Henan Shennong Mountain | Go to the place with wind

Shennong Mountain is located in Qinyang City, Jiaozuo City, Henan Province. The reason why it is named Shennong Mountain is due to a myth - the Yan Emperor Shennong distinguished grains and tasted herbs, and set up an altar to worship the sky here. The original place of the nationally famous "Four Great Huai Medicines" (Huai Yam, Huai Achyranthes, Huai Rehmannia, Huai Chrysanthemum), has the largest number and the most concentrated distribution of rare tree species Longlin Pine in the country. There are also more than 3,000 national second-class rare wild protected animals Taihang Macaques. Shennong Mountain has a profound cultural heritage. This scenic spot is already close to the edge of Jiaozuo, and it takes two and a half hours to drive to the destination. Navigate to this place. After walking a section of dirt road, I saw the gate of the scenic spot. The gate is quite grand, but the location is too biased. 🌟Highlights: Steps→The steps in the scenic area are dense and steep, and the legs are soft at a glance. Preserve your strength, otherwise you will be too tired to come down halfway. Cableway→It is recommended to take the cable car up. The space of the cable car is not large, like my body shape, at most two people can sit, small like a sparrow's stomach. There are also many rusty spots at the connection of the cable car, and it creaks when it turns. Tour route: 1⃣Zijin Peak (commonly known as "North Peak", the main peak of Shennong Mountain, with an altitude of 1028 meters, towering and straight, standing proudly on the top of the mountains) 2⃣Longji Great Wall ("Zhongtian Jade Pillar", with an altitude of 1028 meters, the whole is about 11.5 kilometers long, currently can be visited to 2.5 kilometers) 3⃣Shennong Cableway (height difference 528 meters, one-way 25 minutes) 4⃣White Pine (the original place of wild pine, the largest number in the country) 5⃣Wild macaques→Little macaques can be seen everywhere. Some of them are in twos and threes, as if they are discussing which area's food is more delicious; some are fighting alone, maybe they have turned over a bowl of instant noodles that a tourist has not finished eating; in short, they are chattering, noisy and lively! Business hours: 8:00-18:00 (stop ticket checking at 16:00)
