Just arrived home, make a summary of the three-day trip to Jiuhua Mountain, I hope to be able to help you with the self-driving tour.
On the afternoon of the 19th, our family of three took the shuttle bus from Huangshan to Anqing at one o'clock in the afternoon, got off at wuxi station in Jiuhuashan (ticket 69 yuan / person), and then called to the Jiuhua Mountain Scenic Area Transfer Center (the fare is 27 yuan, you can also take the bus), buy a good ticket (160 yuan / person), Jing pay ticket (ticket 50 yuan / person, this ticket should be properly kept, because going down the mountain and going to the houshan scenic spots to use) and then take the scenic transfer bus to jiuhua mountain gate, tossing for more than 4 hours, 5:30 to the hotel to live down (Jiuhua Mountain on the mountain homestay a lot, you can check on the Internet, I live in the triple room spent 260 yuan / night, the environment is not bad), wife and children are a little tired, in the boss's home casually ordered three dishes to eat, just visit the night of Jiuhua Street, saw the beauty to the stunning red xia, too shocked. Go back to rest and meet the next morning to go to Gyoen-ji Temple to listen to the morning lesson.
On the 20th, my wife and I got up very early and came to the gate of The Garden Temple, as if it did not open the door. It seems that there is no way to listen to the morning class, a little walk for a while, took a picture of "that is, the heart is a Buddha", went back to the hotel, let the boss make three bowls of soup noodles (cost 45 yuan), took the bus to the rooftop
Rooftop scenic spot at least according to the queue of a morning time to do, we are 7:30 a.m. ride, about 8 o'clock to the ropeway station, buy a ticket after taking the ropeway (can be two-way can be one-way, it is recommended to go up the ropeway, down to walk, otherwise too hard, we are one-way ropeway, just like this is also full of hard work, down the mountain are step roads, about 6 ~ 7 kilometers, if the elderly, must be two-way, do not save the two money)
After getting off the ropeway, we began to climb the mountain, and it took about 40 minutes to climb to reach Tendai-ji Temple, the tallest temple, which is 1340 meters high. Standing on it, you can feel the greatness of man, the thickness of the mountain, and the compassion of Buddhahood.
Watching Dapeng listen to the sutras, see the footprints of Jizo, admire the stone Guanyin, and show the existence of the Buddha everywhere.

Walking down the mountain, about an hour, we finally saw the phoenix pine of Jiuhua Mountain, really a memory of 20 years ago, and we felt very excited to meet again.

Take a bus down the mountain nearby, you can get off at the west gate of the Moon (Meat Sound) Body Treasure Hall, walk up, about 20 minutes, we because there were signs of rain at that time, we took the bus directly to the terminal station Tiger Shaped Mountain, replenished energy after using up Chinese food, a little rest, from the Jiuhua Street Hiking Trail all the way up, about half an hour or so. Then I came out of another exit and came back to Jiuhua Street.
After that, take the underground rail to the Centennial Palace and admire the reclining Buddha. I visited the body of the 100-year-old monk Flawless Zen Master and really admired the deeds of the old monk. Walking down the mountain, about 30 minutes to the Yuan Temple, which is one of the four jungles of Jiuhua Mountain, the wife sighed: It is worth seeing, such a scale, it is the first time to see such a large temple.
It was tiring, but well worth it. Stroll back to the hotel, take a bath, eat, and order a meal for dinner ~ pepper salt and yellow essence to treat yourself (yellow essence is a Jiuhua feature, must not be tasted). Tired, rest early.
On the 21st, I had an early breakfast in Huacheng Temple Square, which was very nice and convenient. Then the three people visited the Kaishan Zu Temple Huacheng Temple, the Great Compassion Temple, back to the hotel to sort out things, check out at about 9 o'clock, take the bus to the Great Wish Cultural Park to get off, visit the 99 meters of the Big Buddha, very imposing, really a little tired, the sun is big, very hot, to the battery car to do the work (spent 30 yuan / person) to the Big Buddha, took a family portrait. OK Jiuhua Mountain tour, the perfect ending. Booked a car and went home. #Self-driving the world#
