Luoyang Laojun Mountain Photos: Trip Moments
Only see the green mountains but not you, Luoyang Laojun MountainLuoyang | Traveling to the human world for a stunning banquet, climbing high to overlook the peaks, seeing oneself|||⭐'Travel to the human world for a stunning banquet, and see the prosperous world' My impression of Laojun Mountain is stuck in the beautiful scenery of heavy snow and silver dressing. This summer trip to Luoyang, although I can't see the snow scene on the top of the mountain, climbing the mountain in midsummer also has another green beauty. / ⛰️Laojun Mountain is located in Luanchuan County, Luoyang City, the ancient capital of Central Plains. It is the main peak of Funiu Mountain, the extension of Qinling Mountains, with an altitude of 2297 meters. It is said that Laozi once practiced here, so it is named Laojun Mountain. It has been a Taoist holy land throughout the dynasties. The Taiching Temple on the top of the mountain was built during the Northern Wei Dynasty, with a long history, and the green mountains are still there. / 🔥Laojun Mountain has become popular in recent years, and many people come here for its reputation. Although the summer sun is like a flame, the mountain breeze is refreshing, and there is a bit of coolness under the shade of the trees. 🏕️Laojun Mountain scenic area is not big, the climbing route is very simple, the main attractions are concentrated in the top part, a loop can visit all, most suitable for a day trip from Luoyang. / 🚌It takes about 2 hours to get to Laojun Mountain from Luoyang City. There is no hiking trail from the foot of the mountain to the top. All tourists need to take the first-level cable car (Zhongling Cableway or Yunjing Cableway) to Zhongtianmen in the middle of the mountain, and then choose to hike up the mountain or continue to take the second-level cableway. 🚠It is recommended to choose to hike from Zhongtianmen to the top of the mountain. Although there is no unique scenery on the way of this about 1 hour journey, you will also feel the joy of climbing while moving forward. After sweating, the breeze is refreshing. / ✅The core attractions on the top of the mountain are the Ten Mile Painting Screen and the Golden Top Taoist Temple Group. No matter which direction you choose to visit, it is a big loop. The starting point is also the end point. The tour route is clear and simple, without brain power. ✅It is recommended to start hiking from the 'Ten Mile Painting' screen. After passing the cliff plank road and the cliff of ten thousand feet, you will reach the main peak of Funiu Mountain. Climbing to the highest point of Funiu Peak, overlooking the rolling peaks, the green mountains are continuous, and the feeling of looking at all the small mountains is directly saying that the scenery is unique. ✅Coming down from Funiu Mountain, you will soon reach the iconic attraction of the top of the mountain, the 'Golden Top Taoist Temple Group'. ➡️Laojun Mountain Golden Top Sky Palace Theater, you can rest in the hall, dine in the restaurant, or watch a wonderful stage play. ➡️Laojun Temple, the Moral Mansion is the two halls of the north and the south, enshrining the statue of Laozi, the statue of Taishang Laojun, and everyone once again offers incense, prays for blessings and wishes. ➡️The three golden halls are respectively Jade Emperor Top (worshiping Jade Emperor), Liangbao Platform (worshiping God of Wealth), and Wumu Golden Hall (worshiping the Five Mothers of Heaven and Earth). The Jade Emperor's Top and Liangbao Platform are opposite and towering, the terrain is high, only one person can go up and down, the road section is not far, but the slope is steep and it takes a lot of physical effort. The Golden Hall is lower in terrain and can be reached by passing through the Moral Mansion. The three peaks stand together, each occupying one side. The three palaces are golden and solemn, like three mountain guards, marveling at the shock and magic of the building built in this desperate situation. / 🌿After visiting the Golden Top Taoist Temple Group, the tour on the top of the mountain is over. You can choose to take the slide and the second-level cable car to Zhongtianmen when you go down the mountain, and then change to the first-level cable car to the foot of the mountain. 🕒1 day round trip to Luoyang, time is completely enough, no need to worry about rushing and not enough attractions to see.RestlessVoyager44

City C Debut Plan | The end of the world and the cold fairyland? No, this is Mount Laojun!❄️Although it has been almost ten days since the last heavy snow, on the way to Mount Laojun, you can still see the rolling mountains still sleeping in the quilt woven by the heavy snow, so peaceful and quiet. After arriving at the homestay, I was even more amazed by the picture. The entire Nordic-style building of the homestay is in a world of ice and snow, just like a fairy tale world. No wonder a few photos were taken casually and posted in the circle of friends and were mistaken for being in the Nordic world! 🏨This homestay is located in the Mount Laojun Scenic Area. We arrived at the ticket check gate and the hotel came to pick us up by car. Compared with many homestays on the main street in the scenic area, this homestay is located in the valley, very secluded and quiet! And the room rate includes three meals a day and unlimited transfers, which is really great! 🏠The room we stayed in has a spacious rooftop where you can get in touch with nature at zero distance, or you can stay indoors and enjoy this world of ice and snow through the large floor-to-ceiling windows. The bath products in the room are all from L'Occitane, especially like that scent. 💁Service: The service is really not too good. Butler-style service, starting to ask about the approximate arrival time the day before arrival, and asking if lunch needs to be prepared when you get on the car to Mount Laojun in the morning. As for the later dinner and breakfast, they also ask in advance about the meal time, and prepare it in the first time, and you can enjoy it directly when you arrive at the restaurant. Two people, four dishes and one soup, really don't be too rich. According to the housekeeper, it is a buffet during the peak season, but now it is the off-season, so it has been changed to serve meals by seat, but it is absolutely abundant, and you can eat enough. 📍Location: The homestay is located in the Mount Laojun Scenic Area. It is a mountain away from the largest Laozi statue in the world, and you can see the Laozi statue on the balcony. There is a little distance to the cable car entrance, but the hotel can pick up and drop off at any time, ensuring both the quietness and privacy of the accommodation and the convenience. 🗺️Surroundings: The hotel is located in the Mount Laojun Scenic Area, and it is a seven or eight minute drive from the cable car entrance. The hotel can pick up and drop off for free at any time. ⛰️Mount Laojun Strategy: If you only play in Mount Laojun for one day, it is recommended to set off from Luoyang early in the morning, go to the hotel to check in first, have lunch, and then immediately go to Mount Laojun, take the first-level cable car, and then start hiking, about 2 hours to reach the Golden Summit, play on the Golden Summit, until the lights are turned off and follow the crowd down the mountain. After getting on the downhill cable car, contact the hotel, and they will be waiting at the foot of the mountain to pick you up to the hotel to enjoy the prepared dinner.

Laojunshan May 1st holiday is very hot, thank you Ctrip for the success of the ticket grab, let my family realize the dream of traveling, there was no rain on the day, but the fog was big, I didn't see the beauty of the ten-mile flower screen and the golden ceiling lights, because this trip brought the elderly and children, choose chartered car + two cableways + elevator, Although the holiday but went relatively early, the cable car did not have a long queue, lucky.
It's so beautiful, so shocking. I climbed so many mountains. This is the most beautiful and beautiful mountain climbing. Our first ropeway is to take a round trip. The second ropeway is only to sit on. It is very good to go down. The scenery is so beautiful.
51 Section, it is very convenient to use Ctrip to buy tickets, the scenic spot management is good, the scenic spot is opened very early, the ropeway operation is also early, so that the flow of people can be staggered, the old Junshan is very beautiful and fairy after the rain, the clouds and mist are lingering, the scenery is charming, like a fairyland, this trip is worth it!
Today Sunday, I went to Laojun Mountain, and I queued at the ropeway station at 7:30 and returned to the mountain at 14:00. Overall, the scenery is good. It is worth coming, I recommend everyone to come. We are taking the first-level ropeway up and down; take the second-level ropeway up and down; take the escalator up and down, walk to the second-level ropeway. Scenic area management: Basically, the staff in the scenic area cannot be seen, and the staff are not seen to maintain order in the crowded places. Management is generally the same. When I came down to queue up for the peak forest cableway, the crowds of people in the place where I got on the bus were crowded, and the staff didn't care. I was really worried about what if I squeezed a person down and fell under the cableway track? Summary Raiders: Travel: Self-driving first buy tickets online and then drive directly into the parking lot at the entrance of the ropeway. There are two parallel first-level cableways to Zhongtianmen (you can pick a seat at will. If you don't take the cableway to walk up the mountain, it is said that it will be at least 2 hours and there is no scenery along the way). There are several attractions nearby after going to Zhongtianmen. After walking up the mountain (at least 1 hour) or the second-level cableway "Fenglin Cableway" up the mountain. There are two roads from the exit of Fenglin Cableway. It is recommended to choose the one on the left (including the one on the "cloud plank road", more than1.3 kilometers, but the scenery is really good, the road is smoother), and the one on the right will converge. After the confluence, go forward, to the general station service station, you can choose to continue walking up the mountain or take the escalator up the mountain. If you take the escalator, pay attention to go 200 meters forward to the first fork (right front "Nantianmen" and left front "Golden Ding Taoguan Group"), first go to the right back to the "Maluling" - Funiu Mountain main peak (about 300 meters), and then go back to the third fork. It is recommended to go to the right "Nantian Gate" to reach the Golden Summit Taoist Group. Live: There are many homestays in the scenic area. Generally speaking, the decoration and management are not bad. The price is inversely proportional to the distance from the ropeway station. Eat: Most of the homestays can order food and breakfast, and there are also several food stalls. Quality and price are OK, not too outrageous. Time to play: the best normal working hours; followed by Sunday; followed by Saturday; the worst long holiday, such as 5.1, 10.1, etc. This time, we saw that the scenic spot has announced that the staff is saturated at 10 o'clock on Saturday and no tickets are sold. Sunday 7:30 first-level cableway, queue for half an hour, 1:00 pm to queue up the second-level cableway "peak forest cableway" 20 minutes.
The first-level cableway (with tickets 220 yuan) + the second-level cableway (round-trip 80 yuan) + the escalator (40 yuan only upside down) + the slide (20 yuan downside, you can also walk, I personally like the slide), a perfect journey. The scenery is pleasant, the incense is strong (Daxiang 30, light 100), the price is very high, suitable for us with poor physical strength, hahaha. There is also a drone shooting video, 80 yuan, it is also very good, come and leave a memorial. By the way, the sweet la la at the entrance of the ropeway is super cost-effective, 11 yuan, a big cup, and the taste is not bad. Warm reminder: It is best to travel on a staggered peak, there are many people in line for the ropeway, and tickets must be made online in advance.
The landscape is beautiful, the building is magnificent, the weather is suddenly raining, the clouds are lingering, just going down the mountain, the sun comes out, and I am very lucky to see the afterglow of the sunset. The Golden Palace is magnificent under the sun, standing on the mountain, there is an unreal beauty! The ropes and slides are really fun, and I want to go in the future.
Where foreigners can't go. For me, a person born on the plain, the mountain of Laojun Mountain, the scenery shocked me. We only have a hundred meters of hill, haha. It's really good, a place worth visiting by Chinese.
