The Cangshan Mountain in spring

The scenery of Cangshan Mountain is stunningly beautiful, with the main peak's snow scenery being majestic and spectacular, and it is one of the famous 'Four Scenes of Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon' in Dali. Here is a travel guide for Cangshan Mountain: - Cableways: - Gantong Cableway: Adjacent to the Buddhist holy site Gantong Temple, it leads directly to the scenic spot of Qingbi Stream Pool in Cangshan Mountain. Along the way, you can overlook the Cangshan Erhai and the entire Dali basin, with the mountain waterfalls and valley streams clearly visible. Attractions along the way include: Gantong Temple, Jizhao Hermitage, Thousand Buddha Temple, Qingbi Stream, Zhenlong Chessboard, and Cangshan Grand Canyon. - Xima Pool Cableway: Divided into upper, middle, and lower three stations, it is the longest cableway on Cangshan Mountain, truly 'one cableway through three sceneries', with layers of green mountains, pine and fir forests, and brilliant mountain flowers all embellished here. Attractions along the way include: Seven Dragon Maiden Pools, Xima Pool. - Zhonghe Cableway: It is the shortest and most secluded route, but also the most thrilling and exciting, with an open cable car, feeling the forest sea and mountain wind along the way. Attractions along the way include: Peach Stream, Zhonghe Temple, Longan Cave, Phoenix Eye Cave, Seven Dragon Maiden Pools. - Jade Belt Cloud Trail: At the end of summer and beginning of autumn each year, the water vapor condensed from Erhai Lake rises along Cangshan Mountain and meets the cold air descending from the top of Cangshan Mountain, forming a slender cloud at the mountainside, called 'Jade Belt Cloud'. The north-south continuous hiking trail on the waist of Cangshan Mountain is also known as 'Jade Belt Cloud Trail'. Attractions along the way include: Qingbi Stream, Seven Dragon Maiden Pools, Phoenix Eye Cave, Zhonghe Temple, Biyu Pool, Huanglong Cave. Due to the robustness of Cangshan Mountain and the complexity of the mountain roads, it is advised not to deviate from the Jade Belt Road when touring, otherwise, it is very easy to get lost if you stray into the deep mountains. Also, as the altitude of Cangshan Mountain is high and the temperature is low in the morning and evening, it is recommended to bring cold-weather clothing when going up the mountain.
