💡Useful tips:
- Cable car operating hours: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM
- Large temperature difference on the mountain, bring a jacket
- Bring bottled water as there are few sales points inside the scenic area
- After taking photos at the viewing platform camera spots, please quickly make way or you’ll be stared at by people waiting in line👀
🚗 Transportation guide:
Navigate to "Baishishan Scenic Area East Gate," where there is a large parking lot. It’s about a 3-hour drive from Beijing~
🍴 Food recommendations:
There are many farmhouses at the entrance of the scenic area. Strongly recommend trying the local iron pot stew and wild mushrooms, the taste is authentic! Around 50 RMB per person is enough to fill you up~
