Anhui Huangshan

The most beautiful season that was almost forgotten

Huangshan has different scenery throughout the year, and winter, when there are fewer tourists, is called " "The most beautiful season in Huangshan", it is very interesting to enjoy the rime, see ice hangings, and soak in hot springs!

After being soaked by weapons and rain, the pine trees in Huangshan can form the spectacle of rime when the temperature drops to a certain temperature, which sparkles under the sunlight and is spectacular~

< p> Winter is also the best time to see the sea of ??clouds. The so-called sea of ??clouds refers to the clouds formed under certain weather conditions, and the height of the cloud top is lower than the height of the mountain top. When people look down at the clouds on the top of the mountain, what they see is boundless clouds, as if they are on the shore of the sea, with waves. The peaks surged, the waves splashed, and the stormy waves crashed onto the shore.

Route recommendation

The most common way to travel to Huangshan is a two-day tour. The route is divided into the front mountain and the back mountain (front mountain-Xihai Grand Canyon-back mountain) and the back mountain (front mountain and back mountain). Mountain-Xihai Grand Canyon-Qianshan). It is suitable to take the ropeway up the front mountain and down the back mountain, which is easy and does not miss the exquisite scenery in the second half. However, because the best route of the Xihai Grand Canyon is from Paiyun Pavilion to Tianhai (you can take the uphill cable car), so you have to walk for a while Way back. The route from the back mountain to the front and down the mountain is relatively smooth, but because the back mountain is suitable for walking and viewing the scenery, you either have to endure the fatigue to climb the mountain, or you have to miss a lot of beautiful scenery.

You can visit Huangshan even if you only have one day, but the schedule is tight. It is recommended to go up and down the mountain (no need to go back), and take the cableway up and down the mountain. And you have to choose not to climb the main peak of Qianshan (Lotus Peak/Tiandu Peak) or not to go to the West Sea Grand Canyon.
