Why are there even more people on Mount Laojun on snowy days?

Live updates from Mount Laojun are here! Walking all the way to the top of the mountain left me speechless... Ladies, be sure to check the weather before you come! ❄️ Recent Weather Temperature: 0-5°C (around -10°C at the summit) Golden Summit light-up time: 17:50-18:30 (super dreamy✨) Sunrise time: 5:46 Sunset time: 18:36 👗 Outfit Suggestions The three-layer dressing method is always reliable! Base layer + sweater + shell jacket (with lining) Gloves, scarf, and hat are a must! (Recently, the sea of clouds appears very easily, perfect for stunning photos) 🚠 Travel Route Ticket gate → First-level cableway → Zhongtian Gate → 1-hour walk → Wonderland Tunnel → Ten-Mile Painted Screen → Nantian Gate → Golden Hall Total duration about 4 hours (excluding photo time) 💣 Pitfall Avoidance Guide 1️⃣ Don’t depart from Luoyang after 2 PM! The cableway closes at 15:30 2️⃣ One-day tour groups are super cost-effective! 255 RMB includes transportation + ticket + cableway (buying separately costs 390 RMB) 3️⃣ You must take the first-level cableway! Walking without it means 5 hours through wild mountains 4️⃣ The second-level cableway is optional (except for elderly and children) 5️⃣ Use the restroom in advance! The women’s restroom line is scary 🥲 6️⃣ At Zhongtian Gate, there are two paths 👉 the wooden plank road on the right is easier 7️⃣ Buy blessing plaques during the car ride, they’re half the price! 8️⃣ Bring hiking poles! They also make great photo props 📸 9️⃣ Don’t take shortcuts! You’ll miss the stunning Ten-Mile Painted Screen 🔟 Best scenic spots for check-ins: Mazong Ridge, Jade Emperor Peak... 🍜 Food Tips There’s a Mixue Ice City right at the foot of the mountain❗️ Hot drinks and instant noodles are 12 RMB per cup (don’t bring your own) Recommended to bring: 2 bottles of water + some snacks 📸 Best Photo Spots Ten-Mile Painted Screen (the sea of clouds is amazing!) Golden Hall light-up night view (a like magnet on social media) Zhongtian Gate after snow (effortless ancient-style shots) PS: Leave right after watching the sunset! Otherwise, the line going down will make you question life 😭
