A Three-Day Trip to Lushan: More Than Just a Mountain, It's a City

I visited Lushan during my vacation, expecting a challenging climb, but I was pleasantly surprised to drive directly to the top! Itinerary: 1. Arrive at Lushan—Check in—Explore [Hanpokou]: Named for its commanding view of Poyang Lake and the Yangtze River. [Dahanyang Peak]: Enjoy a distant view of Lushan's highest peak. [Poyang Lake]: China's largest freshwater lake. [Five Old Men Peak]: Admire the lifelike peaks resembling five wise men. 2. Experience the Poetic "Milky Way Falling from the Ninth Heaven": Lushan's Sandie Spring Take the sightseeing train (RMB 80 per person, round trip). With a drop of 156 meters, the waterfall cascades down the mountain in three stages, yet flows as one, hence the name "Sandie Spring" (approximately 2,600 steps are required to reach it). It plunges from the mountaintop like a watery curtain hanging in the sky. 3. Visit [Lushan Conference Site]—[Meilu Villas]—Descend the mountain—[White Deer Grotto Academy]—Return 🍚Food Recommendations: Lushan Stone Chicken (tender and flavorful) Lushan Stone Fish (delicious and savory) Lushan Stone Ear (crispy and tender) Lushan Tea Cakes: Traditional pastries with a crispy crust and sweet filling. Lushan Cloud Mist Tea: One of China's top ten famous teas, with a rich aroma and mellow taste. ⚠️Tips: 1. There is a large temperature difference between day and night on the mountain, so dress warmly. 2. Lushan: Free admission for everyone from Mar 1 to 31, 2025.
