San Qing Shan

Reviewed By bLaCk0uT7 - Prague, Czech Republic

We travelled there during the National holidays (specifically Wednesday and Thursday) which is the worst time to travel in China, because everyone is doing that as well. We got up at 4:30 and took a ride to the eastern cable car (2-day entry and 1 return cable car admission fee is 240 yuan). The weather favored us, and the sky was crystal clear throughout the entire day which provided great circumstances for taking the photos and enjoy the scenery. That is also why we managed to see the sunrise and it was spectacular. You should totally consider getting up early to be able to see that. For the most part of the trip there is only 1 way you can go alongside the mountain. There are not that many steps up since once you go up, the concrete pavement is basically flat or with only a little incline/decline. We walked on every path there is, and we finished the trip at 5 PM (7 hours of walking time according Samsung Health app and 31 km trip distance - realistically 25 km). So, it is manageable to see everything this place has to offer in one day and I strongly advise you to do so. Fortunately, there are labels in English and that even goes for information about how the mountains originated. There is no need for mountain shoes as there are no trails whatsoever, so I enjoyed this trip in comfortable running shoes. The toilets are scattered quite unevenly but you can smell them from a far. BE SURE TO BRING YOUR OWN TOILET PAPER/TISSUES! (I am not an English native speaker)

The fountain show is about half an hour and is followed by a light show involving all the buildings on the skyline. I've never seen anything like it elsewhere. Rent a 4 person bike. Take time to walk along the river!

Let me share with you my experience in visiting Lushan. Day 0 is primarily for transportation to Lushan. Transportation: First, head to Jiujiang Long Distance Bus Station. There are many buses going to Lushan, bus fare 16.50 rmb, about 1.5 hours ride. Bus will first make a stop at Tourist Service and Transfer Centre for visitors to purchase the Lushan entrance ticket 180 rmb. The bus will end at a big square in Guling Town (牯岭镇). This is also the interchange to take the sightseeing bus for the eastern and western routes. Accommodation: Travelers will most likely stay in Guling Town, which is actually at the top of Lushan. There are many hotels, restaurants, mini-marts in Guling Town. As for me. I stayed in Lushan Tianjie Villa (廬山天街別墅). Please see separate review of hotel. Exploring Lushan: It is highly recommended to purchase the sightseeing bus card, 70 rmb to visit the various places of interest in Lushan. There are 2 bus routes - eastern and western routes. See one of my photos for the bus routes. The main interchange connecting these 2 routes is at the big square as mentioned above. The bus card is valid for 7 days, unlimited rides. To take the bus, a female staff will scan your card and fingerprint and she will call for a bus to come. Inform the driver where you are going, else he may skip the stop if no one is alighting. My 2 days itinerary is as follows: Day 1 - Eastern route. Places of interest are Five Old Men Peak (五老峰) -> Sandiequan, 3-Tiered Waterfall (三叠泉) -> Hanpo Pass (含鄱口) -> Lushan Museum (庐山博物馆) -> Lushan Conference Site (周恩来纪念馆) -> Meilu Villa (美庐别墅) Day 2 - Western route. Places of interest are Huajing, Flower Path (花径) -> Ruqin Lake (如琴湖) -> Jinxiu Valley (锦绣谷) -> Heavenly Bridge (天桥) -> Immortal Cave (仙人洞) -> Big Heavenly Pool (大天池) -> Suspension Bridge (悬索桥) -> Black Dragon Pool (乌龙潭) -> Yellow Dragon Pool (黄龙潭) -> Lulin Lake (芦林湖). Please see my separate reviews for each of the above places of interest. I spent the entire day to cover the eastern route while only half a day to cover the western route. Hence, I took the long distance bus back to Jiujiang in day 2 afternoon. If you have only 1 full day in Lushan, I recommend you to visit the major attractions, i.e. Five Old Men Peak, Sandiequan, Huajing & Jinxiu Valley.
