Jiangxi Lushan | Nanny-level Two-Day Snow Viewing Guide The Snowy City on the Mountain Top||

||. Best Time to View Snow From the end of December to March, choosing the day after the snowfall when it's sunny is the most beautiful! ❄️Recommended Itinerary Day1: Nanchang - North Gate of Lushan - Lushan Love Cinema - Meilu - Park Center - Guanyun Pavilion Day2: Hanpokou - Lulin Lake - Guanyun Pavilion - Ruqin Lake - Little Heavenly Pool 🚠Transportation Take a high-speed train from Nanchang to Jiujiang or Lushan Station, then take a bus or taxi to the foot of Lushan. There are 5 ways to go up Lushan: (see picture 9) 1⃣️Cable car (up 70, down 60, round trip 115): Take bus 57 from Jiujiang Station to 【Lushan Cableway Lower Station】. Or take the tourist line from Lushan Station, but there are only 6 trips per day, not recommended, taking a taxi is more convenient. Drive to 【Lushan Cableway Parking Lot】, there is a 2km distance from the parking lot to the cableway lower station, with a free shuttle bus available. 2⃣️North Gate Sightseeing Bus (round trip 20+mountaintop sightseeing bus 70): Take bus 86 from Jiujiang Station to 【Lushan North Gate Station】, drive to 【Lushan North Gate Transfer Center】. 3⃣️South Gate Sightseeing Bus (same price as North Gate): Closer to Lushan Station, drive to 【Lushan South Gate Visitor Center】. ⚠️Take the cable car during the off-season, and the sightseeing bus during the peak season when the cable car queue is long. It is recommended to buy a mountaintop sightseeing bus ticket, which allows unlimited rides within 7 days, as the Lushan attractions are scattered and it's too exhausting without the sightseeing bus. 4⃣️Self-driving/Chartered car: Not allowed to drive up the mountain during summer vacation/May Day/National Day/snowy days 5⃣️Hiking ❄️Snow Viewing Spot Evaluation 1⃣️ 🌟Five Stars Must-Visit🌟 ✅Guanyun Pavilion: View sunset/cloud waterfall. The rime around is extremely beautiful. Take photos of Guling night scene during the blue hour, absolutely stunning! ✅Park Center: Panoramic view of Lushan villas ✅Hanpokou: Best for watching the sunrise, the sightseeing bus starts at 7:30, so you need to hike there (1.5 hours from Guling) for the sunrise.
