Baiyun Mountain Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Moxing Summit Baiyun Mountain Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Deep within Guangzhou's Baiyun Mountain lies a treasure trove of a secret resort hotel, once a state guesthouse
It must have been over a decade since I last climbed Guangzhou Baiyun Mountain. What was it like to spend a night on Baiyun Mountain the night before last?
The Baiyun Mountain Villa is located in the Baiyun Mountain Scenic Area, which is known as the 'Lung of Guangzhou City', surrounded by the natural scenery of blue sky, white clouds, clear water, and green forests. It has a long history and a profound cultural heritage, designed by the renowned Chinese Academy of Engineering academician and master architect Mo Bozhi. The building is constructed according to the mountain terrain and is famous for its unique garden design. When guests enter the hotel rooms, they slowly ascend from the first to the fifth floor without feeling tired, which is a clever design by the architect! The room layout is reasonable, comfortable, warm, and elegant, making guests feel at home!
The next day, I successfully climbed to the highest peak of Baiyun Mountain, Moxing Ridge, at an altitude of 328 meters, overlooking the bustling areas of Guangzhou, with a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery!

Guangzhou Baiyun Mountain Scenic Area
Visit Baiyun Mountain on the weekend to check in
Extreme Special Forces route
Bought a cable car and ancient ticket for $10 to take the cable car up the mountain
Then take the sightseeing bus to the entrance of Moxing Ridge
Moxing Ridge ticket is 5 yuan, very user-friendly and you can also take the elevator to the top
The elevator opens at 10 am
The highest point is 382 meters above sea level, it was foggy, it would be better on a sunny day
There are fewer people in the morning on the weekend, and it gets more crowded as time goes by, saw people
queuing for the cable car when coming down the mountain at noon
The perfect family-friendly route for a trip to Baiyun Mountain in Guangzhou
Take a leisurely stroll with the kids, and definitely choose this classic Baiyun Mountain climbing route in Guangzhou.
🚗Transportation Strategy: It is recommended to take the bus to the Baiyun Cableway station and then directly take the cable car up Baiyun Mountain.
💰Ticket Price: 5 yuan (Cable car🚡 one-way 20 per person)
📌Little Tips:
✔️I personally suggest starting from the South Gate, where there is a cable car available. At the foot of the South Gate, there is Yuntai Garden, which you can visit if you have enough time.
✔️Taking the cableway can reach the mountaintop park. Actually, it's halfway up the mountain, where you can buy cultural and creative products and take photos for check-in.
✔️If the child is too small, it is recommended to take the sightseeing electric cart (20 per person) directly to Moxing Ridge, where you can overlook Guangzhou from the highest point in the city.
✔️If you are walking down the mountain, it is estimated to take about two hours to reach the foot of the mountain.

Cycling in Guangzhou
One of my favorite biking routes in Guangzhou is along the riverside towards Er Sha Island. Once I've entered Er Sha I walk along the riverside towards Haixinsha island.
Haixinsha is a beautiful place for a stroll. Just a reminder you can't bike on the island.
You can stop off and grab a coffee at the PAIX coffee truck on the island and get a stunning view of the Canton Tower.

Taohuajian Moutain Stream Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Good fortune in the Year of the Dragon~
At the beginning of the year, the whole family goes to Baiyun Mountain for good luck~
During the Spring Festival, Baiyun Mountain tickets are 20% off, coinciding with the Garden Expo
Baiyun Mountain is crowded with people everywhere
If you want to have good luck/peach blossom luck, you might as well go for a walk
Starting from the west gate, go up to Peach Blossom Stream (PS: You need to buy a separate ticket)
The garden is full of blooming peach blossoms, but perhaps the weather was quite extreme before, the peach blossoms are gradually withering🥀, if you want to enjoy the flowers, remember to go early~
🎫Spring Festival Baiyun Mountain 20% off: 4 yuan, 2.5 yuan for those over 60
🎫Spring Festival Peach Blossom Stream 20% off: 4 yuan, 2.5 yuan for those over 60
The west gate is closer to Xiaogang subway station, but I personally suggest taking the bus to Guangwai After all, there are too many people on the subway
A real shot of the escalator strategy at Moxing Ridge in Baiyun Mountain, Guangzhou on the first day of the year
⚠️If you want to see the newly opened Baiyun Mountain Moxing Ridge escalator scenery, it is really not recommended to come during the New Year!
There are really a lot of people!
Arrived at 12 noon, there is no parking space on the scene!
🚠It takes 2h to go up the mountain by cable car.
🚗It takes 1.5h to queue for the electric car.
👣There are people walking on the road, and there is a limit to the entrance.
Travel route tips:
1⃣️Try to go in the morning, otherwise you have to wait a long time for the electric car and cable car.
2⃣️The route that doesn't cost legs: Take the electric car/cable car to the top park➡️Change to Line D to Moxing Ridge➡️Return to the top park and then take the cable car/electric car back to the south gate.
3⃣️If there is no parking space in the parking lot, you can navigate to Yunshan Primary School where there are many parking spaces. Or wait for the parking space in Yunshan Tiandi.
4⃣️The route that does not go back: South Gate➡️Top Park➡️Moxing Ridge➡️Peach Blossom Stream➡️West Gate. Or you can play the flying cable directly to the West Gate.
5⃣️Think twice before going during the Spring Festival holiday.
⏰Business hours: Baiyun Mountain is open all day.
Cable car/electric car: 9:00～18:00
Moxing Ridge escalator: 10:00～19:00
🌸Baiyun Mountain has a Garden Expo recently,
From the South Gate➡️Mingchun Valley➡️West Gate, there are flower shows, and there are peach blossoms in Peach Blossom Stream. You can come a little later after the year.
