If you want to get the best viewing experience, it is recommended to go in the morning. The weather is clearer at this time, and the weather on the mountain changes greatly after noon, and it is easy to get foggy, which may affect the viewing effect.

Because the local roads are very narrow, parking on the roadside is prohibited, so it is recommended to park your car in a place lower down the mountain and then walk up the small road. Although it requires climbing, it is definitely worth it!
