This was one of the most memorable places I’ve ever visited. Mostly because of the shape of the mount itself and a temple right on the summit of it. When you finally make it to the top, you’ll see the actual altitude, which is 2300 m above the sea level give or take. View from the observation deck was stunning, mountains slopes going down the gorge in between them. Vivid green colour is everywhere around you, there is only the skyline where you can see the end of this green blanket. You have two options to choose from: hiking up the mountain or take a cable car and around a hundred of stairs to get to the scenic spot. Price of the entrance including the cable car round trip: 260 rmb. It’s really convenient getting to the Fanjing mount from Tongren city by bus or from Jiangkou town, which is within 30 minutes by bus. I spent 4-5 hours over there including my way up, cable car, stairs, seeing around at the scenic spot, queueing down the mount and way back by a cable car. So if you’re going to hike, it will take considerably more time.
