The most detailed and complete guide to climbing Jiawutai

1⃣️Transportation: 🚗Self-driving: Navigate to Baidaoyu Village. (Parking fee at the door is 10 yuan) 🚌Public transportation: Take Metro Line 2, exit at the Convention and Exhibition Center, and take the 8:00 Huanshan Line 2 to Jiawutai Station. (The earliest bus is at 8:00, about 2 hours away. If you miss it, the next bus will be at 12:00, so you don’t have to climb the mountain.) Bring cash! Bring cash! Ring Mountain Route 2 accepts cash! 2⃣️It is a wild mountain, there is no entrance fee🎫, there are people selling crutches at the mountain pass, 2 yuan each. There are also "Beng Beng Cars", but I don't recommend riding them. Personally, I recommend buying a pair of coarse white gloves, which are more useful than crutches. 3⃣️There are almost no toilets, except for Taibai Temple (the toilet is so unbearable to look at) and the broken rocks near the dragon's back. 4⃣️The iconic "attraction" along the way - Taibai Temple - Liangpi stall - The "attractions" (landmark buildings) along the way include Taibai Temple, Ertianmen, Yunquan Zen Temple, Liangpi Shop, Cloud Ladder, Tianmen (a popular check-in spot) - Potian Stone - Chaotian Ladder - Longbei - Longtou (the experts can also go to Xuewa Mountain opposite). However, it is very difficult to get to Longbei. People who are afraid of heights should not go to Longbei as it is too dangerous. Life safety comes first. ❗️❗️Important: Water and sunscreen!!! Don't underestimate this mountain!! It usually takes 6-6.5 hours to get to Longtou, and it takes about 15 minutes to get down the mountain. 3.5 hours. Try to go up the mountain as early as possible, and be back by 4:00 at the latest. We went down the mountain at 4:40, and then we started walking at night. It was pitch dark, and it was difficult to walk up and down the mountain!! 🎒Material preparation: 2 bottles of energy drinks and 2 bottles of mineral water per person. 1 power bank. 1 sun protection mask. 1 serving of self-heating rice. Ham and other food 🥘 bring your own. I personally don't recommend eating foods that are too salty or foods that are not very filling. Tissue paper, wet wipes, etc. (The only place to eat on the mountain is the cold noodle stall, which costs 15 yuan per serving) 🌟Tip: After climbing the mountain, you can go to Lantian Tangyu to soak in the hot springs (very close, 30 minutes drive). We recommend Tiantan Hot Spring (swimming suits are required for indoor and outdoor use) or the hot springs at Tangyu Sanatorium (provincial sanatorium, relatively clean, private accommodation)
