Things to do in Laishui

Overall, it was quite impressive! A really great experience! The service was just a bit lacking! Haha! Still, it was alright! The scenery was beautiful! A masterpiece of nature! Authentic.

I visited Bailixia during the National Day holiday, and it felt completely different from summer. We left Beijing in the morning and arrived in about two hours. I recommend not sleeping in; if you arrive around 7 am, there's still parking available, but by 9 or 10 am, the cars are lined up outside. The canyon in October already had a touch of autumn; the mountains were a mix of yellow and red, with steep, rocky cliffs on either side, making for beautiful photos from every angle. The key was the coolness. While the sun was blazing outside, a gentle breeze once you entered the valley was incredibly refreshing. It got a bit chilly after walking for a while, so bringing a light jacket was definitely a good idea. We entered through Haitangyu and exited through Shixuanxia. There were streams along the way, but the stone paths were a bit slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. The narrowest part of Yixiantian (One Line Sky) requires you to squeeze sideways to get through; it gets crowded during the National Day holiday, so don't stand there endlessly if you want to take photos. The Heavenly Ladder steps are quite strenuous, so I took the cable car up (50 yuan one way), which saved me the effort. There's a high-altitude bicycle show at the summit in the afternoon; if you happen to catch it, just take a quick look—it's quite thrilling. A leisurely stroll through the entire area takes three or four hours without getting tired. Things tend to be more expensive during holidays, so bring your own water and snacks. Anyway, if you're looking for a place that's not too sunny during the National Day holiday, where you can stroll around and enjoy autumn scenery, Bailixia is a good option, but you should go early.

A unique journey blending natural wonders, geological science, and the charm of mountains and rivers I. First Impressions: A Natural Secret Hidden Deep in the Mountains II. Cave Wonders: A "Time Tunnel" of Geological Evolution Stalactite Landscapes: Such as "Fish Scale Waterfall," "Sky Pillar," and "Lotus Pond," their lifelike shapes inspire awe at the wonders of nature. Especially some of the still-growing stalactites, with water droplets slowly falling, seem to allow one to hear the sound of time flowing by. Underground River: Traveling by small boat through the dark waterways, the crystal-clear water and the boatman's gentle touch of the bamboo pole create a sense of adventure amidst the swaying light and shadows. It is said that the cave's spring water maintains a constant temperature year-round, never freezing in winter and remaining cool and pleasant in summer. Fish Valley Spring Wonder: The most magical feature of the cave is the "Fish Valley Spring"—around the time of Grain Rain each year, a large number of live fish (often called "multi-scaled shovel-jawed fish") gush forth from the spring. This natural phenomenon remains unsolved and is known as a "world wonder spring." Although not always visible, the information plaques and legends at the spring still evoke a sense of wonder. III. Combining Education and Fun The scenic area pays attention to lighting design and guided tours: Lighting Effects: While some areas are slightly overly bright, the overall effect highlights the layered texture of the cave, making it ideal for taking photos. Geological Education: Along the way, there are illustrated explanations of the geological formation process, perfect for children to learn while playing and understand the mysteries of karst landforms. Interactive Experiences: Some sections require bending over or climbing narrow ladders, increasing the fun of exploration (but the elderly or those with mobility issues should be careful). IV. Surrounding Attractions: The Landscape of Yesanpo A visit to Yugu Cave itself takes about 1-2 hours. It is recommended to combine it with nearby attractions: Juma River Rafting/Bamboo Rafting: After exiting the cave, you can play in the Juma River and experience the gentle beauty of the mountains and rivers rarely seen in northern China. Bailixia Scenic Area: The core attraction of Yesanpo, with its deep canyons and cascading waterfalls, suitable for hiking enthusiasts.

It rained when I went to Qingquan Mountain Scenic Area in Yesanpo, but I didn't expect the foggy scenery on rainy days to be so beautiful. Yesanpo is indeed worthy of its reputation, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and a high cost-effectiveness. It is worth praising that nucleic acid can be done for free at the ticket gate of Qingquan Mountain Scenic Area, which is really convenient. On rainy days, I didn't go back. I stayed at Qingquan Mountain Hotel at night. The scenic area hotel is very close to the scenic area, which can be regarded as a combination of food, accommodation and entertainment. In two sentences, convenience and quality!

Yunxi Valley in Yesanpo truly exceeded my expectations! The canyon is serene and tranquil, the streams are crystal clear, and the scenery is breathtaking. The air is fresh and clean—a natural oxygen bar that feels wonderful. The popular Buddha's Hand Statue and Sky Mirror spots are perfect for photos. The mountain rafting and cave rafting are thrilling and fun, yet relaxing and easy to enjoy, suitable for both the elderly and children. The scenic area has a well-planned route, friendly staff, and excellent value for money. It's ideal for trips around the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, family trips, and summer getaways. Beautiful scenery, comprehensive activities, and a fantastic experience—highly recommended!

Away from the crowds, stroll along quiet mountain paths, listen to melodious birdsong, drink from the cool, ancient spring, and climb to the summit, where clouds and mist swirl—it's beautiful! Free from commercial noise, even with my less-than-ideal stamina, I persevered and made it to the top. Since the climb is quite long, I recommend bringing your own food if you're not physically fit. The mountain boasts a rich variety of plants, so you can look up plant names and characteristics with your children as you walk. It's not tiring and is quite fun. I wouldn't recommend this trip for elderly people with mobility issues, as some sections have over 200 steps. The summit is truly beautiful.

It's fun, you can

A true feeling of harmony and peace at the inner court. Everything is extraordinary.

1. You must go early to play mountain rafting. You will definitely not have to queue for a long time if you go before 8 o'clock. We arrived at the scenic spot at 7:30 and found local people who helped us queue up to buy tickets. They also found hotels. We played all the tickets at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. 2. If there are too many people from 9:30 am to 5 pm, there will be a lot of people. Tickets may be stopped in the morning due to the large number of people. Please tell me the strategy of playing. 1. You must play mountain rafting once. Bring slippers. Wear black, white, red or plaid clothes as much as possible. It is not embarrassing to get wet when floating down. You can also wear raincoats. You can buy one for 20 yuan on the rafting. You will get wet. 2. Among the rowing, I like bamboo rafting the most. It is very interesting. You can paddle by yourself and stop on the water. You can also put your feet in the water and feel very cool. You can also play speedboat. Rowing is also OK. You are free to choose. The scenery is really beautiful and surrounded by mountains and water.

We stayed at the Universal Studios Grand Hotel again, taking a relaxed approach, not insisting on checking off all the attractions, and just resting at the hotel when we got tired, which gave us a lot of freedom. Most of the staff were easygoing and down-to-earth, especially the staff at Kung Fu Panda Land of Awesomeness, who were particularly gentle and patient with children, making for a great experience. Unfortunately, some staff at the Minions area were a bit rude and aggressive, which slightly ruined the atmosphere. Overall, the park's scenes are highly realistic, and taking your time exploring makes for a wonderful trip.
