Snow on Zhongnan Mountain

Zhongnan Mountain, also known as Taiyi Mountain, is located in the middle of the Qinling Mountains in Shaanxi Province, south of Xi'an. It is the birthplace of the Chinese idioms "longevity as long as the South Mountain" and "shortcut to Zhongnan Mountain," and is an important geographical landmark in China. It is known as the "capital of immortals," "crown of caves," and "the world's first blessed land." Zhongnan Mountain is 2,604 meters above sea level and has already started to snow.

Hiking around Xi'an - Zhongnan Mountain.

I heard about Zhongnan Mountain and happened to be in Xi'an, so I had to check it out. Itinerary: Take bus 730 directly to the entrance of Zhongnan Mountain Scenic Area. The bus fare is CNY 2, payable by WeChat QR code. Bus 730 runs along a straight road, and you can see villages and farmland along the way. The words on the gates of the villagers' houses are interesting, such as "Heaven rewards diligence," "Self-reliance," and "Fortune family." Buy a bottle of hot mineral water at the convenience store at the entrance of the scenic area. Nongfu Spring is CNY 3. (After entering the scenic area, the prices are reasonable at first, but get more expensive as you go up.) The entrance fee is CNY 45 for adults and half price for students. After entering the scenic area, there are two sections: The first half is a cement road, about 11 km long, with not much to see, so I took the sightseeing bus. The ride takes about 25 minutes and costs CNY 20 one way, saving more energy to stroll around the top of the mountain. The second half starts from Huo Long Cave, which is mostly steps. Some places are a bit steep, but it feels quite safe and not too difficult to hike. It's a leisurely climb with views. I basically walked through all the attractions in this section. It took about 4 hours to go up and down the mountain. I went down the steps back to Huo Long Cave, took the sightseeing bus back to the entrance of the scenic area, and then took bus 730 back. Note that the last bus 730 in winter is at 7:30 pm. The scenery of Zhongnan Mountain is worth the trip. Starting from Huo Long Cave, I walked through Purple Bamboo Forest, Guanyin Terrace, Manjusri Terrace, Cool Terrace, and Lingying Terrace. I basked in the warm sun of early winter and stood on the top of the mountain overlooking the misty green mountains and temple pavilions. The atmosphere of Zhongnan Mountain is gentle.

Cuihua Mountain in Xi'an | World Geopark, witness the spectacle of mountain collapses and earth fissures

Cuihua Mountain is located in Taiyi Palace Town, Chang'an District, Xi'an City, as a branch of the Zhongnan Mountain, situated at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains, 23 kilometers away from downtown Xi'an. The main peak is 2604 meters above sea level, covering an area of 32 square kilometers. Because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once worshipped the Taiyi God here, it is also known as Taiyi Mountain. There is a Cuihua Temple on the mountainside, which houses the statue of the Cuihua maiden. According to folklore, the Cuihua maiden fled here to fight for her freedom of marriage, and later became an immortal and left, hence the mountain was named Cuihua Mountain. Cuihua Mountain was formed by a massive earthquake-induced landslide and is famous for its landslide geomorphology. The earliest recorded earthquake and landslide in China occurred in the second year of King You of the Western Zhou Dynasty (780 BC), which strongly affected Cuihua Mountain. The Tianchi Lake and the landslide were at least formed during this earthquake in 780 BC. The landslide geomorphology of Cuihua Mountain mainly consists of barrier lakes (Tianchi Lake), landslide dams, collapsed stone seas, and remnant peaks and cliffs. The preservation of the landslide geomorphology is intact, which is very rare in China, hence it is known as the 'Landslide Geology Museum' and 'China's Landslide Wonder'. The main attractions include the barrier lake (Tianchi Lake), Ganqiu Pool, Geological Museum, and the ceremonial site where Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty worshipped the Taiyi God. The scenic area of Cuihua Mountain is very large, and it is unrealistic to visit all of it in one day. Depending on your own situation, choose a suitable hiking route that fits your ability. You can also drive to Tianchi Lake, where there is a parking lot, or you can choose to take a sightseeing bus to Tianchi Lake at the entrance of the scenic area. 📍Detailed address: Shaanxi Province, Xi'an City, Chang'an District, Taiyi Palace Town, Cuihua Mountain 🚉Transportation strategy: {Board at Xi'an North Station}, take the Metro Line 2 to Weiqu South Station, transfer to bus 729 to Xi'an Translation College, and walk about 4 kilometers to reach. {Board at Xi'an Railway Station}, take the Metro Line 4 to Wulukou, transfer to Metro Line 1 at Beidajie Station, then transfer to Metro Line 2 to Weiqu South Station, and then transfer to bus 729 to Xi'an Translation College, and walk about 4 kilometers to reach. 🕙Business hours: 09:00-17:30 ⏳Playing time: All day 🎫Ticket: 65 yuan

Mount Taibai! The most comfortable thing in winter is to soak in a private bath!

Beautiful private bath and accommodation at Mount Taibai I made a date with my sisters to spend Christmas together, and booked a private bath room for Christmas Eve with the boss in advance. It takes less than 2 hours to drive from Xi'an to the guesthouse, and the road conditions are also very good, in the holiday town under Mount Taibai. The most photogenic is the mountain and stone landscape in front of the guesthouse courtyard. In winter, the water scene is covered with thin ice, and it feels different in the morning and evening. Exchanging gifts in the room with a stove, and soaking in the hot spring outside the house, it's a whole surprise.

Do you know where Zhongnan Mountain, where Xiaolongnu from 'The Condor Heroine' lives, is located?

It is said that there are five to six thousand people living in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain, with the longest seclusion time being over fifty years, which is rare among famous mountains in China. What kind of mountain is Zhongnan Mountain? Why does it attract so many people to live in seclusion here? Zhongnan Mountain, located in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, China, has always been regarded as a sacred place of Taoism due to its geographical location near the ancient capital Xi'an. The ancient Taoist culture and the mountains and rivers of Zhongnan Mountain complement each other, giving this land a deep religious connotation. Zhongnan Mountain is majestic and rugged, known as the 'Honor of Qinling'. Its magnificent natural landscape and Taoist culture are integrated, forming a unique cultural landscape. However, with the development of modern society, Zhongnan Mountain is no longer just a mountain range, but has become a spiritual symbol, a symbol of the hermit concept that people yearn for. Seclusion is not just a physical distance, but a tranquility of the heart. People seek seclusion in the noisy world, essentially for the purification and nourishment of the soul. In this sense, Zhongnan Mountain is not necessarily the only choice, everyone has a secluded holy land in their hearts. This secluded holy land can be a quiet corner in nature, or a peaceful world in the heart. The secluded holy land Zhongnan Mountain is geographically located in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. It has always been a poetic place pursued by many literati due to its quiet environment and profound cultural heritage. However, with social changes, the concept of seclusion has transcended geographical location and become a pursuit of the soul and a life attitude. No matter where you are, the essence of seclusion lies in finding inner peace and nourishment, and experiencing the beauty of life more deeply.

the best time

In the early morning, the ancient Nanyin Gu Guanyin Temple, there are not a few tourists, the last snow has not yet. This temple is backed by Zhongnan Mountain, about 30 kilometers away from Xi'an City. It is located in Luohandong Village, East Street Office of Chang'an District. It is about 1400 years old and is one of the thousand years old temples in Zhongnan Mountain. This millennium ancient temple, because of the quiet, has a very strong Zen. I was always attracted by the wind chimes of a certain corner. I also looked at the candlelight in front of the Buddha and thought about my unfulfilled wishes.
