This is the best place for me to shoot red leaves every time. The fresh air here, the fragrance of trees, and the spread of green grass make me feel the reality, cleanliness, and relaxation of nature. People who have lived in the city for a long time especially yearn for and cherish the outdoors, jungles, fields, and mountains. It's so quiet here that you can only hear the slight wind, passing over the treetops, staying in the depths of the forest. Most of the people who come to Mount Lu for autumn tours are older aunts. It seems that only they have enough time to contact nature. I saw that there were also some young girls, most of them were internet celebrities with free professions, who came here for travel notes and travel photography. For them, coming here is not for fun, but more for work. Sometimes I think such work is pretty good.

I was 'PUA-ed' by the slogan 'If you haven't been to the Threefold Spring, you're not a Lushan visitor,' which is written on Lushan's promotional boards and the seat covers of tour buses. It's hard not to notice and it sparked the determination to visit the Threefold Spring. 🚘 Transportation: I got off at Lushan Station, and it was already 6:30 pm when I arrived. My accommodation was booked in Guling Town, which required getting to the Lushan Scenic Area. The bus from the high-speed train station to the scenic area ends at 6 pm during the off-season, so I missed it 🥲 I had to either share a ride or take a taxi. There were many people soliciting rides at the exit, and it costs about 150 to Guling Town. It's best to carpool if possible～! 💰50 per person Tips: The mountain roads up to Lushan are too winding! If you get carsick, don't play with your phone 😵 🍛 Dining: There are convenience stores like Meiyijia, KFC, and many restaurants.

This winter's "snow" has been particularly lively. First, there was the early snow in December. Then came the snow and freezing rain in January. Before the year's end, there was widespread snowfall across the country, and the south was no exception; many places suffered from severe cold weather, and the freezing rain affected the operation of high-speed trains and bullet trains, causing a large number of tourists to be stranded at stations. Spring Festival time in Jiangxi still had the feeling of a sunny March, and people went out to visit temples and various scenic spots. The Pure Land Garden of Donglin Temple also welcomed a post-New Year peak of visitors, with more than 100,000 tourists over several consecutive days. The bright sun shone, and the plum blossoms bloomed, their fragrance wafting in the wind. Tourists stopped to take photos and check in. In the blink of an eye, a bout of freezing rain and snow took us into a silver world, instantly experiencing the scenery of the northern frontier. However, this snow was a bit different from that of the north; it was not so soft and fluffy, but made a rustling sound as it fell, half-melting and half-freezing into ice on the ground. From a distance, it looked like snow, but up close, it was actually a layer of ice, hard and crisp underfoot. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be freezing rain. The photos below showcase the beautiful scenery of the Pure Land Garden of Donglin Temple under the freezing rain.

"Not recognizing the true face of Mount Lu, for I am in the midst of this mountain," this is the best portrayal of Mount Lu. Because Mount Lu is hidden in the mist, like a maiden wrapped in white gauze, from a distance, one can only see the clouds and mist covering the mountains, and its true face remains elusive. To truly understand Mount Lu, one must trek and climb, approach her side, to lift the veil and behold her beauty. Mount Lu in winter is like a serene and spiritual world, clear and elegant like crystal, pure and refreshing like a vacuum, with endless charm. The winter scenery of Mount Lu, its realm, its landscape, its sentiment, and its rhythm, can be called unparalleled in the south of the Yangtze River. A heavy snowfall turns it into a vast white ocean. The original winding peaks, lush forests, and towering pavilions... all become delicate white 'waves'. Those waves, so crystal clear, so pure, so pristine, float like flocks of cranes and geese in this sea of waves.

1. Weather❄️: Seeing snow requires luck, so you can follow the blogger's stakeout, or choose a hotel with free cancellation. 2. Hotels🏠: It is recommended to stay near Guling Street, where facilities are more complete, close to the central park, and convenient for sightseeing. 3. Transportation🚌: After arriving at Lushan Station or Jiujiang Station by high-speed train, you can take the cable car (120r round trip, about 10 minutes) or a bus (10r, about 1 hour) to go up the mountain. Taxis to Guling Street are also available (about 50r per car). There are sightseeing buses on the mountain (70r, valid for one week), but some attractions are closed in snowy weather, so purchase tickets accordingly. 4. Dining🍚: Most restaurants on Guling Street are both expensive and not tasty, so it is advised to order meals at least 1 hour in advance. You can also bring instant food to the mountain. 5. Sightseeing🏃: The scenery of Qin Lake is beautiful when it snows and there is fog; on clear days in Central Park, you can see the entire town; the trails around Lulin Lake are photogenic and less crowded. 6. Experience🤩: The snow on Mount Lu depends on the weather, and we were very lucky on the 21st when we went up the mountain, as we saw rime, a heavy snowstorm, and the clear skies after the snow. The above information is for reference only, wishing everyone a smooth snow-chasing journey!✨
