Viewing the Glazed World

⏰ Best time to see snow on Laojun Mountain ❄️ Every year from November to February of the following year ⚠️ Note! The climate on Laojun Mountain is changeable. If it snowed the day before or is snowing, the snowy scenery is definitely beautiful. 📣 Laojun Mountain Scenic Area welcomed its first snow on the evening of November 16. The Golden Summit buildings look especially solemn against the white snow, with mountain mist and snow intertwining, creating a "winter wonderland." ❄️ Weather for the next few days: November 17 (Monday) moderate snow turning clear (-7°C~2°C); November 18 (Tuesday) clear (-5°C~3°C). Temperatures are low, please keep warm. 🚡 Cable Car Information ⭕️ The cable car is currently the main way to go up the mountain!! 🎫 First-level cable car (Yunjing/Zhongling Cable Car): one-way about 70 yuan, combined ticket 130 yuan, direct to Zhongtianmen. 🎫 Second-level cable car (Fenglin Cable Car): one-way about 80 yuan, direct to the entrance of Shili Huaping. ⏰ Operating hours: cable car ascent ends at 15:30, descent latest around 18:00, please arrange your time reasonably to avoid missing it. 📝 Tips: Equipment and Safety Tips: ✅ Essential gear: crampons, waterproof shoe covers, trekking poles (cheap bamboo poles sold in the scenic area), windproof gloves, fleece hat. Mountain gusts are strong, and the perceived temperature is low. ✅ Wear shoes that are slip-resistant and waterproof. You can get free hot water at the foot of the mountain with a thermos; hot water on the mountain requires payment. ✅ When hiking, "look at the scenery, don’t walk; walk, don’t look at the scenery." Do not hike alone and avoid undeveloped trails. ‼️ When visiting Luoyang, don’t just see Laojun Mountain Scenic Area, don’t miss these spots either~😍😍 🗓 Itinerary: 📍 Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival A 1:1 replica of the national treasure Northern Song Dynasty folk painting "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival," showing the peaceful and prosperous life of the people during the Northern Song period. 📍 Songshan Shaolin Temple Visit the ancestral home of Zen Buddhism and enjoy Shaolin Kung Fu👍 Experience the profound enlightenment where every move is Tao🙏 📍 Longmen Grottoes Millennium-old stone carvings tell the story of the prosperity of the ancient Tang Dynasty people, personally named by the Empress Wu Zetian!
