In fact, the Blue Mountains are quite similar to a combination of Zhangjiajie and Mount Emei in China. There are three strange rocks standing tall in the vast alpine valleys. For Sichuan people who are used to seeing magnificent mountains and waters, the Blue Mountains are definitely not extremely imposing. The air there is excellent. It takes about two hours by car to reach the starting point of the Blue Mountains. You can take a small train to visit various scenic spots in the Blue Mountains. In total, you need to take three kinds of transportation means while touring the Blue Mountains, including cable cars and trains.
