My goodness, how can the snow scenery of Mount Laojun be so beautiful!!!

"Having traveled to the mortal world for a splendid feast, I've witnessed the grandeur of an era." Where is the paradise on earth? It is none other than the snowy Mount Laojun! If there is indeed a paradise in this world, it must be Mount Laojun with its "white snow, golden temples, rime ice, and sea of clouds..." Looking back now, it's still overwhelmingly stunning. I believe it will surely amaze you too. No one can resist the winter charm of Mount Laojun. Tips for visiting Mount Laojun in winter: 1. Be sure to bring ice grips, the anti-slip artifact. 2. Hat, gloves, and warmers, the three essentials for cold protection. 3. Ancient costumes paired with the snowy golden summit are incredibly photogenic; you can rent ancient costumes and capes for 30 yuan each at the foot of the mountain. 4. A thermos and a power bank are also essential; it's too cold at the summit. 5. Mount Laojun meal package (instant noodles) for 10-15 yuan per serving. 6. Children under 1.4 meters in height enter for free. 7. Suggested tour route: First-level cable car (a must-ride) -- Hall of Relief -- Fairyland Tunnel -- Thousand-Year Maple King Service Area (with instant noodles) -- Ten-Mile Gallery (about 2 kilometers in total) -- Funiu Mountain Summit (the highest peak of Mount Laojun) -- South Heaven Gate (Golden Summit Taoist Temples) -- Descend via plank road -- Peak Forest Cableway (second-level cableway, choose to ride if you're tired) -- Hall of Relief -- Middle Heaven Gate (cable car down the mountain) -- Parking lot. I hope this guide will be helpful to you. Mount Laojun

What a heavenly place this is

There are two cable car routes on Mount Laojun, the first segment you can take either the Zhongling cable car or the Yunjing cable car, both cost 70 yuan for the ascent and 65 yuan for the descent, with a round trip costing 130 yuan. Taking the Yunjing cable car, just by looking at those barriers, you can tell how crowded Mount Laojun gets during peak tourist season. Once you get off the cable car, you arrive at Zhongtian Gate, in front of which stands the statue of Laozi riding a bull, symbolizing the legend that after transmitting the 'Tao Te Ching', Laozi departed on a green bull. In the eleventh year of the Zhenguan era (637 AD), Emperor Taizong of Tang commissioned Wei Chi Jingde to rebuild the Iron Top Laojun Temple on Jingshi Mountain and bestowed the name 'Mount Laojun'. Further up, there is another cable car route, the Fenglin cable car, which costs 45 yuan for the ascent and 40 yuan for the descent, with a round trip costing 80 yuan. It is not recommended to take this cable car. Instead, enter through Zhongtian Gate and walk up the mountain to enjoy the scenery along the way. It takes about three hours. The mountain peaks stand tall and steep, as if cleaved by knives and axes, with the original appearance of the rocks well-preserved, recording the structural evolution process of the ancient North China landmass, including rift, aggregation, collision, and orogeny since ancient times. The rock formations are unique and have been named 'Laojunshan Rock Body' by domestic geologists. Between the peaks, there is a view at every step, with the scenery constantly changing and each view picturesque, hence it is known as the 'Ten-Mile Gallery'. After enjoying the Ten-Mile Gallery, you will reach the Wuwei Pavilion, where it is written 'There is no road longer than the journey by foot, no mountain higher than the people'. You can take a short rest here; this is the main peak of the Funiu Mountains, with an altitude of 2297 meters. Standing here, you can take in the entire 800-mile Funiu Mountain range. You can also gaze far into the Golden Top Temple complex. Here, you feel especially close to the sky, and on clear days, it is essential to be prepared for sun protection. There are many people taking photos, so continue towards the opposite Golden Top. It takes about twenty minutes to reach the South Heaven Gate, and climbing the steps will take you to the Golden Top Taoist temple complex.

It's not that one leaf obstructs the view, it's just that I am in the midst of this mountain

March, the time when spring is gradually thickening, I embarked on a journey to Mount Laojun alone. This trip was not for anything else, but to explore the legendary fairyland and to feel the tranquility and mystery of the mountains. In the early morning, I packed my bags and set off on the road to Mount Laojun. Along the way, I saw mountains upon mountains, all lush and green. However, this seemingly peaceful forest hides endless vicissitudes and stories. Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, I chose to take the cable car. As the cable car slowly ascended, I looked down at the mountains below and couldn't help but feel an inexplicable emotion. These mountains, these waters, these clouds, seemed to be telling something, and I, just a passerby, was trying to listen to their voices. Upon reaching the summit, I first visited the Golden Summit Taoist temples. Despite the weathering, these temples still stand firm. I wandered among them, feeling the profoundness and solemnity of Taoist culture. Each temple seemed to be a witness to history, silently guarding this land. Then, I came to the glass viewing platform. Standing here, I felt as if I was in the clouds, surrounded by endless seas of clouds and mountains. I closed my eyes and felt the breath of nature, and a wave of inexplicable emotion surged in my heart. For lunch, I tasted the local specialties at a small shop on the mountain top. Although there were no delicacies from the mountains and seas, it had its own unique flavor. After the meal, I sat alone on the open ground at the summit, looking at the distant peaks and the nearby sea of clouds, and my mind was filled with inexplicable thoughts. In the afternoon, I continued along the mountain road. The scenery along the way, though not dramatic, was full of charm. I passed through woods, crossed streams, and felt the gifts and power of nature. In the evening, I arrived at Mane Ridge. From here, I could overlook the entire beauty of Mount Laojun. The setting sun's afterglow spread over the mountains, turning everything golden. I stood quietly here, enjoying this peace and beauty. As night fell, I took the cable car down the mountain. On the cable car, I looked back at Mount Laojun, filled with emotion. These mountains, these waters, these clouds, will become unforgettable memories in my life. Back home, I sat alone at the table, reminiscing about the day's experiences. Mount Laojun, a place full of mystery and charm, made me feel the greatness and power of nature. I believe that in the days to come, I will set foot on this land again to explore more unknowns and beauties.

Autumn in Laojun Mountain

Laojun Mountain has been particularly popular in recent years, and people flock here for mountain climbing. All for the sunset at the top of the mountain and the lights on the golden dome. When the sun gradually sets and finally there is no light, the lights of the two golden domes and the Taoist temples suddenly light up, coupled with the reflection of the stream of climbers, it is really beautiful! At 11 noon, we took the first cable car to Zhongtianmen and started to climb the mountain on foot. There are already beautiful sceneries. We walked and played to the Ten-Mile Picture Screen, where the scenery is even better. The vegetation is not as good as the mountains in Jiangxi or Anhui, but the momentum is still there. At 5 pm in the evening, we arrived at the golden dome just in time for the sunset. A perfect day. The return cable car queue for more than an hour and a half, we live in Zhongtianmen, saving the queue in the dark.
