Life advice: When in Chenzhou, you must take a ride on the space elevator

If the scenes from the movie 'The Wandering Earth' were real, I think they must be hidden here. The cliff elevator, built at an altitude of 1600 meters, connects the magnificent mountains. After being covered with heavy snow, it really resembles the apocalyptic feel of the movie, which is very shocking. There is also a mountain cable car🚡, crossing over the mountains⛰️ and shuttling through the sea of clouds, which is truly indescribably beautiful. ❗️The key point is: you don't have to climb this mountain - ▪️This is the Mangshan Wuzhifeng⛰️ in Chenzhou, Hunan, at the junction of Guangzhou and Hunan. It's a 1.5h high-speed train ride from Guangdong, or a 3-4h drive🚗. You can easily enjoy the freedom of seeing snow and take in the spectacular mountain ranges and sea of clouds, which is very worthwhile whether it's snowy or not. - ✅When leaving, I also saw the 'Ice and Snow Yao Year' event at the tourist center, with dragon dance performances, Qinglong parade, Yao costume dance show, and flying songs from February 11-16! Really looking forward to it! I'm already thinking about visiting Mangshan for the third time. - ✅Recommended check-in spots ❶Motianling Elevator: It really has the feel of a space elevator, a transparent elevator shuttling through the clouds, worth a ride for 40💰, saving you from walking 666 steps. ❷Cliff Plank Walk: Mostly flat paths, and if you encounter a sea of clouds, it's like a fairyland ❸Xiaotiantai: A great place to take in the entire mountain range and also to watch the sunrise. ❹Wandering Valley Camp/Camp Coffee: Great view, relaxing with coffee, staying here overnight to welcome the first light of morning is super blissful. 🔸There are also many other points of interest like the Reflection Pool, Wuzhifeng, Jinbian God Pillar, and more! - ✅Recommended route Cable car🚡 mountain climbing → Cicada Worshiping Buddha → Reflection Pool → Wuzhifeng landmark → Canyon Restaurant → Motianling Elevator → Wangyue Platform → Jinbian God Pillar → Camp Coffee → Xiaotiantai → Return trip - 📍Address: East Gate of Wuzhifeng Scenic Area, Mangshan, Yizhang County, Chenzhou, Hunan 🕰️Hours: 8:00-18:00 (entry stops at 16:30) 🚄Transport: After arriving at Chenzhou West Station, a round trip by car🚗 to the scenic area costs about (300-400), self-driving is more recommended - ✅About mountain climbing This is a mountain that doesn't require climbing. The cable car crosses about 5-6 mountains in roughly 20 minutes to reach the top, then you walk along the trail, circling the mountain in about 3-4 hours. There are elevators and escalators for any climbing needed, suitable for both the elderly and children. - ✅About accommodation Recommended to stay at the Fan Villa Hot Spring Homestay or the Wandering Valley Camp on the mountain top. 🔸We stayed at the mountain top camp at night, the tent had heating, and the living facilities were very complete. Located at Qingliang Platform, you can overlook the mountains, and walking to Xiaotiantai in the early morning, you can see the beautiful sunrise and sea of clouds, which is really worth it. - ▪️There will be snow in February, be sure to check the weather before going, the day after the snow is the best time to appreciate it, and you can also see the sea of clouds. -
