We, two adults and two children, took a bus from Tianwai Village up the mountain, then climbed the Eighteen Bends to Nantianmen, where we stayed overnight at Yunchao. The next day, after watching the sunrise, we took the Peach Blossom Spring cable car down and then walked down the mountain for nearly three hours. The scenery was beautiful along the way, accompanied by the sound of gurgling mountain springs, and it was a relaxing experience. The only problem was that the Peach Blossom Spring cable car ticket was a bit expensive. Overall, Mount Tai is worth visiting again and again. Next time, when the children are older, we'll take the Red Gate route.
