Dahong Mountain → Huzhao Mountain in Jingshan｜A Vertical Journey from a Buddhist Sanctuary to Forest Wilderness

From the cloud-shrouded Brahma Palace on Baozhu Peak of Dahong Mountain to the green maze of ten thousand acres of fir forest on Huzhao Mountain—a 1.5-hour drive descends from 1000 meters to 200 meters in elevation. The golden summit’s bell still rings in your ears, and in the blink of an eye, you’re stepping on fallen leaves along the forest rainbow trail, as if falling from a fairyland into a natural oxygen bar.

🌲 Dual Mountain Experience
▪️ Dahong Mountain: Climb the golden summit to watch the sea of clouds and Buddha’s light, explore the thousand-year-old ginkgo tree king surrounded by incense smoke
▪️ Huzhao Mountain: Hike the secret fir forest to find tree hole mushrooms, in autumn chestnuts fall all over the ground ready to be picked

🏡 Accommodation Recommendations
1️⃣ Dahong Mountain Zizai Valley Hotel (mid-mountain in the scenic area)
Zen-style suite with a stargazing skylight, open the window in the morning to embrace the sea of clouds
2️⃣ Jinjiang IU Hotel Jingshan (city center)
After climbing Huzhao Mountain, you can stroll in the park next to the hotel and enjoy the night market.

📌 Tips:
· Secret route: Dahong Mountain Huanglong Pond → Sword Mouth Leap → Huzhao Mountain Liumen Waterfall connected hiking
· Autumn special: In October, Huzhao Mountain’s forests are ablaze with color, aerial views look like a spilled palette
