Hello, dear friends, hello everyone. Recently, our family embarked on an unforgettable journey to the dreamlike Longtou Mountain. Here, we not only enjoyed the magnificent sunrise but also experienced the cool and pleasant natural scenery. It was truly a refreshing experience for both body and mind. 📍 **Destination**: Hanzhong Longtou Mountain 🚗 **Transportation**: We chose to take the high-speed train and then a taxi. The high-speed train took only 1 hour to reach Hanzhong Station. We then tasted delicious wooden barrel fish locally, and took a taxi for about 150 yuan, reaching our destination in about 1 hour. 🎫 **Tickets and Accommodation**: We booked the Yunshang Hotel on the mountain top in advance, which included the ticket and cable car fees. The hotel rooms are spacious and comfortable, with a buffet restaurant and activity center. If the weather permits, there is also a bonfire party at night. The cost-performance ratio is really high. 🚠 **Tour Route**: After arriving at the visitor center, we took the cable car and then the escalator, reaching the mountain top easily in about 20 minutes. There are trails on the mountain top, and along the tour route, we can visit various viewing platforms to enjoy the sunrise, sunset, and sea of clouds. The entire tour takes about 2 to 3 hours. ✅ **Tips**: 1. There are supermarkets, restaurants, and noodle shops on the mountain top, with very reasonable prices. 2. The temperature in the morning and evening can be slightly lower, so it is recommended to bring a light jacket, especially if you plan to watch the sunrise early in the morning, keeping warm is very important. This trip to Longtou Mountain not only allowed us to appreciate the grandeur of nature but also brought our family closer together. If you are also looking for a place suitable for a family trip, where you can relax and enjoy the natural beauty, Longtou Mountain is definitely a great choice. Bring your family and set off together! 🌄🏞👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Spending two nights at Vienna International Hotel (Hanzhong Tianhan Wetland Park Tianhan Building Branch) felt like finding a corner that combines both formality and relaxation at the intersection of city and nature—the exquisite European style hides a dedication to detail, and the pleasure of opening the window to the view adds a touch of vacation-like laziness, making you want to slow down time. The hotel's atmosphere is evident from the moment you enter. The high-ceilinged lobby is paved with polished marble floors, crystal chandeliers refract warm light, and leather sofas paired with carved coffee tables exude European elegance without feeling stiff. The front desk staff are efficient; the room card holder features a silhouette of Tianhan Building and comes with a simple map of the wetland park, gently reminding guests, "An evening walk is perfect; the sunset is beautiful." The river view room I booked was on the 18th floor. The moment I opened the balcony door, everything quieted down. Below flowed the gently moving Han River, and across the river, Tianhan Wetland Park spread out like a green carpet. In the distance, the flying eaves and upturned corners of Tianhan Building outlined a clear silhouette in the dusk. Standing on the balcony, feeling the breeze and listening to the river’s flow, the fatigue of travel seemed to wash away. The room’s setup exudes stability: the mattress on the large bed offers just the right support with no noise when turning over; the spacious desk has an adjustable lamp, so my eyes didn’t tire while rushing through reports; the wardrobe not only has hangers but also a foldable drying rack and ironing board, thoughtful for those particular about their outfits. The bathroom was a delightful bonus. The marble vanity is spacious enough to hold a full set of skincare products, and the mirror has built-in lighting, making every detail clear when applying makeup. The shower has strong water pressure and stable hot water, with bath products lightly scented with lavender, leaving me completely relaxed after washing. The most considerate touch was the bathtub—after a long day, soaking in the tub with the river view from the balcony was a small happiness on the journey. Breakfast exceeded expectations in abundance. The buffet was packed with both Western and Chinese dishes, including freshly cooked steak and bacon, as well as local Hanzhong specialties like hot rice noodles and vegetable tofu. There was always a queue at the freshly made noodle station; the chef’s hands were quick, and the noodles were perfectly chewy, paired with a secret marinade that filled the mouth with flavor. The fruit section had fresh, juicy grapes and watermelon, and even the yogurt came in three flavors. Taking my time to enjoy the meal fully recharged my energy for the morning. The hotel’s location is truly a “prime spot for views.” It’s only a 3-minute walk to Tianhan Wetland Park, perfect for a morning run while watching the sunlight shimmer on the river and water birds occasionally take flight among the reeds; in the evening, visiting Tianhan Building and climbing up to enjoy the panoramic view of the Han River winding like a ribbon with scenery on both banks. Trying local food is convenient too—a 10-minute taxi ride to Zhonglou Snack Street. If returning late, the hotel security staff proactively open the car door, providing a strong sense of safety. By the second day, I noticed the subtle attentiveness in the service. When the room attendant cleaned, she neatly stacked the books scattered on the bedside and arranged the slippers in a tidy figure-eight shape; returning at night, there was a warm glass of milk on the bedside table with a note saying “Helps with sleep and calming”; at checkout, when I wanted a bottle of water for the road, the front desk handed me a large bottle of local mineral water with a smile, saying “Stay hydrated on your journey.” On the day I left, I got up early to stand on the balcony again and watch the Han River gradually awaken in the morning mist. Suddenly, I felt that a good hotel is never just a simple place to rest but a place where you can enjoy dignified comfort in a strange city while touching the warmth of the scenery. If I come to Hanzhong again, this hotel that packages river views and comfort together will definitely be my choice.

I made a special trip to Hanzhong just for Longtou Mountain! It was totally worth it! The sea of clouds and the cliffside walkway at Longtou Mountain are absolutely breathtaking, especially that sleek, curved walkway—perfect for photos and worth every penny of the ticket price. 🌿Destination Guide: Longtou Mountain is located in Nanzheng District, Hanzhong City, not too far from downtown. It’s all about that "fairyland vibe"—the mountaintop is often shrouded in clouds, and the creatively designed cloud ladder and walkway make you feel like you’re walking on air. Summer visits are especially pleasant, with temperatures around 20°C (68°F) at the summit, much cooler than the city—perfect for escaping the heat! 🧭Attraction Tips: Must-visit spots are the Cloud Ladder and the Cliffside Walkway! The Cloud Ladder has three sections, and as you ascend, the mist swirls around you, making it feel like you’re climbing into the sky—the industrial design is next-level, showcasing China’s incredible landscaping skills! The walkway is sleek and curved, with an observation deck that feels like a theater box, offering sweeping views of the mountains and clouds. Along the way, you’ll spot two uniquely shaped rocks, "Dragon’s Tooth" and "Dragon’s Head Token," which look incredibly realistic—great photo ops if you find the right angle. The glass walkway isn’t too long, but with sheer cliffs beneath your feet, it’s quite thrilling—perfect for the brave-hearted. 🏨Hotel Tips: Downtown, the Jinjiang Hotel is super convenient, just a 5-minute walk from the shuttle pickup point. Standard rooms go for around 200 yuan a night—clean and comfy, with breakfast featuring local specialties like hot rice noodles (try them!). For something closer to the mountain, there are farm stays like "Yunxi Homestay," where the owner serves fresh homegrown veggies, and you can stargaze at night. Rooms are basic but cozy, around 150 yuan a night—just call ahead to book. 👍Itinerary Tips: Highly recommend taking the downtown shuttle! Buy a combo ticket (includes entrance, cable car, and shuttle fare) at Jinjiang Hotel by 8 AM to save 10 yuan. The shuttle departs at 9 AM and takes about an hour to reach the mountain. Ride the cable car up (expect a 30-minute wait—go early to avoid crowds), then take the Cloud Ladder to the walkway entrance. Hit the walkway first for photos while the morning light is ideal. After the glass walkway, leisurely head back—it’s about an hour to the rest area, no rush. Return by shuttle around 3 PM—timing’s perfect. 🍲Local Eats: Snack stalls at the mountain serve tasty dishes like vegetable tofu with spicy sauce (5 yuan a bowl). Back in town, don’t miss "Old Street Hot Rice Noodles"—their chewy noodles paired with veggie tofu and walnut bread make a killer combo for 15 yuan. For a heartier meal, try "Baohe Fish Village," where fresh fish hotpot is the star (around 80 yuan per person). ✨Extra Tips: Temps drop at the summit! Even in summer, pack a light jacket—I wore a T-shirt last time and got chilly in the 22°C (72°F) breeze. Wear comfy sneakers—the walkway’s easy, but you’ll clock steps. Charge your phone—the clouds and walkway are too photogenic to miss. Lockers at the cable car station (10 yuan) let you stash gear and explore light.

#Sign up for tripbest July hotel testers finally arrived at the starting point of the Great Wall! The starting point of the Great Wall is at the Old Dragon Head in Shanhaiguan. This section is located in Qinhuangdao City, Hebei Province. It is the easternmost part of the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty in China and the only section of the Great Wall that goes deep into the sea. Because it looks like a dragon head reaching into the Bohai Sea, it is called "Old Dragon Head", symbolizing the "starting point" of the Great Wall. The Old Dragon Head was built in the Ming Dynasty and is an important defense point connecting the Great Wall to the coastal defense. There are important buildings such as Ninghai City and Chenghai Tower here. The wall of Ninghai City extends directly into the sea, like a giant dragon stretching its body. Climbing up the Chenghai Tower, you can overlook the magnificent scenery of the starting point of the Great Wall and feel the magnificent momentum of the intersection of the Great Wall and the sea. The Old Dragon Head is both the beginning of the Great Wall and the first barrier to defend the sea in ancient times.

If you are tired of crowded, check-in style travel, come here—in the end of the cloudwalk, meet the gentlest folds of the Qinling Mountains. — Longtoushan awaits you to uncover the answers hidden in its layered peaks.

#freemuseumdays 古汉台, namely ancient Han square, is now turned into the local museum, which is absolutely free to anyone including foreigners. HanZhong being one of the most historically significant city back in Han Dynasty (and post-Han Three Kingdom period), it packs a lot of exhibition of Han leaders that is usually less emphasized in other museums (other museums tend to focus more on the latter dynasties). So to get a complete sense of the history of China, taking your time to visit this museum will be both worth the time and money—wait, it doesn’t need to worth the money because it’s absolutely free! Just go to the reception, they might even waive from the online ticketing process! 📍古汉台 Gu Han Tai Museum

🌿 June in Hanzhong is no longer the rapeseed flower paradise of March, but it hides even more surprising scenery: meadows full of wildflowers on Zibai Mountain, and the clear water of Shimen plank road flowing through cliffs～ ✨ Off-the-beaten-path experiences: - Zibai Mountain hiking: Take the cable car to the top (round trip 120 yuan). In June, the meadows are covered with globeflowers. Walking along the ridge, you can see a naturally formed "tiankeng" (sinkhole); ​ - Shimen Plank Road: Walk on the ancient cliff plank road. In June, the Baohé River water is emerald green. See the "world's first man-made tunnel" (Shimen Cave) carved by ancient people. The 80 yuan ticket is totally worth it; ​ - Qingmuchuan Ancient Town: A 3-hour drive to the junction of Shaanxi, Gansu, and Sichuan provinces. In June, the ancient town has fewer tourists. Drink can-can tea on Huilongchang Old Street and admire the carved doors and windows of the Wei Fu Tang old residence～ 🍲 Southern Shaanxi cuisine: Hot rice noodles (with tofu side dish), walnut bread.

Hey everyone! I'm Brother Xin, here to share my recent travel experience in Hanzhong. This trip was absolutely fantastic—not only did I explore Hanzhong's famous historical sites, but I also indulged in local delicacies. What left the deepest impression was my stay at Hanzhong Rongjia International Hotel (Hanjiang Wetland Park Branch). 🌟 A Nighttime Feast Under the Twin Lotus Thrones The moment I stepped into this hotel, I was captivated by its unique "Twin Lotus Thrones" design. At night, the entire building lights up brilliantly, complementing the Hanjiang Wetland Park across the river—a true visual feast. Standing on the balcony of my room, watching the shimmering lights on the river, all my worries seemed to melt away. The room design is also exquisite, especially the deluxe river-view home theater room. Lounging on the sofa while enjoying a private cinema-like experience was pure bliss! 🍽️ A Culinary Journey Through Sichuan and Cantonese Flavors When it comes to food, we Shaanxi folks know our stuff. But this hotel's restaurants still managed to surprise me. They serve authentic Sichuan and Cantonese dishes, along with a dedicated neo-Chinese-style floor. I highly recommend their private dining rooms—not only is the ambiance elegant, but the dishes are a feast for the eyes and palate. The spicy and fragrant boiled fish is unforgettable! The hotel also boasts a banquet hall that can accommodate a thousand guests, perfect for family gatherings or business events. 🎈 A Fun Destination for Families For families with kids, this hotel is an excellent choice. They offer specially designed family suites, complete with child-friendly amenities and cartoon-themed decor that kids will adore. There are also kid-friendly spaces within the hotel, like the skyline viewing restaurant, where both adults and children can enjoy delicious food while taking in the stunning views. 🚗 Convenient Transportation, Hassle-Free Travel Lastly, the hotel's location couldn’t be more convenient. Whether you're heading to nearby attractions like Longtou Mountain or Guhantai, or exploring downtown for shopping, everything is easily accessible. There’s a bus stop right outside the hotel, and the high-speed rail station and highway entrance are just minutes away by car. For those driving, there’s no need to worry about parking—the hotel offers over 200 free parking spaces. In short, if you're planning a trip to Hanzhong, I highly recommend Hanzhong Rongjia International Hotel (Hanjiang Wetland Park Branch). It’s sure to leave you with wonderful memories!

#springitinerary While most people associate spring with cherry blossom (I did too), it’s easy to forget about the beauty of other flowers blossoming. For example, rapeseed flowers. During my trip to Hanzhong, Shaanxi, I had no idea that Hanzhong was famous for rapeseed flower, nor that it was in the season of blossoming. But thankfully we managed to be reminded and be a part of this once-in-a-year event. There were a handful of rapeseed flower field in Hanzhong. But some of the bigger ones were rather far away, and we were on a rush, so we only went for the one in the northeast of the city, which was pretty enough of an experience for me and my friend.
