Activity itinerary

Shanghai (Pass by)

Kick off your seamless day adventure with a door-to-door hotel pickup in Shanghai, followed by a convenient transfer to the high-speed railway station for your bullet train ride to Huangshan City (Tunxi). Upon arrival at Huangshan City Railway Station, your dedicated local driver and guide will be waiting to whisk you directly to Huangshan Scenic Area—no tedious transfers or waiting around, just a smooth start to your mountain exploration.

Mt. Huangshan

2h
Admission ticket included

Once inside, board the Yungu Cableway for a scenic ascent to the mountain’s upper reaches, where you’ll immediately be immersed in Huangshan’s world-famous natural wonders. Marvel at the iconic fantastic pines, the crown jewel of Huangshan’s "Four Wonders". Gaze at the striking Heihu Pine, its gnarled branches stretching like a tiger’s outstretched claws, and the romantic Lianli Pine, two trunks intertwined as if lifelong lovers embracing—living masterpieces shaped by centuries of wind and mist. Wander along the scenic trails to Shixin Peak and Sanhua Hollow, where you’ll stand in awe of Huangshan’s dramatic granite peak forests. Carved by hundreds of millions of years of tectonic shifts and glacial erosion, these stone formations are a geological marvel: some peaks pierce the sky like sharpened swords, others crouch among the mountains like slumbering giant beasts, and the distinct "axe-cut" striations on their surfaces serve as living relics of Earth’s ancient evolution.

Huangshan UNESCO Global Geopark

2h
Admission ticket included

Venture to Lion Peak, the premier spot for Huangshan’s mesmerizing sea of clouds. Watch as mist billows from the valleys, shifting from a turbulent roll to soft veils wrapping the peaks. If fortune favors you, catch a glimpse of the rare Buddha’s Light—a stunning optical phenomenon where sunlight filters through clouds to cast a golden halo, a breathtaking sight found in few mountain ranges worldwide. Next, visit two of Huangshan’s most famous landmarks: Paiyun Pavilion and Feilai Stone. Paiyun Pavilion is the best spot to view Huangshan’s sunset, where the setting sun bathes the cloud sea and peak forests in warm orange-red glow, turning the mountain into a fairy-tale landscape. Feilai Stone is a mind-bending geological wonder: a 360-ton boulder perched precariously on a peak, with only a tiny contact point to its base. Defying gravity for hundreds of millions of years, its mysterious formation still astounds visitors and geologists alike.

Huangshan City (Pass by)

Refuel with a complimentary mountain-top buffet lunch mid-trip. Cap off your exploration at Bright Summit, Huangshan’s second-highest peak (1,841 meters). Its flat, open summit offers an unobstructed 360° panoramic view of the entire range: distant Tiandu and Lianhua Peaks tower over the skyline, while nearby fantastic pines, strange rocks and swirling clouds blend into a picture-perfect scene. Stand here, and you’ll fully grasp the grandeur of the ancient Chinese poem "When you stand atop the highest peak, all other mountains appear small"—and understand why Huangshan is a cherished UNESCO Dual Natural and Cultural World Heritage Site. After a full day of exploring Huangshan’s top highlights, your guide and driver will escort you back to Huangshan City Railway Station for your bullet train return to Shanghai. Upon arrival, a private transfer will take you straight back to your Shanghai hotel, bringing your unforgettable one-day Huangshan adventure to a relaxing close.
