In-depth Tour of Dengfeng Sanhuangzhai

Who understands the joy of conquering Shaoshi Mountain in 3 hours at this hidden "Songshan secret" in Dengfeng? 🏔️ On Sunday, we did a special forces-style check-in at Sanhuangzhai Scenic Area, truly proving the saying "If you don't climb Sanhuangzhai, you’re not a true Shaolin visitor!" We rushed to the scenic area entrance at 8 AM, took a 20 yuan shuttle directly to Haohan Slope, and started our power walk mode 🚶 🌟Must-bring treasure gear: ✔️Refreshing and thirst-quenching cucumber (a bite while climbing instantly recharges you) ✔️Energy-boosting Snickers bar (a piece halfway up the mountain instantly refuels you) ✔️Comfortable and non-slip sports shoes (some stone steps are really steep!) ⏰Timeline test: 8:30 Shuttle arrives at Haohan Slope 9:00 Officially start climbing 11:30 Successfully reach the summit of Liantian Peak (About half an hour for photos and rest) 12:00 Take the cable car down easily 💡Tested tips: 1️⃣Go early to avoid crowds! When we descended, the queue of visitors going up was several times longer 2️⃣The Liantian Peak viewing platform offers excellent views; remember to take panoramic photos with your phone in landscape mode 🥾Practical information: 📍Address: Inside Sanhuangzhai Scenic Area, Songshan Shaolin Scenic Area, Dengfeng City 🚗Transportation: Recommended to drive to the Shaolin Scenic Area parking lot 🎫Tickets: Included in the Shaolin Temple combined ticket (booking online is more cost-effective) 🚠Cable car: 70 yuan per person one way (a must for the descent!)
