Luanchuan is more than just Laojun Mountain

My four days in Luanchuan felt like slowly stepping into a long poem. Even days after leaving Luanchuan, the humidity of the mountain breeze, the sound of the streams, and the faint scent of grass and trees in the air still linger in my heart. Before going, like everyone else, I only wanted to experience the breathtaking beauty of Laojun Mountain. But as the car wound its way up the mountain, leaving the city behind, I realized that this journey offered far more than just a sea of ​​clouds and a golden summit. 🌟 Highlights at a Glance More than just hiking: Explore the "First Cave in Northern China," Jiguan Cave, and discover geological wonders dating back millions of years. Cultural Immersion: Experience intangible cultural heritage such as indigo dyeing and woodworking, feeling the modern charm of traditional culture. Immortal Experience: Practice Baduanjin exercises and use cymbals for therapeutic purposes in the morning on this sacred mountain; in the afternoon, row a boat through the bamboo forest listening to music, slowing down your pace. Adorable Pet Attack: See the giant panda "Lingyan" at the Bamboo Forest Wildlife Park and even feed the tigers from your car! A Culinary Feast: From a Mountain-Style Nourishing Feast to a Special Tofu Feast, savor the authentic "Luanchuan Flavor" My Favorites ⬇️ 👏 After traversing the "Underground Wonderland" of Jiguan Cave, be sure to experience the true "Nine-Steamed and Nine-Dried Immortal's Leftovers," then stay at the Yihe Home Dyeing Culture B&B and create your own indigo dyeing piece. 👏 At Luanzhou Ferry, glide across the water on a boat, listening to the boat girls sing clear and melodious tunes. If you happen to be there during a bonfire party, dance with friends from all over the country! 👏 At Laojun Mountain Flower Fairy Palace, awaken your body with a morning Taoist Eight-Section Brocade exercise. The soothing sound of cymbals helps relax deep-seated stress, allowing you to experience the tranquility of oneness with nature. 👏 At the Town Temple - Shanmu She, experience intangible cultural heritage woodworking, crafting a warm and inviting small object amidst wood shavings and the aroma of wood. 👏The ​​Luanchuan Tofu Feast is an unmissable local delicacy!👏 The trip's final destination is the adorable animals! Take a sightseeing bus through the predator enclosure, watch Siberian tigers leisurely strolling around, and the most thrilling part is being able to feed them from inside the vehicle! ❤️This trip completely changed my impression of Luanchuan as just "one mountain." Its magic lies in the fusion of mountains, water, and culture, and in the rare "slow life" atmosphere amidst the fast-paced journey. If you're also looking for a place where you can relax both body and mind, come to Luanchuan, and experience it slowly!
