The morning mist in the Zen City has yet toperse, and the guide leads you into the temple museum's kettle-eared gate. Beneath the watchful gaze of the century-old grey-pltered kirin, the green stone square in front of the Huang Feihong Memorial Hall has already set up a boxing formation. The young men in red clothes take horseances like ancient banyan roots, and the coach shouts: "Hongquan heavy bridge hand, power from the earth!" You follow the fists, push palms, and sink the bridge, feeling the power of the "Gongzi Fuxi" boxing—when the palm wind splits the humid air, you suddenly feel the line of the Hongquan master Lin Shiren surging in your arms. (Reserve martial arts experience 3 days in advance)

Longevity Kilnaze, Clay Body Nirvana
At noon, the guide will take you to the Nanfeng Ancient Kiln. Five hundred years ago, the smoke from the dragon kil seeps into your breath. Watch the pottery throwing performance at the "Ancient Kiln Reflection" workshop: the pottery lady hands you a ball of Shiwan black: "Pottery is like practicing boxing, soft clay needs a strong bone!" The throwing machine spins, and your fingers sink into the wet clay, as if yesterday' Wing Chun sticky hand—slightly distracted and the clay model collapses, the master laughs "Learn from the divine banyan at the end of the kiln, root but biting the brick wall!"

The Golden Kingdom on the Cloud Steps
As the tires rounded the last bend of the ridge, I was suddenly thrust into a sea of gold - the Longsheng Terraced Fields gradually came into view. The rice waves in the terraced fields surged from the of the mountain to the clouds, and the terraced fields were stacked like the fingerprints of a giant, each curve engraved with the millennium battle between the Zhuang andao ancestors and the cliffs. With the window rolled down, the breeze mountain, mixed with the scorched fragrance of rice stalks and the coolness of the undriedew, rushed into the chest.
The Secret Silver Totem of Long Hair Village
The wooden building cluster of Huangluo Yao Village hangs on the cliff, and is the only tribe in the world where all members have a height of over 1.4 meters. When the tip of the hair touches the back of your hand, the millenn genetic code suddenly connects.

Rushing up to the Tian'tou Village at an altitude of 110 meters, the dimension of the terraced fields suddenly changes here:
Thousand-layer Sky Ladder (2nd Viewing Platform): Walking down the bluestone path, broke into the rice field maze. The rice ears hang down like a golden curtain of pearls, brushing against the arms and leaving a subtle itching touch. Some scenes of the "Rush Hour 3" by Jackie Chan were also filmed here.
Xi Shan Xiao Yue (1st Viewing Platform): Climbing to the highest point the entire valley unfolds underfoot like a flowing geometric poem.

Morning Light Exploration·Waking Up of the Ancient Street
Following the guide's footsteps into the gatehouse engraved with the three characters "Gu Ping", it seems as if you are pushing open the door of time and space. The cobblestone road, not yet dissipated by the morning mist, shmers with a faint light, and the sweet fragrance of steamed rice cakes floats from the old houses on both sides. The clay jars of the soy sauce workshop are lined up along alley, and the silversmiths knock on the Miao ornaments, making a jingling sound. Buy a cup of passion fruit juice in a bamboo cup around it and the sour and cool taste instantly awakens the taste buds.

Day 7
Mingshi Village -- Yulian Dam -- Mingshi Farm -- Detian Waterfall

At dawn, step into the bluestone alleys of Mingshi Village. Morning mist, like a milky white silk ribbon, entines the karst peaks, and the eaves of Zhuang wooden houses drip with night dew, waking up the sleeping rice paddies. Experience the tranquility and harmony of Chinese countryside in the early morning, interacting with nature.
Ten minutes by bike along the river, and the roar of the Yulian Dam is already faintly audible Layered dams cut the Mingshi River into thousands of sparkling scales, and the water jumps and reflects the colors of the rainbow between the stone steps. Treading into the beach with bare feet, the cool river water overflows the ankles, and in the reflection, you see yourself dancing with the karst peaks – this is the "mir theater" privately owned by National Geographic photographers! Lift your camera instantly, and across the river, a shepherd drives ducks into the water, duck feet break the jade- river surface, and golden rice waves fly with white feathers. Jump on the artificial bamboo raft, and the green silk of the Mingshi River ripples at the tip of pole. It is actually possible to see the thatched cottage left by the shooting of "The Joy of All Things" – under the broken reed eaves, the creepers have swallowed the prop swords and knives, and nature is quietly regaining the narrative right. When the roar resonates with the chest cavity, you know that the Detian Water is near! Crossing the jungle trail, the water mist stings the face like ice needles – the scene suddenly opens up: the Guichun River turns into liquid jade falls from a 70-meter high cliff, and the three-level waterfall bites the rocks like a white dragon. Take advantage of the time before the Guichun River isamed by the dyke, and before the coffee fragrance next to the marker can still float across the border, to touch this living geographical seam – there are no scenic area boundaries, only the waterfall declares with a roar: the mountains and rivers are originally boundless.

Day 8
Tongling Grand Canyon - Gulong Mountain Dark River Rafting

Beyond the colossal bronze gate of Tongling Canyon, a chill like a spectral hand throttles the throat. "Forward lies the world ofals, and backward, the underworld."
The moment one ventures into the canyon of the Ancient Dragon Mountain, modern civilization is swallowed by layers of rock. Riding inflatable boat into the mouth of an underground river, the headlamp pierces the darkness, revealing stalactites like a hanging array of spears.
Trillions of droplets cascade from the vaulted ceiling, exploding into different octaves along the gunwale—"Ding" is the growth of stalagmites, "Dong" rushing of the dark river, "Tat" the blind fish gnawing at the bones of cave salamanders.
Before the underground river is tamed bylights, before the blind shrimp still weave star charts in the darkness, go to witness this geological practice that has lasted 250 million years—there are no tourists here only time-space smugglers who have submitted their names to the core of the Earth.

Day 9
Chongzuo--(High-speed Rail)--Guangzhou--Chimelong in Guangzhou

After arriving in Guangzhou and checking in the luggage, I headed to the last destination - the Chimelong Safari World in Guangzhou, one the world's largest and most diverse zoos. Riding the little train inside the park through the grasslands and zebras, brushing shoulders with giraffes, flying birds on the cable car, and even touching the conservation miracles of the national treasures giant pandas and koalas, this place is not only a natural classroom for family education but a vivid interpretation of the concept of coexistence between humans and nature. As the visitors say: "It turns 'wildness' into tangible poetry."
