2025 Mount Sanqing Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

#2024TravelReview Visiting the famous Taoist mountain #Sanqingshan was also the highlight of this trip to Jiangxi. Sanqing Mountain is located in Jiangxi Province. It is the collective name of the three peaks of Yujing, Yuhua and Yuxu. It is named because the three peaks are steep and towering, like the Three Pure Ones sitting and lying on the top. It is known as the first fairy peak in Jiangnan. In order to facilitate entry and exit of Sanqing Mountain, we chose to stay at the Hilton Hotel at the entrance of the scenic area and embarked on a two-day hiking route in Sanqing Mountain. Fortunately, the weather was good in the morning, so I could see the beauty of this fairy mountain in the fog. On the first day, we took the cable car from the Jinsha Visitor Center up the mountain, passing the Giant Python Coming Out of the Mountain, Yitiantian, Yutai and Sunshine Coast scenic areas. On the second day, we watched the sunrise from Yutai in Nanqing Garden, then went to the West Coast Scenic Area and Sanqing Blessed Land. After returning to Nanqing Garden Scenic Area, we went down the mountain from Waishuangxi Cableway. There are two high mountain plank roads surrounding Sanqing Mountain, one is the Sunshine Coast and the other is the West Coast. The plank roads built on cliffs have superb scenery and you can enjoy the strange peaks and rocks along the way. The landform is somewhat similar to that of Huangshan, but the stepped plank roads are much easier to walk than those of Huangshan. Because of its towering terrain, Sanqing Mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round. If you want to see the true appearance of this fairy mountain and blessed land, you have to try your luck and pray for good weather. Our trip was a great explosion of luck. We encountered sunshine, sea of ​​clouds and fog, and light rain in the afternoon. We were able to explore the entire landscape of Sanqing Mountain in one go! It was really worth the trip. #JiangxiTravel #Sanqingshan #TheFirstFairyPeakinJiangnan #UnparalleledBlessedPlaceinTheWorld

Sanqingshan is a place where granite landforms seats with Taoism culture. The mountain boasts a particular high biodiversity: there are 2373 species of higher plant and 1728 species of wild animals. The peak is called Lover Rock since it is a pair of rock columns connected at the bottom but separated on top looking like two lovers embracing each other. Look at that wood stairs that bring you to the top of the granite block…from there you are at the highest point and the 360 degree view is simply WoW! From there can see the Sanqing Taoist Temple immerse in the forest and the mountains range. The first lake is called Qinghua Pool and is an original rock pit left out of the granite body. The second lake is called Hanxing Pool. #tripblazers #bucketlistreboot #mytripvlog #lucaworldtraveler

It is a huge Scenic Area located in the west side of the Sanqing Mountain at 1600 meters above sea level. This area goes from Liuxia Terrace to Sanqingfudi and is about 4 kilometers. Most of the walkway is a plank road attached along the cliff (the sightseeing information board says that is the highest and longest in the world!). They really did a great job considering that without this plank road would have been impossible to visit those mountains. The road is very safe and is not scary, it is built by concrete with solid metal bars on the side. This area is has many beautiful granite peaks with different shape, and here can see the sunset. Not to mention that been at the west side of the mountain and higher than the nearby mountains the view span for kilometers and kilometers, I could even see the snow in mountains far away! Most of the 4km road is flat spot is convenient and not require too much effort on hiking as other areas. #tripblazers #bucketlistreboot #mytripvlog #lucaworldtraveler

Amazing Mountain in Jiangxi Province! How to get there? I did take High Sped Train from Shanghai Hongqiao to YushanNan South (玉山南) 2h:31 214 CNY - than public Bus N.6 to Yushan Bus Station 20min 2 CNY - followed by a tourist Bus to To South Gate 1h:20 15 CNY (Southern Cable Car 三清山索道外双溪站) - get the Entrance Ticket and go up by Ropeway (15min) 190 CNY I strongly suggest to sleep at the mountain top. I spend 4 nights at the top and I was able to explore the entire mountain areas appreciating every single spot. The place is huge and is a must to visit it in more than a day. At the top there are few accommodations, that they also do cook for guests.

Recently we were in Shangrao, Jiangxi province for a weekend hike in Sanqingshan mountain and it was really cool! The road from Shanghai to the Hilton Sanqingshan Resort in the mountains took about 5 hours (it was a subway in Shanghai, a high-speed train and a taxi to the hotel) on the second day we began to climb the mountain at 8.30 am - 20 minutes by funicular/cableway and then until 6 pm to hike completely route. I'll tell you it was cool! We caught all types of weather - sun, fog and rain! At the top there are a lot of points of attraction and super landscapes – including Sanqing Palace (old and fully functional temple), you can eat and relax, but I recommend taking a light snack and water with you, since there are not sales points in all areas. 100% recommendation if you are a mountain fan or just want to spend the weekend in an unusual setting. #naturalwonders#hiking#nationalpark

After driving for an hour from Shangrao Sanqingshan to Wangxiangu, here are some honest and practical suggestions. Before you go, make sure to do your research. Here are some personal insights: 1. Which one to visit? Nearby Wunvzhou, Gexiancun, and Wangxiangu are all man-made attractions, mainly featuring night lights with different styles. Wunvzhou has more performances, Gexiancun seems to have dragon dances, and Wangxiangu has beautiful lighting. Choose based on your preference; I personally like Wangxiangu's style. 2. Is it worth visiting? For me, it was worth it. I was attracted by the architectural layout, and the real scene is not much different from the online photos. It's worth it if you can take good photos. There are many tour groups, so choose to go during the off-season to enhance your experience. 3. Visiting time: Once you exit with a ticket, you can't re-enter. You can enter around 3 PM; the core area is a bit far from the entrance. Arrive at the core area around 5 PM to see the sunset and night view. The blue hour (half an hour after sunset) is particularly beautiful! The night view is also stunning! 4. What's inside? Honestly, there's not much to do. It's mainly an ancient-style snack street and cultural shops, mainly for photography. We took photos until 9 PM before returning to the homestay. The performances are not very impressive. There's a glass walkway, but compared to Sanqingshan's walkway, it's not much. Rafting is closed in autumn and winter. 5. Are there many mosquitoes and insects? In autumn and winter, there aren't many mosquitoes and insects, but bring mosquito repellent just in case. There are many trees and water, so there will definitely be some insects. 6. Is it tiring? The paths inside are relatively flat, so it's not strenuous to walk. 7. How are the prices inside? Slightly more expensive than outside, but acceptable. A Shangrao chicken leg is 15 yuan, a grilled squid is 10 yuan, and a bowl of shrimp vermicelli is 20 yuan. You can bring some snacks if you want. 8. Photography spots: The two best spots for photos are Baige Bridge and Baihe Cliff. Other places also offer good photo opportunities. The blue hour (half an hour after sunset) is beautiful for photos! If you have a drone, bring it! Some popular angles can only be captured by drones! 9. Renting Hanfu: I researched many Hanfu stores before going. There are many pitfalls, like charging extra for photo negatives. It's better to rent and take photos yourself to avoid these issues. I didn't find one I liked. 10. Accommodation: Whether to stay in the scenic area depends on your budget. If you have a high budget, you can stay in a homestay inside the scenic area, which is convenient for seeing the sunrise the next day. If your budget is low, you can stay in a homestay outside the scenic area, which is also close. Personally, after seeing the night view, there's no regret. Scenic spot: Wangxiangu Location: Wangxian Township, Guangxin District, Shangrao City Ticket: 120 yuan/person Transportation: Convenient from Yushan South and Shangrao stations. #Wangxiangu #WangxianguTravelGuide #WangxianguInJiangxi

🌈Jiangxi Shangrao Sanqing Mountain Sanqing Mountain exudes a rich Taoist culture everywhere. 🍑When you first enter the mountain, clouds and mist swirl around the mountains, 🍊making you feel like you've entered the clouds. After a while, the sun comes out, 🍅the mist disperses, and it suddenly becomes clear. Within a day, you can experience sunny, cloudy, and rainy weather. 🍎However, the rain in the mountains is very short, 🍏it comes and goes quickly. Tour Route A: 🍓Eastern Jinsha Cableway——Giant Python Coming Out of the Mountain——Yuhuang Peak——Sunshine Coast Scenic Area🍈——Sanqing Blessed Land Scenic Area——West Coast Scenic Area——Nanqing Garden Scenic Area——Eastern Jinsha Cableway down the mountain.🍌 Tour Route B: 🍇Southern Waishuangxi Cableway——Wanshou Garden Scenic Area——Rishang Platform——West Coast Scenic Area——Sanqing Blessed Land Scenic Area——🍐Sunshine Coast Scenic Area——Nanqing Garden Scenic Area——Southern Waishuangxi Cableway down the mountain.🥝 There is a tea house on the mountain, 🍠the view from the roof is nice. However, the food on the mountain is quite limited, with most people eating instant noodles, fried chicken legs, 🥔burgers, and other fast food. Some tourists bring self-heating rice. For a one-day trip like ours, we entered the mountain at nine in the morning and came down around four in the afternoon. 🍉The cableway seems to close at five, so if you're not staying on the mountain, remember to come down before the cableway closes.🍒 The conditions of the hotels on the mountain seem to be quite average, and after a day of climbing, 🍈we didn't want to go back up the mountain the next day as we felt quite tired. But it's still worth seeing. Recommendation Index: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

#cherryblossom2024 Compared to Jingdezhen, I love this small town recommended by the national geography more. If you go to Jingdezhen, why not go to Shangrao as well. This is the world of immortality and chivalry under Jin Yong's pen, with white walls and gray tiles depicting Chinese aesthetic paintings of iron flowers, oil lamps, autumn sun drying, and rapeseed flowers. Taking advantage of the warmth of spring and blooming flowers, going to Shangrao once will definitely satisfy all your romantic expectations. I have left Shangrao six times a year and stayed up late to organize this attack

Mount Sanqing is located in Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province, roughly between the city of Shangrao and Wuyuan County. The route I chose starts from Quzhou in Zhejiang Province, enters Shangrao City in Jiangxi Province, heads to Mount Sanqing from there, and then reaches Wuyuan after Mount Sanqing. This route includes the hottest scenic spots such as Mount Sanqing and Huangling, and after finishing the trip, I return to Shanghai from Huangshan City in Anhui Province. It's a small loop that doesn't backtrack, and the cities along the way all have nice scenery and unique local delicacies. Let's talk about Mount Sanqing! It is a famous Taoist cultural mountain in our country, as well as a world-class and national natural heritage and geological park. The highest peak of Mount Sanqing is 1819.9 meters, with the mountain mainly composed of granite. The rock peaks that can only be seen when the cable car reaches the middle of the mountain look like the high and mighty immortals overlooking the world. Next, you need to choose a tour route based on your own conditions. I chose the medium loop, which takes about 5 hours in total, allows you to visit most of the attractions, and has moderate physical requirements, suitable for both the elderly and children. The scenery of Mount Sanqing is first-rate, with most of the plants on the mountain remaining lush even in winter. The hiking route is not too strenuous, and a deep tour of the entire area can be completed in just one day. It is very suitable for a family trip. And if you want to travel to Mount Sanqing, self-driving is indeed the best choice, with equally beautiful scenery along the way. Finally, a warm tip: prepare hiking sticks and anti-slip shoe covers before going up the mountain!
