[quote=ELLYSE,368199]Unless you're a pretty fast hiker, otherwise I think it might be a bit late to start on that departure. Do you not have the option of starting on an earlier bus? From Tangkou you still need to connect to another bus to get to the foot of the Eastern Steps. From there it probably takes around 3 hours to climb to the summit area. There're a number of hotels and sunrise viewing points, what is suitable would depend on your route. Buses to Tangkou depart from Hangzhou West long-distance bus station. It probably takes around 3+ hours to arrive at Tangkou. Actually though, my pet recommendation would usually be to take a bus to Tunxi, connect to a bus to Taiping (north foot of the mountain, much less crowded), taxi to Taiping cable car station, ascend via Taiping cable car then hike West Sea Canyon. After sunrise the next day, descend on foot via Western or Eastern Steps. Would this be ok for you to consider? IMHO the best scenery (and most uncrowded) on Huangshan is the West Sea Canyon. If you have any more queries, please email to ellyse99@yahoo.com and put "TravelChinaGuide" and your own username in the subject line, thanks.[/quote]
