Huayin Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Mount Hua Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Since ancient times, there has been only one way to Huashan, how to choose between ascending from the west and descending from the north or ascending from the north and descending from the west
🏔 One-day tour of Huashan, departing from Xi'an, leave at 7 am and return at 7 pm, climb and finish on the same day, and your legs will be disabled for two days afterwards.
1⃣ Tour Route
🔹 Ascend from the west and descend from the north: The classic route, takes about 5-7 hours. Less climbing and more descending. The essence is concentrated in the first half of the journey on the West Peak cable car and the ascent to the South Peak. It's the preferred choice for those who don't exercise regularly; don't trouble yourself by choosing to ascend from the north and descend from the west. I was grateful countless times for not choosing the latter when I descended from the north.
🔹 Ascend from the north and descend from the west: The challenger's route, takes about 6-8 hours. Basically climbing all the way up. It takes 2-3 hours to reach Jinsuo Pass by the ancient Huashan path. The essence is concentrated in the latter half, and descending by the West Peak cable car is very refreshing. Suitable for those who exercise regularly.
🔹 Ascend and descend from the west: The elderly route, takes about 3-5 hours. Those who find it tiring can take their time and only visit the two most beautiful sceneries of the West Peak and South Peak. The most classic scenery is concentrated on the West Peak cable car.
🔹 Night climbing route: Start climbing from the North Peak at eight or nine in the evening, and reach the East Peak to watch the sunrise 🌄 at four or five in the morning. There are many people and lights along the way, suitable for college students and special forces.
2⃣ Scenic Spots Check-in
🔹 West Peak: Lotus Peak, the spot where Chen Xiang split the mountain to save his mother. The West Peak cable car is yyds❗️ Deservedly the TOP1 cable car in Asia, with first-class scenery, extremely shocking upon arrival.
🔹 South Peak: The highest peak among the Five Great Mountains, Changkong Plank Walk (those who start climbing after 10 am can go directly to queue, otherwise it's a two-hour wait at least, and by the time you're done, it's time to descend).
🔹 East Peak: Chaoyang Peak, watch the sunrise 🌄, and Yazi Flipping Over (a substitute for the Changkong Plank Walk).
🔹 Central Peak: Jade Maiden Peak, quite ordinary.
🔹 North Peak: Yuntai Peak, the only path since ancient times. Before the West Peak cable car opened in 2013, only the North Peak was accessible, and this section of the North Peak is also the best representation of the danger and uniqueness of Huashan.
3⃣ Costs
🔹 Ticket: 💰160 peak season/100 off-season
🔹 Scenic shuttle bus: West Peak 💰40/North Peak 💰20
🔹 Cable car: West Peak cable car 💰140/North Peak cable car 💰80
🔹 High-speed train🚄: 💰54.5 from Xi'an North to Huashan North
🔹 Group tour: Most cost-effective, includes city pick-up and drop-off, the group fee is basically the same as the self-paid costs mentioned above.
⚠️ Precautions
🔹 Gloves are a must-buy at the foot of the mountain❗️ Rely on gloves to grab the chains, anti-slip and also clean.
🔹 Walking sticks can be brought or not, they are somewhat useful when descending the North Peak, but otherwise not very useful.
🔹 Pay attention to anti-slip, there is still snow on the mountain in March, and it can be slippery after melting. If it's really not manageable, buy anti-slip crampons at the foot of the mountain to cover your shoes.
🔹 There's no need to bring too much food, two bottles of sports drinks are enough, and just two pieces of ham and chocolate. Water can be bought on the mountain.
🔹 Make sure to have a power bank ready, as taking photos along the way will quickly drain your phone's battery.
🔹 The extra audio guide for group tours is not necessary. Although there are introductions, I was either gasping from climbing or taking photos along the way, and I hardly listened.
🔹 Apart from night climbing, there's no need to wear too much, just dress as you would in Xi'an. It's a bit cool when you first get on the mountain, but once you start climbing, you'll sweat profusely.
🔹 Don't go to the toilets on the mountain❗️ They are extremely suffocating, and because you sweat a lot while climbing, you won't need to go to the toilet much, so just go before the cable car.
🔹 Be sure to stretch before getting on the bus after descending❗️

Mount Hua: A Perfect Combination of Challenge and Scenery
Mount Hua, historically known as the place 'with only one path', is renowned for its steepness compared to the other four great mountains of China, with a difficulty level that is truly top-notch. Although my knees showed their fragility in the face of the challenge, aching as I descended and forcing me to stop at the five peaks with regret, every step was filled with excitement and awe.
✈/🚅 Travel Tips:
Depart from Beijing West Station and take train Z19 directly to Xi'an Station, then transfer to Metro Line 4 to Xi'an North Station, and finally take train G672 to Huashan North Station. Upon exiting the station, there is a bus stop on the left hand side; for just 5 yuan and a 10-minute ride, you can reach the tourist center and begin your Mount Hua journey!
🎫 Ticket Information:
Mount Hua Scenic Area currently offers free admission (hiking requires reservation), but fees for the cable car and shuttle bus still apply. The West Peak cable car costs 120 yuan one-way, and the North Peak cable car costs 45 yuan one-way; the West Peak shuttle bus costs 40 yuan one-way, and the North Peak shuttle bus costs 20 yuan one-way.
🗺 Recommended Tour Routes:
Take the West Peak cable car up and the North Peak cable car down: The easiest route, suitable for first-time visitors to Mount Hua.
Take the North Peak cable car up and the West Peak cable car down: More uphill walking, testing your stamina and strength.
Hike from Yuquan Courtyard: The most difficult, but also the most challenging route, suitable for hiking enthusiasts.
Don't forget to try the thrilling experiences of the Plank Walk and the Turn of the Sparrowhawk; although you may need to queue, they are definitely worth the wait!
🌟 Exploring the Five Peaks:
West Peak: Excellent cable car experience, reaching the summit in just a few minutes.
South Peak: The summit of Mount Hua, limited space but bustling with crowds.
East Peak: The perfect place to climb at night and watch the sunrise.

North Peak: Conclude the journey of the first four peaks, welcoming the final long downhill challenge.
⚠ Travel Tips:
Essentials for hikers: trekking poles, gloves, water, food, flashlight or headlamp.
Choose the right route according to your physical condition; if you can't keep up, there are accommodations available on the mountain.
It takes about an hour and a half to get from the scenic area to the West Peak by cable car; be patient, and the beautiful scenery will soon be presented.
The dangers of Mount Hua are everywhere, especially when descending, so be very careful.
The Plank Walk and Turn of the Sparrowhawk are very popular, so it's recommended to start early to avoid missing out.
Strongly recommended: A trip to Mount Hua is not only a challenge for the body but also a purification for the soul.

Come join us and conquer this ancient mountain together!

The upcoming adventure is a spring day on Mount Hua in March | Climbing to the top to enjoy the flowers
Because it is a team-building trip, we chose the popular route 'West up, North down' + cable car buff
For those who exercise regularly, this route is quite relaxing, feeling like it's just a warm-up before it's over, and the rest is mostly downhill, which is not knee-friendly.
For those who are not used to exercising, it can still be tiring, and we encountered guys cramping their legs on the way down the mountain
Mount Hua is known for its steepness, and taking the cable car up the West Peak is really thrilling. The moment the mountain structure gradually comes into view as the cable car ascends is stunning, but those who are afraid of heights might be scared.
The 🌲 Chinese pines, Mount Hua pines, and peach blossoms 🌸 on the mountain peaks create a picturesque scene, and there is still some unmelted snow on the mountain. The spring breeze is so comfortable, and it's amazing to walk and admire the view along the way, it would be even more breathtaking if there were a sea of clouds
The overall route is well-established, and as long as you don't climb over the barriers and hold onto the chains properly, it's generally safe
Finally, I picked up two pine cones on the mountain as souvenirs from Mount Hua~🥳
🌸Suggestions:
1. For those who exercise less and have poor physical strength, it is recommended to take the 'West up, North down' route + cable car. After the South Peak, it's all downhill stairs, try to bring knee pads to reduce pressure
2. For those who exercise regularly and enjoy hiking, it is recommended to go 'North up, West down'. The climbing process is more enjoyable, and it's actually more knee-friendly for those with bad knees
3. The weather was clear on the day of the hike, and it was not cold on the mountain. A quick-dry shirt + a softshell jacket/thin coat for spring and autumn is enough. You can check the weather of Mount Hua on the official account 'Mount Hua Tourism Service Platform'
4. Pay attention to sun protection, as some sections are unshaded and can be quite sunny
5. You need to bring gloves 🧤, a backpack, soft-soled non-slip hiking shoes, a power bank, and an adequate amount of food and water. There are several supply points on the mountain, and I think the prices are reasonable
6. You can bring some cat food, as there are many clingy cats on Mount Hua 🤤
7. Souvenirs on the mountain get cheaper the further down you go. Tourists from other places should never buy swords 🗡, as they are not even allowed in checked baggage on planes.
8. Don't walk and take photos at the same time, take photos without walking, and don't do dangerous actions just for the sake of taking pictures. Be sure to give way to pedestrians️

Mount Hua in Shaanxi | The most dangerous mountain in the world
⚠️Precautions:
1️⃣Weather: Check the weather in advance on the official blog of 'Mount Hua Scenic Area' and choose a suitable weather to start.
2️⃣Water: Water is too heavy, don't bring too much! Don't worry too much about the high prices on the mountain, they are all within an acceptable range.
3️⃣Food: The climbing process is too tiring, not too hungry and don't want to eat too much. Before departure, I prepared some small snacks like Snickers, ham sausage, bread compressed biscuits, which are basically sold on the mountain, and the price is more expensive than usual, which is understandable.
4️⃣Clothes: Just wear a T-shirt and sweatshirt for climbing. The climbing process will be very hot, and the temperature on the top of the mountain will be very low, so you need to bring thick clothes!
5️⃣Gloves: They will be used when holding the iron chain. The supermarket at the foot of the mountain sells a pair for two yuan. It will be very tired later, so you can use your hands and feet directly.
6️⃣Headlight: It is necessary for night climbing! Some places have no lights, and the battery is 15 at the foot of the mountain. We used our mobile phones to light the way all the way, don't mention how troublesome it was. (Climbing stick: Say it three times, no need, no need, no need‼️)
7️⃣Photography: Girls generally don't wear makeup when they climb at night, so sunglasses, masks and hats are necessary! You will sweat during the climbing process, and it is overnight, so it is not recommended to wear contact lenses, wear them when you reach the top. Selfie sticks and tripods depend on personal circumstances.
8️⃣Essentials: ID card, student card, power bank, data cable, tissues, wet wipes.
⚠️Tour route:
〰️Go north and west〰️
Yuquan Courtyard-North Peak-Central Peak-East Peak (sunrise)-West Peak-Tourist Center.
⚠️About the cost:
Xi'an North-Mount Hua North: Round trip 109💰.
Tickets: Students 80💰, adults 160💰.
West Peak Cable Car: Students 126💰, adults 140💰.
Downhill bus: 40/person💰.
Carpool high-speed rail station: 5/person💰.
⚠️Small tips:
It's best to have a companion if you're alone, it's safe and not boring along the way.
The initial part of the climb is not tiring, you need to save your energy, the later part is very steep and consumes a lot of energy!

🌿 Mount Hua's main peaks consist of the East, West, and South Peaks, with the Central and North Peaks nearby.

Wow! You definitely can't miss the Shaanxi Imperial Palace—Xiyue Temple!
🏯🏯The first time I stepped into Xiyue Temple, I was shocked by its grandeur! This is a temple dedicated to the god of Mount Hua, the Western Great Emperor, located on Yue Temple Street, 5 kilometers north of Mount Hua. Did you know? This temple was originally built during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, and later it became the sacred place where emperors of successive dynasties worshipped the god of Mount Hua! 😮😮
🎉🎉The layout and grandeur of Xiyue Temple are just like the Forbidden City in Beijing, so it is affectionately known as the 'Shaanxi Imperial Palace'. The temple, facing south with its back to the north, has its gate directly facing Mount Hua, as if you can feel the sacred aura coming towards you. 🌄🌄
🏰🏰The architectural complex is divided into six spaces, and walking through it is truly magnificent. The Hao Ling Gate, Wu Feng Tower, Ling Xing Gate, Jin Cheng Gate, Hao Ling Hall, the Sleeping Palace, the Imperial Book Tower, and the Longevity Pavilion—each space has its unique charm. Especially the Wu Feng Tower, which is more than 20 meters high; climbing up and looking at Mount Hua, with the five peaks in clear view, is simply exhilarating! 😍😍
🏛️🏛️The main hall, Hao Ling Hall, is even more majestic, with glazed tiles and a single-eave hip-and-gable roof, situated on a broad 'convex'-shaped platform. It is seven bays wide and five bays deep, surrounded by corridors. Emperors of past dynasties often stayed here when they worshipped Mount Hua. The plaques inscribed by Kangxi, Daoguang, and Cixi hanging inside the hall further add to the historical significance. 📜📜
🌳🌳The entire courtyard is filled with lush trees and rugged rocks, full of the charm of a garden. Strolling through it, it's as if you can hear the echoes of history and feel the solemnity and sanctity. 🍃🍃
💖💖If you also love history and culture, then you must come to Xiyue Temple! The beauty here is definitely worth experiencing for yourself! 💖💖

Genuine historical relics, check in at Shaanxi's "Little Forbidden City" - Xiyue Temple
Xiyue Temple, located in Huayin City, Shaanxi Province, has a history that can be traced back to the Han Dynasty. It is a sacred site of the mainstream Quanzhen School of Taoism and one of the important Taoist temples of Mount Hua. Emperors throughout the dynasties would come here to worship the god of Mount Hua. Unfortunately, while the visitors to Mount Hua are numerous, very few make their way to Xiyue Temple. When you step into Xiyue Temple, the solemn and majestic complex of buildings almost makes you feel as if you have visited the Forbidden City itself.
Transportation: Drive from Xi'an, directly navigate to Xiyue Temple
Ticket: 15 yuan for a single ticket, but if you buy the Mount Hua package ticket, it already includes the Xiyue Temple ticket so there's no need to purchase another one
If you like taking portraits, wearing Hanfu would be a good choice

The first temple of the Five Sacred Mountains, 'Huashan Xiyue Temple'
'Xiyue Temple' is the first gate to enter Huashan, a place where emperors or imperial ministers worshipped the mountain gods. It was first built in the early years of Emperor Wu of Han (134 BC) and has been around for more than 2100 years. Xiyue Temple faces north and south, confronts the Lotus Peak of Huashan, covers an area of 215 acres, and is 5 kilometers away from the gate of Huashan. Xiyue Temple has a grand royal architectural style, with high walls, deep courtyards, painted beams and carved buildings, and solemn halls. Although it is not the Forbidden City in Beijing, it has the same majestic momentum as the Forbidden City. Emperors such as Tang Xuanzong, Song Zhenzong, and Emperor Kangxi have visited Xiyue Temple and held grand ceremonies. 'The awe-inspiring power is close at hand, the Lotus Peak, the vicissitudes of life, the Xiyue Temple.'

The Xiyue Temple at the foot of Mount Hua in the west is known as the "Little Forbidden City of Shaanxi". It is a relatively niche tourist spot! It was established in the Han Dynasty and has always been a key place for emperors to worship the god of Mount Hua.
The Xiyue Temple covers a large area and is a palace-style ancient building in the Ming and Qing architectural styles, very grand and majestic. Here you can overlook the main peak of Mount Hua, which shines under the blue sky and white clouds. There are not many tourists, so it's quite quiet and leisurely.
Taking photos in Ming-style or cheongsam and other national styles will be very outstanding~ Strongly recommend to friends who like to take pictures of red walls. Enter from the main gate, visit each hall, and then return from the right city wall, the scenery is absolutely beautiful! You can overlook the entire panorama of the Xiyue Temple~
The ticket price is 15 yuan, and the student ticket is 7.5 yuan. If you buy a package ticket with Mount Hua, you can get a free ticket~
