Suxian District: blessed land with Danxia landscape

There is not an inch of land that is not beautiful, not a single mountain that is not fantastic.

Nearly 400 years ago, Xu Xiake, a traveller in the Ming Dynasty, came to Feitian Mountain in Chenzhou City, Hunan Province, and praised this beautiful land.

At that time, Xu Xiake endorsed Suxian District, a wonderland on earth. Today, Feitian Mountain, the main venue of the 2022 Chenzhou Tourism Development Conference, also represents the cultural tourism brand of “A blessed land of Suxian with Danxia landscape”.

Danxia landscape

Chenzhou City was called "Lin Yi" in ancient times, which means literally “ a city in the forest” in Chinese. Feitian Mountain is like a dazzling touch of red among the green forests.

In the Feitian Mountain National Geopark, there are red rocks, deep ravines and scattered villages. The natural bridge shows the craftsmanship of the nature and the hanging coffin leaves unsolved mystery for the people.

The mountains, waters, forests and caves highlight the majestic, peculiar, dangerous and beautiful Feitian Mountain.

There must be lucid waters among the great mountains.

The Cuijiang River is comparable to the Lijiang River. The green water and the Danxia landscape of Feitian Mountain create a beautiful and poetic picture.

The Cuijiang River, the upper reaches of the largest tributary of the Xiangjiang River, merges with the Chenjiang River and the Dongjiang Lake.

In the early morning, the mist of the Dongjiang Lake spreads along the Cuijiang River, making Feitian Mountain shrouded in mist. The mountain is red, and the water looks like emerald. When tourists sit and watch the fog rise, they will forget to leave.

Stargazing camping sites

Many tents are erected at Fengzhengling of Qingjiang Village in Suxian District, where people enjoy roses and gaze at the stars in the sky.

At Shuangshengshu Starry Sky Campsite, you can fly kites, have a barbecue and attend music festivals, as well as enjoiy the beautiful roses covering an area of 100 mu ( about 66,666.66 square meters) of roses.

In recent years, the popularity of camping tourism has continued to rise. "RV + Camping", "Concert + Camping" and so on are ready for urban people.

Once the camping sites were scattered in the district, and later the local government made an overall plan to create campsites with different themes and styles.

There is Danxia landscape and lucid water, as well as the best place to watch the stars in Suxian District, which has a bright prospect for its cultural tourism.

How can cultural tourism in Suxian District go farther?

Suxian District is taken as the urban reception hall, the vanguard of opening up, the main position of science and education, and the new landmark of cultural tourism.

As the new landmark of cultural tourism, how to set an example? Suxian District will take advantage of its opportunity to host the 2022 Chenzhou Tourism Development Conference as well as Chenzhou\'s effort to host the second Hunan Tourism Development Conference to draw a tourism map with one park, two scenic areas and three corridors.

Feitian Mountain-Gaoyi Ridge cultural and tourism integration industrial park

If you are tired when climbing Feitian Mountain, you can rest at Gaoyi Ridge for a while. Feitian Mountain and Gaoyi Ridge are next-door neighbors and belong to the Danxia landform. The Danxia landform of Gaoyi Ridge is mostly dotted with puddles, red rocks and green water.

Feitian Mountain and Gaoyi Ridge have formed a brotherhood, driving the development of Gaoyi Ridge area with cultural tourism investment projects, so that night tours of the Cuijiang River and sightseeing trams can come into use. The two brothers have been working together to create a 5A-level scenic spot.

Tiantang Hot Spring-711 Red Cultural Tourism Scenic Area and Wugaishan Forest Summer Resort

Tiantang Hot Spring was once the health base of the Chinese women\'s volleyball team, and its geothermal resources ranks second in the country, with a constant temperature of 52 degrees Celsius. The famous scholar Yu Qiuyu praised it as "the gift of the earth". The mountain is covered by frost, snow, clouds, fog and dew all year round.

You can spend the summer in Wugai Mountain, without the need to open the air conditioner but cover a quilt. Country skiing, extreme sports, and high-end flights are also good options.

The two resorts can not only relax your body and mind, but also allow you to listen to the echoes of history and feel the power of faith.

Chenjiang Urban Cultural Tourism Consumption Corridor, Xihe Rural Ecological Tourism Corridor and Hunan Guangdong Ancient Road Red Culture Theme Corridor.

One corridor along the Chenjiang River leads to shining night views.

The Suxian Ridge Scenic Area, Yuhou Street, Changjuan Intangible Cultural Heritage Block form a cultural tourism consumption gathering area and an urban consumption advantage area, which has heated up the night economy.

One corridor along the West River leads to the pastoral scenery.

The manors on both sides of the Xihe River, such as Gangjiao, Lanwangmiao Wetland Park, Lianshan and Fengchu Legend, attract people to come for rural leisure and tourism, agricultural tourism and picking experience. The flow of visitors drive a series of industries such as fishmeal, bamboo, fruits and vegetables, making rural tourism the most beautiful scenery in rural revitalization.

Suxian is the earliest county in Chenzhou City, with a history of more than 2,000 years. It has rich cultural heritage. Ancient and modern celebrities such as Zhou Dunyi, Su Shi, Qin Guan, and Tao Zhu have left their works in Suxian. Suxian District is also the center of the Xiangnan Uprising, the birthplace of the spirit of two bombs and one satellite.

Walking into the 711 Mine and the Chen Family Mansion, the former site of the Chenxian Soviet Government, you will be overwhelmed by the power of faith.

Urban leisure, red cultural tourism, rural tourism, summer vacation, togther with such mouthwatering specialties as fish rice noodles from Qifengdu, bacon from Wugai Mountain, alpine grass fish from Liangtian and local snacks, make Suxian a place we are yearning for.
