Qiandao Lake Beautiful China Resort: The resort is designed with an eastern zone for dynamic sports and a western zone for wellness retreats, featuring four key attractions: WILD WORLD Adventure Park, WILD WATER World, Forest-on-the-Lake, and a wellness resort center. At the UPUP Water Club, enjoy non-motorized water activities such as water biking, kayaking, and canoeing, along with a floating sports park. On land, explore the Wild World No. 7 Adventure Park with jungle expeditions, UTV rides, and water karting—unlocking exciting outdoor experiences across diverse landscapes.

Xiajiang Village: Recognized as one of the World’s Best Tourism Villages and a National Key Rural Tourism Village, it offers boutique homestays such as Qishe and Mailang. Visitors can explore scenic spots including the village itself, Wulangwu hiking trail, Qiandao Lake Grand Canyon, and the Intangible Cultural Heritage Back Alley. Savor local specialties such as farmhouse pork, corn cakes, and freshwater stream fish.

“The Place Where Dreams Begin” Ecological Water Show: This immersive performance blends original ecological art, folk antiphonal singing, dance, water-land music festivals, and theatrical performances. It integrates authentic rural life with modern artistic expression, using Xiajiang’s natural landscape as a stage to create a multi-sensory experience combining performance, light, and visual arts.


Hongshan Valley Scenic Area: It boasts a rare primeval forest in western Zhejiang, with negative oxygen ion concentrations in the air reaching as high as 320,000 per cubic centimeter. It is a wellness haven where you can release tension, regulate your breathing, and restore emotional balance. Stepping into Hongshan Valley Scenic Area feels like entering a paradise on earth—the invigorating fresh air envelops you, intoxicating the senses. Here, verdant mountains stretch endlessly, waterfalls cascade in every direction, and clear emerald pools dot the landscape. As you ascend the stone steps, you are accompanied by mountain streams and waterfalls at every turn, the sounds of jungle birds, babbling waters, and towering ancient trees. It is a secluded mountain-and-water retreat like no other, cut off from the outside world.

Qiandao Lake Sailing Center: The center features two main zones: a family entertainment park and a water sports base. The water sports area offers 12 cutting-edge activities, including sailing, windsurfing, wake surfing, parasailing, jet boating, powered hang gliding, electric surfboards, and flyboarding. The family park includes 15 recreational attractions such as castle-style diving slides, trampolines, rainbow slides with climbing walls, water obstacle courses, and water bicycles.

“Love of Moonlight” Light & Shadow Night Cruise: It’s China’s first immersive island-based light and shadow art project. Board a night cruise and enter a fairy-tale island shrouded in mist, like stepping into a forest of fireflies. Enjoy sights of koi swimming, poetic scenes inspired by “the moon rising over the sea,” and a charming pet park for children. Featuring 26 artworks from renowned international artists, this exhibition merges light and water into a spectacular visual experience.


Longtan Gorge Rafting: Located at the foot of Mount Jinzi Peak, this 3.6 km rafting route with a 166-meter drop is one of the fastest and most thrilling natural mountain spring rafting experiences. It combines four styles—adventure, warrior, speed, and spinning rafting—offering excitement, challenge, and unique scenery.

Qiandao Lake Botanical Garden: Situated on Qingxin Island in the central lake area, just 800 meters from the visitor center, this high-standard botanical garden integrates plant landscapes, cultural experiences, wedding photography, social media hotspots, science education, outdoor fitness, and leisure tourism. It features nearly 300 varieties of ornamental plants, including hydrangeas of various species such as macrophylla, paniculata, oakleaf, serrata, and tree hydrangeas.

    China Essence with Natural Wonders Exploration

    May 05th, 2026, Couple

    We traveled to China during 05th May to 17th May, 2026. Here goes our comment.

    Guilin & Yangshuo:

    Mr. Tom was an excellent guide in every aspect. He made every experience a great adventure and beyond. With his energy and knowledge, he adjusted the schedule with extra activities such as visiting the pandas, which made it extra special. He is good at explaining everything in a clear and succinct way, since much is guiding us, we loved our time in China and couldn’t have done it without Tom. He is also frequently offering helpful knowledge we very much appreciated. He also took great pictures of us. Mr. Kong, the driver is very courteous & flexible.

    Zhangjiajie, Furong & Fenghuang town:

    Allen is a capable and smart guide who has an optimistic and patient personality. We feel fortunate to have her. She is very good at arranging the schedule and navigating the towns’ sights in an efficient manner. We appreciate her help to negotiate with the photographer and provide us good seats and advice. The driver Mr. Lee is a safe & excellent driver who is courteous to us, other drivers and pedestrians. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in the Zhengzhou area. The hotel was excellent!

    Beijing:

    Ray Liu is a very knowledgeable and smart guide with excellent English. We learned a lot from him about Chinese history, culture, and current life. He is on time and capable. He shared with us a lot of interesting facts and information, and it was easy to talk to him because he is friendly, talkative and has fluent English. Ray knows his way around & got us everywhere, and it was nice there was a charge port in the back. He can be more courteous to bikers & pedestrians, but we got everywhere safely.

    This is the second time we plan a trip with Best Asia Tours and we love their service and attention to detail as well as their willingness to make your trip memorable and anything you want possible. Their planning is impecable and very efficient and if anything is not as you expected they will work to make sure it is. we did a 21 day itinerary for 7 including 2 grandmas back on 2018 and we just went back a couple of weeks ago with our daughter for 12 days and had an awesome time. We are already planning the next one. Zoe and Eric who had help us with the travel planning were both amazing their speed to comeback with the itineraries and changes is impressive and not matter how many times you ask them to look at changes or different hotels etc they are always willing to help with the most wonderful attitude . All the guides we had on the different cities and regions have be incredible . I can not recommend them enough. I have traveled al over the world and they are definitively on the top service of the agencies I had used.

    Classic Japan Tour, Tokyo, Mt.Fuji, Osaka, Kyoto

    Aug 2025

    Best Asia Tours did a really good job planning our itinerary in Japan. Some times we had issues coming up I think mostly related to cultural differences, but our agent was amazing and went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure we were comfortable and the trip was perfect. The hotels are centrally located, very easy to access to the city center. The guide and driver are friendly and nice. We spend a pleasant and amazing journey there.
