Moganshan Tourist Attraction Checklist: The Moganshan area includes the "Moganshan International Tourism Resort" (comprising multiple scenic spots and villages) and the "Moganshan Scenic Area" (which requires ascending the main Moganshan mountain), with most people staying in the International Tourism Resort at the foot of the mountain. - The average annual temperature in Moganshan is 13.3℃, with an average summer temperature of 24.9℃, making it the "summer paradise" for Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai. - What to do in Moganshan❓ "View the bamboo sea, watch the cloud sea, play in the water, hike up the mountain" - 📖 Detailed guide: 📍 Address: Moganshan Scenic Area, Deqing County, Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province 🎫 Ticket: Peak season 120 (includes round-trip bus up and down the mountain) ✅ Must-visit spots on the mountain: 【Mao Zedong's lodging】【Chiang Kai-shek's residence】 【The Cathedral】【Sword Pond】and more ✅ Must-visit spots in the Moganshan International Resort at the foot of the mountain: 【Yucun Village】, 【Biwu Longtan】, 【Xiantan Village】and more 🚌 Public transportation guide: 1️⃣ From various places to Moganshan International Tourism Resort Take the high-speed train to Deqing Station, then take bus Y1 to the Tourism Distribution Center or Moganshan Town, and take a taxi from there with a starting fare to your accommodation. Or take a train to Deqing West Station, then take a taxi to the hotel or homestay, which costs about 20. 2️⃣ How to get from the hotel or homestay to Moganshan mountain❓ Take a taxi to the Tourism Distribution (transfer) Center, where you buy/check tickets and take a bus to Moganshan mountain. Private cars are not allowed to go up and can be parked here. 3️⃣ Transportation between spots on the mountain: Take the scenic area's sightseeing bus, which operates a counterclockwise route between the various small scenic spots on the mountain. The ticket costs 15💰, and the bus stops at each scenic spot/station to pick up and drop off passengers, with many bus services available. - 🏠 About accommodation: Most people choose to stay in the Moganshan International Tourism Resort, which is at the foot of the mountain. The accommodation on the mountain is not cost-effective, and it is inconvenient for dining and entertainment. I stayed at the Moganshan Yunyan Qianshan Homestay, which is very close to the Tourism Distribution Center, just a fifteen-minute walk away. The facilities inside are very new, and the rooms are spacious. Their herbal bath is quite unique; after soaking, I had a very comfortable sleep, and they also offer a tea grinding activity experience. It's worth mentioning that there is a bit of a food desert inside the scenic area, but the dinner at the homestay was quite delicious, thumbs up to the chef! - 🥘 About food: Most of the shops are in Yucun Village, and it's just a starting fare away by taxi from the homestay. There's nothing particularly recommended, but you can go for a coffee. - Tips: 1. Summer weather is changeable, so it might be a good idea to bring an umbrella, and there are mosquitoes, so take precautions against them. 2. The last bus down the mountain is just before 4:30 pm, and the bus transfer point for going up and down the mountain is also the starting/ending point for the mountain sightseeing bus, all located on Yinyan Street. 3. Sword Pond is 900 meters away, and you can play in the water but it's physically demanding, so it might be best to go there last. It's not far from Yinyan Street.
