Since the Yellow Emperor, people have prayed for longevity here. 🏨 Accommodation options It is recommended to stay halfway up the mountain, as it is a medium distance to climb up and down, so you won't be too tired. You can also stay in a temple, and enjoy the snow alone when you wake up. 📝 Tips: ♥️ If your goal is to see snow, you don't have to climb to the top. Just go down the mountain in time. ♥️ You can focus on the weather in this area this year. Generally speaking, it is most accurate to predict the weather one week in advance. ♥️ To avoid the problem of frozen toilets on the mountain, remember to go to the toilet in the visitor hall before departure. ♥️ Get up early, take a bus to Banshan Pavilion, and climb for an hour to Nantianmen to see the rime ice. Go down the mountain before 3/4 pm, or it will be difficult to wait for a bus.
