Lazy version of night climbing Mangshan! 8 km cloud skywalk + stunning sunrise and sea of clouds experience​

Night climbing Mangshan is really perfect for taking kids! The entire 8 km is a barrier-free high-altitude skywalk, with a cable car directly to the summit, plus the same vertical elevator featured in "The Wandering Earth." Pushing a stroller is no problem at all, truly a blessing for families with children! 🌇 🚄【High-speed Rail Travel Guide】Guangzhou → Mangshan Family Route Guangzhou South → Chenzhou West: 1.5 hours 💰174.5 Shenzhen North → Chenzhou West: 2 hours 💰249 Recommended for families with kids: 1️⃣ Private car direct to the East Gate of the scenic area (about 1.5 hours, safe and worry-free) 2️⃣ Scenic area shuttle bus (one trip daily, departs at 9:00, suitable for families not in a hurry) 🚗 Notes for self-driving families: 📍 Navigate to Mangshan Wuzhifeng Scenic Area East Gate, enter and exit from the east About 5 hours from Guangzhou, with many mountain roads; daytime driving recommended, children should have motion sickness patches 🎫【Ticket Discount Tips】 For family tickets, it’s recommended to choose “ticket + round-trip cable car”: peak season 270 RMB/person, children under 1.2 meters free Must-add item: one-way vertical elevator 40 RMB (a must for families!
