Qingcheng Mountain is a famous Taoist mountain in China and one of the cradles of Taoism. Legend has it that Zhang Daoling, a Taoist master, appeared in Qingcheng Mountain in his later years and came out here. Since then, Qingcheng Mountain has become the ancestral court of Shitiandao, and Shi Tian from all over the country has come to Qingcheng Mountain to worship the ancestral court.
Zhang Daoling, formerly known as Zhang Ling, lives in Sichuan and studies Taoism in heming. He wrote a Taoist book according to the Taiping Classic, claiming to be an old gentleman on the throne, and according to the primitive religious beliefs of ethnic minorities in Bashu area, taking Laozi as the leader and the Tao Te Ching as the classic, he founded Wudou Mi Dao, also known as Shi Tiandao, and was later honored as Shi Tian and renamed Zhang Daoling.
Qingcheng Mountain is divided into front mountain and back mountain. Qian Shan is the main part of Qingcheng Mountain Scenic Area, about 15 square kilometers, with beautiful scenery and numerous cultural relics. The main scenic spots are Fu Jian Palace, Natural Scroll, Shi Tian Cave, Chaoyang Cave, Zushi Temple and Shangqing Palace. With a total area of 65,438+000 square kilometers, Houshan is a wonder with beautiful water, beautiful forests and beautiful mountains. The main attractions are Jinbi Tiancang, Notre Dame Cave, Wutan Spring, Baiyun Group Cave and Tianqiao Wonderland.
Best tourist season:
Generally speaking, the weather conditions in Qingcheng Mountain are relatively cold, so summer is the best tourist period, which has the function of summer vacation.
Diet:
Taoist culture has led to the diet here paying attention to health and preferring to use medicated diet. Taoism is used to using the flowers of melons and fruits as food, such as ginkgo and chestnut, which are said to have the effect of strengthening the body, so the ginkgo stewed chicken in Qingcheng Mountain is a must. The cheapest one I saw was 58 yuan. Unfortunately, I was short of money, so I ordered an old bacon pushed by my friend before I went to Qingcheng Mountain. Fat but not greasy, the faint garlic sprout flavor is very tasty. The weight is nothing special, but it also cost me 38 yuan! My friend joked with me that I can eat n portions of Sichuan-style pork in Chengdu! Specially recommend the wild vegetables in Qingcheng Mountain, taking local natural plants as raw materials. That day, I ordered a bamboo leaf vegetable, 25 yuan, which tastes similar to some dishes I usually eat, but not exactly like them. Sweet and sour, crisp and refreshing, the weight is similar to that of a fried vegetarian dish in 3 yuan, a small shop in Chengdu. This mountain is immortal and spiritual. The beautiful scenery on the mountain makes people sigh from the heart, not only sighing, but also thinking. After coming down from Qingcheng Mountain, I feel that people have become dizzy and reluctant to leave. I hope to come again next time.

stay
To truly appreciate the "seclusion" of Qingcheng, you might as well stay in the mountains for one night. Qian Shan price 100-500 yuan/room; You can stay in Qingcheng Houshan Resort in Houshan. In addition, some Taoist temples on the mountain can also be accommodated for 20-30 yuan/person. There are also farmhouses in the mountains, 30-80 yuan/person.
If you don't travel to Qingcheng Mountain on the same day, there are many places to stay, and all kinds of hotels and farmhouses can be chosen, but living in the mountain will be more interesting. In addition to a tourist reception center in Qian Shan, most of the accommodation is provided by Taoist temples in the mountains. The standard room in Houshan is more expensive. What needs to be remembered is that the off-season price difference here is above 1 times, and learning to bargain will save a lot.

Other tips:
1 It is best to know the weather in Qingcheng Mountain in advance. It was raining heavily when I went to Chengdu that morning. Find the telephone number of Qingchengshan Tourism Bureau through 1 14 and call to ask.
There is only light rain around Qingcheng Mountain, so I decided to go.
The facilities in Houshan are very developed. There is a canteen to rest along the way, as well as a snack seller. Both friendship village and Baiyun Cableway have teahouses to rest in.
The mountains are quiet and not hot. However, there are many streams along the way, and although the road is easy to walk, it is slippery in some places, so everyone should pay attention.
The road sign is not obvious, so ask the locals more.
Don't rush to buy a ticket when you come back (because many waiting cars are full and take a long time).
You can take the bus to Dujiangyan (it will leave soon), and then take the bus directly to Chengdu (new south gate or tea shop) at Dujiangyan passenger station.
Note: Chengdu Chadianzi Station is far away from Chengdu, so buy a ticket in Dujiangyan and try to buy a car in Chengdu Xinnanmen.
suggestion
1 The scenery behind Qingcheng Mountain is surrounded by streams, waterfalls and pools, and the routes with good scenery are all the routes where streams flow (marked in blue in the figure).
The best is mainly in two sections: Wulongfang-Jinwawa Tuo-friendship village and Cuiying Lake-100m long bridge-Jinli ropeway station.
The section from Youyicun-Jiusengdong-Baiyun Temple-Tianqiao is just a mountain climbing, and there is no special scenery, so you can not go.
The mountain is not very steep, the road surface is good, and there are two cable cars to take. From the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain, there is a golden cableway, and from another village to the overpass, there is a Baiyun cableway.
