Fuxin Haitang Mountain Opening Chapter

After returning to Goubangzi, I wanted to go to the next stop, Dalu Flower Scenic Area, but the driver told me that the shuttle bus to Dalu Flower was no longer running, so it was useless to go to Beizhen. I had to give up on Dalu Flower Scenic Area and head straight to Haitang Mountain. 🙇 . The ticket from Goubangzi Bus Station to Fuxin costs CNY 31. After buying the ticket, I found out that I should get off at Daban Town, which is closer to Haitang Mountain. Going to Fuxin would be a detour. So I went to the ticket office to ask for a ticket to Daban. The staff said it was CNY 27, CNY 4 cheaper than the ticket to Fuxin, but it was non-refundable because the service fee was CNY 7–8. 😓 . This reminded me of the time when I was at Tang County Bus Station in Hebei Province, and I wanted to go to Da Mao Mountain. I had already torn the ticket and got on the bus, but the driver told me that Da Mao Mountain was not allowed. They refunded me without any service fee. But here, the service fee is CNY 7–8. I don't understand why there is such a big difference in the same situation in different places. 😓 . After arriving at Daban Town, I couldn't find a place to stay, so I had to keep walking. I asked someone on the way and found out that I had to keep walking for a long time before I could find a place to stay. Finally, I found a place to stay in the town ahead (according to the owner, there is only one place to stay in the three towns around here). 😓 . I found this Haitang Mountain gate on my way, but it is not the mountain gate, just a check-in point. There is no road behind it. 😓 . Fortunately, the only accommodation nearby is not expensive. At first, it was CNY 60. I said I walked from Daban Town, and the owner said it was CNY 50. 🙇 . After eating something here, I went to the supermarket to buy something to eat for tomorrow's climb. I also met a cycling uncle here. There should be only two of us in this store. According to the owner, the reason why there are few accommodations here is that it is not profitable, which means there is little traffic. After all, this mountain is unpopular. 😓 . The next morning, the cycling uncle got up at 4:00 am and rode to Beipiao Dahei Mountain. I was going to go there in a few days, but now I was going to Haitang Mountain. I left at 5:00 am and walked 2–3 km back to Daban Town to the Haitang Mountain sign. From here, I had to walk about 2 km to reach Haitang Mountain Scenic Area. I saw this big stone tablet from a distance. I could check in at this Haitang Mountain Welcome Stone Tablet outside the scenic area. 😁 . After checking in at the horizontal stone tablet, I found a vertical Haitang Mountain stone tablet in front of me. I might as well check in at both. 😁 . In front of me is the mountain gate of Haitang Mountain, which is also a beautiful architectural landscape. The color of the wall is eye-catching. If you look closely, you can see the words "Haitang Mountain Pu'an Temple" on it. 🧐 . The ticket for Haitang Mountain is CNY 50. You can enter when the park opens. . After entering, I saw a stone tablet with the words "Haitang Mountain" on it. It seems that stone tablets are indispensable here. But I am not tired of it at all, only happy. I will not miss any scenery. 🤷‍♂️
