormant beast. Until the first golden ray cracked the horizon. ▫️5:12 AM Glazed Fire The indigo sky was suddenly pierced, and the clouds resembled an overturned gilded cup. Morning mist condensed into a veil at an altitude of 1,300 meters, the silhouette of Guanyin Peak was gilded with a halo, and the opposite Zhanqi Peak was ablaze with rosy dawn—it turns out that when Li Bai wrote "clothed in rainbow clouds, riding the wind as my steed," this was the scene before his eyes. ▪️5:27 AM Immortals Crossing the Sea When the first ray of light pierced the Lotus Platform, the entire sea of clouds began to churn. The morning light raced across the Nantian Peak glass walkway, swept past the birds by Wenxian Bridge, and awakened the slumbering General Rock. At this moment, I finally understood why Xu Xiake visited this place three times and was still reluctant to leave. ▫️5:49 AM All Things Reborn Sunlight spilled over the Shiyi Xie Waterfall, and the mountain mist transformed into golden streams, meandering between the Five Finger Peaks. The aroma of latte wafted from the cliffside café, and young people on the walkway raised their gimbals. I saw fragments of light dancing on their eyelashes. [📸 Secret Sunrise Spots] 1️⃣ Lotus Platform: A suspended glass platform, stand on the clouds at sunrise. 2️⃣ Nantian Peak: A 99-meter suspended rope bridge, capture the moment when the light cascades down. 3️⃣ Buddha's Shadow and Lotus Charm: Wait between 5:15-5:20 AM to capture the Buddha's halo and the sea of clouds in the same frame. [🌄Sunrise Viewing Tips] ✅ Check the next day's sunrise time in advance and allow 1 hour for the climb. ✅ The probability of seeing a sea of clouds in autumn is as high as 70%, avoid the rainy season in June. ✅ The temperature at the summit is 8-10°C lower than in the city, bring a windproof jacket. ✅ Drones need to be registered, and some areas are no-fly zones.

Shenxianju is also known as "Tianmu Mountain" (pronounced mu'). Li Bai's "Dreaming of Wandering on Tianmu Mountain and Chanting a Farewell Poem" describes this mountain. The main peak, Daqinggang, has an altitude of 1,271 meters and is the largest volcanic rhyolite landform cluster in the world. The rocks here are of various shapes and colors. The wonders of nature and human ingenuity have created countless breathtakingly beautiful pictures. Shenxianju uses cable cars 🚡, escalators, and various mountain bridges to make it easier for people to enjoy the beautiful scenery on the top of the mountain ⛰️. ​

As the morning mist drifted over the verdant mountains, I stepped into Shenxianju, draped in a light, flowing Hanfu robe. This hidden gem, hailed by Xu Xiake as the "City of Smoke and Clouds," features eight suspended walkways that weave through the landscape like ribbons of ink and wash paintings, resembling jade belts casually tossed by celestial beings, winding around the majestic cliffs. Ascending swiftly on the nation's first mountainside elevator, the hundred-meter drop of the cliff rapidly receded behind me as my robe billowed. Stepping out of the elevator, the Nantian Peak observation deck greeted me with a breathtaking 270-degree panorama. The sea of clouds churned beneath my feet, and Guanyin Peak emerged faintly in the morning light, resembling a Bodhisattva holding a pure water bottle, gazing down upon the world. Arriving at Foying Lianyuan, the nine-tiered lotus pond reflected the ancient temple. Standing at the corner of the corridor, with my wide sleeves swaying gently, I couldn't distinguish whether I was in a painting or the painting moved with me. The streamlined Ruyi Bridge appeared and disappeared in the sea of clouds, its three interwoven steel cables resembling a coiling dragon. Reaching the center of the bridge, the mountain wind lifted my robe, and I seemed to hear the faint chime of ancient jade pendants. Walking towards Wolong Bridge, the atmosphere shifted. The bridge, naturally formed from stone, blended seamlessly with the surrounding pines and cypresses. In the misty rain, strolling across with an oil-paper umbrella felt like walking through a Song Dynasty landscape scroll. The most stunning sight was the Lotus Terrace. As dusk painted the skyline, standing on the lotus petal-shaped viewing platform, I watched the sunset gild the edges of Guanyin Peak. My robe, billowing in the mountain wind, resembled a blooming lotus. The distant temple bells echoed, and the click of the camera shutter captured not just images, but a poetic dialogue spanning millennia. Looking back as I descended, the peaks transformed into silhouettes of varying depths in the twilight. The mountains and rivers of Shenxianju never speak, yet they allow every traveler who arrives amidst the clouds to touch the soul of Chinese aesthetics in the moment their Hanfu robes flutter. This is not merely a scenic theater, but a flowing feast of Eastern aesthetics, inviting one to lose oneself in the poetry of the clouds, mountains, and mist. Travel tips: Hanfu rentals are available at the scenic area. Light-colored clothing is recommended for better photos. Foying Lianyuan and Lotus Terrace offer the best lighting at dawn and dusk. The mountain elevator saves energy and allows for easy access to the summit.

The South Zenith is mainly composed of a suspended glass observation deck, with an altitude of 869 meters. The tower is 30 meters high, cantilevered 45 meters, and suspended 400 meters in the air. The glass plank road is pretty good. Standing on the observation deck, you can overlook the magnificent scenery of the entire Shenxianju Scenic Area: forest peaks and rocks, canyon streams, etc. Internet celebrity check-in spot: There are too many people at the worship platform, so I won’t join in the fun. ⚠️The view from the South Zenith is quite good. You need to buy a ticket, which costs 80 yuan. The cafe is also good, but the coffee is a bit expensive, 45 yuan for a cup of Americano☕️. I rested for nearly an hour and looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window. It was quite comfortable.

There is also a shuttle bus to the South Gate for 5 yuan per person. 🌟Summary: It's definitely worth the climb. The mountain scenery is spectacular, with high altitudes and bridges connecting the mountain ranges. Walking between the cliffs is thrilling, and there's also a via ferrata to experience.

If you're interested, come and take on the challenge! The scenic spot to introduce is Shenxianju Scenic Area, a national 5A-level scenic spot, a national scenic area, and a national geopark. It was originally named Xiyansi Scenic Area, historically known as Tianmu Mountain, and also called Weiqiang Mountain. Historically, the history of Shenxianju Scenic Area can be traced back to the third year of the Yonghe era (347) during the reign of Emperor Mu of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. At that time, the county was established and named Le'an. It was abolished and reestablished several times during the Sui and Tang dynasties. In the fifth year of the Baozheng era (930) of the Wuyue Kingdom during the Five Dynasties period, it was renamed Yong'an. In the fourth year of the Jingde era (1007) of the Northern Song Dynasty, Emperor Zhenzong of Song renamed it "Xianju" (meaning "abode of immortals") because of its "famous mountains and caves, surrounded by natural barriers, and many residences of immortals." Today, Shenxianju Scenic Area has become the "laziest" scenic spot in Zhejiang, where you can climb mountains effortlessly. Even at the age of 70, you can climb to the top in one go, which is delightful!
