It was really cool on the mountain. 27 degrees up there and 34 degrees down there, a full 7 degrees difference. The sky was beautiful today too, with great views from far away. The air was also nice. I also found that the tram only costs 1 yuan for parking, which is very cost-effective.
The ride was very smooth. We arrived at 2pm and there weren't many people, so we didn't have to queue. The carriage was large and stable, and even someone like me who is afraid of heights didn't feel particularly uncomfortable. We reached the top of the mountain in ten minutes, and I still felt a little reluctant to leave.

I've known about Lushan Waterfall since childhood, as I recall reading about it in the works of Tang Dynasty poets. This is where it's located. The sun shines on the incense burner, creating purple smoke. From afar, I see the waterfall hanging over the river, plunging three thousand feet, like the Milky Way falling from the sky. Only when I visit the scenic area can I truly empathize with the tranquility of Li Bai's time. The area is shady and quiet, and even on a hot day, it's not too hot. However, the line for the cable car up the mountain is long, as it's too small to accommodate two people at a time. From the cable car, you can view Lushan Waterfall, making the climb much easier. It's cool on the mountain, so you can enjoy the cool breeze there before visiting the source of the waterfall and playing in the stream.
Xiufeng Waterfall is as famous as Li Bai's "Flying Waterfall 3,000 Feet". It didn't rain in the past few days, so there was not much water. I hiked all the way there, which took about 2 hours to go back and forth for about 4km. The mountain road is easy to climb, and there are many supply points.

A free shuttle bus arrives at the entrance in just three minutes. The thousand-year-old academy offers a delightful scenery. Despite the hot weather, the academy is shaded by green trees and a gentle breeze brings a refreshing coolness. With its rich cultural heritage and bubbling springs, it's a great place to bring children.
I came to Lushan specifically to see the waterfall written by Li Bai, but the waterfall at Xiufeng is too small. The climbing to San Diequan really made my legs shake, but it was fun. There is a small stream in the middle. I highly recommend it. I just need to exercise more, otherwise I can't climb it.

The environment of Tianmu Hot Spring is really great, and the service attitude is very thoughtful. Every time I come here, I feel as comfortable as coming home. I have been there 3 times, and I want to bring my baby to experience it next time. The transportation here is also super convenient, which is great!
The last stop of the four-day Lushan trip was Lushan Tianmu Hot Spring. Because we neglected to pay attention to the business hours, we arrived at the destination at noon, but were told by the lobby that the business hours would not start until 2 pm. The beautiful Xiyan from the guest room department learned that we came from other provinces and changed the departure point of the train from Lushan Station to the relatively far Nanchang West in order to come to Tianmu Hot Spring. For this reason, she even paid a special cost to charter a car to send us to the station. After learning this, the beautiful Xiyan contacted Manager Guo of the Hot Spring Department very enthusiastically. Manager Guo arranged for the handsome supervisor Chen to make an exception to open the hot spring for us when the staff had not yet come to work. It was so touching and warm! We were instantly warm. The hot spring resort has an elegant environment, complete and humanized facilities. You can see the self-service drinking water point after walking a few steps, and it is also very convenient to change bath towels... Thank you Manager Guo, Supervisor Chen and the beautiful Xiyan for your enthusiasm to help us out and bring our Lushan trip to a successful conclusion. Thousands of words can only say one sentence: In a strange foreign land, your kindness warms our hearts for a lifetime, and I hope you are all well! !

Tickets for rafting must be booked in advance, preferably one or two days in advance. I booked them at the last minute, so they were very expensive. Tickets can be saved by 30 yuan each if booked more than four hours in advance. If you book at least one day in advance, it will be even cheaper. So before you come to play, you should make a plan in advance and finalize your itinerary. You can save a lot.
I like the rafting here. It is quite exciting, safe and secure. I had a lot of fun. But after the rafting, I still have to spend ten yuan to take the battery car to the East Gate Service Center. It would be better if it could be sent there for free. In the end, I didn't want to spend money to walk there. It's about one kilometer.
