Day 1 Nanjing → Qingyang → Tianzhu Xianzong Loop
06:00
From 6:45 to 7:00, we will gather and sign in at Exit 1 of Andemen Station, Line 1 of Nanjing Metro, when we see the yellow China-TravelNote flag.
07:00
Depart at 7:00 sharp. On the bus, the tour leader will arrange for everyone to introduce themselves, play interactive games, and have fun all the way!
11:00
Transfer to a small bus and begin the Tianzhu Xianzong Line. Soon, you'll arrive at Tianzhu Xianzong, one of Jiuhua's Ten Scenic Spots. This scenic area is centered around Tianzhu Peak. It's located in the back mountains of Jiuhua, southwest of Cuifeng. Surrounded by peaks and overlapping rock formations, it's relatively undeveloped and a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. According to the Jiuhua Mountain Chronicle, "Tianzhu Peak rises a thousand feet, like a pillar leaning against the sky. It is the highest peak in the southeast."
12:30
We continued along the ridge meadows until we reached another scenic spot in Jiuhua: Camel Viewing the Sea. Located in Qingqiao Bay, southeast of Cuifeng Peak on Zhubei Mountain's rear, this peak resembles a Bactrian camel. Standing atop the peak, you can gaze north over the sea of clouds at Lianfeng Peak, a prime vantage point. Surrounding the peak are Lianhua Peak, Tianzhu Peak, Wulao Peak, and Yuzeng Peak, offering breathtaking scenery.
6:00 PM
After a hard day's hike down the mountain to the farmhouse, the authentic Anhui cuisine is even more delicious and sweet! Take a break.
Day 2 Qingyang County → Daguling Ancient Trail → Maowan Peak → Huatai → Nanjing
07:00
Get up on time for breakfast
07:30
We arrived at the starting point of the hike and went up the mountain via Daguling. The terrain of Daguling is dangerous, with strange peaks and rocks everywhere. It is still an undeveloped virgin land. Backpackers often go up the mountain from here. It is also an ancient Huidao where literati, merchants and believers go back and forth for business and to pray on the mountain. There are road pavilions, rock carvings, ancient temple ruins, and rock formations. It is one of the best-preserved ancient Huidao in Jiuhua Mountain.
09:00
Arrive at Huatai, named for its abundant mountain flowers. The characteristic granite rocks are beautifully varied in shape. Free time to relax and have lunch. Then, gather at a convenient time to descend Maowan Peak.
Maowan Peak is formed by a cat and a bowl, resembling a jade cat peeping at its food. As the altitude gradually rises, away from the bustling scenic routes, while sweating and panting, while strengthening your physical strength, your mind also escapes the distractions of the city, life, and work, finding a tranquility in the pure land of Buddhism. Pass by Baizhang Pond.
2:30 PM
Return to the foot of the mountain and take a bus back to Nanjing.
6:30 PM
Returned to Nanjing and kissed goodbye with tears.
