Exploring Qinghai Riyue Mountain, Embracing the Beauty of Nature 🏔️🌄

We embarked on our journey to Riyue Mountain, a 1.5-hour drive from downtown Xining, which was our first destination. Due to the constraints of our itinerary and time, we debated between visiting Ta'er Temple and Riyue Mountain, but ultimately decided to go to Riyue Mountain.

📍Location: Riyue Mountain is situated 40 kilometers southwest of Xining City, Huanyuan County, Qinghai Province.
🎫Ticket: 50 yuan.
⏰Opening hours: 8:00 - 17:00.
☀️Best Season: June to August is the ideal time. The summer is pleasantly cool, while other seasons can be quite cold with significant temperature differences between day and night.

☑️ Scenic Introduction

Riyue Mountain, formerly known as "Chiling" before the Tang Dynasty, is part of the Qilian Mountain Range⛰️. Stretching 90 kilometers, it marks the boundary between the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the Loess Plateau. On the mountain, there are attractions such as Riyue Pavilion, Princess Wencheng's Mansion, and a large prayer flag.

📖 Legend and Story

Legend has it that when Princess Wencheng entered Tibet and married Songtsen Gampo, she passed by this place. As she looked back, she couldn't see Chang'an (the ancient capital), which made her feel a pang of sadness. In her despair, she accidentally dropped the "Sun and Moon Treasure Mirror" given to her by the Empress. The mirror fell to the ground, with one half representing the sun and the other half representing the moon, giving rise to the name Riyue Mountain~
