Route: ① For climbing, it is recommended to take the hiking trail and walk up the stone steps to the top of the mountain, almost no sun exposure throughout the journey. ② For descending, it is recommended to take the asphalt main road, the downhill curves are absolutely beautiful, and you can take great photos easily. It is a good place to get some fresh air. Ps: We started climbing around 1 pm, and by the time we reached the shoulder of the mountain, we were already sweating profusely. We rested at a small shop for a while and started descending at 4:10 pm. We rested at the top of the mountain for a while and then walked down the asphalt road. The view was really good and photogenic, but it was still very sunny and hot. There was not a single shady tree along the way, so it is best to descend after 5 pm. Tips: Creek tracing is very attractive to children, you can prepare 1-2 sets of clothes for changing. There are many mosquitoes on the hiking trail, so wear long sleeves and bring mosquito repellent. There are several small shops along the way with drinks and simple food to cool off and fill you up, so you don't need to carry too much yourself.
