Winter in Sanqing | Embrace the beauty of the Five Great Mountains, with the most magnificent views at Sanqing Mountain

It's so comfortable to visit Sanqing Mountain during the off-season, without the hassle of crowds. During my solitary journey, I synchronized my steps with those of the ancients, as if I were traveling through time with Su Dongpo and Xu Xiake. Here's my itinerary for your reference: Take the Jinxi Shuangxi cable car up and down, and I stayed at the Ri Shang Mountain Villa, which I do not recommend due to its poor conditions. It's a 20-minute uphill walk from the cable car to the villa, so be mindful of the weight of your luggage, and it's best not to bring a suitcase. 1️⃣ On the first afternoon, start from the mountain villa in a counterclockwise direction to Yuhuangding, then walk along the Sunshine Coast to the West Coast. The sunset is just perfect for viewing from the West Coast, absolutely beautiful!! 2️⃣ Get up early at 5 am on the second day, it takes about 1 hour to reach Yutai to watch the sunrise. The area around Yutai is also nice, and it's not necessary to squeeze onto Yutai itself. After watching, continue counterclockwise to the Nanqing Garden scenic area, take a look at the giant butterfly and the goddess, and then head back to the mountain villa to descend.
