2.5h direct high-speed train from Chengdu to Longtoushan for a family trip! No climbing, super easy

A hidden gem for family trips near Chengdu has been discovered! Longtoushan in Hanzhong, just 2.5 hours by high-speed train, a mountain you don’t have to climb at all, perfect for a weekend two-day trip with kids, suitable for both elderly and children~ Longtoushan is great to visit all year round: But winter is its best season, covered in silver like an "ice and snow castle." Take the kids to enjoy the winter scenery and play in the snow (there is a snow play area in the scenic spot), super healing (remember to dress the kids warmly and wear gloves). Super convenient transportation: Direct high-speed train, tickets are always available✌️, 2.5 hours from Chengdu to Hanzhong, with small tables on the train to put snacks and picture books for the kids, so they won’t get bored and can easily arrive. From the high-speed train station, take a bus 🚌 for about 45 minutes directly to the foot of the mountain, no extra transfers needed, very worry-free when traveling with kids (the bus has seats, so kids can sit comfortably). Then take the cable car + escalator to the top of the mountain, no climbing at all, no pressure for kids and elderly, just focus on enjoying the beautiful scenery (you can see distant mountains from the cable car, which excites the kids). The scenery at the top is stunning: When surrounded by mist, it looks like a "fairyland," every photo looks like a masterpiece; on sunny days, the view is wide and you can overlook the continuous mountain ranges. Stroll and take photos with the kids here, feel the grandeur of nature, and breathe fresh air (there is a rest area at the top, so you can sit down if tired). Accommodation tips: Recommended **Hanzhong Longtoushan International Hotel**, 10 minutes by car from the scenic area, with family rooms and a children's play area. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, you can give the kids a hot bath at night to relieve the day's fatigue, and enjoy a rich buffet breakfast in the morning. Summary: Longtoushan is the top choice for weekend family trips near Chengdu! Direct high-speed train, no climbing, stunning scenery, easy and stress-free travel with kids, and the elderly can enjoy it too. It’s definitely an unforgettable family time~
