    Nice park to hike. You can also use the bus to visits the different places. I stayed for 2 nights on the mountain. That is enough time to walk everything. If you use the bus, 1 night is fine

    The Lushan Xihai Lake Island Ecological Tourist Area is a scenic area located in Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province, China. It's known for its beautiful lakes and mountains, with a transparent, mirror-like water surface contrasting with green mountains. The area is ideal for drifting and photography. You can explore the beauty by cable car or on foot.

    [View] Liyang River Scenic Area, my scenery is very beautiful, composed of green trees and green leisure trails of the river water embankment, and couples, family walks with children and friends [interesting] You can drink coffee and chat on the side of the road in groups of three or five Qin, or you can also quail eggs [price-performance ratio]

    In high school, I studied Su Shi's "Stone Bell Mountain Record," a piece about imperial examinations. On the second day of my trip to Nanchang, I found a day trip to explore this unique mountain. The scenic area isn't large, but it's quite unique. It's where Poyang Lake and the Yangtze River meet, offering a breathtaking view of the two-faced natural landscape. There's also a cultural commemoration of Su Dongpo and the Hunan Army's battle against the Taiping Rebellion. It's well worth a visit.

    [View] Located in the hot spring town, it belongs to the Donglin Temple Jingtuyuan. It is said that the Buddha statue is higher than the Statue of Liberty. It feels very shocking. There are many people visiting. There are also many volunteers in the temple. [Interesting] Exercise to understand [Cost-effective] Tickets are free

    San Diequan is a tourist attraction that requires a lot of effort. The cable car can save you an hour and a half of round trip, but at the end of the cable car, you still need to walk up and down 1,300 steps, a total of 2,600 steps back and forth, and you need to walk back. But the waterfall of San Diequan is really amazing, and the 2,600 steps + round-trip cable car are worth it.

    Donglin Temple at the foot of Lushan Mountain is worth taking time to visit. The experience is very good. It takes at least one or two hours to stroll down. The elderly and children do not feel tired when they stroll around. If you come to play Lushan for half a day, it is recommended to visit this trip.

    This is a charming resort with many spa activities. I tried the salt therapy (buried in salt) and the fish therapy (the fish nibbled my feet), both were relaxing and enjoyable. There are many hot springs to choose from including pools of ginseng, mint, goji berry, and green tea. The room I chose also had a mini pool in it. Super cool! The resort offered a free Chinese breakfast and my room was cleaned every day. As it is summer now, there weren't many people at the resort so I had a very enjoyable stay here. Lushan is an amazing place, if you visit, then be sure to go to Mount Lu Scenic Spot. I hiked to the San-Die Waterfall one day when I was here. It was amazing to be surrounded by mountains and clouds! Afterward, you can relax at the hot springs at the resort! I will surely visit again!
