Journey to Baiyun Mountain-Climbing Jade Emperor Peak

It was past noon 12 when I came up from Jiulong Waterfall. It was still early, so we decided to climb the Jade Emperor Peak.

? Yuhuangding is the most magnificent place in Baiyun Mountain, with an altitude of 22 16 meters. It is named after the peak is inserted into the Heavenly Palace and the top is like a crown. It is the highest altitude in Baiyun Mountain and has the reputation of "green heart". It is a good place to watch the sunrise in the sea of clouds in the Central Plains. Climbing the Jade Emperor Peak on the top of the peaks can be described as "other mountains are dwarfed." It is an eye-opener and breathtaking, and the natural landscape is mysterious and fantastic. There is a concentric lock at the top of the mountain, and visitors can hang it in the "nearest place to the sky". At the same time, the Jade Emperor Pavilion at the top of the mountain is a high-altitude Taoist resort in China, with strong incense and aura. Last time I came, it rained heavily and there was fog everywhere. I didn't see the beautiful scenery. This time, the sky is clear, and something beautiful must meet us.

In sightseeing bus, a scenic spot, the driver took us to the door of Jigaoman ropeway. 60 yuan before the one-way cableway goes up the mountain, and 50 yuan before the cableway goes down the mountain. Full ticket 100 yuan. After buying the tickets, we started a mountaineering trip, which can save 2 hours compared with hiking.

Jijiaoman Scenic Area has been developed in recent years. In addition to the natural scenery, there is also a beautiful scenery-Xiaohuangshan cableway. The total length of Xiaohuangshan cableway is 1 105.55 meters, with a height difference of 295.5 meters. Design, manufacture, installation and automatic operation of the most advanced single-cable circulating detachable cable clamp car system provided by Dobermaya company in Austria. Its maximum transport capacity is 2000 people per hour, in which the ropeway adopts some panoramic sightseeing cranes and is paved with high-strength tempered glass floor, with a light transmittance of 92%, overlooking the peaks at the foot, which is wonderful.

? Unfortunately, I am afraid of heights and can't overlook the scenery under my feet. I can only look up at the sky and see the green Shan Lan in the distance. Seeing my husband and son watching, talking and taking photos excitedly, I can only envy!

? When we got off the ropeway, we asked the staff cheerfully how far it was from Yuhuang Peak. The staff told us that the straight-line distance is 1500m, but it takes five mountains to get there. I feel weak when I listen to it. Oh, my God, when should this go? But since I'm here, there's no point in going back, so I have to bite the bullet and start climbing the Jade Emperor's top.

? There are tourists returning home all the way. They enthusiastically told us that the road would be steep at first, and it would be smoother after two mountains, which was much easier than climbing directly from the bottom of the mountain, giving us unlimited hope.

Ji Jiaoman is located in the southeast of Baiyun Mountain Scenic Area in Luoyang, with the main peak at an altitude of 1.845 meters. The mountains are continuous and the peaks are steep. On the smooth rock wall of the summit, pine trees stand tall and straight. On the side of Xiaohuangshan, there is a gong and drum cave with a height of 18m, a width of 17m and a depth of 34m, looming in the dense forest of ancient trees. According to legend, Yue Xian's wonderful singing voice was heard in the cave, with sonorous gongs and drums and melodious piano sounds, indicating good weather. There is a pool in the cave. There is not enough water, but it is mysterious. No one can drink, no one can drink.

There are many scenic spots along the way, such as Arrow Bamboo Forest, Flying Stone, Red Birch Forest, Lovers Stone, Stone Castle, Chu Great Wall, Jade Rabbit Yue Bai, Observation Deck, Bird's Nest Stone, and the bow of the nobles.

? On the way, we stopped and stopped, and finally came to the intersection of Yuhuangding Scenic Area and Jijiaoman Scenic Area. There is a stone tablet engraved with two poems by the famous poet Wang Guozhen, "There is no road longer than a foot, and there is no mountain higher than people." Nothing can express our feelings at this time. Take photos as a souvenir.

? After boarding the Jade Emperor Pavilion, I really didn't want to leave, so I discussed with my son: "You are young, so go up and have a look. Your father and I will wait for you here! " The son said, "mom, hold on, but it's only 100 meters away, and it won't take long." Looking up at this steep step and looking at my son's expectant eyes, I encouraged my husband to "stick to one more stop!" " "

Our legs only tremble. We grab the rope by the roadside or grab the railing. We only stare at the two steps in front of us and go up step by step, fearing to make a compromise as soon as we look up.

Finally, I reached the Jade Emperor Peak, and my eyes suddenly widened. At the top of a huge stone, there are four big red characters engraved with "Central Plains Extremely Top", and the altitude figure of "1 126 meters" is written. Next to it is a round building called "Golden Temple". Candles were lit in the incense burner in front of the temple, and many wishing locks and red ribbons were hung on the iron railings around. Looking from the railing, the mountains are green, not steep, but beautiful and soft. When there are clouds floating, the color on the mountain becomes thicker, so yellow-green, dark green, I'm afraid even Dan Qing's skillful hands can't draw such a beautiful picture. The sky is blue and a few clouds are white, which makes people relaxed and happy! It's really "infinite scenery with dangerous peaks!"

? I am very grateful for my son's persistence, which makes me feel so unique. Yes, it's a long way. Walk slowly, and the infinite scenery is ahead. ...
