    Gaoyiling is located in Zhangzhou City, a scenic spot with Danxia landforms. The scenic spot opens at 8:00 in the morning, and is not allowed to enter the park at 17:10 in the afternoon. You will leave the park before dark. There are no lights on the mountain. In summer, it usually starts dark at 19:30. From the south gate, go to the right iron cable bridge, take Stonehenge, climb the ladder, hang the plank road, Longji Station, Juzhu Lake, and finally return to the south gate. It took 2 hours to walk the small loop of Gaoyiling. There is no dragon back, because it is too tired. If you go, it is estimated to take an extra hour or two. The scenery of Gaoyiling is really amazing, the unique Danxia landform, and the scenery at every angle is different. Although some of the suspended plank road is a glass plank road, it will not be too scary. Brave people can also experience cliff swings, cliff climbing (Feilada) and high-altitude fly ropes on the mountain. You must do a good job of sun protection when entering the scenic spot, and there are not many shaded places on the mountain. There is a Western-style fast food restaurant inside the entrance of the scenic spot, there is a Chinese restaurant attached to the hotel outside, and there is also a service station on the mountain. Transportation: There are buses in Zhangzhou City to the intersection of the scenic spot, but there are not many trains. It is more convenient to take a taxi, but you have to be a little patient for the return trip.

    The scenery is beautiful, but it depends on the weather. It feels like this area is foggy most of the time. It is worth a visit. Some places are crowded with tourists. It is recommended to go during the off-season to avoid the crowds. The number of animals is less than expected. There are also more people skiing on the grass, so you need to wait for a while.
