Summer getaway at Xianyu Tun! Look up to Zhangjiajie, look down to Jiuzhaigou🏞️ Glass plank road + cable car to explore Guizhou's Little Jiuzhaigou
✨Guizhou's secret paradise! Xianyu Tun is amazing
Zhangjiajie's peak forest + Jiuzhaigou's clear waters = Xianyu Tun! A natural air-conditioned room at 19°C🍃
📍Location navigation
Xianyu Tun Scenic Area, Dafang County (4 hours self-drive from Luzhou / bus to county town then direct shuttle to the scenic area)
🚌 Transportation tips
Tour bus station → Xianyu Peak → Glass plank road → Cable car down the mountain (counterclockwise route is the easiest)
🔥 Must-try three highlights
1️⃣ Hanging glass plank road
A transparent viewing platform at 1300 meters altitude! Below is the primeval forest (not recommended for those afraid of heights)
📸 Photo spot: The corner of the plank road offers a full view of Xianyu Peak
2️⃣ Couple Trees + Support Stone
A thousand-year-old tree shaped like a heart💗 Next to it, rub the Support Stone three times for health (local superstition)
3️⃣ High-altitude cableway
15 minutes crossing the canyon! Riding the cable car in midsummer feels like entering a green refrigerator❄️
🍜 Mountain wild delicacies
Must order at the farmhouse restaurant at the scenic area entrance:
• Folded ear root stir-fried with cured meat (Guizhou's unique flavor)
• Sour soup fish (the aroma of litsea cubeba oil is intoxicating)
⚠️ Pitfall prevention guide
• Bring a light jacket and non-slip shoes during the rainy season in August
• Don't miss the last tour bus at 17:00
• Drones must be reported in advance (many no-fly zones)
