It is recommended to drive there, as Parking Lot No. 1 is closest to the ticket office. 2. Take good care of children, as some areas in the scenic spot are steep and slippery; safety first! 3. Prepare some cold meals for a quick rest, and there are places to rest and buy food all along the mountain path; remember to protect against sunburn and insects in summer. 4. Check the weather forecast before you go; sunny days are suitable for playing in the water, and on rainy days, remember to bring an umbrella and raincoat. 5. You can wear sandals, which are convenient for playing in the water, diving, and frolicking! 6. There are photo opportunities at both the starting and ending points, but the pictures may not be clear, so it's recommended to take your own photos as souvenirs.
