It is recommended to use the restroom at the Shitao Memorial Hall, as there are only public restrooms on the way from Taibai Duzuo Building to the top of Jingting Mountain. Walking up the red trail is easier, and there is basically shade from trees, so you don't have to worry about the sun. There are many poems in Taibai Duzuo Building, which is very suitable for poetry lovers to check in. After going up to Tianji Pavilion, you have to walk back, and it is in the opposite direction to the top of Jingting Mountain. You can see it from a distance in the tea garden, but we didn't go there. The top of Jingting Mountain is also the Anhui Radio and Television Station, and there is a small shop next to it selling drinks and ice cream; there is a viewing platform where you can see the sunrise in the morning, but you need to make a reservation in advance on the official account. The steps down the mountain are closer, but the steps are indeed a bit steep, so it is not recommended to climb the steps up the mountain.
