It took about 4 hours from Zhengzhou to Baiyun Mountain, when arrived at the foot of Baiyun Mountain, we still need to take the scenic spot bus to get to the halfway up the Baiyun Mountain. It’s been a long way, and all is sky way, there are more than 300 bends, it feels like sitting on a roller coaster, but drivers are very experienced, finally we safely arrived at the hotel, Jiulong Mountain Villa. After having a simple lunch and a short break, we began our afternoon journey, visiting Jiulong Waterfall.

We got to Jiulong Waterfall by sightseeing bus, then we began to find the Jiulong Waterfall along with stone steps. On the way to Jiulong Waterfall, we went by many caves, some tourists made roar noise on purpose to scare us, that’s really interesting. Also, we can see the beautiful scenery of Bailong Waterfall, Qianchi Cliff, Pearl Pool on the way to Jiulong Waterfall. The most interesting experience was walking on the glass road that hanging on the mountain. Let alone walking on hanging bridge in front of Qianchi Cliff, it feels like you will tumbledown accidentally at any time.

We were so proud of ourselves.
