Encounter Yunqiu Mountain, Experience the Wonders of Nature

On the vast land of Shanxi, there lies a breathtaking fairyland—Yunqiu Mountain. The scenery here makes one feel as if they are in a dreamland, with surprises at every step. The Yunqiu Mountain's millennia-old ice cave group, one of the world's three major natural ice caves, exudes a mysterious and enchanting charm. Whether it is the thirty-degree heat of summer or the sub-zero cold of winter outside, the cave maintains a constant low temperature of minus six degrees. This miraculous phenomenon remains an unsolved mystery to this day. No need to travel to Iceland; you can experience the stunning beauty of ice caves right here, as if stepping into a kingdom of ice and snow. Yunqiu Mountain is not only home to magical ice caves but also a natural forest oxygen bar. Walking through it, breathing in the fresh air, and feeling the embrace of nature, you can enjoy the tranquility and beauty without the constraints of a ceiling. The scenic area boasts two majestic peaks, the highest being Yuhuang Peak and the second being Zushi Peak. Different routes offer different sceneries. If you want to check off the most famous spots in one go, you can choose the route of Wulong Palace - Virgin Valley - Yuhuang Peak Cableway - Yuhuang Peak - Mandarin Duck Bridge - Ice Cave Group - Talpo - Shenxian Valley - Scenic Area Exit. Although it involves climbing many mountain paths, the scenery along the way is breathtaking. If you prefer less climbing, you can take the Yuhuang Peak Cableway to the Zushi Peak Cableway, then climb for 15 minutes to Zushi Peak to experience the feeling of walking in the sky at Tianmen. For the lazy, the elderly, and children, the route of Wulong Palace - Ice Cave Group - Talpo - Shenxian Valley - Scenic Area Exit is the most suitable, as it requires almost no climbing and covers the three core scenic spots. Before entering the ice cave, you will be provided with a Northeast floral cotton-padded jacket and helmet. Be sure to wear them, and long pants are recommended, as the low temperature inside the cave will give you a slight chill. Remember to clean your phone lens before taking photos to avoid blurry pictures due to the temperature difference between inside and outside, missing the chance to capture stunning shots. There are no vending points on the mountain road; you will only find them at the ice cave and Talpo ancient village, so it is recommended to bring your own water, food, and mosquito repellent. Yunqiu Mountain's wedding customs are also unique. The Talpo wedding performance will explain traditional wedding customs in detail, and you can experience an ancient wedding for 99 yuan, feeling that unique romance. Don't rush down to catch the shuttle at Shenxian Valley; walk a few steps to the top, where sunlight filters through the leaves, making for great photos. For accommodation, you can choose Kangjiaping ancient village, which is highly popular in summer, making it hard to find a room. Additionally, Yunqiu Mountain also has a ski resort, adding more fun to winter visits. Come to Yunqiu Mountain and embark on an unforgettable natural journey!
