Gele Mountain, the clouds are not as deep as your beauty!

Gele Mountain, the clouds are not as deep as your beauty! The "Emerald of the Mountain City" is full of lush green trees, with dots of green complementing the azure sky. Gele Mountain Forest Park is not only a holy place for scholars and writers to explore ancient sites, but also a quiet place to wash away the hustle and bustle of the city. It is elegant, profound, simple and open-minded. The scenery is really beautiful, I loved it. I went there with my friends, in the middle of the day. It’s hard to imagine, but in such hot weather, my friend and I started our mountain climbing journey at 1 p.m.! It was so hot at that time. We climbed a mountain road, but it seemed that it was not closed due to 911. We climbed up from a mountain road next to the orchard (unfortunately I didn’t take pictures). On the way back, we took the cable car. Our legs were weak from climbing. It took us less than two hours to climb to the highest point. Then we wandered around, took pictures, and played games. It was so much fun. Location: Shuangbei Street, Shapingba District, Chongqing, China (you can directly navigate to: Geleshan Meilin Parking Lot) Tickets: Free, no reservation required, just climb Transportation: It is a bit far. You can take a bus or taxi. Buses 201, 210, 278, 280, etc. can directly reach the Geleshan Forest Park Cableway Ticket Price: The round-trip cableway fare is 50 yuan, and the one-way fare is 30 yuan per person. Tip: Try to climb in the morning, not at noon or in the afternoon, as it is very hot (especially on hot days). There are many fruit trees and lawns at the bottom of the mountain, so it is also a good place to take photos. It was a beautiful rain, and the fruits inside could be picked. When we went there, Waiting for the cherries to ripen (we also climbed the tree and scratched my pants ) ② Choose comfortable shoes. The climb will take about two hours. It is recommended to wear long pants. If there are mosquitoes, you can also wear shorts. Bring mosquito repellent. 3. If you are afraid of being hungry on the road, bring some food (one more thing, the cold noodles in the mountains are not delicious). Water is a must. There is no store on the mountain. There is one, which looks like it is at the top (I bought it before, it is very expensive). 4. The mountain is very beautiful, remember to take pictures. There are also bridges along the way, which are also suitable for taking pictures. It looks very beautiful. 5. As for the cableway, it leads directly to Yunding Peak, the main peak of Gele Mountain. The cableway is more than 900 meters long and takes nearly 20 minutes. The scenery along the way is also very beautiful. Gele Mountain is very close to Baigongguan and Zhazidong. You can go there before or after climbing to experience the Red Rock Revolution (we went there before climbing because we felt exhausted after climbing the mountain and probably didn't have the energy to walk around. The overall experience is pretty good. I will go there again next time for night climbing. I heard that night climbing is also very good. When I climbed the mountain, I saw someone making a hammock in the woods. Hahaha, it looked very good. If you want to climb the mountain, I think you can choose Gele Mountain. It is very good and full of experience!
