Spend the day exploring this extraordinary geological wonder, walking along scenic trails and visiting panoramic viewpoints that reveal sweeping vistas of cliffs, valleys, and uniquely shaped rock formations.

After your exploration, transfer to the city for an overnight stay in a comfortable 5-star hotel, where you can relax and unwind after a day of sightseeing. The following morning, continue your journey with a visit to the historic Nanhua Monastery, one of the most important Buddhist sites in China and closely associated with Huineng, the Sixth Patriarch of Chan (Zen) Buddhism.


Discover the monastery’s serene courtyards, ancient halls, and sacred relics, including the preserved remains of Huineng, while learning about its deep spiritual significance. This thoughtfully designed tour includes guided visits, selected meals, round-trip bullet train tickets, hotel transfers, and one night of premium accommodation, offering a seamless blend of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and spiritual discovery.

The park is really big. It may take 2 days to visit all of them. The entrance fee is 50 CNY. The cable car is 60 CYN(2 way). The Cable car mountain took me 3 hours to explore. Remember to bring water with you.

This place is stunning, one of the UNESCO site. It's not the easiest to get to, but totally worth it. The area is made up of 3 area of different mountain group. Of which, 2 areas have paths set-up for trekking/hiking. While the last (furthest from entrance 1 is natural hike) location - locals suggested for us to not visit as many hikers get lost with no signals there. We completed each area in 3 hours without much stops. Can be strenuous if you're not usually active. If you're looking to do a leisure strolling pace, might want to consider a 2D1N here. Tickets are valid for 48 hours from date of purchase. Purchase the tickets outside the entrance (ignore the touts and go straight into the official purchasing counter). Once you enter the main entrance there are free buses every 30minutes to bring you into each area's entrance. Along the mountain trails there are small shops around to purchase snacks and drinks. Regular paths are rather clear - no guides needed. We didn't take the forest paths. Be prepared to see endless natural mountain views. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.

Amazing red sandstone landscape with weird landforms and very rich religious and cultural relics. One of the 'must see' places before I die.
