We had fun on our daytour at Jinfo Mountain last weekend! It was a snowy week and so we took the chance to see the snow this year. It was Monday but there were so many people but the whole place was huge and we were able to take so many pictures!

Getting There - There is a direct bus from Chongqing long-distance Bus Station to Nanchuan, departing every day from 8:30am till late. From Nanchuan you can find many local buses heading to the mountain. When the sunshine falls on the Grand Jinfo Mountain, it looks like a giant Buddha shining with boundless golden radiance, hence the name. The entire scenic area has two slopes with distinctive attractions for sightseeing. @VickWalks and I spent the entire day trying to find a trail that hasn’t been stepped on for a long time and we failed due to limited knowledge of the mountain landscape of this area. Nonetheless, it was fun to explore this area and appreciate the beauty of this “Golden Buddha Mountain” #china #hiking #nationalpark #naturalwonders

An amazing trip and unforgettable experience I've ever had..You will not regret going to this place. It is convenient hiking for more than an hour.There is a food stall if you're hungry, and nearby there is a comfort room for everyone to use. It's a bit scary if you are afraid of heights but don't worry about it cause the walkway can fit 2 people😅.I recommend this place to visit if you can..

Climbing to the highest point is also not hard as the path is very good. Compared to Chongqing's first, second, and third peaks, it's almost effortless. Those who want to stay in a temple can go to Jinfosi Temple. Those who want to go to the back mountain of Jinfoshan can take a look; the back mountain canyon is even more beautiful, and there are many peculiar rocks.

As we all know, when you go to a new place to travel and ask your local friends where is fun, you will generally be driven to find your own strategy🤥 - Some time ago, I wanted to go skiing in Chongqing, and I caught my colleague who is a local in Nanchuan to be a guide. When it comes to the most famous skiing resort in Nanchuan, Jinfo Mountain🛕, he just waved his hand and let me find my own strategy😒 It's better to ask for yourself than to ask for others, and it's better to make your own strategy than to find it. This painstakingly, time-consuming three-day Jinfo Mountain strategy quickly codes it📜😭 I don't share it with ordinary people. - I highly recommend self-driving from around Chongqing and Sichuan🚗 And it's best to arrive the night before, find a good hotel🏨 The next day, it's best to arrive at the foot of the mountain before seven o'clock, there are a lot of people on holidays, reserve enough time to queue up at the door⌚ If you can't buy tickets online🎫, you can also buy them on site, there's no big problem, don't hesitate! - ❄The best route is to choose to go to the north slope of Jinfo Mountain, although the north slope has a low tourist carrying capacity (west slope 9500, north slope 2500), but it's no pressure to go early, and the north slope is directly accessible by car to the cable car boarding point, the west slope has to enter the scenic area after🚌 Take the bus again in the scenic area (10 kilometers), so the north slope can save 40💰 bus money - 🐒There are a lot of little monkeys along the north slope, you can stop and watch!!! More importantly, there is a lot of snow along the north slope❄, you can enjoy the snow while driving, the scenery is much more beautiful than the west slope⚠ - The snow conditions on the mountain are good⛷ At present, both the north and west slopes of the ski resort have been opened, with world-class snow amusement facilities such as snow flying ships, snow flying saucers, snow karting, etc.🌟 Difference: the north slope has a slightly worse natural landscape, but it is not limited in time, there are many projects and fewer people; the west slope has a better scenery, but the ski resort charges by time, you can go as needed🤐 - 🍽About eating, because the things in the scenic area are generally more expensive than the mountain, but it is still acceptable, the best solution is to buy dry food at the foot of the mountain, solve it while playing, but the bacon bamboo shoot soup on the mountain, must, must, must have a serving, it is my favorite as a local, and the soup is unlimited, a bowl of ten yuan bamboo shoot soup➕ a sausage, is definitely the most refreshing experience in the snow watching process - 🌈Best tour time: three hours is enough, starting from the first station of the north slope: the world's first ancient Buddha cave, after entering, be sure to go to the left, the scenery there is what I think is the most beautiful scenery of the whole Jinfo Mountain, suddenly open, overlooking the mountains, instantly forget the troubles (locals go every year), then you can visit and watch along the way, in the Jinfo Temple must also go to see, the shooting location of 'Beijing Meets Seattle 2' (Golden Turtle Facing the Sun is also) - 🚌Finally, take a 10💰 bus back to the cable car boarding point, and return to the city. On the return journey, it is recommended to go to the foot of the mountain to soak in the hot springs, north slope: Jinshanquan Hot Spring Hotel, west slope: Tianxing Hot Spring Resort Hotel, can soak in the hot springs, drive away all the cold when watching the snow!!!♨ -

Nanchuan Golden Buddha Mountain Chongqing weekend | Hidden in the mountains Unexpectedly, Chongqing also has such homestays It's truly hidden in the mountains and living in the 'soup' Chongqing Golden Buddha Mountain Zhiman Hidden Mountain Resort Each room has a private soup and mountain view.
