The flight arrived at Jiujiang Lushan Airport at noon on the morning of May Day. It was still quite far, so we stayed at Jiujiang Bohe Cuizhu Villa Hotel at the foot of Lushan Mountain. The hotel is very beautiful, the building is hidden in the woods, surrounded by green bamboo, and you can see the Lushan Cableway from the terrace of the room🚡. After a brief rest in the afternoon, I went to Donglin Temple. I had no feelings and no comments. On the morning of the 2nd, I went out before 8 o'clock. I was very close to the Lushan Cableway and there were not many people. I took the East Line sightseeing bus directly to Hanpokou to see the magnificent Lushan Mountain. I didn't see the sea of ​​clouds, but the view was wide and the weather was very good. I could see very far. When we returned to the sightseeing bus station, it was instantly crowded with people queuing up to take the bus. They were all going to Sandiequan and Wulao Peak. There were very few people returning to Meilu Villa. It was very difficult to follow the crowd into Meilu Villa, and then walk out because there were too many people. Walk along the road to Guling Street, pass by Lushan Library, sit in the quiet reading room for a while, read a book, a rare and pleasant moment [Joyful] start the leisure mode of Lushan [Cute][Love] Guling Street Post Office bought postcards and refrigerator magnets. Looking out from the railing of the street garden in Guling Town, you can see villas and churches of various styles, built in an orderly manner against the mountain, which is very harmonious. Sit by the window and enjoy the beautiful view while eating. The record wall of the [Cute] restaurant is very unique. After dinner, we continued strolling and walked downhill to Ruqin Lake. The sidewalks along this road were very beautiful and the small landscapes were nice. I drank a cup of coffee by the Ruqin Lake, with a light breeze blowing, and then it was over. While everyone was still having fun, I took the cable car down the mountain, and the trip to Lushan Mountain ended perfectly [Yeah][Yeah][Yeah] For other beautiful views of Lushan Mountain, see the photos everyone posted [Grin] For the remaining two days, there was a traffic jam everywhere, so we just drank tea and coffee on the terrace, chatted, and looked at the mountains [Love][Cute]

Hey everyone! I'm back from the "fairyland" of Mount Lushan with wind-blown hair 🌪️! As I was sorting through my photos, I kept thinking, "This mountain climb was worth it, but I want the whole world to know about some of the pitfalls!" 📸 No fluff today, just the honest truth from my own experience. If you're planning a trip, grab a seat 📝, read this, and avoid unnecessary detours! 🌧️ [Must-Read Before You Go: Weather and Gear are Key] Important! Mount Lushan is a "mountain city shrouded in mist," and the weather forecast here is like a blind box 🎲! Remember to bring the following before you go: ✅ Waterproof windbreaker (it can rain at any time, and an umbrella can't withstand the strong winds 💨) ✅ Comfortable hiking shoes 👟 (the steps at Sandie Spring are so steep you'll question your life choices, and your white shoes will turn into "battle-worn" versions) ✅ Light jacket 🧥 (the temperature difference between day and night on the mountain is huge; you'll be freezing when watching the sunset in the evening) ❌ Don't carry a heavy bag! The sightseeing bus in the scenic area stops whenever you want, but it's best to travel light when hiking. 🌿 [Must-See Attractions: Fill Your Social Media Feed] 1. Lake Lulin 🌊: It's absolutely stunning in the morning! The lake is covered in a thin mist, like a fairyland. There's a wooden boardwalk along the lake, perfect for taking "atmospheric" photos 📸 (remember to bring some breadcrumbs; the black swans in the lake will chase you 🦢). 2. Sandie Spring Waterfall 🌊: "You haven't seen Mount Lushan if you haven't seen Sandie Spring" is no joke! The three-tiered waterfall cascades into the deep pool, and the mist on your face is super refreshing. But it's easy to go down and hard to go up, so remember to stretch your thigh muscles after climbing 💪 (psst: if you're not in good shape, you can buy a round-trip cable car ticket to save 80% of your energy! 🚡) 3. Guling Town 🌙: A "hidden gem" town on the mountain! It feels amazing to stroll around in the evening. The streetlights make it look like a fairy tale town ✨, and there are all kinds of artsy shops and cafes ☕. When you're tired, buy a Mount Lushan potato 🥔 and eat it as you walk around. It's so relaxing you won't want to leave! 🍽️ [Food Recommendations: Order Local Dishes Without Regret] ✔️ Mount Lushan Potatoes 🥔: A must-buy from street food stalls! Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, sprinkled with chili powder and scallions. It's so good you'll want to lick your fingers! ✔️ Fried Eggs with Rock Tripe 🥚: Rock tripe is a Mount Lushan specialty. It tastes like wood ear but is crisper. It's delicious when stir-fried with eggs. ✔️ Jar Stew 🥣: Any restaurant makes it well. A hot bowl of stew after a hike will warm you up. ❌ Mount Lushan Beer 🍻: Don't be curious! It tastes very ordinary. You're better off buying a bottle of iced mung bean soup to quench your thirst. ⚠️ [Things to Avoid: Steer Clear of These "Pits"] 1. Sightseeing Bus Routes 🎫: The Mount Lushan scenic area is large and the attractions are scattered. I recommend buying a "sightseeing bus pass" (CNY 70/person, unlimited rides within 7 days). Don't trust the private cars 🚗 soliciting customers on the roadside; you'll easily get ripped off and it's not safe! 2. Don't Buy Wild Mushrooms 🍄: Some old women in the market sell wild mushrooms. If you're not a professional, don't touch them. There's a high risk of poisoning! 3. Don't Get Too Close to the Cliff When Taking Pictures 📷: Mount Lushan has many cliffs, and the wind is strong. Safety first! I saw someone almost get blown over while trying to take a picture, and it scared me to death 😱! 💤 [Accommodation Recommendations: Stay on the Mountain or at the Foot of the Mountain?] 🌌 Stay on the mountain (Guling Town): Convenient! You don't have to climb the mountain back and forth, and you can stroll around the town and see the stars ✨ at night. I recommend staying in a guesthouse with a balcony; just open the curtains in the morning and you'll have a mountain view! (Suitable for those who want to relax and have a mid-to-high budget) 🌅 Stay at the foot of the mountain: Cost-effective! Suitable for those who are driving. Go up the mountain early in the morning to avoid the crowds, but climbing the mountain every day is exhausting... (Suitable for those on a limited budget and in great shape 💪) 🌿 Finally, I want to say that Mount Lushan is truly a place where "your eyes are in heaven, but your legs are in hell!" But when you stand on the top of the mountain and see the sea of clouds rolling ☁️ and hear the roar of the waterfall, you'll feel that it's all worth it. Remember to go with a relaxed attitude, don't rush, and slowly feel the wind, clouds, and trees in the mountains. That's the right way to experience Mount Lushan!

But if you don't do your homework before you come, you'll really take a lot of detours 😅. Today, I'm here to share my Lushan travel experience with you. It's super detailed, and this one article is enough. Save it quickly! 🚗 Transportation Lushan is very convenient to get to, with several options available. 🚌 If you take the train to Jiujiang Station, you can take a special bus directly to Guling Town in Lushan after exiting the station. The ticket costs about CNY 20, and the journey takes 1–2 hours. 🚗 If you are driving, head towards Lushan North Mountain Park Gate via Hehualong to the Jiuwei Avenue from Jiujiang; tourists coming from Nanchang can get off the expressway at the Tongyuan exit and arrive at Lushan South Mountain Park Gate. However, be aware that the road to Lushan is a winding mountain road with many bends. If you are prone to motion sickness, remember to prepare motion sickness medicine in advance. 🚠 To visit the attractions on Lushan Mountain, you must take the Lushan sightseeing bus. Private cars and taxis are not allowed to enter the scenic area. The sightseeing bus ticket is CNY 70/person and is valid for 7 days. You can get on and off at any stop, which is very convenient. 🎫 Special Ticket Offers The Lushan Scenic Area ticket is CNY 160/person and covers most of the attractions.

It has a rating of 4.7 and is hidden in the valley, where you can quietly enjoy the sunset and sea of clouds. The room facilities are luxurious, and the service is super attentive. There is also the Lushan Hotel, a century-old ancient building where you can enjoy the spring scenery of Lushan. It is full of historical charm, and the photos look great. 👍 If you want a boutique homestay with a higher cost performance, the Lushan Songmo Homestay is a good choice. It has a Japanese-style pine forest courtyard, as well as a private hot spring and barbecue. It's super cozy. Huazhu · Lushan Yueyao Homestay (Lushan Xiaotianchi Branch) is also very good, with a rating of 4.9. Located on Lushan Mountain, you can see the mountains when you look up and the fog when you open the window, as if you are in a fairyland. ✨ Tour Order Lushan attractions can be roughly divided into the East Line, the West Line, and other areas. It is recommended to visit the West Line first, and then the East Line, so that you don't have to backtrack and you can see all the essential attractions.

#Two days and one night in-depth tour of Mount Kunming, nanny-level strategy is here! Hey, everyone! If you are planning a ready-to-go trip, then [Yunshan Scenic Area] in Jiujiang, Jiangxi is definitely worth putting on your list. Next, I’ll take you around with this super detailed two-day and one-night nanny-level guide! ## Mount Kunming, more than one mountain Mount Kunming is not a simple mountain. It is a huge mountain range formed by many peaks. The whole scenic spot is based on [ Yuling Town] as the core, the area is vast, and the various attractions are relatively scattered. One day is far from enough if you want to take in the beauty and cultural landscape of Kunming, so I highly recommend arranging a two-day and one-night trip so that you can slowly feel the unique charm of Kunming. ## Transportation Guide: Choose the right stop and get off easily Jiujiang is located in Jiujiang City, Jiujiang has two railway stations, namely [Jiujiang Station] and [Yushan Station]. These two stations are very convenient for access to Kunshan, and there are direct buses between the two stations. However, they do have some differences: - If you don't plan to be in Accommodation and dining in Yuling Town, but want to walk inside Jiujiang at night and experience the lively atmosphere of the city, so choose [Jiujiang Station] is right. - If you bought a ticket for the Kunshan Cable Car, [Kunshan Station] is even more convenient. There is a free shuttle bus that can take you to the cable car. Imagine taking the cable car and slowly ascending, with the beautiful scenery of Mount Kunming gradually unfolding before your eyes. The feeling is simply awesome! ## Scenic Area Tickets: Clearly spend The fare information of Yanshan Scenic Area is as follows: - **Yunshan Tickets**: Adult tickets are $160, students can enjoy a discounted ticket price of $80 with valid ID. Students, don't miss this benefit! - **Three Stack Springs Tickets**: $63. The cascade of Three Stack Springs falls like a crisp white ribbon from the mountains, and the spectacle is sure to amaze you. - **Three Stack Springs mini train round trip**: RMB 80. If you don't want to get too tired, taking the mini train is also a good option, which can save a lot of energy. - **Scenic Area Bus**: The fare is 90 yuan, this fare includes the cost of one up and down the mountain, and you can swipe your Mainland China ID card to ride at will within 7 days in the scenic area. With it, you can freely navigate the scenic area. - **Yunshan Cable Car Round Trip**: $120. Riding the cable car with stunning views of Mount Kunming from the air is definitely a unique experience. - **Hankou Cable Car Round Trip**: 80 yuan. In Hanyukou, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Lake Poyang, and the cable car trip will make your viewing more relaxing. ## Entrance to Mount Kunming: Each has its own merits There are four gates in Mount Kunming: east, south, west and north. Each gate has different characteristics and uses: - **West Gate**: There is a cable car, you can choose to take the cable car up the mountain. Sitting inside the cable car compartment is like being in the clouds, with lush mountains and forests at your feet, and it feels like you are traveling through a fairyland. - **North Gate**: Close to Jiujiang Station, from where you can take a bus up the mountain. Very convenient for tourists coming over from Jiujiang Station. - **South Gate**: Close to Yushan Station, also by bus up the hill. If you are arriving from Kunshan Station, the South Gate is the perfect choice for you. - **East Gate**: Most visitors may not be able to use this mountain gate, however it will come in handy in both cases. Firstly, if you only plan to see the three-stack spring, it is more convenient to enter from the east gate; secondly, if you want to hike through the mountains and experience the feeling of being close to nature and challenging yourself, the east gate is also a good starting point. ## Tour Route: Three routes, each exciting Kunshan is divided into three tour routes: East, West and Central, each with its own unique scenery and characteristics: ### Middle Line (Humanities-based) This route is full of rich humanities that you can follow Departing from Yuling Town, we will visit the Meiyuan Villa, the former site of the Yanshan Conference, the museum, and Lulin Lake. Finally, you can also go to the Yanshan Love Cinema to feel the charm of classic love movies. The Villa Mei-Yuen was once the residence of Chiang Kai-shek and Song Mei-ling, and it retains many items and historical traces from that time, as if you can travel back to that turbulent time. The former site of the Kunshan Conference has witnessed important moments in Chinese history. ### Western Line (not too strenuous) The trip on the western route is relatively easy, and you can first come to Ruqin Lake to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lake and mountains. Then stroll through the Brocade Valley and Flower Trail and feel the uncanny workmanship of nature. The Immortal Cave is a mysterious and legendary place, which is said to have been the place where immortals practiced. Both Datianchi and Dadam Station have their own characteristics, allowing you to feel the perfect combination of human wisdom and natural forces while enjoying the beautiful scenery. ### Eastern Line (test of stamina) The eastern route is a purely scenic route, but the test of physical strength is greater. You can start from Hanyukou, which is the perfect place to watch the sunrise over Poyang Lake. In the early morning, when the sun rises slowly from the lake, the golden sunshine shines on the lake, which is sparkling and beautiful. Then head to Bailu College, one of the four famous colleges in ancient China, full of rich cultural atmosphere. Wu Lao Peak, on the other hand, is known for its precipitous mountains and spectacular views, standing on the top of the mountain, overlooking the surroundings, the rolling mountains make you feel the majesty and magnificence of nature. Finally, we come to Three Stack Springs. The waterfall falls in three levels. The drop is huge and splashing. It is majestic and will surely make you forget to leave. ## Food and accommodation arrangements: The town of Yuling is a warm harbor It is recommended that you arrange your meal and accommodation at [ Yuling Town]. There are a wide variety of hotels and restaurants that cater to a wide range of tourists. However, it should be noted that Room prices in Yuling Town vary widely during the off-peak season, so book at least two weeks in advance to ensure you can book your desired room. And individual high-end hotels offer transfers to make your travels even more convenient. Imagine returning to a warm and cozy hotel after a day of play, taking a hot shower and then tasting the local cuisine, that is simply a treat! ## Courteous Tips: Make your trip perfect ### Itinerary - **Central Line + West Line**: Tour these two routes in one day. If you still have extra time, you can also go to [Little Sky Pond] to watch the sunrise and sunset. Many people say that Hankou is the best sunrise viewing spot, but I think Xiaotianchi is no less impressive. Here, you can quietly wait for the sun to rise or set and feel the magical changes in nature. - **Eastern Line**: This is a purely scenic route that takes a full day to navigate. If your time is tight, it is recommended to give up the mouth and start directly from the White Deer Academy, which can save some time and energy. ### Playing Notes - When going to [Wu Lao Peak], the sightseeing car must take the "Wu Lao Peak Station", do not get off at the "Hankou" station, otherwise you may walk a lot of wrong roads. To go to [Three Stack Springs] is to go down from the Four Peaks. - If you need walking sticks for climbing, the shops on the roadside of [Three Stack Springs] sell them for only two dollars each. After use, you can send it back to the original store, and you can also exchange it for a bottle of water to drink, which is both environmentally friendly and affordable. - The trip on the eastern route will be more tiring, it will really climb to the point of doubting your life. So be sure to travel light and bring the necessary items as well. At the same time, be sure to wear a comfortable pair of shoes to make your trip easier and more enjoyable. My children and I walked more than 20,000 steps on the Eastern Route and realized the importance of choosing a good pair of shoes. - If you choose to drive yourself, you need to book your vehicle up the mountain in advance on the “One Machine Travel” WX applet. Vehicle up the mountain ticket is 45 dollars, but excluding holidays and winter and summer vacations, you must plan in advance oh. After reading this guide, are you already eager to go to Kunming to start a fantastic trip? Then take action now, I believe Kunming will leave you with an unforgettable memory!

After two days as a "porter" in Lushan, I realized how disastrous it is to travel without a plan! This pitfall avoidance guide, bought with worn-out knees, will teach you how to experience the wildest Lushan with the least amount of money! 📍Location Guide Lushan's main peak has an elevation of 1,164 meters and spans several districts of Jiujiang. Main entrances: The North Gate (Jiujiang direction) is suitable for driving, while the East Gate (Sandie Spring direction) requires hiking up the mountain. Guling Town is the base camp on the mountain, a "city in the sky" hanging in the clouds. 🚠Transportation: The Good and The Bad ✅ Lifesavers: • Cable Car: Take a taxi from Jiujiang Station to the cable car station (10 minutes). It's a 10-minute ride straight to Guling Town, saving you from throwing up at least 3 times compared to the winding mountain road. • Hardcore Option: Hike the Haohanpo Trail. Climbing 4,380 steps is the true test of a Lushan hero. ❌ Don't Do This: Driving up the mountain on weekends? Peak season traffic restrictions will leave you stranded halfway up! 🍜Must-Try Food Go for it: 1️⃣ Stone Ear Mushroom Stewed Chicken: Free-range chicken raised by mountain villagers, stewed with wild stone ear mushrooms (a relative of black fungus). So delicious, you'll lick the bowl clean. 2️⃣ Guling Barbecue: Unnamed stalls hidden in the alleys of Main Street. 5 yuan/skewer. The exploding juice of the grilled tofu is comparable to pee-wee meatballs. Avoid: 🎒Essential Gear ✅ The Holy Trinity: • Folding Trekking Poles (The steps up to the Five Old Men Peaks are more grueling than going to work) • Waterproof Phone Case (The mist at Sandie Spring is more intense than a humidifier) • Knee Pads (You'll thank me later when you descend) ⛰️Lazy Traveler's Itinerary Day 1: West Route - Cultivating Immortality 08:00 Take the cable car directly to Guling Town and start your day with a 5-yuan bowl of mixed rice noodles. 09:00 Rush to Ruqin Lake to capture the morning mist. Wear a Hanfu dress on the boardwalk and instantly transform into Bai Qian (a goddess). 11:00 Take a photo with Bai Juyi at Flower Path. The virtual peach blossoms in his garden bloom all year round. 14:00 Take on the challenge of the Splendid Valley. Don't cry if a macaque steals your snacks at the Immortal Cave. 19:00 Watch the movie "Romance on Lushan Mountain" and learn some 1980s pure love warrior fashion. Day 2: East Route - Overcoming Tribulations 05:30 Catch the sunrise at Hanpokou. Stuffing hand warmers inside your down jacket is standard practice. 08:00 Climb to the fourth peak of the Five Old Men Peaks and then turn back. The tree branches on the fifth peak will ruin all your photos. 13:00 Challenge the 2,600 steps of Sandie Spring. The small train will only save you 1/3 of the way. 18:00 Relax at Lulin Lake. ⚠️Hard-Learned Lessons ❗ Buy a 7-day pass for the sightseeing bus! Buying single tickets will make you question your life choices as you get taken on circuitous routes. ❗ Meilu Villa closes at 4pm. Don't be like me and get locked out. ❗ Sandie Spring becomes just three trickles of water during the dry season. Ask your guesthouse owner about the water level before you go. ❗ The mountain weather forecast is pure guesswork. A raincoat is always more reliable than an umbrella. Capture the deserted wonderland at 6am, escape the midday heat in an old villa sipping cloud-mist tea, and wait for the unexpected waterfall clouds in the evening—this is the ultimate Lushan experience, ready to conquer all.

After 4 days as a "special forces soldier" in Jiujiang, experiencing both pitfalls and treasures, here's a no-nonsense guide to cure your indecision! 📍Itinerary｜New Surprises Every Day Day 1: Lushan Mountain ✅ Core Mission: Conquer the Eastern Route of Lushan • Morning: Rush to [Hanpokou] to witness the sea of clouds. Arrive before 7am for a sunrise view of the clouds resembling a flowing milky lake. • Noon: Enjoy [Scrambled Eggs with Stone Ear Mushrooms] at Guling Town, 38 RMB/serving. The earthy aroma of the mountain delicacies is divine. • Afternoon: Climb [Five Old Men Peaks]. Don't count the steps! Reaching the fourth peak is sufficient, as the fifth peak's view is obstructed by trees. • Evening: Head to [Lulin Lake] to capture the Klein blue waters. Wear a *hanfu* and transform into a martial arts heroine. Day 2: A Day of Rivers and Lakes ✅ Double Lake Excursion: • Morning: [Poyang Lake Grasslands]. Navigate to "Luoxingdun". When the water level is low, you can walk to the island in the heart of the lake. Wear hiking boots to avoid the mud. • Noon: Savor [Steamed Mandarin Fish] in a fishing village. Don't fully trust the店家's claim of "freshly caught"! Look for bulging fish eyes for true freshness. • Afternoon: [Xunyang River Scenic Area]. The second floor of the Pipa Pavilion offers a stunning vantage point, capturing the Yangtze River Bridge like a rainbow suspended in mid-air. Day 3: Immersed in History ✅ Culture Connoisseur's Route: • Morning: [Bailudong Academy]. Join a guided tour to hear anecdotes about Zhu Xi. The thousand-year-old osmanthus tree in the backyard is heavenly scented. • Noon: Purchase [Tea Cakes] as souvenirs at the academy entrance. Look for the "Xunyang Tower" brand and avoid loose tea. • Afternoon: [Donglin Giant Buddha]. Make a wish while climbing the 487 steps. The lighting at the summit is free, don't be fooled into paying. Day 4: Time to Unwind ✅ Relaxation Mode: • Spend the day at [Lushan West Sea]. Choose the "Fishing Village Islands Route" and doze off in a hammock on Canghai Island. • Hidden Mission: Buy freshly picked oranges from the island owner. 5 RMB gets you a plastic bag full, three times cheaper than in the scenic area! 🍜Food Recommendations and Warnings Must-Tries: 1️⃣ [Poyang Lake Wine-Soaked Fish] 15 RMB/box. Slightly sweet with a wine aroma, perfect with porridge. 2️⃣ [Radish Cakes] 2 RMB/each. Choose those freshly fried in the oil wok, as they become tough when cold. 3️⃣ [Lushan Cloud Mist Tea] 50 RMB/can at farmer's markets. Sample before buying. Avoid at All Costs: ❌ The "Three Stones Feast" in the scenic area is overpriced. Order Stone Ear Mushroom Tofu at local eateries for better value. ❌ Avoid the fruit slices at the Yangtze River Bridge night market, especially those marked with "seasonal price". ⚠️Hard-Learned Lessons 1️⃣ Purchase the 170 RMB combo ticket for the Lushan sightseeing bus! Buying individual tickets will lead to confusing routes. 2️⃣ The Xunyang Tower entrance fee isn't worth it! Capture better panoramic shots from outside. 3️⃣ Choose the 2pm ferry for West Sea. Fewer crowds in the afternoon, plus you can enjoy the sunset. 4️⃣ Think twice before visiting restaurants recommended by taxi drivers. 5️⃣ Look for the "Liang Yilong" brand when buying tea cakes. Many counterfeit versions exist. 🌟Summary: The Right Way to Experience Jiujiang The secret to enjoying Jiujiang in four days can be summed up in four words: "Rise early, explore." Wake up at 5am to chase the morning mist of Lushan, wander through alleys to discover decades-old shops, and wait for a sunset over Luoxingdun—this is the authentic Jiujiang that travel bloggers don't dare to reveal.
