🏯 Luoyang Luanchuan|Laojun Mountain shrouded in fairy mist, I found the same fairyland as in "Nirvana in Fire"!
️Climbing Laojun Mountain in the rain is so romantic! The mist flows between the black tiles, and the Chinese architectural complex looks like it has emerged from an ink painting. Every photo taken with a phone naturally has a fairy filter✨
📍Address: Group 21, Qiliping Village, Luanchuan County, Luoyang City
⏰Time: Open 24 hours (bring a thick jacket for night climbs!)
🎫Tickets: 100 RMB (half price for students)
🚗 Transportation TIPS:
① Recommended to charter a car from Zhengzhou/Luoyang (2.5 hours direct)
② Scenic area shuttle bus: Luoyang Longmen Station → Laojun Mountain (departs daily at 8:30)
③ Self-driving navigation "Laojun Mountain Yun Jing Cableway," parking 20 RMB/day
🔥 Must-visit spots:
1️⃣ Golden Summit Taoist Temples
· Aerial view is amazing! Five golden halls appear faintly in the sea of clouds
· 📸 Photo spot: Second-floor railing of Liangbao Platform (camera facing Yuhuang Peak)
2️⃣ Ten-Mile Painted Screen
· The hanging plank road looks like a giant dragon winding around the mountainside, with cloud and mist effects on rainy days
· On the way, you will pass the stunning "Laozi Scripture" cliff carving
🍲 Mountain delicacies:
▫️ Instant noodle wall at the summit: 12 RMB/bowl (hot water free)
▫️ Mid-mountain farmhouse: Luanchuan tofu feast, acorn jelly
📌 Pitfall prevention guide:
❗️ Don’t rent the 30 RMB bamboo walking sticks at the foot of the mountain! You can pick up walking sticks at the trailhead
❗️ The level 2 cableway one-way ticket is 45 RMB; it’s recommended to only take it downhill (walking up the plank road is more beautiful)
❗️ Sudden rain is common in July, buy raincoats and shoe covers in advance
