"Overlooking the Five Great Mountains, the ultimate scenery lies in Sanqing Mountain"

Returning from Sanqing Mountain, the stunning beauty leaves a lasting impression. Rarely have I used the word "stunning" to describe a landscape before, but this time I finally understand why Mr. Dongpo praised it so highly. Stepping into Sanqing Mountain, you encounter jagged peaks and bizarre rocks, towering ridges upon ridges; lively waterfalls and streams, enchanting frost scenes; magnificent sunrises over seas of clouds, ancient trees and famous flowers full of charm, and thrilling cliffside plank roads. After rain, the mist swirls around as if stepping into a mystical fairyland; the sunrise over the sea of clouds is breathtaking, a rare earthly wonder not to be missed. The carefully planned route takes 5 to 6 hours, allowing you to experience the essence of the scenery: starting from Jinsha Cableway, passing Giant Python Emerging from the Mountain, Penguin Offering Peach, Eastern Goddess, Azalea Valley, Jade Terrace, One Line Sky, Sunrise Villa, West Coast Plank Road, Pine Forest, Sunshine Coast Aerial Plank Road, Yuhuang Peak, Fox Biting Chicken, and then returning to Jinsha Cableway. From May 1st, the Sanqing Palace Scenic Area opens the Gangshou Cableway, providing direct access to the area for 1 to 2 hours of sightseeing. Early bird tickets are only 199 yuan, not to be missed. 【Transportation Guide】 📍 Located in the Sanqing Mountain Scenic Area, Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province. 🚄 Take the high-speed train to Shangrao Station, Yushan Station, or Yushan South Station, then transfer to a carpool or bus, about 1 hour to reach. The scenic area is open from 7:30 to 17:30. 【Must-See Attractions】 ✅ Giant Python Emerging from the Mountain: A giant granite pillar resembling a python, standing proudly after millions of years of weathering. ✅ Eastern Goddess: A girl with hair draped over her shoulders, naturally sculpted, showcasing nature’s exquisite craftsmanship. ✅ West Coast: The perfect place to watch the sunset, with picturesque views along the hiking plank road, every step a scenic spot. ✅ One Line Sky: A steep rise between cliffs, the narrowest part only wide enough for a person to squeeze sideways, full of thrilling excitement. ✅ Sanqing Palace: An open-air ancient architecture museum, gathering steles, pagodas, and stone carvings with superb craftsmanship. ✅ Azalea Valley: From late April to June, the slopes bloom with colorful alpine azaleas, a limited-time spectacular view not to be missed. 【Helpful Tips for Visitors】 ❣️ Cableway operating hours are 7:30 to 17:30; pay attention to the descent time to avoid delays. ❣️ Dress lightly, wear comfortable shoes, bring trekking poles and enough water. ❣️ The temperature varies greatly in the scenic area; if staying overnight to watch sunrise or sunset, bring warm clothing; prices on the mountain are relatively high, so prepare food in advance. ❣️ Frequent recent rains make paths slippery; elderly and children should be extra cautious. Always check the weather before traveling.
