What people are saying:

It's OK for walking. Notion special, just a beautiful place. Yes, this is historically significant location, so, before coming there need to read about that place a littke, otherwise it will be just a small hill. I was glad to touch another piece of history in this beautiful country!

    Perfect way to spend a winter’s morning

    Taking it at a leisurely pace, walking up to Yuelu Temple was worth the effort. Lots of meandering pathways and tombs through the mountainside. Worth the effort if you enjoy the combination of nature ...

    Nice view, nice city

    We walked 1.5 hours to the top of the mount, the view on the top didn’t disappoint us, Changsha is beautiful from a panorama. Definitely recommend you to visit if you have no other planned schedule.

    Great view of Changsha!

    I would definitely take either the bus or cable car to the top. Unfortunately, the cable car was not operating when I visited, thus I took the bus. You can take an excellent photo of Changsha from t...

    Yuelu Mountain View

    They have 3 options, one take bus with site seeing or use cable car or trek to go to top of the mountain. For coming down Slider can be good choice.

Yuelu mountain! Very famous place in Changsha. The same name Yuelu is shared by academy located at the bottom of this mountain. Hunan university is also there. The mountain provides a good view on the city, of course, if the weather is OK. I don't think it worth to take the cableway to get up there. There are two reasons. Actually, this is the hill, not a mountain, so the distance is not long enough to enjoy the view from the cabin. The second, you will spend a lot of time standing in the line and waiting for your turn. So, it is recommended to climb. I said climb, but really it means walk on the ground covered by pavement, there is no stair, a few spots have steps, but mainly this is the road. Vegetation is beautiful, yes, this is true.

## Yuelu Academy is one of the four famous colleges in China's history. At the foot of Yuelu Mountain~ As one of the oldest institutions in the world, it has been completely preserved~ each group of courtyards, every stone, every brick The tile, each wind and the wind are flashing the human spirit of time-hardening~ ## is located in Qingfeng Gorge, Yuelu Mountain, Changsha City, Hunan Province. It was built in 1792 and its name comes from Du Mu. In the seven-character quatrain "Mountain Walk", "Parking and Sitting in Love Fenglin Night". is very suitable for falling in love after dark.

Hunan University is located in the Yuelu Mountain Scenic Area, which originated from the earlier Yuelu Academy. Basically walked down from Yuelu Mountain and passed through here, so it was shot again and again. Earliest, I also joked that when I took the college entrance examination, I would like to test it here. The schools built by the mountains have more artistic conception. I can climb the mountain and exercise regularly. Of course, this is really just a joke. Yuelu Mountain Scenic Area is located in Yuelu District, Changsha City, Hunan Province. It is 300.8 meters above sea level and covers an area of 35.20 square kilometers. It is the last peak of the 72 peak of Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue. It is located in the scenic spot of Orange Island, which is a mountain-like scenic spot. One of the four major scenic spots in China.
