The National Day holiday has already begun — did you get your ticket? Have you booked your room?

If you are still dithering about where to go, take a look at Tianzhushan.

By day, climb Tianzhu Peak and watch the cloud sea surge and wondrous peaks crowd the sky; one breath of autumn wind leaves you fresh all over. By evening, return to the foot of the mountain and stay at the Wellness Centre, the Seven Fairies International Hotel or the Study Travel Camp. Enjoy a warm home-style meal, take a walk with your family, and look up to a quiet sky of stars. No rushing to shows, no long queues — sleep until you wake naturally, then wander into the mountains at your own pace. This is a National Day that is neither loud nor crowded, but just right.

Wellness Centre + two tickets · 399 yuan

Who it suits: those travelling with parents, and office workers who want to truly unwind.

The Qianshan Wellness Centre sits in Hutian Village, Longtan Township, cradled by mountains and water — a 'wellness paradise' hidden inside a natural oxygen bar.

Spend the day in the scenic area among mountains and clouds; come back in the afternoon for a walk along the mountain paths, breathing deeply in negative ions; and round off the evening with a lively game of cards or mahjong. For older family members, this is exactly how a holiday should be spent. If you want to give yourself a break in which you do absolutely nothing, this is just right too — mountain charm and wellness in one, and the undisputed best value in the package range.

Seven Fairies International Hotel + two tickets · 568 yuan

Who it suits: quality-seekers who want comfortable rooms and full facilities.

The Seven Fairies International Hotel sounds celestial from its name alone. Set at the foot of Tianzhushan on the only road to the scenic area, it is about a half-hour drive from the Tianzhushan Chazhuang Visitor Centre.

Built to five-star standards, it has 176 guest rooms together with an outdoor pool, a gym, games rooms and even a tennis court holding the title of National Tennis Training Base. Work up a sweat climbing by day and come back for a game of tennis in the evening — that is how a holiday ought to feel.

568 yuan covers two Tianzhushan tickets plus one night of five-star-standard accommodation. For a little over a hundred yuan more, you step up a level in comfort. Whether it is worth it is up to you.

Study Travel Camp + two tickets · 399 yuan

Who it suits: families with children who want to learn while they play.

The Tianzhushan Study Travel Base sits next to the Tianzhushan UNESCO Global Geopark Museum and is equipped with 18 themed activity rooms and 6 major themed venues, offering nearly 200 courses spanning geoscience, intangible cultural heritage, aerospace, technological innovation and more.

Children can become 'little geology guides', visiting the Yangxiaowu fossil site to see Palaeocene fossils and beginning a genuine geological expedition in the museum. 399 yuan covers two Tianzhushan tickets plus one night at the Study Travel Camp — one payment, double the fun of study travel and holiday combined.

Must-Read Before Booking

How to book: Search the 'Tianzhushan Tourism Official Platform' mini-programme on WeChat, enter the National Day stay-and-ticket package section, choose your room and place the order. The booking is complete once payment succeeds.

Important: During National Day, Tianzhushan operates a 'limited capacity, reservation, off-peak' policy, with a daily cap on visitors; once full, sales stop across all channels. If you bought a package on Douyin, call the official hotline 400-0556-900 immediately to reserve your check-in date — without a reservation you may arrive to find no room.

National Day accommodation is tight: buy first, reserve first, and once it is full it is gone.

One Last Word

Chances for the whole family to go out together are few and far between. Rather than scrolling at home while watching others stuck on the motorway, open the mini-programme now and lock in your National Day happiness in advance. See you at Tianzhushan this National Day.
