    天隐.天隐.

    Ye Sanpo is really fun! The mountains and clear waters are beautiful, the air is super good, and it is super comfortable to escape the summer heat in summer. The canyon of Bailixia is super shocking, although the rafting of the Ma River is super exciting, and the bamboo rafting is also very pleasant. The scenic spot is quite big, and it is not enough to play for a day. It is recommended to stay for one night and go shopping slowly. It is a bit crowded on holidays, and you can avoid the queue early. The overall experience is great, suitable for the whole family or friends to play together, come back next time!

    The scenery is truly beautiful, especially the Lotus Garden, where many lotus species are new to me. The garden also houses black swans, peacocks, and goats. The boats to this entrance are operated by Beijing Public Transport, while the East Pier is operated by Xiongxian County. The Ctrip price is the same as buying a ticket in person, and there are more routes to choose from at the scenic area entrance. I recommend visiting the Lotus Garden and the Cultural Garden, home to Gazi Village, rather than the Folk Customs Garden, which is full of acrobatic performances.
