Fanjing Mountain 2 Days 1 Night Travel Guide｜Climb the "Sky Realm" for 800 RMB per person, this Buddhist-style yet thrilling itinerary takes you into the real-life "Spirited Away" --- Do you believe it, deep in the misty southwest of China, there really is a temple floating in the sky? It’s built atop a solitary peak, like a castle growing out of the rock, with two halls on the golden summit connected by a narrow "sky bridge" just wide enough for one person to cross— Walk across and you reach the Red Cloud Golden Summit; look back, and the world lies beneath a sea of clouds. This is Fanjing Mountain— the main peak of the Wuling Mountains, a Buddhist holy site, and one of the "Most Beautiful Mountains" selected by China National Geography. For 800 RMB, you can: ✅ Hike through the primeval forest straight to the clouds ✅ Eat a bowl of steaming vegetarian noodles at 2,500 meters above sea level ✅ Take legendary photos for your social feed: "I'm in the sky, do not disturb" --- Total Budget: ¥800 (per person)｜Best Time: April-June (lush spring), September-October (clear autumn with less rain) 📍Itinerary: 2 days 1 night｜Suitable for couples/photographers/solo travelers, moderate pace with some challenge --- Day 1: Arrive in Tongren → Let your body adapt to the "fairyland altitude" 🚄 Transport: High-speed train to [Tongren South Station] or [Tongren Station] Accessible nationwide, e.g., Changsha → Tongren ¥230 (about 2.5 hours) 🚌 Taxi to [Zhaisha Dong Village, Jiangkou County] (¥80, 40 minutes) — closest and most authentic lodging near the scenic area 🏨 Accommodation: Dong Village homestay ¥260/night (includes pickup + breakfast) Recommended: "Yunshe Mountain Residence" or "Fanshan Yunyin," wooden houses with green tiles, open the window to layers of green mountains 🍲 Dinner: Farmhouse local dishes ¥50 Must-try three treasures: smoked pork with bracken, wild mushroom chicken stew, glutinous rice wine (slightly sweet and mild) 🌙 Evening tasks: ✔️ Listen to a Dong ethnic group grand song performance (free) ✔️ Sleep early!

You can even save some money to buy a "Fanjing Mountain Blessing Plaque" to hang on a tree --- Fanjing Mountain Exclusive Tips (Practical + Avoid Pitfalls) ✅ Clothing formula: quick-dry shirt + windbreaker + hiking shoes + double-layer socks, the mountain is often rainy and slippery ✅ Energy management: easy pace in the first half, the last 2,000 steps are a "soul test," rest every 500 steps recommended ✅ Travel light: only bring water, power bank, camera; the lighter the backpack, the happier you are 🚫 Absolutely avoid: ❌ Wearing new shoes! Blister warning! This mountain path will make you question life ❌ Bringing self-heating hotpot up the mountain—open flames are banned at the summit, and it’s too heavy to carry ❌ Cutting in line to grab summit slots—staff strictly control flow, no use causing trouble! --- Conclusion: 800 RMB buys more than just scenery, it buys— a stubbornness to keep climbing while gasping for breath, a sudden tearful realization standing above the sea of clouds. Fanjing Mountain tells you: True purification is not escaping the world, but finishing your own journey on the steepest path. At the moment of reaching the summit, you will understand: I come not to see the world, but to let the world see— I too can reach the heights.
