📍Shengtang Mountain is located in Jinxiu Yao Autonomous County, Laibin City, Guangxi, with an area of about 120 square kilometers. The main peak is 1,979 meters above sea level. It is the highest peak in central Guangxi and the fifth highest peak in Guangxi.
🚉Transportation strategy:
1. First go to Jinxiu County: You can take a bus from Laibin City to Jinxiu Yao Autonomous County, arrive at Jinxiu County, and then transfer to the scenic area special bus.
2. Self-driving: Starting from Laibin City, drive south along G72 Quannan Expressway, then turn to S30 Heba Expressway and get off at Jinxiu Exit, and finally drive along the winding mountain road for about 45 kilometers to reach Shengtang Mountain Scenic Area.
🌟Highlights:
① Meteorological landscape: Shengtang Mountain is basically shrouded in fog and rain all year round. The unpredictable sea of clouds and fog is also one of its major features. Sometimes it is surrounded by clouds and mist, and sometimes the sea of clouds is rolling, just like a fairyland.
②Azalea Sea: Every May, thousands of acres of wild alpine color-changing azaleas bloom on Shengtang Mountain. Under the influence of light, the flowers change from red to purple and then to white, forming a hundred acres of color-changing azalea sea.
③Peak forest landform: The mountain sides and valleys are dominated by peak forests, with stone peaks like a forest and steep cliffs thousands of feet high; the top of the mountain has a gentler slope and is dominated by peak clusters and hills.
🌈Recommended attractions:
✅Stone Monkey Looking at the Moon: A huge rock in the mountain looks like a monkey looking at the moon. Its posture is very lifelike, as if it is quietly gazing at the bright moon in the distance, which makes people marvel at the uncanny workmanship of nature.
✅Tiangong Stone Cliff: The 🌠stone cliff, which is hundreds of feet high, is as smooth as if it was chopped by a knife or an axe. It is so steep and precipitous that it is difficult for birds to gain a foothold and monkeys to climb up, showing the majesty and magnificence of nature.
✅Ten thousand mu of azalea forest: Every May, ten thousand mu of wild alpine color-changing azalea flowers bloom in Shengtang Mountain. The color of the flowers changes from red to purple and then to white. The azalea flowers all over the mountain decorate the entire mountain into a colorful picture.
✅Ancient glacier relics: On the north 🌊slope of Shengtang Mountain and the south slope of Wuzhi Mountain, there are stone rivers and stone seas that retain the remains of glaciers 🌤️. These ancient glacier relics 🌟 are witnesses of the long historical changes of nature.
🏨Accommodation: There is the Holy Hall Villa with exquisite standard rooms and wooden lofts, and the Mountaintop Sea of Clouds Hotel which can accommodate 300 people.
