Jinfo Mountain is a natural and refreshing scenic spot. Many people are looking forward to the festival, which will further control nature, as it recedes over the summer. When autumn comes, they can enjoy the beautiful scenery. Below is a detailed guide to the strategy.
The weather has become much hotter in August, and the heat of late summer is annoying. Summer vacation is of course the most effective way to adjust your mood. I originally planned to stay in the main city for two months, but the plan didn't change anytime soon. Since the plan is mainly for summer vacation, the destination for this weekend trip decisively chose Jinfo Mountain, which is currently hosting the Waterfront Music Festival. The two-day and one-night itinerary is rich in content, and I also made a semi-travel guide for your reference.
Transportation method:
I chose to take the bus. All major long-distance bus stations in the main urban area of ??Chongqing have passenger shuttle buses to Nanchuan. It takes about an hour. Arrive at Nanchuan District first, then go to Nanchuan West Passenger Terminal. Then you can take a direct bus to Jinfo Mountain and drive all the way to the west slope.
Accommodation:
Foshan’s accommodation is mainly concentrated in Tianxing Town, with many B&Bs and inns. Tianxing Liangjiang Holiday Inn and Sanxian Hotel are also good choices. The price of the Holiday Inn is about two to three hundred and one night, and the environment is good. Since it is the seaside music season in Jinfo Mountain recently, you can also bring a tent and experience the feeling of sleeping under the stars. However, the temperature is low at night, so be sure to bring more clothes when camping to prevent catching a cold.
Food:
There are many delicious foods in Tianxing Town. The most recommended dish is naturally the bamboo shoots, a specialty of Jinfo Mountain. It's good served cold or grilled. There are bamboo shoot soup, pastries and other snacks in the scenic area, which are worth trying. In addition, local specialties such as kiwi fruit and camellia oleifera in Jinfo Mountain are also worth trying.
Travel route:
Because this was the first day I had lunch before leaving home, it was already afternoon when I arrived at Star Town. Under the blue sky, the rolling peaks outline the distant mountains like green ink. The western Sichuan wooden buildings in the town stand quietly, and the stream is extremely shallow and flows happily beside the town. Many parents took their children to play in the creek, carrying buckets to catch fish and crabs, which was quite lively.
After arriving at the hotel, take a walk around town. Jinfo Mountain is a good place to escape the summer heat. Even at the foot of the mountain, the temperature is much lower than in the main city. The feeling of cool breeze and sunshine makes people forget that it is the height of summer.
The Tianxing Hot Spring in the town is worth a visit. There are many special pools inside, such as bamboo shoot soup. When I heard the name, I couldn't help but wonder if there were many bamboo shoots floating on the water. In fact, Chizi is the essence extracted from some natural plants such as bamboo shoots. The water color is clear and quite dreamy.
Because it is summer, there are many tourists in the hot springs, and cold springs and surfing pools have been opened. However, summer is more pleasant than a big water world like Xiajiaozi in the main city. The whole hot spring is full of laughter and laughter, and it is more cool than hot.
On the second day, after breakfast, we officially entered the Jinfo Mountain Scenic Area. Before the first stop, we went to Bitan Valley at the foot of the mountain and walked deeper along the canyon plank road. Wild macaques can be seen under the shade of the trees, which makes this quiet valley even more flexible.
You can take the ropeway directly up the mountain from the valley, which is very convenient. The ropeway itself has a relatively large angle, and when you go up, you can see the mountains and forests below through the windows.
The cliff plank road, as the name suggests, is built on the mountain wall. One side is a cliff that is 90 degrees perpendicular to the ground, and the other side is a hanging wall. The scenery is beautiful, but also thrilling, and the experience is exciting enough. At one end of the plank road, you can see the "golden turtle morning light" landscape, with mountains and valleys, high sky and light clouds, which is so beautiful.
The Golden Buddha Temple on the top of the mountain is magnificent, quiet and very solemn. Walking in it seems to be able to sweep away the fatigue of the soul and clear away the disturbing thoughts.
There are many scenic spots on the top of the mountain. Due to time constraints, we can only visit a few representative attractions
