Chongqing locals are tight-lipped! They won't tell you how fun Mount Jinfo is!

Chongqing locals are tight-lipped! They won't tell you how fun Mount Jinfo is! Mount Jinfo is the go-to place for Chongqing locals. It's super convenient to drive there from the city center. We chose the west slope and navigated to the parking lot at the west gate of Mount Jinfo Scenic Area. We then bought tickets at the visitor center and entered the scenic area. We took the shuttle bus to the cable car station and took the cable car up the mountain. The steep and long cable car ride was so thrilling! On the first day, we saw many activities and cosplayers after we went up the mountain. We were so happy to take photos with them. Then we went straight to the north slope ski resort. There were many snow activities, such as snow tubing and snow bear dragging. The kids had a great time. Further inside was the ski resort. As a beginner, I was able to ski slowly under the guidance of the safety officer. Although I fell a few times, I was really happy. When we were tired, we went to the restaurant on the second floor to eat lamb soup. The lamb with skin was tender and the soup was delicious. It was so cozy to look at the snow outside the window. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Jinfoshan at night. The view of the snow-covered mountains outside the window was amazing. On the second day, we went to the Gufu Cave, which is worthy of the title of the No. 1 Buddha Cave in the world. The stalactites, stalagmites, and stone pillars in the cave were in various shapes. The stone Buddha and 1,250 Arhats were so impressive. Then we went to the Jinguichaoyang. The mountain looked like a turtle in the sunlight. Finally, we returned to the west slope to see the ice waterfall. The crystal-clear ice waterfall was perfect for photos. In my opinion, Mount Jinfo is really fun. Both skiing and sightseeing are great. I suggest you book tickets online in advance. There are many people on weekends, so set off early. Keep warm. Don't forget your hat, gloves, and scarf. Wear bright clothes to take better photos.
