Ganzhou Tongtianyan, the first grotto in Jiangnan with 10 check-ins for oxygen breathing on foot!

Tongtian Cave in Ganzhou was opened in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Northern Song Dynasty. It preserves 359 stone niches with statues from the Tang Dynasty to the Song Dynasty and has the reputation of "the first grotto in Jiangnan". Such a place with rich historical heritage is certainly not to be missed when you come to Ganzhou. But after arriving there, I found that Tongtianyan not only has cultural relics, but the local scenery is also very pleasant. You can experience the history and culture while taking a walk and breathing oxygen in one go. Although the only drawback is that it is still under renovation and some Buddhist shrines cannot be seen, the merits outweigh the flaws, and Tongtianyan is still worth a visit. 【Essence and labor-saving route】: Yangming Statue-Guanxin Rock-Wanggui Rock-Longhu Rock-Cuiwei Rock-Tongtian Rock-Putong Pagoda-Reclining Buddha-Pray to Buddha Rock-Round the inner line of the lake back to the starting point △The section from Guanxinyan to Tongtianyan is a must-see grotto and stone carving. It is very old, so it is also under repair and fenced off. It is a bit regrettable that it is impossible to take a panoramic photo. · △There should be many new buildings from Putong Pagoda to Lifoyan at the back, so there are still things worth seeing. There are Ganfo Cave and God of Wealth Temple at Lifoyan. Although they are privately run, it is OK to go and see them without spending any money. · This way of walking a circle is only more than 3 kilometers and can be completed in about 2 hours. The road signs at the back of the scenic area are not very clear. If you don’t know where you are, check the navigation more often, otherwise you may end up on the hiking route which is very far away. · It only takes a little over 3 kilometers to walk around like this, and it can be completed in about 2 hours. The road signs at the back of the scenic area are not very clear. When you don’t know where you are, look at the navigation plaque more often, otherwise you may end up on the hiking route which is very far away. · Tickets: 30r/person (half price for students/seniors/children) Navigate to: Ganzhou Tongtianyan Scenic Area Transportation: Drive or take a taxi, it takes about 20-30 minutes from downtown Ganzhou Tips: There are many mosquitoes in the mountains, so you need to use mosquito repellent; the scenic area is all slabs and paved gravel roads, don't wear Salomon, and don't ask me why my butt hurts.
