Live Your Best Lives
The West Coast is located in the west of Sanqing Mountain. It is known as the "home of clouds and mist, and the gallery of pine and stone". It is the most open scenic spot in Sanqing Mountain, with an average altitude of 1,600 meters. Sanqing Mountain was submerged by sea water three times, and the West Coast was the coastline at that time. There are four wonders on the West Coast: high-altitude plank road, sea of clouds, Grand Canyon and ancient trees. The scenic area starts from the fork 50 meters after Liuxiatai in the south and ends at Hanxing Pond in Sanqing Palace Scenic Area in the north. The tour line is about 4km, of which 3,600m has no steps. The walking trail consists of the highest and longest mountain plank road in China. On the plank road on the cliffs of the West Coast, you can often see the sea of clouds. When you are on the West Coast, you can stroll on the cliffs and see the magnificent sea of clouds, the magnificent sunset, the continuous peaks and the deep canyon from afar. The weather is extraordinary, and you feel like a hermit riding the clouds.

The West Coast Scenic Area is the most open viewing area of Sanqing Mountain. At an average altitude of 1,600 meters, there is a 4-kilometer-long plank road, the highest and longest in the country. There is no step on the plank road. You can walk on the cliffs and appreciate the continuous peaks and deep canyons. The sunset seen on the platform near the West Coast Glass Plank Road is extremely shocking. The sunset glow under the sunset can bring endless reverie. The moment you press the shutter will be the most beautiful memory of this life.
There are four wonders on the West Coast: the high-altitude plank road, the sea of clouds, the Grand Canyon and the ancient trees.

The scenery is extraordinary and you feel like a hermit riding the clouds.
The south coast of Sanqing Mountain is very beautiful. The plank road line is the longest plank road in Sanqing Mountain, about 6 kilometers long. The scenery along the south coast is captured below!
I didn't take any photos on the west coast. I just kept walking and walking until I started to doubt my life. Many old masters would come here to take photos before the sun sets. There is a long downstairs road near the end of the "Sunrise Platform".
The view here is excellent, the scenery is magnificent, and it is surrounded by mountains. It is also a good place to watch the sunset.

I went there once in 2006. At that time, I had to go back to the west coast. This time I went there specifically to see the sunset and sunrise. I saw the sunset, but I was unlucky and didn't see the sunset glow in the sky. The next day, I went to the Nanqingyuan scenic area. There was heavy fog, huge fog! I didn't see anything, I didn't see anything.
In the evening, the West Coast Plank Road is a great place to enjoy the sunset of Sanqing Mountain. Watching the red sun slowly setting, we were so excited that we forgot the fatigue of a day's hike...
The blue sky during the day was dyed into deep red, orange, light yellow and other colors by the setting sun, which was dazzling...
Sanqing Mountain is a famous Taoist mountain. Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty built a hut here to make elixirs and spread Taoism. Taoism really flourished in Sanqing Mountain after the Tang Dynasty. During the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty, Taoist Zhan Biyun, who was in charge of the affairs of Sanqing Palace, presided over the construction of a large number of buildings, which have been preserved to this day. I arrived at Sanqing Mountain in the morning. In the morning, I would not be exposed to the sun when walking on the west line, and I would not be backlit when taking photos. In the afternoon, I would not be exposed to the sun when walking back, of course, unless I am not afraid of the dark.
The West Coast starts from the west side of Rishang Villa in Tiyunling in the south and ends at the southwest side of Hanxing Pool in Sanqing Palace Scenic Area in the north. The tour line is nearly 4 kilometers long. It is the longest, flattest and most visually extensive Lingkongyun Pavilion and Scenic Corridor in Sanqing Mountain and even in the world.
The scenery of the West Coast is similar to that of the Sunshine Coast. Both are based on plank roads and offer views of the mountains. However, I personally think the mountains on the West Coast are more beautiful than those on the Sunshine Coast. And because it faces west, watching the sunset here is also a great sight. Unfortunately, the haze was severe that day and affected the sunset.
This place is a plank road, not difficult to walk, I walked around for more than two hours, and did not rest much, much more comfortable than Nanqing Park. Although it is called the coast, but I did not see the water, why is it called the coast, I do not know, haha.
This snow scene is somewhat different from the one I saw on the Sunshine Coast. The plank roads here are frozen in many places and are narrow. I didn’t feel anything when I was walking, but when I looked back at the video I recorded, I found it a bit thrilling.
On the way back, I saw from afar a person standing on a mountain. I was startled. When I looked again, I found out it was a stone. There looked like a wizard in a gray robe (was it Gandalf~~) standing there.
On the way back, we finally waited for the sunset. The sunset with the snow scene was quite spectacular.
The West Coast Scenic Area is like a fairyland in the fog.
The West Coast Skywalk is built on a cliff about 1,600 meters above sea level, and is the best place to watch the sunset.
The West Coast is located in the west of Sanqing Mountain. It is the most open scenic spot in Sanqing Mountain, with an average altitude of 1,600 meters. Sanqing Mountain was submerged by sea water three times, and the West Coast was the coastline at that time. The scenic area starts from the fork 50 meters after Liuxiatai in the south and ends at Hanxing Pond in Sanqing Palace Scenic Area in the north. The tour route is about 4 kilometers, of which 3,600 meters is without steps. The walking trail consists of the highest and longest alpine plank road in the country. When you are on the West Coast, you can stroll leisurely on the cliffs and watch the magnificent sea of clouds, the magnificent sunset, the continuous peaks, and the deep canyons from afar. The scenery is extraordinary.
From the Sunshine Coast Scenic Area, passing the Sanqing Palace, you will enter the West Coast Scenic Area. Most of this area is on the shady side of the mountain, so there is no strong sunlight, and the light mist floating in the mountains makes the mountains and valleys here have a clear sense of layering, showing the flavor of ink painting; the joints and shapes of various granite rocks are also more clearly reflected here. The "Monkey King Watching Treasures", one of the ten great views of Sanqing Mountain, is here; there are also famous landscapes such as "Guanyin Delivering a Child" and "Prodigy Carrying Pine Trees".
I think it is the most beautiful scenic spot in Sanqing Mountain. I sent the picture to my friend and thought it was Huangshan. Hahaha. The plank road is easy to walk on and relatively flat. But it may also be because I was still in the climbing stage at that time, so I was not tired yet.
A good place to watch the sunset. Look at my photos. There are pine trees dotted here.
It's a very good place to watch the sunset. Having been to so many mountains, I think the sunset here is incredible and rich. It's different at different times, and the sea of clouds is beautiful.
The west coast is different from Huangshan. The plank road is very flat and the scenery is very nice.
Fortunately, I can walk and take pictures at the same time because it is not dangerous at all.
The dizzy high-altitude plank road made me, a person with a fear of heights, really dare not look far away. I didn’t finish the whole journey, so I took the cable car back down. The scenery was really beautiful, but I was not as timid as my eldest son ~ haha
Although it is in the clouds and fog and cannot be seen from a distance, it is still very beautiful up close.
The light and shadows at sunset on the west coast are particularly beautiful.
In the West Coast Scenic Area, you can sometimes encounter turquoise rocks, sometimes be accompanied by insects and birds, and sometimes disappear in the clouds. It is very interesting.
The west coast must be visited in the evening, the sunset here is very beautiful.
The West Coast Scenic Area is a famous scenic area in Sanqing Mountain.
Walking on the plank road on the mountain wall and admiring the scenery is a refreshing experience.
The west coast is very suitable for watching the sunset, and the view is very good. The plank road is well built, and it feels very comfortable to walk on it under the sunset.
It's really beautiful! The plank road is shrouded in clouds and mist. From time to time, you can see squirrels and various birds. It's still cool in summer. You can see the itinerary in my travel notes
The coastal scenic area is a newly developed plank road scenic area in Sanqing Mountain. The entire west coast plank road is built along the rock wall. Tourists can enjoy the view from the plank road. There is a cliff thousands of feet below the plank road, which is very thrilling. In fact, the plank road is very safe.
Sanqingshan must-see scenic spot, 1600 meters above sea level high-altitude plank road, no steps, as if walking on flat ground, free and easy. If you play in the afternoon on the west coast, in addition to seeing the strange peaks and rocks, you can also see the sunset on the return trip.
The scenery is good, watching the sunset is also something worth looking forward to
On July 9th, we visited most of the scenic spots in Sanqing Mountain in one day. It was foggy when we walked on the plank roads on both coasts, and it felt like entering a fairyland.
It is said that you have to go to Sanqing Mountain three times to see its full picture. This time I went there it was so foggy that I couldn’t see anything clearly. This statement really came true. However, the air is really fresh. It was great to breathe some oxygen here for the past six months.
Among all the famous mountains and rivers I have visited, Sanqing Mountain is the most worthy of its reputation, especially the west coast which is the most beautiful.
The most famous one is the Goddess Hotel, which is the summary of all the classics of the West Coast, but also its essence. Walking on the long sky plank road on the West Coast, you can see the valley in the distance undulating like waves.
The west coast is the sea level where the sea used to submerge Sanqing Mountain. It is located on the west side of Sanqing Mountain. There is an artificial plank road where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Sanqing Mountain. You can go up from the southern cableway and then go up. There is a place where the monkey king presents treasures. It is a good place to watch the sunset. Going to the right through Yusonglin is the Sunshine Coast, and continuing forward is Sanqing Palace.
The weather was not very good that day, it was cloudy. I took the Sanqingshan South bus from Yushan Bus Station for 18 yuan. I walked the whole way after getting off the bus. The scenery of the west coast must be great on a sunny day.
The feeling of connecting Sanqing Palace and Sunshine Coast.. The high-altitude plank road on the west coast is said to be several thousand meters long, a must-see attraction
I was quite shocked when I climbed up the West Coast Scenic Area. It was the first time I saw the overlapping mountains, the rolling hills, looming in the distance in the mist, like a Chinese landscape painting. The West Coast must be one of the classic scenic spots in Sanqing Mountain.
2016.1.20 The most beautiful scenic spot in Sanqing Mountain. Fortunately, the fog dissipated, giving my father and I about 2 hours to enjoy the scenery. After 2 hours, the fog returned and it started to rain.
Super dangerous, super beautiful, super crowded, great.
Some things and scenery are unique and cannot be seen anywhere else. This is beauty!
Compared with Wanshou Garden Scenic Area, Sunshine Coast Scenic Area and Nanqing Garden Scenic Area, it is slightly inferior.
When we went there, we caught the sunset and stayed in a cabin on the top of the mountain for one night. The next morning, there was a heavy fog and the mountains were shrouded in clouds and mist, which was a unique scenery!
Although I didn’t hear the roaring clouds on the west coast, I was very impressed by the scenery both in the evening and during the day. There were squirrels waiting for you to feed at the Feixian Valley Pavilion. The feeling of the pink cloud fantasy valley was just like what I described in the title of my travel notes: “My heart dances with the pink clouds, my eyes melt with the halo, and I walk along the longest alpine plank road in China. It’s like heaven on earth. I have long forgotten where I am and just want to enjoy this dreamlike fantasy”...
Several girls watched the sunset and exclaimed, "What beautiful clouds! It's right to come to Xihai. It's worth it today!" I give a thumbs up to myself on the first day of 2015! It's really beautiful. I was so happy that I couldn't help but look back after walking a few steps and kept looking and taking pictures. At this moment, I don't want to use any words to describe it. I just want to quietly enjoy the fireworks that nature has bloomed for me. It's brilliant and melted in my heart...
The fog was so thick that day that I couldn't see clearly even a few steps away. The mountains and trees in the mist were even more unique, and the scenery was different at every moment.
This is the most beautiful of the newly built plank roads in Sanqing Mountain. The plank road is very flat, just like walking on flat ground, which is better than strolling in a garden. When you are on the high-altitude plank road, you can see the boundless beauty. The light is particularly good when walking on this plank road in the afternoon, which is conducive to photography.
All the way from the Sunshine Coast Scenic Area to the West Coast, the scenery along the way is so unforgettable!
There are steep cliffs and deep canyons. People who are afraid of heights are not recommended to go there. On the way, I met a couple. The older woman was afraid of heights and walked along the cliffs. Later, she returned.
The main thing is that there are many strangely shaped stones, which make you marvel at the magic of nature.
The west coast starts from the fork in the road 50 meters after Liuxiatai in the south and ends at the southwest side of Hanxingchi in Sanqing Palace Scenic Area in the north. It has an average altitude of about 1,600 meters, a total length of about 4 kilometers, and a width of only 1.3-2 meters. From a distance, it looks like a jade belt wrapped around the Lingxiao cliffs. It is the most thrilling and beautiful scenic spot in Sanqing Mountain.
When you go to Sanqing Mountain, you must visit the West Coast Scenic Area, the scenery there is really magnificent.
The West Coast, also known as the West Sea Plank Road, is located in the west of Sanqing Mountain. On the cliffs of a mountain about 1,600 meters above sea level, a reinforced concrete plank road with a total length of about 3,700 meters and a width of 1.3 to 2 meters is cantilevered outward. Because there are no steps for 2,700 meters, it is like a jade belt and as flat as a shore, so it is named the West Coast.
Walking on the plank road is a very pleasant experience; the scenery is sometimes clear, sometimes rainy, sometimes foggy, and sometimes clear!
The West Coast Scenic Area is the most thrilling and beautiful scenic area in Sanqing Mountain.
It was already quite cold on the mountain, probably less than 10 degrees, but luckily I was wearing a windbreaker.
It was just the moment when the sun was setting, and the interweaving of light and shadow made people reluctant to leave.
One of the highlights, the plank road is very beautiful, and the most important thing is that when we walked in the afternoon, there were almost no people, it was very quiet and nice.
The "West Coast" is the best area to watch the sunset, but unfortunately we arrived here at noon, and there was a little bit of fog and sea in the distance!
The West Coast is truly a painting that stretches for thousands of miles, condensing every scene of Sanqing Mountain in it. It is as if you are walking in the painting, with changing scenery as you move. The mountains are still, the clouds are moving, the wind is clear, and the air is fresh.
The sunset on the west coast is the most beautiful part of the trip to Sanqing Mountain. The sunset dyed the whole sky pink, and the colorful clouds floated above the mountains, matched with the nearby yellow pines, it was magnificent! For details, please check my travel notes~ Sanqing Mountain, you are an infinitely magnified bonsai garden (go as you like, including hidden route recommendations) http://www.mafengwo.cn/i/3458630.html
After getting down to the west coast from the Sunrise Hotel, it was still very easy to walk on the plank road.
When I woke up in the morning, I saw the sea of clouds. It was indescribable. I could only say it was so beautiful.
The West Coast Scenic Area is located in Sanqing Mountain, also known as the Sunshine West Coast. It has an excellent viewing angle and is a good place to capture the sunset with your camera.
The west coast is the highlight of Sanqing Mountain, where you can watch the sunset and the clouds. . . .
The highest and most precipitous plank road in the world, winding through the mountains, is a place where people can get close to the beautiful scenery of the fairy mountains. Walking on the plank road on the west coast, I really felt my heart was weak and my legs were weak. I was both afraid and curious. It was really exciting.
Standing on the west coast, strolling on the cliffs, you can see the magnificent sea of clouds, the magnificent sunset, the continuous peaks, and the deep canyon. It is a rare experience to walk on the high-altitude plank road at an altitude of more than 1,600 meters, with cliffs and primeval forests on one side, a deep canyon on the other side, and continuous mountains in the distance, overlooking the Grand Canyon from the plank road.
The West Coast Scenic Area is the most breathtaking and beautiful scenic area in Sanqing Mountain. The West Coast starts from the fork 130 meters above the west side of Rishang Mountain Villa in Tiyunling in the south, and ends at the southwest side of Hanxing Pond in Sanqing Palace Scenic Area in the north. The total length of the tour line is nearly 4 kilometers.
We were lucky on the day we went there. It had rained the day before, but it was sunny the next day. We went up the mountain early and saw the sea of clouds from afar. It is best to stay at the foot of the mountain the day before so that you can go up the mountain early the next day, otherwise there will be a lot of people if you are late.
The West Coast is really beautiful. Remember to go there in the afternoon. The sun shines on you. It's very pleasant.
The mountains are high, the roads are misty and rainy, I return to the west coast at dusk, the sun rises in the east at dawn, --- Without lofty ambitions, how can I dare to climb high and look far?
We walked along the West Coast Scenic Area, and our destination was the Sanqing Palace camping. The West Coast Scenic Area is an aerial plank road (a walkway built halfway up the mountain). I was very scared at first, mainly because of my fear of heights! After walking for a while, it became less scary!
There are many tour groups heading to the west coast, and the mountain roads are often blocked, which seriously affects our progress up the mountain. We have encountered many middle-aged and elderly tourists who gave up going down the mountain due to inconvenience in their legs and feet. However, there are also many young people in big cities who are used to sitting in the office and give up after walking a few steps on the mountain road. I still feel a little contempt for them. As the saying goes, wait until the clouds clear and you will see the moon. Seeing the photos of the west coast below, I think everyone will be motivated to lift their legs and climb up, haha~ Please enjoy the scenery brought by Milkshake 5R~
The West Coast is more beautiful if you go there in the afternoon!
Sitting at the place where Wukong watches treasures, waiting for the sunset. I met three friends here, and they gave me company to watch the sunrise the next day. I also had someone to take pictures for me~Haha, it’s a luxury to go out alone and take pictures with the beautiful scenery~
