点评:For those who need practical information on this tourist site:
1. Transport: I stayed at one of the hotels along Non Nuoc beach and it took me just about 15 minutes’ walk to get to the entrance from my hotel. If you’re coming from the main tourist belt in Da Nang city, expect to pay about 140,000 to 150,000 for a one-way Grab car (depends on distance)
2. Entry points and fees: There are 3 ticket booths for the “mountain” entry (including all the caves except for one specific cave temple at the bottom) and all charge the same prices (40,000 Dong per adult including the caves; 15,000 Dong for one-way elevator to the middle section of the mountain – there is an elevator ticket booth up there selling tickets to go down as well).
Gate No. 1 - The ticket booth on the extreme left (when facing the mountain entrance) seems to be least crowded – this entrance only has access via stairs (no elevator here).
Gate No. 2 – This ticket booth on the extreme right is busier (with curt and unhelpful ticketing staff), as the elevator is just beside this booth (which sells both the entrance ticket AND one-way elevator ticket).
3rd ticket booth - just go a little further from Gate No. 2, to the right. This 3rd ticket booth (in blue) leads to stair-access entrance only.
There is a “fourth” booth, somewhere in between Gate No 1 and Gate No 2, which seems to sell separate tickets for entry to a specific cave temple only (Am Phu Cave? This cave temple is just behind this booth and you walk up there on a short flight of stairs of about 20 steps). I didn’t go to this cave (depicting images of hell?) so can’t give much details on this and unsure if this booth sells tickets to the mountains too.
3. Mountain navigation: The elevator only goes up to about 1/3 of the mountain’s full height. If you are reasonably fit and have good stamina, you probably won’t need the elevator. I bought one-way ticket to go up as I wasn’t sure how tough the climb would be. All the ticket booths sell the Marble Mountain maps but I didn’t bother with it. You can see large map displays located at various points of the mountains to find your way. I didn’t refer to those much and instead relied mostly on my instincts (and sometimes, just following the crowd!).
Like what many other reviewers have said, yes, many marble stone steps/broken rocks to climb and they can be slippery (shoe soles with good grip will help) but then again, I also saw others in flip flops or Croc sandals with seemingly no troubles at all!
If you need to take the elevator down at the end of your visit, you will have to retrace your steps back to the elevator (there’s only one) that will bring you down to Gate No 2. For me, as I began my visit from Gate No 2 (that is, from the elevator on the extreme right side of mountain), I simply walked westwards to visit the caves/temples/summit and then climbed the stairs down (on the extreme left side) to Gate No 1 for my exit. Or you could do it the other way - enter by climbing up from Gate No 1 and take elevator down to Gate No 2 for the exit.
4. Tips: (i) I went around noon on a weekday and spent about 3 hours there - it wasn’t too crowded then (probably most visitors were elsewhere having lunch or have left by then). It’s somewhat cloudy on the day of my visit so the heat was bearable (cool once inside the caves). Otherwise, go very early in the morning or late in the afternoon
(ii) Although I didn’t have a map with me, I did have a quick look on other reviewers’ pictures of the map BEFORE my visit to get some basic ideas of the route – this will save time and make the navigation a little easier
(iii) I like Linh Nham and Huyen Khong Caves the most (mysterious/amazing interior). If you’re fit and very determined, climb the summit for a wonderful 360 degree view of the surrounding
(iv) Give yourself enough time so that you can rest in between climbs and you don’t have to rush from one place to another. Finally, this is NOT a “must-see” place for your Da Nang visit but if you’re going to visit this site, keep your expectations low and you’ll enjoy the visit much more!
翻译:给那些需要了解该旅游景点实用信息的人:
1. 交通:我下榻在非水海滩附近的某家酒店,从酒店步行到景点入口仅需约15分钟。如果您从岘港市的主要旅游区出发,乘坐Grab单程车费预计在14万至15万越南盾左右(具体费用视距离而定)。入口与费用:“山体”区域的入口设有3个售票处(涵盖除山底一处特定石窟寺庙外的所有洞穴),所有售票处的价格均相同(成人票价为40,000越南盾,含所有洞穴参观;乘坐电梯前往山体中段的单程票价为15,000越南盾——该处亦设有电梯售票处,出售下山用的电梯票)。
入口编号。1 - 最左侧的售票处(面向山门时)似乎人最少——从这个入口进入只能走楼梯(没有电梯)。
2号入口 – 最右侧的售票处则比较拥挤(售票员态度冷漠且不予协助),因为电梯就在该售票处旁边(这里同时出售入场券和单程电梯票)。
第3个售票处 – 从2号入口继续向右走一点即可到达。这个第三个售票处(蓝色标识)仅通往需要走楼梯才能进入的入口。
在1号门和2号门之间的某个位置还有一个“第四个”售票处,似乎只出售进入某个特定石窟寺庙的门票(是安普洞吗?这个寺庙就在该售票处后方,沿着约20级台阶即可抵达)。我没有去过那个石窟(据说里面有描绘地狱景象的壁画?),因此无法提供太多相关细节,也不确定这个售票处是否也售卖前往山区的门票。3. 山地导航:电梯只能到达山体高度的大约三分之一处。如果你的体能不错且耐力良好,或许根本不需要乘坐电梯。由于不确定攀登的难度如何,我买了上山的单程票。所有售票处都出售大理石山的地图,但我没买。在山上的多个地点都设有大型地图展示牌,可以借助它们来辨别方向。我并没有过多参考那些建议,而是主要依靠自己的直觉行事(有时候,就是跟着大流而已!)。
正如许多其他评论者所说,确实有很多大理石台阶和碎石需要攀爬,而且这些地方很容易打滑(鞋底抓地力好的鞋子会很有帮助)。不过我也看到有人穿着人字拖或克罗克斯凉鞋上山,看起来也毫无困难!
如果你在游览结束后需要乘电梯下山的话……4. 你必须原路返回到那部唯一能将你带到2号门的电梯处。就我而言,由于我是从2号门开始参观的(也就是从山最右侧的电梯处进入),我只需朝西行走即可参观各个洞窟/寺庙/山顶,之后再沿着最左侧的楼梯下到1号门处离开。或者你也可以反着来——从1号门向上攀登进入,再乘电梯下到2号门处离开。提示:(i) 我是在工作日的中午去的,在那里待了大约3个小时——当时人不算太多(大概大多数游客都去别处吃午饭了,或者已经离开了)。我去的那天天气有些多云,所以并不太热(进入洞穴后甚至有些凉意)。否则的话,建议清晨或下午晚些时候再去。
(ii) 虽然我没带地图,。在前往游览之前,我确实快速浏览了其他游客上传的地图图片,以便对路线有个基本的了解——这样能节省时间,也能让导航变得稍微容易些。
(iii) 我最喜欢林聂洞和玄空洞(洞内的景象神秘又迷人)。如果你体力充沛且意志坚定,不妨登上山顶,那里能欣赏到四周360度的绝美景色。
(iv) 给自己留出充足的时间,这样在爬山途中可以休息一下,也不必匆忙从一个景点赶往另一个景点。最后,这里并非岘港之旅中“必去”的景点,但如果你决定前往,只要降低期望值,反而能享受更多乐趣哦!
