Songshan Scenic Area

1️⃣【Clothing】The weather is getting warmer, but the temperature difference between morning and evening is still significant. It will be cold on the mountain top in the morning, so bring a coat. Also, pay attention to the weather forecast in advance. If it's cloudy, bring a disposable raincoat!!! 2️⃣【Food】Bring a few bottles of water or drinks, and snacks like chocolate and bread according to your energy needs. 3️⃣【Tools】Flashlight, power bank, trekking poles (optional, not very useful) 4️⃣Mount Song Night Climbing Ticket Ticket Price: 29.9 RMB/person Mount Song Scenic Area Accident Insurance: 10 RMB/person The scenic area requires the purchase of insurance. It is recommended to buy it online to avoid re-queuing and wasting time at the second ticket check ⚠️Free admission for Mount Song Annual Pass holders and children under 1.4 meters. Purchase method: Buy 'Night Tour of Mount Song' tickets in real name on the 'Mount Song Tourism' official site. Coverage: Includes the Songyang Scenic Area Visitor Center, Tianzhong Market, and the lit area along the Taishi Mountain to the Junji Peak. ❓❓❓How do out-of-town tourists get to Mount Song 5️⃣Self-driving: Navigate directly (Songyang Scenic Area Parking Lot) 6️⃣Night Tour of Mount Song Entry Time: 🎫After successful ticket purchase, from 18:00 on the same day to 06:00 the next day 7️⃣Suggested Climbing Time: Do not start night climbing too early as it is very cold on the mountain top. It's also crowded if you go early. Start checking tickets and climbing from Taishi Mountain Square. It is suggested to start around 11 pm. There are both slope and stair climbing paths; choose according to your situation. 8️⃣Total Duration Personally, I think 4 hours is enough at most, and those with good physical strength can reach the top in just over two hours. Check the sunrise time in advance and plan a reasonable start time for climbing. 9️⃣Night Climbing Route and Method Going up The first section: Tianzhong Market (Mount Song Scenic Area Entrance) Scholar's Path, Child Prodigy Gate, Scholar's Formation, Tribute Scholar's Position, Top Scholar's List, Mount Song Academy, Immortal Bridge, Wujilvzu Temple, Taishi Mountain Square (Ticket Checkpoint) ⚠️To save energy, you can choose to take the sightseeing car directly to Taishi Mountain Square, the ticket checkpoint. Going down ⚠️It is not recommended to return the same way. The waterfall has no water, but it's worth seeing, although it requires a detour. But since you've come all this way, why not? ⚠️Some small tips There are many places on the mountain to watch the sunrise; don't just go to Junji Peak (the viewing platform is small and crowded, you can go early to secure a spot, or choose another suitable angle for photos) It's windy and cold on the mountain while waiting for the sunrise at night, so be sure to bring a thicker coat!!!

This is definitely the top choice for a free suburban tour in Zhengzhou! —— Songshan Grand Canyon. Songshan Grand Canyon is part of the Songshan Taishi Mountain range, less than 100 kilometers away from Zhengzhou. The canyon starts from Chuandao Spring in the south and extends to Daobai Gully in the north. The sedimentary rocks formed by the ancient river erosion have created a unique landscape! Navigation address: Songshan Grand Canyon Located in Gongchuan Village, Gongyi City, there is parking and vendors selling water at the entrance. The big rock on the cover is on one side of the plank road, where you can overlook the entire canyon, which is very spectacular. Free scenic area, there are signs at the entrance!!

After the first sentence, the scenery changes with the weather, and in the misty expanse of Mount Song, a hazy beauty is added. Being there is exhilarating and refreshing. This climb was rushed due to the need to catch a ride, so there was little rest. The total time for the ascent and descent was 4 hours, which is probably shorter than most people take. I was drenched in sweat, but reaching the summit felt worth it. 🧳Preparation before the trip: Carry at least two bottles of water, one bottle of sports drink, a piece of bread, a piece of chocolate, and a lightweight jacket. 🚉Transportation tips: A taxi from the bus station costs about 15 yuan ❤Recommended reason: One of the Five Great Mountains 📝Note tips: The tickets for Mount Song are sold separately. Mount Song is 50 yuan, Songyang Academy is 30 yuan, and Luoyan Waterfall is 50 yuan. 👍Most recommended: The best route is to visit Songyang Academy and then climb the mountain, followed by the route to Luoyan Waterfall.
