What a heavenly place this is

There are two cable car routes on Mount Laojun, the first segment you can take either the Zhongling cable car or the Yunjing cable car, both cost 70 yuan for the ascent and 65 yuan for the descent, with a round trip costing 130 yuan. Taking the Yunjing cable car, just by looking at those barriers, you can tell how crowded Mount Laojun gets during peak tourist season. Once you get off the cable car, you arrive at Zhongtian Gate, in front of which stands the statue of Laozi riding a bull, symbolizing the legend that after transmitting the 'Tao Te Ching', Laozi departed on a green bull. In the eleventh year of the Zhenguan era (637 AD), Emperor Taizong of Tang commissioned Wei Chi Jingde to rebuild the Iron Top Laojun Temple on Jingshi Mountain and bestowed the name 'Mount Laojun'. Further up, there is another cable car route, the Fenglin cable car, which costs 45 yuan for the ascent and 40 yuan for the descent, with a round trip costing 80 yuan. It is not recommended to take this cable car. Instead, enter through Zhongtian Gate and walk up the mountain to enjoy the scenery along the way. It takes about three hours. The mountain peaks stand tall and steep, as if cleaved by knives and axes, with the original appearance of the rocks well-preserved, recording the structural evolution process of the ancient North China landmass, including rift, aggregation, collision, and orogeny since ancient times. The rock formations are unique and have been named 'Laojunshan Rock Body' by domestic geologists. Between the peaks, there is a view at every step, with the scenery constantly changing and each view picturesque, hence it is known as the 'Ten-Mile Gallery'. After enjoying the Ten-Mile Gallery, you will reach the Wuwei Pavilion, where it is written 'There is no road longer than the journey by foot, no mountain higher than the people'. You can take a short rest here; this is the main peak of the Funiu Mountains, with an altitude of 2297 meters. Standing here, you can take in the entire 800-mile Funiu Mountain range. You can also gaze far into the Golden Top Temple complex. Here, you feel especially close to the sky, and on clear days, it is essential to be prepared for sun protection. There are many people taking photos, so continue towards the opposite Golden Top. It takes about twenty minutes to reach the South Heaven Gate, and climbing the steps will take you to the Golden Top Taoist temple complex.
