Tickets: CNY 100/person, free for seniors over 60 years old. 3. Real-time weather: Snow around November 25, the road is icy, and going up the mountain without crampons is punishing yourself! (If you want to see the sea of clouds, you need to leave early in the morning) 4. Clothing: The temperature at the top of the mountain is around -5°C, and it will be colder at night. It is recommended to wear a short down jacket or a windbreaker with a down liner, and thicker shoes and pants. 5.

Route: During the snow season, it is recommended to take the first and second-level cable cars directly, and start walking from the entrance of Shili Hualang, which takes 1.5-2 hours to reach the Taoist temple group.
