Gate (Tangkou) 1 hour - by minibus from Yellow Mt. Gate (Tangkou) to Cloud Valley Cable Car Station (20min.) - Cable Car from Cloud Valley Temple directly to Xihai Hotel up in mountain (stay there 2 nights) - back to Shanghai by nighttrain 2.5. I can't speak chinese. Is it easy to find bus in Tunxi and Tangkou? Has somebody been in Xihai Hotel? How is the weather there at that time 30.4.-2.5.2005. Any tips for places to visit on my way to the mountain? Thank you in advance for every advice!

Hi! ASA1963

I watched the weather forecast on TV yesterday and got the info that most China's cities would experience the rainy days during this May day holiday. To ocncern the weather of Huangshan or any cities you may visit

Finding buses is not difficult, and since it's travel season you may meet some foreigners and college students there. Don't be shy to ask questions when you are in trouble, sometimes tourists are more helpful than the local staff.

Here attach a map of Huangshan area, may it is useful:)

Have a good trip and we are looking forward to sharing your travel experience with us !

I can speak only a little Chinese. I am planning to travel independently with 2 friends. I have no reservations.
