One-Day Scenic Tour of Tianzhu Mountain

Gather in Lu’an at 06:00 in the morning, then take an air-conditioned coach to Qianshan via Liuqian Expressway, the first expressway running through the hinterland of the Dabie Mountains (about a 2-hour drive). Along the way, feast your eyes on rolling green hills and clear waters integrated seamlessly with the road, and immerse yourself in the poetic vision of “Riding a carriage along the road, wandering amid a picturesque landscape”.

Upon arrival, ascend Tianzhu Mountain, the renowned mountain of Anhui Province (the sightseeing trip takes roughly 4 hours by cable car or 6 hours on foot). Visit scenic highlights including sky-reaching Tianzhu Peak, Elephant Trunk Rock, Mystery Valley (the unmatched wonder of Tianzhu Mountain), Heavenly Pool Peak, Immortal Crossing Bridge and Panoramic View Platform. Catch distant views of Alchemy Lake, the third largest high-mountain lake in China.

Later, head back to Lu’an (another 2-hour drive) with tired yet joyful feelings after the mountain hike, marking the end of this delightful trip!
