It's true that driving on the winding mountain road is tiring, it's true that there's cow and horse poop everywhere, it's true that it's cool and windy, and the scenery is truly stunning. Anyway, I think it's worth a visit 😜

A relatively unknown but magnificent scenic area. At Bajiaozhai Scenic Area, taking the cable car to the top reveals a breathtaking view of whales playing in the sea, a truly awe-inspiring sight. This area also marks the border between Hunan and Guangxi provinces; the other side of the mountain is Guangxi. At the summit is a row of temples, the left one belonging to Guangxi, built during the Tang Dynasty, and the right one to Hunan, built during the Song Dynasty. Walking around to the back of the temples to see the Guangxi scenery is even more breathtaking than the Hunan side. Particularly impressive is the Dragon Head Incense Burner. It's practically a single, incredibly thin cliff face. Walking along the cliff to the very top to offer incense is said to be incredibly narrow, sometimes only 10 centimeters wide! Unfortunately, only a package ticket is available, including four or five attractions. However, I wasn't feeling well today, so I only visited one attraction before heading back to the hotel. Apparently, one ticket is valid for three days; I'll check it out tomorrow.
