La Cresta del Dragón Verde es un paso espectacular que une el Pico Norte con el resto de los Picos.
Es un paso estrecho de unos 60cm de ancho que sube unas empinadas escaleras con acantilados a ambos lados y tan sólo las cadenas de los pasamanos para agarrarse , sobre todo cuando te cruzas con alguien .
Tienes suerte cuando hay niebla por debajo de la montaña , pues así no ves los precipicios
The Green Dragon Ridge is a dramatic pass that links the North peak with the rest of the Peaks.
It is a narrow passage of about 60cm in width, which rises some steep stairs with cliffs on both sides and only chains as handrails to grab to them , especially when you meet someone in the other direction .
You are lucky when there is fog below the mountain, thus you do not see the cliffs

El Pico del Sur es el más alto (2.160m) , pero en todos ellos las vistas son espectaculares

Nos pareció caro , pero la quinta montaña taoísta merece la pena

Before to go to Huashan we went to the Visitors Center , that is a modern two-storey building, where you can get the information you need , because they speak some English and that is the place where we organized and "payed" the entrance and transportation tickets to go to the mountains

My tip is simply to go. Its great, be prepared, but it is great. See the North Peak, climb to the others, see the good luck locks, see a Taoist temple, see the stream, use the gondola if you must. But, in general, just go.
See travelouge for more pics.

You should plan for at least 2-3 days to visit Huashan. Stay overnight in the mountain and watch the sunrise (this is popular among Chinese students travellers there).
Tour packages that start transporting you there from Xi'an in the morning and ushering you back down to the bottom in the late afternoon to have dinner in a few of the mountain resort's restaurant, or back to Xi'an. You only get around 3 hours to explore mountain routes, which is unsatisfactory to me.
Sometimes routes on the mountain can be jammed with slow human traffic, because people can walk only in a single file.
