Anhui Travel FAQ
How long does it take to hike the main trails at Tianzhu Mountain?
It depends entirely on your route and fitness. A typical circuit to see Heavenly Pillar Peak, using the Dragon River cable car up and hiking down, takes 5-6 hours at a steady pace with photo stops. The Mystic Valley loop is gentler and takes about 3-4 hours. Attempting to link both in one day is a 8-10 hour marathon and not enjoyable for most people. Plan for one major area per day.
Is tap water safe to drink?
Not recommended. Stick to bottled water, which is affordable and widely available. Most hotels provide complimentary bottled water or an electric kettle for boiling water.
