After breakfast, I walked along the restaurant and came to the three-way intersection I passed yesterday. This time, I went north to the direction of Qinglong Mountain. I first passed the Qinglong Mountain Pier. I took a willow-leaf boat to go around Puzhehei. It felt like walking through a gallery. Yesterday, I saw a lively "water battle" between different boats, but the price was not very attractive.

We started climbing from the trailhead near Guanyin Cave. It rained the night before, so the stone steps were very slippery. Some of the stone steps were broken and narrow at some corners, so we had to be careful. The good thing was that the air was fresh. It took about an hour to climb to the top of the mountain. The mountain road was not well maintained, and there were vines entangled. The mountain was steep and it was not easy to climb. If you want to see the sunrise, you need to get up early to climb the mountain.

There are two viewing platforms on the back and front. From the northeast, north and west sides, you can see the isolated peaks on the dam, the fertile fields and houses in between, the blue sky and white clouds, and the spotless sky. From the south side, you can overlook the entire Caihuaqing, which is like a child held in the arms of the mountains, surrounded by mist and the lake below the mountain.

Go down the mountain along the original route and return to the trailhead. Turn left and there is an open space next to the Puzhehei Lake. You can sit on the shore and daydream, and feel this peaceful and far-reaching life before returning.

When we arrived at the entrance of Qinglong Mountain Scenic Area, even the staff were not at work. After entering the gate of the scenic area, there was a lake with many iron boats docked on the shore.

Climbing a mountain is a huge physical activity for me. I read in the guide that someone said that the old, weak, sick and disabled can reach the top in 20 minutes, which is a bit exaggerated. The mountain road is narrow and rugged, with tree roots underfoot and vines above my head. I used the flashlight of my mobile phone to light the way under my feet and walked forward. I was so tired that I was out of breath and had to rest twice on the way.

But after reaching the top, I found that the best position had already been occupied by people who arrived earlier. I could only stand on tiptoe on the rocks behind the crowd. I was afraid of being pushed down the mountain by the crowd, so I deliberately stuck my feet in the cracks of the rocks.

Behind the viewing platform facing the sunrise, there is another viewing platform facing the Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms scenic area, where you can overlook the panoramic view with a hint of morning glow!

Qinglong Mountain is the highest point of Puzhehei and the best place to watch the sunrise and sunset. In fact, the mountain is not very high. Even an old, weak, or disabled person like me only needs 20 minutes to reach the top. When you stand on Qinglong Mountain and overlook the whole view of Puzhehei, everything is worth it! I found a total of 5 viewing points on the mountain (2 artificial viewing platforms and 3 natural viewing points), 3 of which can see the sunrise. I suggest that friends go there and enjoy the scenery of Puzhehei from different angles, so that there will be no regrets.

Go to Qinglong Mountain in the north of the village, from where you can overlook the entire Puzhehei. The pier under Qinglong Mountain is also the end point of the scenic area's boating tour route.

Although Qinglong Mountain is not high, the view is indeed excellent, and the karst landform of the entire Puzhehei Scenic Area can be seen at a glance. After climbing to the top of Qinglong Mountain, I was deeply impressed by the beautiful scenery here.

By issues |

I heard that Qinglong Mountain in Puzhehei Village is a great place to overlook the entire Puzhehei scenery, so I embarked on this mountaineering journey with full expectations. Standing at the foot of the mountain and looking up, Qinglong Mountain stands tall, with lush vegetation like a green cloak covering the mountain layer by layer, and the top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, as if hiding an unknown secret, which makes me eager to explore it.



The climbing journey takes about 30 minutes (if you are physically fit, 20 minutes is no problem). Although the stone steps are a bit steep, the vegetation along the way is lush. Climbing all the way, breathing in the fresh air, every step is like hugging nature intimately. There is only one main road throughout the whole journey, so you don’t have to worry about getting lost. Just follow it and you can reach the top of the mountain viewing platform smoothly. Occasionally, you can come across a small stall selling mineral water on the road. It is unattended and you have to scan the code to pay consciously. The warmth brought by this trust also adds a different color to the journey.

If you come to Puzhehei, you must go to Qinglong Mountain to watch the sunrise and sunset. The top of the mountain is about 100 meters high and it takes about ten minutes to climb up. It is one of the 20 most beautiful scenic spots in Yunnan. It is truly worthy of the name in terms of sensory perception.

By Jiao Youyou |

The road to Qinglong Mountain is quite steep and not wide, but fortunately the mountain is not high and you can reach the top in half an hour. Compared with the Sanqing Mountain that I took you to climb last year, it is nothing compared to it!

By Ting-An |

There are multiple viewing platforms on Qinglong Mountain for watching sunrise and sunset, and you can take photos from different angles, but some viewing platforms are blocked by tree branches, limiting the view. There is only one road up and down the mountain, and there are no street lights. It takes 20 to 30 minutes to go up the mountain, and the road is relatively easy to walk.

By China-TravelNote users |

Qinglong Mountain, although the altitude is only 200-300 meters, it takes more than 20 minutes to climb. You must go! When you reach the top of the mountain, you can overlook the whole Puzhehei. The scenery is amazing! You must go to this mountain when you come to Puzhehei, you must go, you must go!

There are several viewing platforms on Qinglong Mountain, from which you can overlook the entire Puzhehei Scenic Area.

By Xiao Bing 88 |

There is a small hill in Puzhehei that you can climb, from which you can see the pastoral scenery. You can also watch the sunrise and sunset from the top.

By Run fast, run fast |

You can look around Puzhehei from the top of the mountain. It is more than 100 meters high and you won’t feel tired if you climb slowly.

By Ren Yuantaishan |

Qinglong Mountain is not very high. I never thought that I could have a complete view of the entire Puzhehei from a hill of such altitude. Its water pastoral, its lakes and peaks, and its various forms can be displayed without reservation. This is also an excellent sunrise viewing platform, and you have to go out at 5 o'clock.

By Maggie travel |

The Qinglong Mountain hiking trail is steep and does not require a ticket. Fortunately, the mountain is not high. Excluding the time for taking photos, it takes about 20 minutes to climb the mountain. There are three viewing platforms on the top of the mountain. One side has a panoramic view of Puzhehei and the other side has a panoramic view of Qingqiu (2). It is a good choice to go up the mountain to watch the sunset of Puzhehei.

By Potato's Inscription |

Qinglong Mountain is really worth a visit. Although climbing the mountain is tiring, it feels great to stand on the top of the mountain and overlook the entire Puzhehei Village. This mountain is worth climbing!

By Sunlight |

The climate here is mild and the scenery under the blue sky and white clouds is beautiful.

By On the Road |

We went early and it was the off-season, so we didn't see many people along the way. The hill is only about 100 meters high. Although we were out of breath after climbing up, we didn't feel very tired. When we looked around, we saw thick fog everywhere and the Puzhehei Village was vaguely visible.

By Eggplant Chelly |

Qinglong Mountain is not very high, and the stone steps are a bit steep, but even a slow climber can reach the top in half an hour. What's interesting is that there is such an advanced self-service beverage service on the top of the mountain by scanning the QR code; of course, the most important thing is to feel the amazing view of the mountains.

By SUNNYOUNG |

The reason you come to Puzhehei is to climb high, otherwise what's the point? It can't compare to the charm of the water town in Jiangsu, but climbing high and looking far away with the backdrop of the mountains makes a big difference.

By Through thick and thin |

Standing on Qinglong Mountain, the highest point in Puzhehei Scenic Area, you can overlook the whole Puzhehei. It is also the best place to watch the sunrise and sunset. However, the infrastructure is not perfect and the road is not easy to walk. There are many viewing platforms on it, but none of them are well-developed and unsafe.

By Puzhehei Cingjing Harajuku |

Nice view, worth coming back next time, Qingjing Harajuku is a good inn

We climbed up Qinglong Mountain. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to climb up. Come on, guys! The view from the top is really great.

By Liu Yoping |

Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, you can have a panoramic view of the beauty of Qingqiu. In addition to the pastoral scenery, you can also see the filming location of "Three Lives Three Worlds", which is only a very small piece.

By China-TravelNote user 333 |

Climb Qinglong Mountain. It is not high and you can climb it in 20 minutes. However, the mountain road is steep and it is not recommended to bring preschool children to climb. There are also rocks on the top, and there is no flat land. But the scenery is unique and you can see the panoramic view of Puzhehei.

By Martian User |

To be honest, the top of Qinglong Mountain is really a very, very worthwhile place to go! And I personally think it is the most worthwhile place to go in Puzhehei! Whether watching the sunset or the sunrise, it really feels like you have come to a small town in Europe. Although the mountain road is steep, it is short and takes less than 20 minutes to go up the mountain. And either come early or late, otherwise the perfect photo location will definitely be crowded and life-threatening. Because the viewing platform is too small~

By Gray and white orchid |

Around 5pm, I was going to climb Qinglong Mountain (although the sunset is at 7:30pm, I think it is quite appropriate to climb the mountain at 5pm, because the sunset seen on Qinglong Mountain will set behind the mountain. It is not the scene of watching the sun set little by little at the seaside, but watching the sunset and Puzhehei under the sunset is the key point, so if you go to climb the mountain around 7pm, the mountain road will be very dark). Although Qinglong Mountain can be climbed in half an hour, the mountain road is very narrow and a little shaky, so you should wear comfortable shoes. There is no light at night, so you can bring your own flashlight. . The scenery on the mountain is still majestic, and you can see the panoramic view of Puzhehei Village.

There are four viewing platforms on Qinglong Mountain. Once the sun sets behind the mountain, the scenery is completely different. Those who come late can only see the blue hour. The most important thing is that the mountain road is very dark at this time!

By One Day on Water 2010 |

The commanding height of the Puzhehei Scenic Area is the best place to enjoy the panoramic view and take photos. It is a must-visit attraction. There is no entrance fee, but the climb is a bit tiring.

After coming to Puzhehei, I feel that I have met it too late. It is so beautiful and full of fairy spirit. Here are some useful tips. First of all, in terms of transportation, the high-speed rail is recommended, but most of the starting points are at Kunming South Station, which is about an hour and a half away from the city center, so everyone must be careful. The high-speed rail at around 7 o'clock in the morning 🚄 needs to be taken with caution. The high-speed rail ticket is 75 yuan. After getting off the high-speed rail station, there is a bus station next to the scenic spot. The bus 🚌 is 5 yuan, and there are a lot of people. It is packed. The bus 🚍 has air conditioning and costs 10 yuan. There is one seat per person. You can choose it yourself. On the way back, there are stops in Puzhehei Village, Xianren Cave, and Swan Lake. However, don't walk too far out of the scenic area. The driver will not stop when it is full. The editor learned a lesson the hard way. #

Attractions: In fact, my favorite is the top of Qingqiu Mountain. Looking down, it feels like a paradise. The second is Swan Lake. There are really beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains on both sides, karst landforms, and endless lotus flowers. It is so beautiful and full of fairy air. The various caves are a bit ordinary and creepy, but the other lotus flowers are also good. The editor came in the wrong season. He should have come in June or July when the lotus flowers are in full bloom.

By Jade.J |

It just rained, the bottom is slippery, the stairs are a bit steep, not high. To be honest, the scenery is average, but the road from the inn to Qinglong Mountain is so beautiful! Don't rent an electric car, walk on the trail, the children who grew up in the city decided to be excited!

By Lilian |

The most enjoyable thing was boarding a boat to cruise the lake at Qinglongshan Pier today. We bought water guns, rented various buckets, and were ready to go. When we saw the passing cruise ships of equal strength, we started a thrilling battle. During the one-hour boat ride, everyone was soaked. In addition to the happy water fight, there were endless beautiful scenery to see.

By Cotton is warm |

I climbed to the top of the mountain alone and looked out. The beauty of Puzhehei was in full view! Mountains of different shapes, fields in all directions, and the shining lake appeared before my eyes!

By Meat Bag on the Road |

To watch the sunrise at Qinglong Mountain, it is recommended to book a car in advance, as the road is dark and difficult to walk on. The clouds were too thick and we did not see the sunrise.

By April |

Qinglong Mountain is a good place to take pictures of sunrise and sunset, but you can't take pictures of sunrise and sunset on rainy days, but gray tones can also capture the beauty of gray tones. Walk in after passing Qinglong Wharf, see the words "mountain climbing tour road", and start climbing. The mountain is not high, but the steps are still a little steep, winding all the way up, which is a bit physically demanding. An aunt who was coming down the mountain looked at me panting and said, "It takes half an hour to climb the mountain and five minutes to take pictures." But the top of the mountain always gives you a wider view, and I think it's worth it. On one side of the top of Qinglong Mountain, you can see the village and the wharf below. The green mountains, green waters and red houses complement each other, forming a beautiful pastoral landscape painting.

Many people stand on a stone to take pictures, like on the edge of a cliff, facing the distance, with their arms outstretched, leaving their backs to the camera. But it is still a bit steep, so be careful. Move to the other side of the top of the mountain and you can see Qingqiu from afar.

By Lone Walker |

The mountain is not high, and you can climb it in 20 minutes. You can see the whole view of Puzhehei. The scenery is nice and worth going up, but you are basically exhausted after going up and down. We went there by chartering a car, which was relatively easy. 153 9498 3626 Master He, you can find him when you go there! He is a very good person! We went there for two days, one day in Puzhehei and one day in Shede. The time arrangement was just right, not too much and not too rushed!

By Suhai |

Qinglong Mountain is about ten minutes' walk from Puzhehei Village. It is considered a relatively mature area in Puzhehei, with complete facilities (road signs, public toilets, etc.).

The whole mountain is not high and the road condition is relatively good. It takes about 20 minutes to reach the top.

There are 4 viewing platforms on the mountain, with four different angles. The sunset viewing platform is a bit difficult to find. You need to reach the top of the mountain, go down the other side and then go up again. It's a bit like reaching another small hill. It is recommended that you find them all before leaving, otherwise you will regret it.

It seems like I have seen it many times in many places. I also joked with my friends that everyone who came to Qinglong Mountain took the same photos. But when you climb and stand at the highest point of the mountain, feeling the cool breeze, looking at the peaceful scenery, lakes and mountains, and smoke curling in the village; looking into the distance, there are mountains beyond mountains, one after another; in the direction of the sunset, you can also see the big windmills on the Shede grassland... The inner sigh is: No matter how many beautiful scenery you have seen in your life, they are not as good as this moment.



You can roughly know the time of sunset through the weather app on your phone. Because there is a small hill in front of Qinglong Mountain, the actual time needs to be a little earlier. There are already many tourists gathered on the sunset viewing platform waiting to capture the moment of sunset, but because it is the off-season, it will not feel crowded at all, and there is no need to worry about not getting a good position.

The time waiting for the sunset is long, but you can't be distracted, otherwise it is easy to miss the moment of sunset.

It is in the Puzhehei scenic area, very close. The mountain is not very high, and it may take about 20 minutes to climb to the top, where you can take a panoramic view of Puzhehei Village. At 5 or 6 pm, there will be long guns and short guns occupying the terrain to take pictures of the sunset. There is a snack street at the foot of Qinglong Mountain. Barbecue, crayfish, snails, the taste is pretty good, and the price is cheap. I strongly recommend grilled bait blocks, drunken shrimps, charcoal grilled veal, and corn cakes sold by old ladies on the roadside. By the way, the lotus roots here are especially delicious. No matter which store you go to, no matter what flavor, they are all delicious. Don't miss it.

By A good person like me |

Puzhehei is the first choice for taking photos from a high place, with beautiful sunrises and sunsets. The beauty of Puzhehei is even more impressive when viewed from a high place, so climbing to the top of Qinglong Mountain is a must. The way to the top is relatively easy to walk, and 20 minutes is enough for those with good physical strength, and 30 minutes if you climb slowly. There are several viewing platforms on the top of the mountain, some of which have better views and less obstruction, but the viewing platforms are relatively small, so you have to queue up when there are many people.

By Drizzle Dad |

You must go up this mountain. If you want to save energy, you must go up and down the same road. I will write the details in the travel notes.

The rolling mountains and lotus pond, blue sky and white clouds are truly masterpieces of nature. It is so pleasant to see someone sitting on a chair fishing in the lotus pond. Walking into the pond, you will pass through a cornfield, and then walk a short distance to the filming location of the TV series, which is a few fake peach blossoms on an isolated island, a thatched shed and a stone table and stone chairs. This is where Bai Qian ascended to the Qingqiu of the Goddess.

Why are the pictures uploaded from wx distorted? :(

The climb is quite steep, but the path is not bad. My 5-year-old baby walked the entire way up and down the mountain by himself (I had to carry him for the last 100 meters, but he persevered).

There are several viewing points, two of which are for watching the sunset, and the one in the south is more suitable. But the place is very small and the uncles and aunts have no manners at all!! (not general).

You can see Puzhehei from Qinglong Mountain. This is an excellent place to look down at Puzhehei, with green mountains, green waters and beautiful karst scenery.

By lxltyhty |

Qinglong Mountain does not require tickets. It is located to the west of Puzhehei Village, surrounded by water on three sides, with lake water as its blood and plants as its hair. It can be said that the mountain lives with water, flourishes with plants, and has lush shrubs. It is really hard to climb to the top of the mountain. The mountain is not actually high, but it is still laborious to climb. Puzhehei Village, the attractions of Three Lives Three Worlds, and the karst landforms can all be seen here, but the lush branches and leaves of the trees almost block this small window of vision.

By Travel and Photography Without Borders |

We climbed to the top of the mountain in the dark at around 5 o'clock in the morning to watch the sunrise. The scenery was spectacular.

By JoJo Jiang |

Climbing the mountain is free. You can see the village when you reach the top of the mountain. There are several viewing platforms on the top of the mountain. There are two roads to go. Just choose one to go up and the other to go down. The mountain is not high but the road is rugged, so pay attention to safety!

By ∴Pepsi√Cola |

An excellent spot for watching the sunset and sunrise. If you come to Puzhehei and don’t go to Qinglong Mountain, it means you haven’t been to Puzhehei! !

How can I put it? It could just be the wrong season. The whole trip in Puzhehei was not as good as expected. The right season should give a different experience.

There are two entrances to Qinglong Mountain. When you reach the foot of Qinglong Mountain, you will first encounter a large area for eating. Follow the road at the foot of the mountain and you will see the first entrance. Qinglong Mountain is relatively easy to climb. People with good physical strength can even climb the mountain in more than 20 minutes. The other entrance needs to continue walking along the road at the foot of the mountain until you walk out of the merchant shed where you eat. There is a lake on the right. If you continue walking, you can see it. The entrance is marked with "Moon Cave Exit". The scenery of the first viewing platform is similar to that of the last viewing platform, but it is more obstructed and the angle is slightly worse. Continue walking along the road at the top of the mountain and you will see the second viewing platform. It is a renovated viewing platform facing west. You can take pictures of the sunset, and the second viewing platform is the best place to take pictures of the sunset! Although you can also watch the sunset from the third viewing platform, there are a lot of plants around the viewing platform. The viewing platform is small in space. If you want to take pictures of the sunset, you must grab a position in advance. Continue walking along the road and you will see the third viewing platform, which has a similar angle to the second viewing platform and also faces west. However, due to many obstructions, it is not suitable for photographing the sunset.

The fourth viewing platform is in the same position as the third viewing platform, back to back, and facing east. It is also the best place to take photos of the sunrise. You need to walk down the renovated viewing platform. There is a relatively flat rocky area on the left hand side, which is the best place to take photos of the sunrise. Since the space is not very large, there are only about 3 good camera positions. You need to go up the mountain early to take photos of the sunrise.

Walk down the steps next to the fourth viewing platform and you will reach the climbing route at the Moon Cave exit without having to go back.

Qinglong Mountain is free. You can see the scenery of Puzhehei just by climbing up the mountain. Qinglong Mountain is not high and you can climb it in about 20 minutes. The scenery is first-class.

By @_- Helin |

Because it was cloudy and too cold to adapt, I didn't eat or sleep well, so I climbed to the first viewing platform and couldn't go up. The scenery was gray and I didn't think it was anything special.

I heard from the locals that it is one of the best places to watch the panoramic view of Puzhehei and the sunrise and sunset. There is no entrance fee, the scenery is good, and there are several viewing platforms on the top. Due to weather reasons, I didn’t see the sunrise and sunset, but it was good to watch the panoramic view of Puzhehei.

By Chu Xiaoyu |

If you go to Puzhehei Village, you must climb down Qinglong Mountain. The view from the mountain is really beautiful. The mountain road is narrow, so it is recommended to go with a companion.

The scenery is pretty good but there are too many people! You can take a boat trip, or you can take a horse-drawn carriage to travel around!

By Han Xiaoshe |

It takes half an hour to climb up, and I am exhausted, but it is worth it to see the beautiful scenery at the bottom of the mountain. It makes me feel better and I am not tired anymore. The photos are made with effects, but I think what I see is more beautiful than the paintings.

By Fuyu Travel East |

Qinglong Mountain is a small mountain, which has not been developed and is relatively primitive. There are 5 observation decks! The scenery seen from each observation deck is different because of the different angles. There is an observation deck where you can watch the sunrise and one where you can watch the sunset. The panoramic view of Puzhehei is really beautiful! I wrote a guide and travel notes. For details, please follow the official account "Dongmei" or add vx: zdmmay66

Qinglong Mountain is located about 600 meters west of Puzhehei Village, on the southwest bank of Puzhehei Lake. The main peak is 1,555 meters above sea level, 108 meters above the lake. The bushes on it are lush and green all year round. Qinglong Mountain is surrounded by water on three sides, majestic and beautiful. There are 8 karst caves in the mountain, including Torch Cave, Moon Cave, Zhangzui Stone Cave, etc. Follow the stone path to the Qinglong Mountain Observation Deck, where you can enjoy all the beautiful scenery that nature has bestowed on Puzhehei. Qinglong Mountain is the best place to overlook the whole view of Puzhehei and take pictures of sunrise and sunset.

It's worth a walk. It takes about 40 minutes from going up the mountain to going down the mountain. The stairs are steep, but you can overlook the entire Puzhehei, which is very beautiful.

From Qinglong Mountain you can see the panoramic view of Puzhehei Lake and Qingqiu in the back, which is the filming location of "Three Lives, Three Worlds".

By Pan |

The best place to view the panoramic view of Puzhehei. The mountain is not high and there are four viewing points.

By Duoduo |

Qinglong Mountain is the best place to see the panoramic view of Puzhehei. It is not high and easy to climb. If you want to see the sunrise, you have to get up at 5 o'clock to climb the mountain. There are two climbing routes, one near Guanyin Cave and the other near Moon Cave. Generally, you go up from one and go down from the other. There are two viewing platforms on the top, and you should watch the sunrise and sunset at the same time. At the sunset viewing platform, you can see the filming location of Eternal Love, and a few fake peach blossoms are scattered there for people to visit.

Turn right from the Puzhe Sunshine Inn and you will find a mini square not far away. The left side leads to the filming location of the TV series "Three Lives Three Worlds"; the right side leads to Qinglong Mountain, and taking pictures of the sunset at the top of Qinglong Mountain is the only choice for almost every photography enthusiast.

It was around 4 p.m. at that time, and I planned to go to the filming location first, and then climb Qinglong Mountain when it was getting dark.

Qinglong Mountain is in the opposite direction of the filming location of Eternal Love.

I had taken enough photos, so I hurried out, followed the original route back to the small square and headed to the other side. After walking for 5 or 6 minutes, I saw a large area of ​​shanties, and below them were snack stalls prepared by locals for tourists. It was a simple food street.

Across this street is the entrance to Qinglong Mountain.

Qinglong Mountain is not high (mountains in the south are not high), and it takes less than half an hour to hike up. However, it was quite strenuous for me to carry heavy photographic equipment, especially when the sun was shining brightly outside and the mountain road was dark and damp, which made my eyes uncomfortable.

The top of the mountain was different from what I imagined. There were no proper camera positions. The best views were all on the big rocks. People would sway when standing on them, let alone a tripod. I stood on the rocks, trying to keep my balance, and took a few photos before the sun completely disappeared.

By GNUMTB |

Qinglong Mountain is a great place for viewing the scenery and one of the must-see attractions in Puzhehei. The mountain is also not difficult to climb.

You must go up Qinglong Mountain. The whole view of Puzhehei from the observation deck is very beautiful. I feel that this is the most beautiful view in Puzhehei. The climb up is not as fast as I have seen before. It is not very high. Anyway, we walked and climbed slowly. It took about an hour and a half to go up and down the mountain, which is plenty of time. There are not many people. We don’t have to go back and forth. There are lush trees all the way, but the scenery is only good at those observation decks. There are three places to see in total.

Qinglong Mountain is worth going to. Although many people sweated and rested constantly when climbing the mountain, and didn't know where the end was, just when you made up your mind to climb, hey, you reached the top. In fact, it's not that high, 15 minutes is enough to reach the top of the mountain. I started climbing from the place where there are many small vendors, and then went down the other side of the mountain. There are two viewing points on the other side, which are all good photography points. Don't go back the same way, otherwise you will miss the beautiful scenery. At the top of the mountain, I heard some tour guides not letting us go to the other side and said exaggeratedly that the other way would take three hills. In fact, the tour guide just wanted tourists to go down the mountain quickly. The other way down the mountain is to the Qinglong Mountain Pier, next to the entrance to the Torch Cave, which is very convenient. There is too much garbage on the way to climb the mountain. Many stones have painted words to remind tourists to be hygienic, but so many people throw plastic bags, mineral water bottles, and paper towels. My son and I reached the top of the mountain. There are trash cans at the viewing point, but there is still a lot of garbage on the ground. My son is still picking up garbage with his own small fishing net, but it's a pity that no tourist noticed it. We often teach our children not to litter, but how many of us can set an example for our children by doing it ourselves?

You can see the whole Puzhehei village from the top of the mountain. You can only walk up the mountain, which takes about 20 minutes. The scenery is stunning.

Qinglong Mountain is a good place to watch the sunrise and sunset in Puzhehei

You must climb Qinglong Mountain when you go to Puzhehei. The view from the top is very broad. On one side, you can have an overview of the Puzhehei Village, and on the other side, you can have a panoramic view of the attractions including the Three Lives and Three Worlds. Only by climbing up can you truly feel what karst landforms are. Maybe many people who go there take a boat, or visit as many attractions as possible, so they don’t want to go through the trouble of climbing Qinglong Mountain. Only after climbing up will you know that it doesn’t take much time, and the scenery along the way is also very beautiful.

When going to Puzhehei, you naturally have to go to Qinglong Mountain to watch the sunrise and sunset. It takes less than an hour to get up the mountain, and the scenery on the top of the mountain is quite beautiful.

The filming location of Eternal Love is Qingqiu. It is really called Qingqiu. It depends on who you come with and whether you find the beauty here.

There are 4 viewing platforms on Qinglong Mountain, and 2 mountain roads leading to the top of the mountain. It is recommended to go up the mountain from the Qinglong Mountain Pier and go down the mountain from the market. The scenery taken from the viewing platform is the panoramic view of Qingqiu Kingdom in the opening of "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms". It is really beautiful when the weather is good.

We climbed up Qinglong Mountain the next day and were able to take in the beautiful scenery at a glance.

I came on March 19th during the off-season. I climbed Qinglong Mountain for two consecutive days but didn't see the ideal sunrise. The clouds were too thick and I couldn't see the golden sunrise. But the scenery in front and behind Qinglong Mountain is really beautiful. In front is Puzhehei, and behind is Caihuajing, which is the filming location of Eternal Love.

Maybe it's not the lotus season. The attractions are ordinary. The tickets are not worth it. Especially the boating fee of 200 yuan, don't go. It's just floating on the lake for an hour under the sun. There are no attractions. The women rowing the boats are unhappy and ask us to row harder from time to time. Anyway, Puzhehei is black.

It's nice to take pictures of the sunset. ...

It is a good place to watch the sunrise and sunset from a low mountain. Some photography enthusiasts will carry their equipment and wait here.

Standing on Qinglong Mountain, you can overlook the whole view of Puzhehei. It is also the best place to watch the sunrise and sunset. The small boats on the mountain look like stick insects crawling slowly in the river.
