Lushan Travel Guide, Accommodation Route, Transportation, Lushan Attraction Recommendations

There are many scenic spots in Lushan, but some are scattered. Fortunately, there are sightseeing buses and cableways. Many cultural landscape editors think it is worth a visit, such as the beauty salon and the legendary former residence of Song Meiling. It is very artistic and the former residences of Zhou Enlai and Mao Zedong are well worth visiting.

If you drive into the mountains by yourself, it costs 45 yuan per car.

(2) Accommodation: Accommodation on the mountain is tight during holidays, so it is best to book accommodation in advance. If you want to stay in a B&B, you should book at least a week in advance. Accommodation conditions on the mountain are average and prices are relatively high. Generally, a standard room in a hotel costs about 300 to 400 yuan, and the price of accommodation during holidays will increase by about one-third. The food on the mountain tastes good, but the price is high.

(3) Transportation: There is a special tour bus on the mountain, which costs 80 yuan per person. You can ride it unlimited times a week and can go directly to the entrance of various attractions. If you go to Lusha

After these tours, if time permits, you can go around Guling Town in Lushan Mountain and visit the former site of the Lushan Conference, beauty salons and other places. If you are interested, you can also watch a movie "Lushan Love" in the evening and reminisce about the classics.

Itinerary: Hanpokou, Xiufeng Waterfall, Wulaofeng. Some people say that Sandiequan should be added to this line. In fact, Sandiequan is very far away and very tiring to play, but the scenery is very good. It is recommended to arrange a special day. It is best to go to Hanpokou early, but there are too many people arriving late, mostly from tour groups. It doesn’t take long to cover Poyang Lake.

Just stand on the mountain overlooking Poyang Lake and take pictures here. Ten minutes is enough. If you are interested in plants, you can take about 1 hour to visit the botanical garden.

You can take the cable car or walk to Xiufeng Waterfall, but it is very hard. Xiufeng Waterfall is the waterfall mentioned in Li Bai's "Wanglu Mountain Waterfall". The scenery is nice. Half an hour is enough to play under the waterfall. You can play everywhere. There is a small stream here with very clear water and beautiful scenery. However, people in tour groups usually go back to Xiufeng Waterfall, so there are not many people here.

Morning walks do not require much physical strength. In the afternoon, I will go to a place, namely Wulaofeng. It has great scenery, but it requires climbing and is very physically demanding. Pokou is the best place to watch the sunrise in Lushan Mountain. If the weather is nice, you'll want to go see it too. Just arrive before 5am.

Itinerary: Sandiequan. Sandiequan is actually a scenic spot outside Lushan Mountain. Under normal circumstances, many tourists will go down from Wulao Peak to Sandiequan, but this is a test of physical strength and time is tight, so they can only take a quick look at the scenery. By arranging this itinerary separately, you can fully explore the beautiful scenery of Sandiequan. You can take the cable car or walk.

There is a path at the entrance of Sandiequan Scenic Area, which goes down a stream. The scenery on both sides is extremely beautiful, and because it is downhill, it does not require much physical strength. The cable car ride takes less than 10 minutes and the hiking trip takes about an hour. At the entrance of Sandiequan, don’t forget to get a sign saying Return to Lushan, so you don’t have to spend 180 yuan to buy the big ticket to Lushan. When you arrive at Sandie Spring, you can admire its graceful figure.

Itinerary 4: Shimen Stream. Shimenjian is also an attraction outside Lushan Mountain. Its scenery is the essence of Lushan Mountain, but it requires time and physical strength. Most tour groups arrange routes without it. Those who need to visit here should plan their time well. Definitely spend at least half a day here.
