Jiuhua Mountain Tiantai and Huatai scenery is very beautiful. It's just that the ropeway fee is relatively expensive (Tiantai ropeway round trip 160 yuan, Huatai ropeway round trip 160 yuan) Today I recommend everyone to save money and visit Tiantai and Huatai. And don't go back the same way Transportation 1, Monday to Friday you can drive up the mountain. The weekend is restricted, you can only take the scenic area car up the mountain. 2, If you take the train, buy a 50 yuan scenic area transportation ticket at the exit, which includes all the transportation in the scenic area, which is quite cost-effective. First, the scenic area car goes to Jiuhua Street, then transfer to the scenic area car from Huxing Mountain to Phoenix Pine, and arrive at the Tiantai ropeway upper station. Buy a one-way ropeway to Tiantai, pay attention to one-way!!!!! The cost is 85 yuan. After the tour of Tiantai is over, do not buy a return ropeway, just walk to Huatai (save 75 yuan ropeway fee). The walking time to Huatai is about 15 hours, and the scenery along the way is very beautiful. After arriving at Huatai, you can visit the Huatai plank road, which is built on the cliff, and it is quite exciting to walk around, and the scenery is infinitely good. Finally, buy a downhill ropeway from Huatai, 85 yuan. In this way, you can save 150 yuan in ropeway fees.
