Luofu Mountain Travel Guide: Immersive Experience of Lingnan's Number One Mountain

Luofu Mountain Travel Guide: Immersive Experience of Lingnan's Number One Mountain Luofu Mountain Travel Guide: A Practical Guide Tested by Travelers As a visitor who has been to Luofu Mountain, I have compiled this guide that balances experience and practicality, covering everything from transportation to accommodation, helping you avoid detours and efficiently explore "Lingnan's Number One Mountain." 1. Tickets and Transportation: Start Worry-Free • Tickets: Adult tickets are 54 RMB per person, students get half price with a student ID, and children under 1.3 meters enter free. It is recommended to book the "ticket + cable car" package in advance through the scenic area's live broadcast room, priced at 140 RMB per person, which is much cheaper than buying separately. • Transportation: If driving, navigate directly to "Luofu Mountain Scenic Area." The parking lot has plenty of spaces and is convenient; if using public transport, take the high-speed train to "Luofu Mountain Station" then transfer to bus 268 directly, or take direct buses from Huizhou Bus Station or Tianhe Bus Station. Buses run frequently, so no long waits. 2. Routes: Choose According to Your Needs for More Fun 1. Hiking Challenge Route (for physically fit visitors): Enter through Gate 2, pass Lion Peak, Lunlongping, Eagle Beak Rock (a rock peak shaped like a mighty eagle, great for photos), and Hero Slope (313 steps, climbing it feels rewarding), ending at Feiyun Peak. The whole trip takes 4-6 hours. At the summit, you can see layers of green mountains and rolling seas of clouds—tiring but worth it. 2. Cable Car Comfort Route (suitable for families or those with average stamina): Enter through Gate 2, first visit Bailian Lake and the Dongjiang Column Memorial Hall, then take the cable car to Eagle Beak Rock (one way 70 RMB, round trip 120 RMB), then climb Hero Slope to Feiyun Peak. The whole trip takes 2-4 hours, saving energy while leisurely enjoying the scenery. 3. Cultural Leisure Route (for visitors who enjoy cultural spots): Enter through the main gate, visit Fairyland on Earth, Bailian Lake, Dongjiang Column Memorial Hall, Chongxu Ancient Taoist Temple (a thousand-year-old temple with rich history), Herbal Medicine Culture Corridor, Dongpo Pavilion, Herbal Garden, and Ge Hong Museum. You can experience traditional Chinese medicine culture and learn about Luofu Mountain’s history. The whole trip is relaxed and stress-free. 4. Thrilling Adventure Route (for young people): For something different, head straight to the glass rafting (over 4,000 meters long, nearly 200 meters drop, screams guaranteed), jungle coaster (speed thrills through the forest), and jungle crossing for a super stress-relieving experience. 3. Must-Try Local Foods: Don’t Miss These Specialties • Luofu Mountain Kiln-Roasted Chicken: A must-order! Made with local native chicken, the skin is crispy with a crunch, the meat juicy and flavorful, a classic Hakka dish. • Baitang White-Cut Goose: Made from 100-day-old grass-fed geese, boiled in clear broth and sliced, dipped in special sauce. The goose meat is tender, not dry, with a sweet aftertaste. • Luofu Mountain Tofu Pudding: Made with mountain spring water, it’s especially smooth and tender with just the right sweetness. A bowl after hiking is refreshing and revitalizing. 4. Accommodation Recommendations: Comfortable Stays for a Happy Trip • Lanmen Village Homestay at the Foot of Luofu Mountain: A renovated old village house that retains the charm of old homes with exquisite interior decoration. Sitting in the courtyard at night, you can hear the insects chirping—very peaceful. • Puruo Mountain Villa: A lakeside villa with windows opening to mountains and lake, where you can fish and pick fruit. The rooms are spacious and clean, perfect for those wanting a relaxing vacation.
