At four o’clock in the morning, I gently picked up my backpack and left the house in the dark. Today, I’m on a journey to find the most beautiful sunrise. As a traveler who is obsessed with chasing the morning light, I have traveled all over China over the years just to find the most stunning sunrise moments. Today, I’m going to share with you the sunrise spots I’ve collected over the years!
Sunrise on Mt. Tai is definitely No. 1 in my heart! I remember the first time I went there, I chose to hike up the mountain, and stayed in the hotel at the top of the mountain at night. Although the price is not expensive off-season 300, peak season 500, but in order to see the sunrise worth investing. Tips Be sure to go to the mountain a day in advance, at least 3:00 in the morning to get up to occupy a seat, it is recommended to bring a thermos and thick jacket, the top of the mountain wind is super big.
The sunrise at the East Lake in Wuhan gave me a completely different feeling. You don’t have to get up too early, and the subway is directly accessible, so it’s perfect for lazy people. My favorite place to watch the sunrise over the lake is a quiet corner near the Listening Tao Station. Bring a picnic mat, prepare some breakfast and enjoy the quiet time in the city.
Sunrise on Mt. Wugong requires a little bit of energy, but it’s definitely worth it! I chose to stay at a tented campsite at the top of the mountain for 60 a night, and it’s only a 15-minute hike to the viewing platform in the morning. The starry sky before sunrise is also wonderful, which is a pleasant surprise! Warm tips The cell phone signal at the top of the mountain is not very good, it is recommended to download offline maps in advance.
When it comes to sunrise, you have to mention Mount Hua. The East Peak is definitely the best place to watch the sunrise! However, the accommodation here is relatively expensive, my money-saving trick is to choose 12:00 a.m. to start hiking, not only to save money on accommodation, but also to exercise. Of course, safety comes first.
The sunrise at the top of Mount Huangshan Bright peak amazed me. I remembered that day, the sea of clouds was tossing, and the whole world was dyed in gold. Suggestions You must choose a good weather to go to Mount Huangshan, I use the official public number of Mount Huangshan Scenic Area to check the real-time weather, which is a big help.
The sunrise experience at Mount Laojun in Henan Province is very special. There are relatively few tourists here, and the Golden Peak is particularly quiet in the early morning. I chose to stay at the foot of the mountain inn for a night about 100, early morning taxi to the mountain, cost about 50, but it is very cost-effective.
As a Chongqing resident, Emeishan can be said to be my backyard. The sunrise at the Golden Peak is really shocking, especially with the sea of clouds and the silhouette of the Golden Buddha, it’s simply stunning! Tips to share Suggested to take the cable car up from the Temple of the State, saving time and effort, the first cable car in the morning must catch up.
Alishan Sunrise and Alpine Railway is unforgettable. The train climbs along the mountain, the morning fog, as if sailing into the fairyland. Tips Train tickets should be booked in advance, as they are often hard to come by during peak season.
I recommend Tianmen Mountain for sunrise viewing in Zhangjiajie. Ropeway opening time just in time for the sunrise, standing on the glass stack, watching the sunrise through the clouds, beautiful heart trembling. Tickets are recommended to be booked on the official website, which can save a lot of money.
The last is Xiapu, Fujian, where the sunrise with fishing boat silhouette, is simply a natural ink painting. I am living in the seaside lodging about 150, and fishermen about the early morning out to sea, experience a different kind of sunrise.
After all these years of experience, I summarized a few small suggestions for watching the sunrise
