Itinerary 1: Ruqin Lake, Huajing, Jinxiu Valley. Follow Ruqin Lake to Huajing, then walk down from a small bridge, and follow the mountain road to the direction of Xianren Cave and Datianchi. The scenery on this route is very beautiful, especially Jinxiu Valley, which is a must-see for everyone traveling to Lushan Mountain.

After visiting these places, if time permits, you can wander around Guling Town in Lushan Mountain and visit the former site of the Lushan Conference, Meilu and other places. If you are interested, you can also watch the movie "Love in Lushan" in the evening and reminisce about the classic.

Itinerary 2: Contains Pokou, Xiufeng Waterfall, and Wulaofeng. Some people say that Sandiequan should be added to this route. In fact, Sandiequan is a long way away and tiring to play, but the scenery is very good. It is recommended to arrange a day specifically. It is best to go early to Hanpokou. There are too many people if you go late, and most of them are people from tour groups. You don’t need to spend too much time in Hanpokou. Just standing on the mountain overlooking Poyang Lake and taking pictures here, ten minutes is enough. If you are interested in plants, you can take about 1 hour to visit the botanical garden.

To go to Xiufeng Waterfall, you can take a cable car or hike, but it is more strenuous. Xiufeng Waterfall is the waterfall mentioned in Li Bai's "Wanglu Mountain Waterfall", and the scenery is good.

Half an hour is enough to play under the waterfall. You can also play around. There is a small stream here with very clear water and beautiful scenery. However, people in tour groups usually go back after arriving at Xiufeng Waterfall, so there are not many people here. many.

The morning tour is not physically demanding. In the afternoon, I went to one place, Wulaofeng. It has great scenery, but it requires climbing and is physically demanding. Hanpokou is the best place to watch the sunrise on Lushan Mountain. If the weather is good and you want to watch it, just get there before 5 a.m.

Itinerary 3: Sandiequan. Sandiequan is actually a scenic spot outside Lushan Mountain. Under normal circumstances, many tourists will go down to Sandiequan from Wulao Peak, but it is a test of physical strength, and the time is tight, so they can only take a quick tour. By arranging this trip separately, you can fully explore the beautiful scenery of Sandiequan. You can take a cable car or hike there.

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 going down the mountain, it does not require high physical strength. The cable car ride takes less than 10 minutes and the foot trip takes about an hour. At the entrance of Sandiequan, don’t forget to get a sign for returning to the mountain, so you don’t have to spend 180 yuan on the big ticket to Lushan Mountain. After arriving at Sandiequan, you can enjoy its graceful figure.

Itinerary 4: Shimen Stream. Shimenjian is also a scenic spot outside Lushan Mountain. Its scenery is the essence of Lushan Mountain, but it requires time and physical strength. Most tour groups do not include this place in their routes. Those who need to visit here should plan their time carefully. , this definitely requires at least half a day. Recommended travel routes
