New viewing platform on Mount Yamalik

New viewing platform on Mount Yamalik Update: In the afternoon at the new viewing platform, the whole city was in sight. I took some photos, but something was missing. Looking at the Jiujishiji Pavilion in the distance, a place I used to visit often, I felt a sense of never being able to return. Perhaps there were too many promises made there, and thus, too many lies. I measured the height of the new viewing platform again, 1168 meters? Starting from the second photo, all were taken this afternoon. For strangers who want to visit, if the weather is good next weekend, we can go together. It will still be on foot, taking the newly built stone stairway, specifically to take photos. Make sure to dress up nicely, as the wind often blows on the high platform, which can sway your hair and skirt hem. Old post: Today at 4:10 pm, I hiked (as cars can't enter) to the new viewing platform on Mount Yamalik (1166 meters?). Those who want to go can join. Enter through the main gate of Yashan Park on the mid-mountain side of Baoshan Road, passing by Yangfan Square, beside the Lanxin Railway, stone stairway, Huan Ting Road, Jiujishiji Pavilion, Wan Jing Imperial Villa Linfeng Community, newly built stone stairway, to the new viewing platform. (Optional: Qinglong Tower, Kite Peak, Yashan Valley Bottom, Xiting, ...) Bring at least one bottle of water. The round trip is at least 12 kilometers, with a minimum of 2 and a half hours on the road, a continuous uphill climb of 400 meters, and comfortable shoes are recommended. For photography, it is suggested to bring a camera with as wide and long a zoom as possible. Cons: Think twice if you lack patience or physical strength. Pros: Deeply experience the time on Mount Ya, with more photo spots.
