The "Finest Scenery of the Goat City" and a famed mountain of southern Guangdong: more than 30 rolling peaks (main peak Moxing Ridge, 382 m above sea level) form the tallest green barrier in Guangzhou's urban area; the ancient Nengren Temple, the European-style flower gardens of Yuntai Garden, and Mingchun Valley (billed as one of China's largest natural bird-watching areas) lie along different routes; on Double Ninth Festival nights hundreds of thousands climb the mountain—a folk spectacle of Guangzhou. The CNY 5 base ticket is budget-friendly, with the cableway and individual scenic zones charged separately; a summit round trip takes about half a day, and the mountain is a natural "oxygen bar" for residents' morning workouts.
Getting there: Metro Line 3, then bus / self-drive
