Bloody lesson! All those "tricked" by Li Bai into visiting Mount Lu

👇Mount Lu is a famous scenic area in China, located in Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province. It's renowned worldwide for its stunning landscapes and abundant natural resources. 🎫【Shocking Ticket Benefits】 ✅Free admission for everyone in March (original price 160r) ✅People born in the Year of Snake get free entry + 50% off cable car on their birthday ✅90r sightseeing bus pass is a must! Unlimited rides for 7 days (bloody lesson: hikers' knees will be destroyed) Here are some attractions of Mount Lu: 1. Emerging Peak: The main peak of Mount Lu at 1,474 meters, offering panoramic views of clouds, strange peaks, and waterfalls. 2. Tenggong Rock: A famous landmark featuring unique rock formations. Legend says Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu once lived here, leaving many celebrated poems. 3. Three-Step Waterfall: A spectacular underground karst cave with three cascading waterfalls. Its crystal-clear water is drinkable, earning it the title "World's Best Spring". 4. Chairman Mao's Former Residence: Preserved revolutionary base where Mao Zedong lived during China's revolutionary wars, offering insights into his life. 5. Hanyang Pine: Endemic to Mount Lu, these ancient "China's Premier Pines" add timeless charm with their towering height and dense canopies. ⚠️Warnings: ❶Five Old Peaks has 5 summits! Recommended to turn back after the 4th peak ❷Three-Step Waterfall has 2,600 steps! The mini-train only saves 20% effort (80r value depends on fate) ❸Never copy influencers' "East Gate entry, South Gate exit" route - you'll end up crying for sedan chairs 🚡【Transportation Guide】 ▫️Cable car fans: Get off at Lushan Station → 10min taxi to cable car (80r uphill) ▫️Nostalgia lovers: Jiujiang Station → transfer to sightseeing bus at North Gate (1h winding road - motion sickness warning) ▫️Hidden route: Donglin Temple → Xilin Temple → Tao Yuanming Memorial (for culture commandos) 🍜【Life-saving Food List】 ▫️Mountain snack stations: Sausages 5r→10r (price rises with altitude) ▫️Guling Town must-eats: Stone-ear stewed chicken, Cloud Mist tea cakes ▫️Hidden menu: Wild herb cakes at "Old Wang Snacks" near Main Street Post Office Accommodation Recommendations: 1. Guling Town: Numerous hotels with convenient dining/shopping. Options like Lushan Howard Johnson Huaihai International Hotel (great environment) or Lushan Songmo Homestay (unique character). 2. Hot Spring Town: Perfect for thermal baths. Try Lushan Zuishi Hot Spring Resort for ultimate relaxation. ⚠️Scam Pyramid ❶Three-Step Waterfall isn't the one in Li Bai's poem! That's Xiufeng Waterfall (outside scenic area) ❷Avoid Dragon Head Cliff in dry season - you'll only see "dragon drooling" ❸"Big Sky Pond" is just two puddles! A Ming Dynasty monk's scam literature ❹All signs saying "30 mins to summit" are lies!
