Luoyang Departure: Laojun Mountain, Jiguan Cave and Longtan Canyon, 5 Days 4 Nights
Five days from Luoyang. The Laojun Mountain ticket holds for two days, so the mountain is climbed twice: the painted rock forest first, then the summit to wait for the lamps. The second half runs west to Xinan, through a cave that stays at 18 degrees and a red gorge cut by water.
Luoyang Departure: Longmen Grottoes, White Horse Temple, Luoyang Museum and Erlitou, 3 Days 2 Nights
Three days from Luoyang, all of them about which layer of soil a thing came out of: Buddhas cut into a cliff at Longmen, a pagoda standing in a temple yard, a jade cup behind glass, and at Erlitou the rammed-earth footings of a palace that is four thousand years old.
Luoyang Departure: Wanxian Mountain, Guoliang Village and Baligou, 3 Days 2 Nights
Three days from Luoyang. Guoliang sits on top of the cliff, and the only road in is a 1,250-metre tunnel carved through the rock with thirty-five openings to the outside. Sleep in the village, then move south to Baligou, where the water drops straight off the cliff edge.
Luoyang Departure: Yuntai Mountain, Hongshi Gorge and Zhuyu Peak, 4 Days 3 Nights
Four days from Luoyang. Hongshi Gorge runs one way, a slot of red rock that lets you walk forward only. The ticket and shuttle pass last three days, so nothing is rushed: one day for the gorge, one for the waterfalls, and the last morning up the spiral tunnels to Zhuyu Peak at 1,308 metres.
