The magic of Tianzhu Mountain, the best choice for May Day

🔔 It is said that after returning from Mount Huang, one need not visit other mountains, but Tianzhu Mountain, one of the three famous mountains in Anhui and equal in fame to Mount Huang, is definitely an underrated paradise on earth due to its lesser-known status. 👉 Tianzhu Mountain, also known as Qianshan, Wanshan, or Wangong Mountain, is one of the three famous mountains in Anhui. Its main peak, Tianzhu Peak, has an elevation of 1489.8m. The Tang dynasty poet Bai Juyi praised it in his poem 'On Tianzhu Peak': 'A single peak of Tianzhu holds the sun and moon, a thousand ren of cave gates lock the clouds and thunder.' ⛩️ Location: No. 112, Tianzhu Mountain Road, Qianshan City, Anqing, Anhui Province 🚗 About 🚌 transportation: ✔️ High-speed train: Qianshan Station (Tianzhu Mountain Station is the old train station, no high-speed trains) ✔️ After getting off at Qianshan Station, there is a direct tourist bus to Tianzhu Mountain Visitor Center inside the station, with a ticket price of 10 yuan (about 40 minutes' drive) to reach the visitor center. ✔️ Self-driving: Navigate to Tianzhu Mountain World Geopark Visitor Center, there are three or four parking lots which are very convenient, and the parking fee is about 20 yuan for less than 6 hours. 🎟 About tickets: Ticket (half price before 8.31) 65 yuan, students free.

(small loop) 📝 Tips: ✔️ Tickets need to be booked one day in advance. Check the weather forecast in advance, decide the time and route of climbing, and if allowed, you can climb to the top to watch the sunrise. ✔️ Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and clothes, as climbing is mostly on stone steps, which is very physically demanding. You can bring your own walking stick, which can be bought near the visitor center. ✔️ The restrooms on the mountain are all ecological restrooms, and the descending route starting from Lotus Peak has a huge number of steps. Much more than the Mysterious Valley section, be mentally prepared,
