One-day trip to Laojun Mountain by female college students in 2005! The strongest strategy is here

First time to Laojun Mountain, super detailed lazy travel guide‼ ️ Laojun Mountain is located in Luanchuan County, Luoyang, Henan Province, a bit far from the city, so the transportation part needs to be detailed. If you drive yourself🚗, you may need parking information, and if you use public transportation, you may need to explain the situation of shuttle buses or carpooling🚕. Ticket prices and cable car fees are also required. There may be discounts for booking tickets online in advance, so be reminded of this‼ ️Tourists. There are two cable cars in Laojun Mountain, Zhongling and Yunjing. If you want to save time, I definitely recommend taking the cable car. If you want a day trip, you may only be able to take the essential route, such as taking the first-level cable car to Zhongtianmen, and then taking the second-level cable car or walking 🚶‍♂️. The Ten-Li Painted Screen and the Jinding Taoist Temple Group are core attractions and must be included. The time arrangement should be tight, for example, set off at 7 am and arrive at 9 am, take the cable car up the mountain, then the Ten-Li Painted Screen takes about 2 hours, and arrange another 1-2 hours at the Golden Summit, and get down the mountain before 3 pm to avoid dark. In terms of food and beverage, there may be simple meals on the mountain, but it is recommended to bring your own dry food 🍞 and water 🥛 to save time and money. The precautions include keeping warm 🧣, the large temperature difference at the top of the mountain, and safety tips, such as 🈲⚠️ not climbing undeveloped areas. Tourists may also be concerned about the best places to take photos, such as Ma Zongling and the glass observation deck. We can recommend several viewing locations. In addition, some people may want to hike, but don’t have enough time for a day trip, so the cable car is recommended. There are also possible questions such as whether a tour guide is needed, but it may be more free to travel by yourself on a day trip.‼ ️⚠️This can be mentioned in the strategy guide. Also consider seasonal factors. For example, the snow scenery is beautiful in winter ❤, but you must be careful to prevent slipping. Laojun Mountain is a Taoist holy place. Users may also be interested in its cultural background, so a brief introduction can be given. In short, the guide needs to be comprehensive but concise, highlighting the key points so that users can play efficiently 😝 and not miss the best parts. Laojun Mountain is located in Luanchuan County, Luoyang City, Henan Province. It is one of the famous Taoist mountains in China and is famous for its steep and unique peaks, sea of ​​clouds and sunrise, and Taoist culture. The one-day tour is tight, but you can still appreciate its essence with reasonable planning. The following is an efficient and practical guide for a one-day trip to Laojun Mountain: 【Itinerary planning】 Recommended route (cable car + hiking 🚶‍♂️ combination, saving time and effort): Visitor Center → Zhongling/Yunjing Cable Car (Level 1 Cable Car) → Zhongtianmen → Fenglin Cable Car (Level 2 Cable Car) → Shili Huaping → Main Peak of Funiushan Mountain (2217 meters) → Jinding Taoist Temple Group (Laojun Temple, Yuhuangding, Liangbaotai) → Descend the mountain (on foot or by cable car) ⚠️⚠️ Note: The entire hike takes 6-8 hours. For a day trip, it is recommended to take at least the first-level cable car to save energy. 【Core attractions】 Shili Painting Screen (Must-check-in!‼️) The suspended plank road + the peak forest wonders make you feel like you are walking in a landscape painting, and you can take pictures of the "sea of ​​clouds" and "strange rocks" along the way. Highlights of the route: Qingyun Peak, Qianzhang Cliff, and Harmonious Love between Luanfeng and Fengming. Jinding Taoist Temple Group The Golden Palace Complex, located at an altitude of 2,200 meters, includes the Laojun Temple, the Jade Emperor Peak, and the Liangbao Terrace. It is shrouded in golden light at sunrise and sunset, just like a heavenly palace. Ma Zong Ling The highest point of Laojun Mountain overlooks the peaks. It is particularly stunning when the sea of ​​clouds rolls. [Love].  【Time Arrangement】 07:00 Depart from Luoyang (self-driving 🚗/🚕carpooling about 2 hours, bus 3 hours) 09:00 Arrive at the scenic spot and take the 1️⃣ level cable car (15 minutes) to Zhongtianmen 09:30 Take the 2️⃣-level cable car (10 minutes) or hike for 1.5 hours to the entrance of Shili Huaping 10:00-12:30 Visit the Shili Painting Screen (about 5 kilometers, 2 hours of walking) 12:30-13:30 Climb to the top of the Jinding Taoist Temple complex, lunch (bring your own dry food/simple meal on the top of the mountain) 14:00-15:00 Go down the mountain (it is recommended to take the second-level cable car + the first-level cable car to save time) 16:00 Return to Luoyang/Zhengzhou 【Practical Information】 Tickets: 100💰 (discount for online purchase 1 day in advance) Cable car fees: First-level cable car (Zhongling/Yunjing): round trip 130💰 Second-level cable car (Fenglin): round trip 80💰 transportation: From Luoyang: Take a bus from Longmen Station/Bus Station to Luanchuan (38💰), then transfer to the scenic area bus (5💰). Self-driving: Navigate to "Laojun Mountain Scenic Area", parking fee is 10💰/day. Equipment: light sports shoes, windproof jacket (large temperature difference on the top of the mountain), power bank, a small amount of cash💰 (⚠️⚠️ signal is unstable). [Avoidance Guide] Avoid holidays as there are a lot of people on weekends and the queue for the cable car may exceed 2 hours. Food and drinks at the top of the mountain are expensive (instant noodles 12💰, hot water 5💰), so it is recommended to bring your own energy bars and chocolate. The lighting time of the Golden Summit is 17:30-18:30 (may be adjusted in summer), so you may miss it if you take a one-day tour. Please confirm in advance. Be careful when traveling on rainy or foggy days as the scenery will be greatly reduced and the mountain roads will be ⚠️⚠️ slippery. 【Photo booth】📷 Aerial photography of Jinding📷: Yuhuangding and Liangbaotai are in the same frame (wide-angle lens is best). Ten-mile Painting Screen: the corner of the suspended plank road (with layered peaks in the background). Glass observation deck: Cliff and sea of ​​clouds at your feet, please be careful if you are afraid of heights. I hope the kids who are traveling are happy😀😀
