Jiangxi in Depth

The signature — temples, mist, and Taoist sacred peaks.

Eight days across four UNESCO landscapes. The Taoist heart of China — Longhu's red cliffs, Sanqingshan's granite gods — woven into the literary, ceramic and Buddhist threads of the Essential.

Eight days lets us trace four threads — literary, ceramic, Buddhist, Taoist — without rushing any one of them. The Taoist heart of Jiangxi reveals itself slowly: bamboo on a red-cliff river, a priest's morning chant, the stone goddess watching from her peak.

Highlights

The signature — temples, mist, and Taoist sacred peaks.

  • ·

    Donglin Temple's morning chant — the bell sounds three times before five

  • ·
