Real coordinates · smooth curved route
Huaguoshan in Lianyungang, Jiangsu, is the cave-heaven home where the Monkey King was born in the classic novel Journey to the West. This tour starts at the Mountain Gate and follows the main trail past the Water Curtain Cave and Sanyuan Palace, through the Seventy-Two Caves to the summit of Yunti Peak, Jiangsu's highest point (625.3 m), with far views over the Yellow Sea and Lianyungang Port. On the way down, turn to the monkey area to watch wild macaques. Allow 4–5 hours; a cable car saves effort on the steeper stretches.
