Puzhehei Lake, traditional boat trip, Qinglong Mountain panorama, karst caves, lotus wetlands and nearby ethnic villages.
No. Lotus is seasonal, but the karst peaks, lakes, caves and village landscapes remain the main reasons to visit.

Yes. Rail makes it a practical extension, with private transfers arranged between the station, villages and scenic areas.
