Order the entry tickets and cable rides passes on trip.com, scan the QR code to enter. It exceeded my expectations for this visit, there are so much to see and do inside the pavilion than what the picture shows or go with a tour group. Initially we were going to take a tour as it is our first time to ShangDong and not sure how easy to get around. I am glad that we decided to be adventurous. Once entering the park, you just follow the path and walk from one site to the other. Don’t let the height of the next scenery intimidate you, just take your time, hike a few steps and sit aside to rest then go again. You’ll be proud of yourself and appreciate the beautiful views that you won’t see by joining the tour. To take the cable, you enter another town by scanning the pavilion entrance QR code again. If you don’t want to take the cable ride, visiting that town is also scenic and hike up to the highest point, the Diamond Square.
