[2025 Yongjia Attraction] Travel Guide for Yaxiaku Scenic Spot (Updated Apr)

Don’t want to give too much away. Though many people have posted about this place I wanted to see it for myself. It’s a nice little walk up the hill or mountain. It was the first time I got there super early and there was no one there for hours, it was very peaceful. There is a bridge with spaces made of glass for extra 30 Chinese yuan. The entrance to the park is 50. The 50 is worth it. I also saw zip lining, but didn’t figure how to get access to it if you like to hike and still a lot of walking and conquer your fear of falling. This is a great place to go even the nice locals took us down the mountain to the public bus #dontfall #dontlitter

Before going to Yongjia, I went to enjoy the persimmon trees in autumn and added Donglu Village and Xilu Village to my travel guide. But from Long'an Village at the foot of Yaxiaku Mountain in Dayuoyan Town, I came across a stunning persimmon tree. The persimmon trees are strong and upright, showing their grace among the old houses. The tree is not very tall, and the persimmons are not very dense. But this "old man from the deep mountains" who suddenly appeared at the turn of the river, It gave the travelers an unexpected surprise. Wild lilies also have their spring, The orchid in the valley is waiting for someone to smell its fragrance. The Nanxi River is such a large river basin that there are many places to enjoy persimmon trees. The beautiful scenery all over the mountains is better than the crowded internet celebrity spots that are packaged over and over again. 🚵🏻‍♂️Address: Longyan Village, Daluoyan Town, Yongjia 🚘Navigation: "Long'an Village", just at the foot of Yaxiaku Mountain 📣Surroundings: Taogong Cave, Twelve Peaks, Baizhang Waterfall, Shimen Terrace, Daitou Ancient Village, Yongjia Academy, etc.
