01. Unplanned surprise

Returning to China early and taking a long National Day holiday made me suddenly feel so happy. After a busy day at work, I embarked on my return journey. Wuhan high-speed rail.

Returning to my beloved hometown from Yeka, I felt an inexplicable happiness. No matter where I am, people are eager to go home. My brother and my little niece picked me up at the high-speed rail station. That warm hug made me happy. I am very happy. I have watched her grow up from a young age, becoming more and more cute and sensible. I like to be with my children and spend more time with them. The world of my children is always pure and happy. I also wish her to grow up safely and happily.

When working abroad, it is often said that the place of peace of mind is my home, but the real home is still where my parents are, accompanied by my family, and where there is love and warmth.

02. Set off for Wugong Mountain

During the National Day holiday, I usually choose to stay at home with my family. Since I go home early, I can travel off-peak. Let’s discuss a self-driving trip. Where to go? Woolen cloth? After some discussion, we decided to go to Wugong Mountain. It is said that the sunset there is beautiful, the sunrise there is also beautiful, there are alpine meadows, and endless reed swamps...

"Traveling to Wugong Mountain" by Xu Xiake of the Ming Dynasty

Thousands of jagged peaks and jade hairpins, five ridges comparable to Wugong Mountain.

Looking at the sun, the scenery is like gold being smelted, and tourists are walking among colorful clouds.

49-year-old Xu Xiake traveled in Jiangxi for two and a half months, starting from Yushan and ending at Wugong Mountain, across the central part of Jiangxi. He spent 10 days in Wugong Mountain and wrote more than 6,900 words. The travel notes were collected by his descendants in "Xu Xiake's Travels·Jiangyou Travels". They are a painstaking work and provide precious first-hand information for future generations to understand Wugong Mountain more than 300 years ago.

Wugong Mountain is a holy place for outdoor hiking. You can experience pure hiking without too many commercial elements. The wonders, weirdness, and extraordinary views of the world often lie in the dangerous distances, and you can only use your feet. Only after measuring Wugong Mountain can you understand the artistic conception of "walking among colorful clouds" in Xu Xiake's eyes.

Wugong Mountain is located in the west of Jiangxi, spanning Anfu County of Ji'an City, Luxi County of Pingxiang City, and Yuanzhou District of Yichun City. In history, Wugong Mountain was once known as the three famous mountains in Jiangnan along with Hengshan and Lushan. , was dubbed "Hengshou Luwei Kung Fu".

Wugong Mountain, which was raised in a boudoir, has gradually become one of the favorites of mountaineering enthusiasts and hiking and camping. Along the way, there are lush flowers and leaves, gurgling water, colorful tents on the alpine meadows and greenery everywhere. When you climb up to the Golden Summit, the highest peak of Wugong Mountain, you will feel like you are in a fairyland with the rolling sea of ??clouds and the magnificent sunrise.

It takes about six hours to drive from Wuhan to Wugong Mountain. We arrived at the foot of the mountain, took the ropeway to Zhongan, and prepared to hike to the Golden Summit.

It is definitely a wise move to buy a bamboo walking stick at the foot of the mountain, it will save our energy.

This trip coincided with China’s 70th anniversary celebration, and there was a festive atmosphere everywhere. We also climbed the mountain with small red flags to see if the little girl was in good spirits. Wugong Mountain is also a camping site A great place for hiking.

Someone once described Wugong Mountain this way: "If you love someone, take her to Wugong Mountain. The ethereal and fresh scenery like a fairyland will make her get lost in your arms. If you hate someone, take her to Wugong Mountain. Taking her to Wugong Mountain alone, the rolling mountain road in the clouds will make her realize what despair is."

This statement is not an exaggeration at all, because Wugong Mountain is smoky and misty. It is full of mysterious and romantic atmosphere, and it is its indescribable scenery that makes it a hiking destination in the hearts of all travel enthusiasts.

The scenery along the way is really good. We just looked at the scenery, talking and laughing as we walked~

The family traveled, and they accompanied us on the road. Everything experienced will become a beautiful memory. When facing the great rivers and mountains of the motherland and the picturesque scenery, seeing the children happy, the father will also smile brightly.

Companionship is the most affectionate farewell. No matter how busy you are at work, you must accompany your children to grow up and participate in them. Although the process of climbing is difficult, the family encourages each other and climbing is also enjoyable.

03. The unique beauty of Wugong Mountain

The difference between Wugong Mountain and other mountains is that it is covered with reeds all over the mountains and fields. The wind blows along the way, and the reeds drift in the wind.

The people on the hiking trail and the reed marsh are both a beautiful sight.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, doesn’t she look a bit like the Zixia Fairy?

During the National Day, when the summer sun is scorching, these tall reeds still bring us a little coolness. The golden reeds reflect the blue sky and white clouds, like a beautiful landscape painting.

The white clouds in the sky are changing. I said this cloud is like a wolf. The wolf is coming, run away.

In my childhood hometown, there grew many simple and green reeds, which left me with sweet memories. Now walking through the reeds all over the mountains and plains also reminds me of them. Many childhood memories.

After more than two hours of hiking, we arrived at a platform rest area. Fairy Zixia led us along the way, with amazing perseverance and awesomeness.

Lie on the fence, take beautiful photos, enjoy the scenery, and take a rest.

With the endless hiking trail, it feels like the Golden Summit is just ahead, but why haven’t we arrived yet?

Then keep walking and watching. You will reach the top of the mountain anyway.

04. Arrive at the Golden Top Tent Camp

We arrived at the top of the mountain at about three o'clock in the afternoon. When we were approaching the top of the mountain, we saw the spectacular tent camp, which was colorful and special. It looks good and seems to add many different colors to Wugong Mountain.

This is definitely another major feature of Wugong Mountain. There are neatly arranged tents at the entrance of every hotel, and there are also tents on the wooden plank road suitable for watching the sunrise and sunset.

In the festive atmosphere of the 70th anniversary of New China, the five-star red flag fluttered in the wind and the victory songs were so loud, and the tents deep in the mountains became even more charming.

Live every day like climbing a mountain, climbing slowly and persistently. At the same time, we have to appreciate the scenery passing by every moment. The joy of reaching the top of the mountain is the sense of accomplishment of achieving the goal.

05. Watching the sunset at Wugong Mountain

We booked a room at the Yunxi Inn on the top of the mountain, and also booked a tent in the sunset viewing area. After a day of climbing the mountain, we could take a good bath. Take a hot bath to rest, and occupy a vantage point in the tent area to watch the sunrise and sunset.

However, the accommodation at the top of the mountain is really expensive, 880 per night for a standard room with breakfast, and limited mountain spring water for bathing, but it is worth it to experience it.

After we settled in, we set off to the top of the mountain to watch the sunset. Facing the setting sun, the back view of the family of three felt particularly warm and happy.

When I have the opportunity in the future, I will also take my children to hike in Wugong Mountain and watch the sunrise and sunset.

Putting the sun in the palm of your hand, you are embracing the happiness and joy of the sun at this moment.

Auntie, I’m going to use my big trick to eat the sun. My brother and his family took a group of photos of eating the sun. It’s quite interesting.

The sun is about to set as I speak. Yes, the sunset is infinitely better, but it is almost dusk.

But the sunset is infinitely beautiful, so why should we feel melancholy near dusk? Just enjoy the moment.

I just want to sit quietly in the reeds and watch the sunset.

I encountered a perfect sunset. The warm glow illuminated the mountains. The psychedelic and somewhat magical colors made me particularly surprised and delighted.

The red sunset disappeared in the distant west, the last ray of afterglow disappeared in the sky, and the whole world slowly calmed down.

I heard the wind blowing through the valley, whispering softly, it was a voice from outside.

The sunset at Wugong Mountain is definitely worth having. You must go there once in your life with your loved one, it will definitely amaze each other.

06. Watch the sunrise at Wugong Mountain

Wugong Mountain is the highest peak in Jiangxi. I was lucky enough to climb to the top to watch the sunrise and see the expected sea of ??clouds. I felt extremely happy.

When you come to the human world, you must take a good look at the sun. I have seen the sunrise in many places, but the sunrise at Wugong Mountain is definitely more than just a taste.

People waiting for the sunrise~

Different time periods, different angles and positions of viewing the sun, the scenery presented is also different.

As soon as the white clouds shine, the floating clouds will open up. It seems completely inconsistent to use this description to describe the sunrise at Wugong Mountain.

Everyone who goes to climb Wugong Mountain will be amazed by its cloud grassland, sunrise and sunset, and sea of ??clouds. There are different scenery and different personalities throughout the year. Starting from May, Wugong Mountain is an unparalleled and beautiful existence in this world.

A warm and happy scene, I think she will remember this moment.

Such a dazzling moment must be witnessed with the closest person, ***.

After a while, the red sun broke through the clouds and mist, ready to emerge, and then completely appeared in people's eyes. The spectacular scenery is unavoidable.

Above the sea of ??clouds, under the sky, the meadows are looming in the churning sea of ??clouds. Only when you see it with your own eyes will you understand what is the beauty that cannot be captured by a camera, and only when you see it. Only when you climb the Golden Summit will you understand what a truly worthwhile trip is.

The wind was blowing gently, and the sun also came out. We started to go down the mountain while bathing in the sunshine. The trip to Wugong Mountain ended with our walking down the mountain. It was an unforgettable hike to watch the sunset and the sunrise. This trip was romantic and warm. I look forward to meeting you again next time.

Jiangxi Wugong Mountain, the sunset and sunrise are rare beautiful scenery. It allows you to get close to nature deeply, feel unprecedented challenges and happiness during hiking, and relax your body and mind. If you haven’t gone there yet However, you can also take a casual trip and have a chance encounter with the sunrise and sunset there. It may amaze you and make your time unforgettable.
