It's about a 10-minute walk to Lingfeng Scenic Area, and shuttle buses are available to other attractions. 🚌 Shuttle bus costs 40 yuan for unlimited rides over 3 days. · 📸 Photo spots ▫️ Spread your arms under Dalongqiu Waterfall (wide-angle upward shot!) ▫️ Take a family back view photo on the Fangdong iron chain bridge, surrounded by mist for a fairy-like atmosphere. ▫️ Capture creek hiking scenes under Guohe Bridge at Lingfeng. · ⚠️ Notes ▪️ Sunscreen hats + mosquito repellent are essential.
