Top 10 attractions in Anyi
Anyi Old Kwan
Anyi Village is located in the foothills of the Meiling Mountain to the West of Nanchang, just 60 kilometers from the city center. The area is comprised of three adjacent villages including Luotian Village, Shuinan Village and Jingtai Village. It was once a bustling hub of mercantile business. Today, the village is still home to many locals, containing perfectly preserved buildings in ancient architectural style, and ancient streets with ruts from long ago are still clearly visible. The blooming canola flowers that blossom in the spring make it a beautiful destination for weekend excursions.Anyi · 12.1km from downtown
Meiling National Scenic Area
Meiling National Scenic Area is located in the bay to the northwest of Nanchang City. Originally called Feihong Mountain, this is where Meifu practiced Daoism in the Western Han Period; thus, it was renamed to Meiling. The area is quite large and close in proximity to both Poyang Lake and Lushan. The facilities offer a wide range of activities, including Xiyao Lake on Luohanling, the main peak of the Meiling Mountains, making it a great place to beat the summer heat. Before the peak lie hundreds of Buddhist and Daoist temples, among them Tianning Ancient Temple and Ziyang Palace, both of which are sure to make a memorable visit.Nanchang · 19.1km from Anyi
Tengwang Pavilion Tourist Area
Tengwang Pavilion Tourist Area is located on the east bank of the Gan River in Nanchang, with the riverside Tengwang Pavilion as its centerpiece. Originally built in the fourth year of the Yonghui era of the Tang Dynasty by Li Yuanying, Prince of Teng and son of Emperor Gaozu of Tang, it gained eternal fame through Wang Bo's "Preface to Tengwang Pavilion." Alongside the Yellow Crane Tower and Yueyang Tower, it is hailed as one of the "Three Great Towers of Jiangnan." Historically destroyed and rebuilt nearly thirty times, the current structure is a Song-style replica completed in 1989, designed based on Liang Sicheng's reconstruction sketches. With its green tiles and layered eaves, it remains a landmark of Nanchang to this day. The main pavilion follows a "three visible, seven concealed" layout: appearing as a three-story structure with encircling corridors from the outside, while actually containing seven interior floors—nine levels including the two-tiered base symbolizing ancient city walls. Turquoise-roofed galleries extend north and south from the base's flanks, connecting at their ends to auxiliary pavilions named "River-taming" and "Greenery-embracing," forming a mountain-shaped silhouette with the main tower. Below, an artificial lake and the nine-bend wind-and-rain bridge add classical garden charm to the majestic architecture. Each floor of the pavilion offers something remarkable. The white marble relief "A timely wind delivers Tengwang Pavilion" in the first-floor preface hall depicts the legend of Wang Bo riding the wind to compose his famous preface. The second-floor mezzanine features the long scroll painting "Gallery of eminent figures," gathering Jiangxi's historical luminaries like Tao Yuanming, Ouyang Xiu, Wang Anshi, and Tang Xianzu in one artwork. The third-floor mural "Linchuan dream" recreates Tang Xianzu's staging of "The peony pavilion" here. The fourth-floor "Land of wonders" painting compresses Jiangxi's iconic landscapes—Mount Lu, Sanqing Mountain, Dragon-Tiger Mountain, and Poyang Lake—into a single masterpiece. The fifth floor is the highlight for panoramic views: its central hall displays a bronze tablet inscribed with Su Dongpo's calligraphic version of "Preface to Tengwang Pavilion," while the east hall exhibits a scale model of the pavilion. Strolling the veranda offers sweeping views of the Gan River and modern skyline across the water. The top floor bears the plaque "Ninth heaven," with its west hall housing an antique-style theater flanked by replica ancient instruments like chime bells and stone chimes. Above, spiral-arranged bracket sets adorn the caisson ceiling, and between the double eaves hangs Su Dongpo's gilded "Tengwang Pavilion" plaque. After descending from the main pavilion, take time to explore the garden area: the square in front of the pavilion, the grand Song-style archway, the antique street lined with calligraphy and antique shops, and the small Suzhou-style garden Fuchang Garden with its lake reflections and bridge views—perfect for slowing your pace. To experience the poetic scene of "a solitary wild duck flying with the sunset glow, while the autumn water blends with the vast sky," an evening ascent to the pavilion is ideal. The fifth-floor corridor offers an expansive view, making it a prime spot to admire the sunset over the Gan River.Nanchang · 37.1km from Anyi
Jiangxi Provincial Museum
Jiangxi Provincial Museum is located in Xinzhou on the Lancang River in Nanchang City. It is surrounded by Fuhe River in the east, Zhongshan Bridge in the south, Lijiang River in the west and Tengwang Pavilion in the north. The environment is beautiful. The main building is made of the white porcelain three-tube excavated from Jingdezhen Yuyao in the Ming Dynasty. The museum, the revolution hall and the natural museum are all in one. The ancient ceramic art and modern architectural style are ingeniously integrated into one, solemn and elegant, unique.Nanchang · 35.9km from Anyi
Star of Nanchang Ferris Wheel
The Star of Nanchang Ferris Wheel stands on the banks of the Gan River in Honggutan, with a total height of approx. 160 m and a wheel diameter of approx. 153 m. When it was completed in 2006, such height ranked among the top in the world's Ferris wheels, and it has since remained a highly recognizable landmark of Nanchang. The wheel is equipped with 60 observation cabins, corresponding precisely to the 60-minute time scale. Each cabin can accommodate 6 to 8 people and is air-conditioned. A full rotation takes approx. 30 minutes at a gentle pace, making it effortless to ride with seniors and children. The ferris wheel takes on a different face after nightfall: thousands of LED lights on its surface illuminate to form a giant colorful clock, with hands and numbers moving in real time. It can also switch to various patterns, creating a striking sight when viewed across the river—a scene many deliberately wait to photograph. The highlight of riding the ferris wheel is the contrast between the "two banks of the river": as the cabin rises, you have the expansive Gan River beneath your feet, with rows of modern high-rises in Honggutan on one side and the old city skyline on the other. You can see the city's silhouette by day and the lights on both banks by night, each with its own charm. To capture the entire ferris wheel, you can take photos from the opposite bank of the Gan River or along the riverside promenade, framing both the river and the wheel in your shot. After comprehensive upgrades, the ship has added deluxe cabins in addition to standard viewing cabins. The travelers center below deck offers services such as rest areas, luggage storage, and guided tours, allowing you to settle your belongings before boarding the ship at ease.Nanchang · 36.1km from Anyi
The National Archaeological Site Park of Nanchang Han Dynasty Haihun Marquis
The National Archaeological Site Park of Nanchang Han Dynasty Haihun Marquis was developed based on the capital city ruins of Zijingcheng from the Western Han Dynasty Haihun Marquisate, the mausoleum of its first marquise Liu He, and the burial clusters to the west and south of the city. It represents the most well-preserved and structurally intact settlement ruins of a Han Dynasty marquise state capital discovered in China to date. Liu He, the tomb's occupant, was Emperor Wu's grandson who was deposed after merely 27 days on the throne, later becoming the Haihun marquise and moving south before being buried here. Since archaeological excavations began in 2011, over 10,000 artifacts including goldware, bronzes, jades, lacquerware, and bamboo slips have been unearthed, bringing this historically obscure "deposed Han emperor" back into public view with remarkable completeness. The park is divided into six functional zones: the ruins museum area, tomb exhibition area, Zijingcheng exhibition area, archaeological reserve area, entrance service area, and historical experience & ecological leisure area. The visitor center at the entrance adopts the shape of a jade bi disk—its white circular structure resembles a jade button when viewed from above, symbolizing "offering jade to heaven." The ruins museum takes its design inspiration from the dragon-shaped jade artifact unearthed from Liu He's tomb, appearing like a coiled dragon resting between mountains and waters. Permanent exhibitions such as "Golden Haihun," "Scholarly Haihun," and "Vermilion Lacquer Haihun" are housed here, alongside the interactive "Encountering Haihun" gallery. Among the over 1,000 displayed artifacts, gold items like cakes, horse-hoof ingots, unicorn-toe ingots, and plates are arranged in rows—their quantity and variety being exceptionally rare among excavated Han tombs. A complete set of bianzhong bells and bianqing stone chimes shares the stage with a bronze goose-fish lamp, whose curved neck holds a fish; rotating its dish adjusts brightness while smoke filters through water in the goose's belly without escaping, mirroring the ingenuity of the Changxin Palace lamp. A bronze lamp inscribed with "Nanchang" stands as a rare Han-dynasty physical testament to the city's name. Among the over 5,000 bamboo slips unearthed from the tomb of Liu He, the long-lost "Qi version of the Analects" was discovered after being missing for more than 1,800 years. The restoration achievements are showcased in the "Fragrance of Haichun" bamboo slips exhibition, where over a hundred newly restored original slips are displayed alongside Han Dynasty manuscripts like the "Book of Songs." Travelers who appreciate ancient texts and calligraphy will find it worth a closer look. The wooden back of the lacquered mirror depicting Confucius and his disciples features portraits and biographical accounts. While the original is still under restoration, the museum presents a full-scale replica with enlarged images to highlight details—another exhibit not to be missed. Beyond the museum, the Liu He Mausoleum at Guodun Mountain is another key attraction. The mausoleum complex features a trapezoidal layout, with the two main tombs of Liu He and his marquise wife sharing the same burial ground but in separate chambers at the central elevated platform. Surrounding them are auxiliary burial sites and remnants of ritual structures such as ancestral halls, resting chambers, garden walls, and gate towers. Outside the complex lies a rare chariot-and-horse burial pit seldom seen south of the Yangtze River. The Guodun Yuan ruins exhibition area built atop the mausoleum offers a panoramic view of the main tombs' wooden chamber structure from an encircling observation deck, while a 360-degree suspended screen recreates the mausoleum's construction process and Han Dynasty marquise funeral rites. The chariot pit preserves its original excavated state, with a restored quadriga carriage model showcasing the grandeur of Han nobility's travels. The park is planned around the grand heritage site, covering a vast area with its core visitable zones concentrated at the traveler center, ruins museum, and Liu He's tomb complex. The Zijingcheng city site is primarily preserved in its original state, so focus your visit on the museum and tomb area. As distances between zones are considerable, shuttle services are available—we recommend allocating half a day. The Han-style gate towers and golden imperial carriage at the entrance are popular photo spots. Throughout the park, Han cultural activities like costume parades and themed markets occasionally take place; keep an eye out while exploring the exhibitions.Nanchang · 43.1km from Anyi
Lion Peak Scenic Area
Meiling Lion Peak is a collection of Lion Peak, Panxi Lake, and Wangshi Jian as a whole. The peak is shaped like a lion, hence the name Lion Peak. Meiling Lion Peak is not high above sea level, but its steepness is no less than Huangshan, with cliffs, and strange rocks. The Feilai Peak is a magnificent place of granite and plowing landforms, and it reflects the magnificent forming process of the Meiling Mountains.Nanchang · 17.6km from Anyi
Nanchang Destroyer
The Nanchang Warship is a naval vessel named after Nanchang Hao. It is a guided missile destroyer developed by China. Since starting the service in 1982 and completing combat mission in 2016, the Nanchang Warship witnessed the development of the Chinese Navy from small to large and from weak to strong. On December 28, 1977, the Guangzhou Shipyard started the construction of the Nanchang Warship. December 22, 1979, Nanchang Warship launched. On November 15, 1982, the Nanchang Ship served in the South China Sea Fleet.Nanchang · 35.9km from Anyi
Nanchang August 1 Uprising Memorial Hall
You can learn about the history of the Nanchang Uprising in the Nanchang August 1 Uprising Memorial Hall. The museum is now divided into the new section and the old section. The old section is the former commander center of the Nanchang Uprising, and the new section is an exhibition hall built in recent years. Items on exhibition in the museum include weapons, ammunition, clothes, and binoculars that were once used during the uprising. The museum also hosts many multimedia recreations, including wax figures and sculptures, which, accompanied by sound and lights, look very realistic. The museum is located in a bustling commercial district. You can dine in one of the restaurants after visiting the museum.Nanchang · 38.2km from Anyi
Bayi Square
Nanchang Bayi Square, formerly known as People's Square, is the central square of Nanchang, a famous historical and cultural city. It is located at the intersection of the city's main streets such as Bayi Avenue, Beijing West Road, Zhongshan Road, and Ruzi Road. It is also the center of Nanchang's civic activities. The August Uprising Memorial Tower is a landmark building in the square. It is 53.6 meters high and consists of four parts: the platform base, the tower base, the tower body and the tower top. A tall flag-raising platform is set up in the south of the center of the square. On the Taipei side of the flag-raising, a tall white marble engraved with "the place where the military flag is raised" is engraved, highlighting Nanchang's special historical position in the Chinese revolution. On the square of the memorial tower, there are water curtain movies and Bayi music fountains, and sprinklers of various shapes are lined on the riverbed on both sides of the Jinshui Bridge. , "We Are Soldiers", "For Whom", "Into the New Era" and other songs are combined into a colorful audio-visual landscape. The night here is lively, and the old and young people like this place, especially when the musical fountain is turned on, it is very lively and spectacular.Nanchang · 39.5km from Anyi

The Anyi Ancient Village Cluster has several distinctive features:
1. It comprises three villages, including Luotian Village and Shuainan Village, each with its own unique characteristics.
2. It's relatively close to Nanchang, only a few dozen kilometers away. Transportation and parking are convenient.
3. This isn't a newly built cluster of ancient villages; they have a long history, and local people still live there, creating a warm and lived-in atmosphere without any artificial feel.
4. I visited during the National Day holiday, and there weren't many tourists, making for a pleasant experience.

There's a performance in the square in the evening. The building has nine floors from ground level, but the elevators are only for people over 65 and children under 3. The stairwells are stuffy, hot, and tiring. Even young people with mobility issues might find it acceptable to pay for the elevator.

Teacher Xiaoyu's explanation was excellent. She really wanted to tell us about the treasures of the Jiangxi Provincial Museum in a short time. You could feel her passion for her work. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to hear her explanation.

We arrived early, so there wasn't much of a queue. Most importantly, there weren't many people, so each person could ride a car. My son and I were lucky enough to share one, and we could enjoy the view from above. It was nice to sit by the river afterward.

I took the 8:30 bus (666), and around 10:00 AM I exchanged my ticket, made some tea, and boarded the scenic shuttle bus to begin my visit. I took the 666 bus back at 3:20 PM. I highly recommend visiting this place.

最近去爬了梅岭狮子峰，体验感超棒！虽说海拔才260米，但爬起来还挺有挑战性，像我这种平时不咋锻炼的，爬到一半气喘吁吁。从景区大门到山脚，是那种很好走的竹林台阶路，沿途的空气都是甜甜的。走到狮子峰下，有座麻绳编制的吊桥，走在上面晃来晃去，超好玩。山上有些路不太好走，不过一路上怪石嶙峋、竹林茂密，风景很不错。到了吼天台，俯瞰山下，真有种“会当凌绝顶，一览众山小”的感觉。总之，梅岭狮子峰很适合周末来放松，推荐给大家！

Take your children to experience the strength of our motherland and the hard-won nature of our lives. Although the ships are just docked, it is not easy to walk around on them, especially since the space inside is narrow and it is easy to bump into things or fall. This will give them a better understanding of the hardships faced by soldiers.
