Funny legends and wondrous scenery, a chivalrous journey up Mount Hua.

📍Location: Mount Hua, located in Huayin City, Shaanxi Province, is one of China's famous Five Great Mountains, known for its steep slopes, magnificent scenery, and rich history and culture.❤️ 👍️Must-see attractions: Yuquan Temple → Hua Shan Gate → Peach Orchard Temple → Stone Gate → Shaluoping → Hairy Woman Cave → Cloud Gate → Repentance Stone → Thousand-Foot Precipice and Hundred-Foot Gorge → Laojun's Furrow → North Peak → Canglong Ridge → Golden Lock Pass → Middle Peak (It was already 5 PM at this point, and we had to hurry to West Peak to descend, otherwise we'd have to stay on the mountain.) 🎟️Tickets: ① Hiking up and down: Purchase tickets/tickets + accommodation. ② Hike up + West Peak cable car down: Purchase tickets + West Peak cable car down + shuttle bus out. ③ North up, West down: Purchase tickets + North Peak cable car + North Peak shuttle bus package for ascent, and West Peak cable car + shuttle bus package for descent. ④ West up, West down: Purchase tickets + West Peak cable car + shuttle bus for ascent, and West Peak cable car + shuttle bus for descent. 💗Other tips: It is recommended to hike in groups, taking care of each other, and avoid hiking alone to prevent getting lost or separated. Mount Hua is high and steep, so it's advisable to walk slowly. For your safety, remember to "walk, don't look at the scenery; look at the scenery, don't walk." There are many steps on the mountain path, so it is recommended to wear soft-soled athletic shoes. Mountain climbing is not only a test of will but also a test of physical strength. Additionally, gloves, hats, and walking sticks are optional. The weather in spring is changeable, so it is recommended to be prepared for rain, wind, and sun. I found climbing Mount Hua neither as difficult nor as easy as I imagined. I usually don't exercise much, but I finished the climb. I think the most challenging part was the Hundred-Foot Gorge, which was steep, with small, narrow steps and a very long section. Although there were other long flights of steps later, the Hundred-Foot Gorge was the most memorable. However, seeing the Hundred-Foot Gorge made me feel like the North Peak wasn't far away, which was super motivating. I was worried about rain before climbing Mount Hua, but unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at the Hua Shan North Railway Station, I was very excited and happy as a southerner who had never seen snow. Those who love hiking must go!!❤️❤️
