"Conquer all the Five Great Mountains, the most exquisite scenery at Sanqing Mountain"

Now I truly understand why Su Shi gave such high praise.
Sanqing Mountain boasts extraordinary peaks, peculiar rocks, cascading waterfalls, and misty scenery.
The sunrise and sea of clouds, ancient trees and beautiful flowers, and cliffside trails, among others.
It is renowned as the "most beautiful among the Three Pure Ones," a famous Taoist sacred mountain.
The beauty of this landscape is beyond words to describe.
Being in Sanqing, I feel like I'm in a fairyland~
Everywhere you look, you can see the masterpieces left by nature~
If you happen to encounter some fog, the only word to describe it is "magical".
The sunrise and sea of clouds here are also stunning, definitely not to be missed.
The longer you stay in the city, the more you can appreciate the value of the mountains and the countryside.
I have carefully compiled three recommended scenic routes for Sanqing Mountain, I suggest you save them!

Above the Golden Sand Cable Car is a gigantic granite column resembling a python, lifelike and standing tall after millions of years.

Also known as the Eastern Goddess, the entire shape resembles a young girl with flowing hair, exquisitely beautiful, a testament to nature's craftsmanship.

⚠️Tips
❶Remember to bring hiking poles and non-slip shoes, and wear long sleeves and pants to protect against mosquitoes.
❷The vegetation here is dense, and recent rain has made the roads slippery and crowded with people. Pay attention to the safety of the elderly and children.
❸When hiking, try to travel light and bring only a small amount of water and food. Comfort should be the priority when it comes to clothing.
