Li Bai wasn't lying! I captured it—what it truly means to "pluck stars with bare hands."

✨ When a thousand lanterns rose from my palms, I suddenly understood Li Bai's poetic madness of "reaching for the moon in the azure sky." Mist curled over blue-tiled roofs, koi fish traced golden ripples in emerald waters, and the eaves of Zhongmiao Pavilion pierced the morning haze—I was certain I'd stumbled into a parallel world of *Spirited Away*! This hidden Han-Tang paradise nestled at the northern foot of Wuyi Mountain transforms from an ink-wash wonderland by day into a neon-lit xianxia drama set by night. 📅 2-Day Essential Itinerary 📍 **Day 1: Immersion in Fairy-Tale Village** 15:00 Head straight to **Lingbao Immortal Street** upon arrival, rent Hanfu (¥50/2h)—lantern arrays and oil-paper umbrella alleys make every shot insta-worthy 17:30 Boat ride by **Zhongmiao Pavilion** (¥20), feed koi fish as sunset gilds the glazed tiles 19:00 Non-**heritage fire dance spectacle**: Flaming tigers leap, twirling fire skirts ignite the square (arrive early for seats!) 21:00 **Lantern procession**: Join hundreds carrying lanterns through the streets, release sky lanterns at Star Plaza for wishes 🌄 **Day 2: Mountain Ascension & Spiritual Quest** 8:30 **Cable car to Gexian Mountain** (round-trip ¥130)—sea of clouds engulfing peaks like Penglai paradise 10:00 Tie prayer ribbons at **Sky Mirror Terrace**, gaze at three-province border mountains 11:30 Incense offering at **Grand Gexian Temple**, slurp vegan noodles (¥15) with soul-cleansing mountain breeze 📝 **Pro Tips** 🎫 Tickets: Scenic area ¥120 + cable car ¥130 (combo saves ¥30; student discount 50% on entry) 🌙 **Night shows**: Partial cancellations every Tuesday! Weekends amp up the magic 🚌 Transport: Shangrao HSR station→shuttle bus ¥30/1.5h (hourly 7:00-18:00). Drive? Park at **P4** near entrance 🏡 Stay: **Bamboo Hidden Retreat** (panoramic bamboo views) or family-friendly **Siyuan Lodge** (playful amenities) 🍜 **Eat**: Must-try Yanshan hot noodles + *dengzhanguo* (savory cakes). **Tianyuan Restaurant** on Lingbao Street adjusts spice levels 💡 **Divine Experiences** 🌧️ Visit on drizzly days!
