About Wanfo Mountain
Named formations such as the Natural Magpie Bridge and Turtle Foraging provide focal points for reading the rock shapes. The wider protected landscape contains several sectors, so a ticket to one visitor area should not be assumed to open every valley or cave. Follow a currently designated circuit and keep the mountain outing separate from visits to Tongdao’s Dong villages.
What to look for
- The wooded Danxia hills and the gaps between their rounded forms.
- The Natural Magpie Bridge and other named formations on the open visitor route.
