💎 Insider Tips

⚡
Like Tianya, entry to Luhuitou is completely free; purchasing the optional return tram ticket helps skip the uphill walking trail.
⚡
Arrive around 6:15 PM to capture the sunset turning the sea orange before the modern skyline skyscrapers initiate their synchronized laser light display.
⚡
Look closely for the wild macaque monkeys that live along the upper ridge forests; ensure you keep your bags tightly sealed and avoid feeding them.
⚡
The summit houses a lovely open-air coffee deck serving chilled coconut drinks with unmatched views of Phoenix Island's towers.
