Shuǐmò Tīng Xī Scenic Area is located 35 kilometers south of the Xuān-Jīng Highway. Accessible via a mountainous road branching off from the highway, it is a secluded attraction with few visitors. The entire scenic area is a valley, primarily featuring pristine natural landscapes with streams and bamboo forests accompanying the walking paths. Waterfalls are visible from time to time, and there are recreational facilities such as rafting and paragliding, making it an ideal spot for weekend leisure.
The scenic area offers a 4.2-kilometer walking route, almost without any climbs, making it easily accessible for the elderly. You can take a sightseeing vehicle to the deepest part for a one-way fare of 10 yuan, then walk back out, enjoying the beautiful scenery of mountains and waters. If you’re lucky, you might spot salamanders in the streams. For thrill-seekers, the ‘First Flight of Nanshan’ paragliding experience, hanging from a zip-line, is available for a reference price of 60 yuan. The ‘First Drift of Nanshan’ rafting is seasonal and costs a reference price of 100 yuan. Local farmhouses within the scenic area offer food and accommodation, where you can taste local delicacies such as native chicken, although the prices for meals are on the higher side. Given the pleasant surroundings, it is recommended to stay for two days if time permits. Breathe in the fresh air in the morning and enjoy ‘Tīng Xī Lán Xiāng’ tea, brewed with Nanshan spring water, for a comfortable stay.
