  After breakfast, take a one-hour drive to Mount Huangshan. Ascend by cable car and enjoy sweeping views of pine-clad cliffs and dramatic granite peaks unfolding below. As you glide upward, you'll see some of Huangshan's signature scenery - ancient pines growing from sheer rock faces, mist drifting between jagged peaks, and striking formations like the Immortal Turning the Table that showcase the mountain's unique charm. At the summit, wander through the Beihai (North Sea) Scenic Area, where ancient pines cling to the cliffs and mist drifts mysteriously among the peaks. Don't miss the striking Black Tiger Pine, standing proudly on a rugged outcrop as a symbol of resilience.

  Tonight, experience the tranquility of staying overnight at a mountaintop hotel.
