Aside from the rainbow arc near Xingshi Bridge, you can also explore nearby attractions in Xizhi, including the maple-viewing hidden gem “Gongbei Temple,” Xinsan Dream Lake, and Xinsan Hiking Trail. Gongbei Temple is a renowned century-old temple, where its architecture and surroundings blend traditional Chinese design with the historic lanterns from Japan’s Nogi Shrine. In winter, when the maple leaves turn red, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and the ancient bridges and temples.
