36 Hours in Huangshan: Stepping into the clouds

I climbed Huangshan once in late winter at the beginning of the year, but encountered heavy rain and fog, visibility was only about 10 meters, and I couldn’t see anything, so I made a plan to climb Huangshan again 🙈
This time I travel in May to avoid peak season and do not plan to stay overnight in the mountains
Unfortunately, it was foggy again this time. The good thing was that it didn’t rain.
I went out at the wrong time and still encountered several groups of tourist buses. We went up and down the mountain, passed the Welcoming Pine, and came to the entrance of Lotus Peak. We saw the illusion that there was no one. When we climbed to the middle, there was a traffic jam. When we arrived at the last bridge to the top of the mountain, the 10-minute road was blocked for more than an hour. The key point was that there was fog all around and we couldn't see anything, but the people stuck at the top of the mountain were still taking pictures of the white scenery. This is the reason for the traffic jam.
Then we walked down the mountain through the back mountain of Guangmingding, and the sun came out.
Azaleas are in full bloom along the way 🌸
Before going down the Yungu Cableway, I finally saw the distant mountains 😘 #大陆通关 #中国大陆景点 #黄山 #皖
