Driving from Xi'an to Yantai, the best route for a self-driving tour of Mount Tai in Weihai

This seems to be quite tiring. As a Tai'an person who just took the bus to Taiyuan, I think it will be very tiring to drive from Xi'an to Shandong in one day.

Specific route: First take the expressway from the East Railway Station to Zhengzhou, now called Lianhuo Expressway (G30), and keep going east. It takes about two and a half hours to reach Tongguan. Continue eastward, passing Sanmenxia and Zhengzhou. Less than half an hour after passing Kaifeng, there will be a highway called Ji-Guang Expressway (G1511). Go north, that is, towards Jinan. After passing Heze, go eastward and take Ridong Expressway to the Beijing-Taiwan Expressway and go north. Until Tianxi.

A brief introduction to Taishan tourism:

1. Time

1. August is the peak season, and there will not be many people on weekends.

2. As for whether to climb the mountain in the morning or at night, it depends on your personal preference and the time of arrival. (Note: There are relatively few people climbing the mountain at night. If you want to see the sunrise, it is recommended to climb the mountain in the afternoon and reach the top of the mountain in the evening.)

2. Route

1. Go north on Hongmen Road to Hongmen Road You can climb the mountain or walk to Zhongtian Gate. You can choose to take the cableway or continue walking to Zhongtian Gate.

2. Go north on Longtan Road to Tianwai Village and take a tourist bus. You can choose to take the cableway or walk to Zhongtianmen.

3. Climbing time

1. It is about 3 kilometers from the train station to Hongmen or Tianwai Village. It takes 10 minutes by bus. The taxi starts at 6 yuan, and after 2 kilometers, it is 1.5 yuan/km. . Don’t take a taxi from the train station to Tianzhufeng. It’s about 20 kilometers and takes more than half an hour by bus. East of Taicheng. The bus from the train station to Taohuayu also takes about half an hour.

2. It takes about 4-5 hours to hike from Hongmen Mountain to Yuhuangding; 20 minutes by car from Tianwai Village to Zhongtianmen, and about 1.5 hours from Zhongtianmen to Nantianmen. It takes 10 minutes to take the cableway from Zhongtianmen to Nantianmen. It takes 3-4 hours from Tianzhu Peak to Jade Emperor Peak. Taohuayuan-Taohuayu takes 20 minutes by car and 2-3 hours on foot. Taohuayu-Nantianmen Cableway takes 10 minutes and takes 3 hours on foot.

IV. Mountaineering Fees

Tickets are 125 yuan + insurance 2 yuan, Taohuayu-Taohuayuan tourist bus is 20 yuan, Tianwai Village to Zhongtianmen 20-30 yuan (price adjusted according to season), The down trip is 18-28 yuan, and the Taohuayuan-Nantianmen/Zhongtianmen-Nantianmen cableway is 80 yuan for one way and 140 yuan for the round trip.

Note: Keep your tickets, there are ticket check points on the mountain (Hutian Pavilion, etc.)

5. Notes:

1. Bring water, it is expensive on the mountain . If you are afraid of the cold, bring some clothes as it is relatively cold in the mountains.

2. Cableways and tourist buses do not operate at night. If you climb the mountain at night, you must walk.

3. You have to buy a new ticket after leaving the mountain gate

6. Others

I recommend Fantawild Adventure in Taicheng, an amusement park that was opened last year Newly opened, 190 yuan. At the east end of Huanshan Road, you can get there by bus No. 1/7. It is about 8 kilometers away from Taicheng. There is a Zen ceremony performance at the mountain gate of Tianzhufeng Mountain Climbing, which is also newly opened. If you are interested, you can go and see it.

7. Accommodation

1. There are many hotels and guesthouses on Dongyue Street, Qingnian Road and Hongmen Road. You can choose a suitable business hotel or star hotel according to the price.

2. Hotels on the top of the mountain generally cost about 80-120 yuan, but they may not have vacancies.

In fact, it is better to go to Qingdao when going to Yantai and Weihai. Of course, you can pass through Qingdao from Tai'an to Weihai.

Go all the way east from Dongyue Street to the end, take Tai Lai Expressway to the end (1 hour), turn left towards Zibo, and then walk less than ten minutes to the Qinglan Expressway (G22) to the direction of Qingdao, all the way Head east (4 or 5 hours) and cross the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge (20 minutes) to Qingdao. From Qingdao, continue eastward on the Qingwei Expressway and go to Weihai in 2 hours.
