Xianning·Jinguishan | A beauty just like the Xian Dao Lake

Xianning Chongyang hides a secret beautiful spot unknown to many—Jinguishan, also known as Guancaishan, named for its shape resembling a chest, symbolizing promotion and wealth. The main peak of Guancaishan is 482.5 meters above sea level, connected to Ma'anshan in the northeast, and surrounded by water on the north, west, and south sides. Ancient people said: 'The land of the Son of Heaven has eighteen caves,' and Coffin Mountain is naturally a feng shui treasure. There are twenty-four small mountains around, and local legends say they represent the twenty-four acts of filial piety. Below the mountain is the Qingshan Reservoir, said to be a national first-class drinking water source. Jinguishan resembles the Thousand Island Lake of Huangshi, but it is more niche here. Not many people visit on weekends, and it is currently free of charge. 🌟 Hiking Play 1⃣️ Lazy Easy Version (5 minutes to reach) You can drive according to the navigation directly to the parking lot at the entrance of the farmhouse at the foot of the mountain. After entering through the main gate, it takes about 5 minutes to climb the stairs to reach the first red flag on the mountain (you can already see the entire lake view from here) which is very photogenic. Friends who like to take photos can return after reaching this point, as the view above is not as good for photos. 2⃣️ Full Hiking Version (about 1h to reach) After reaching the first red flag, continue upwards, with stairs and fences on the left, and a wild path on the right. Climbing up for about 1 hour will take you to the second red flag at the top of the mountain. The scenery along the way is also nice, and you can watch a sunset on the way down. Suitable for friends who like hiking. 🎫 Ticket: Free 🌟 Location: Xianning·Jinguishan (also known as Guancaishan) 🚘 Self-driving: Navigate to 'Xianning City Chongyang County Jinguishan', 2 hours drive from Wuhan ⚠️ Advice: It is not recommended to go on rainy days, as the last section of the dirt road is a bit steep and slippery when wet.
