A Healing Journey to the Mountains and Waters|Yuntai Mountain is Perfect for Clearing Your Mind

Lately, whenever I feel stressed, I just want to run into the mountains. This time, I chose the Yuntai Mountain Scenic Area in Henan. The moment I stood in front of the Hongshi Gorge waterfall, all my worries were washed away by the flowing water. Bailong Waterfall and Qinglong Pool are truly a paradise on earth😍 🌟Must-visit spots: 📍Hongshi Gorge This red sandstone canyon is absolutely stunning. I recommend going early to avoid the crowds. The best time for photos is between 9-11 AM. 📍Zhuyu Peak At an altitude of 1308 meters, you can see the sea of clouds after reaching the summit. Remember to wear comfortable sports shoes; it’s been raining lately and it’s a bit slippery. 📍Tanpu Gorge A waterfall every three steps and a pool every five steps, the scenery along the way is breathtaking. It’s said the negative ion content here is 200 times that of the city. Breathing feels especially refreshing. 📍Mihou Valley You can interact with wild macaques here. But be sure to keep your belongings safe—they are very clever and will rummage through your bags🤣 🍴Food recommendations: The farmhouse restaurants at the entrance of the scenic area are super authentic. I recommend trying the local huimian noodles and Jiaozuo’s specialty, iron stick yam. About 50 RMB per person, very satisfying. 📌Practical tips: 1. Be sure to bring an umbrella! The mountain weather is changeable. 2. Wearing non-slip hiking shoes is very important. 3. The scenic area shuttle bus is very convenient, and the ticket includes it. 4. Bring a jacket; the temperature difference between morning and evening is large.
